Thanks - last time I looked at npbackup it didn't support macOS! I'll have her give it a go. Relica looks neat, but at that point I'd either suggest she uses one of the Borg tools or write a simple wrapper for her to trigger

I really like restic, and am personally happy to use it via the command line. It's very fast and efficient! However, I do wish there was better tooling / wrappers around it. I'd love to be able to set something simple up on

Can I add "trailing commas are invalid" to the list?

Gitea Ltd's stance seems to be that it does "custom development" support contracts.[0] It may be a matter of perspective whether you consider this "open-core" or "contract work." See also their clarificati

Thanks for this link - I'm amazed to see it even has an approximation for my city based on buildings (Detroit.) This is really useful tool for photography. On Android, I also use Sun Surveyor to determine when the sun is hitting the ri

Your last paragraph and comment down-thread I think discounts both the many ways the legal system and drug use are entangled, and the reality of how job hiring works. It has been my anecdotal observation that it is more common for small, lo

This looks like a ridiculous strawman's argument. For example, there's a large difference between stealing food from a produce stand (which I would certainly do if the alternative was to starve) and "carjacking people."

Thanks - but this sounds like an email 2FA flow, not a magic link. A magic link is a link a user clicks in their browser, that lands them on the appropriate service, where the one-time code is part of the URL. The service consumes the token

by radlad 3y ago
Can you explain how you would phish a user with a magic link? Since the service is generating a one-time code, and sending it directly to the user's email inbox, I am not sure how an attacker would intercept the code.

Wireguard also uses ChaCha20-Poly1305, but I am not sure it's relevant? I believe that attack is specific to SSH: "The attack exploits weaknesses in the specification of SSH paired with widespread algorithms, namely ChaCha20-Poly1

Ruby has had a huge decline in the past ten years, IMO. Also, note that TypeScript is tracked separately from Javascript, which is likely part of its decline. I wouldn't be surprised if JS backends are ultimately declining as well (per
