The bug is like a joke. On Alpine Linux, type 257 to 1024 characters of anything and you get root. 💀

Hot takes after AI: - Mobile can be built natively for both platforms; you don't require a framework to mix both platforms' logic anymore. - Go instead of Node. The performance and memory gains are significant. And I mention Go instead of Rust in most projects.

- Workflow is the key to quality and speed. Nowadays, it is easier than ever to build tools around it. Code-Forge is my solution for my workflow. - Testing is cheaper than ever; good professionals understand the necessity of good testing now that code is becoming less important.

- Improve your soft skills; communication and management are now the new gold. You're making more decisions than ever; get better at them. - At this time, look for good people looking for growth; share the love for good behaviors. Teach and learn at the same time.

AI has changed our entire workflow. Code is no longer the leverage it once was; taste and workflow are. I’ve learned so much from this experience and built tools that help me work faster.

I love this kind of transparency.

Your Inertia pages can now update themselves in real time. ⚡️ Mark a prop as live and connect it to a broadcast event. Whenever that event fires, Inertia refreshes just that prop, without polling. Perfect for order statuses, unread counts and dashboards.

So @Ubuntu still hasn't patched this open hole on any Ubuntu server on the public internet that lets anyone take it over We might just have to switch all our servers over to Debian in this new post-AGI time of rapid cybersecurity hacks which require just as rapid patching Slowpokes will be left behind chalmovsky.com/posts/wtf-ubu…
This is why I said you want your VPS ports all closed Then only let it be accessible inside your Tailscale for SSH and via a Cloudflare Tunnel to receive web traffic Any Linux box can be taken over with just a single TCP port exposed to the internet now A stop gap is disabling MPTCP on your VPS now but even better is not having any public ports exposed!

Hard to overstate how big of a deal this is. tl;dr — ANY unpatched Linux server with even a single TCP port exposed to the internet (say for HTTP or SSH) and MPTCP active (default for many Go web servers) is vulnerable to complete takeover.

Does anyone know how long it takes to get an app's first review on the App Store @AppStore?

Okay, shipping now is better than never, but good architecture separates good programmers from bad ones. In @condomera, we need to provide granular permissions to different users in different parts of a tenant. The existing solutions couldn't support this by default...
