It’s a PR issue not a legal one.

This draft spec was eventually published as RFC 9562. Compared to the previous spec it adds versions 6, 7, and 8, plus best practices guidance.

Basically, there are a bunch of UUID alternatives that arose to fix the problem that UUIDs are bad for use as database keys in large tables (here’s the perspective of MySQL experts Percona). A bunch of these alternatives are actually linked from the RFC, which I haven’t seen done before. Version 7, in particular, is meant to address this use case.

Successful malls have an Apple Store, Tesla, and Louis Vuitton, which tells us something about who can still afford to shop there.

Apparently there’s a recipe on that page. Here’s the same page without the crud: https://www.justtherecipe.com/?url=https://houseofnasheats.com/brazilian-lemonade-limeade/

True, it’s a private (not local) IP. It could easily have connected to a remote system, as their proof-of-concept did.

This code execs cmd.exe and pipes output to and from a hardcoded IP. That’s pretty weird. What’s running on that IP? How does the extension know something is there?

It looks like VS Code has no review — human or automated — or enforced entitlement system that would have stopped this or at least had someone verify it was legit.

Are you sure about that? Dial tone is a sound you hear before dialing, not the sound you hear when you press a key.

Their findings included an extension that opens an obvious reverse shell.

Any USB-C headphones work.

Imagine the bed is a clock. The 12 o’clock position is at the head — I don’t think anything else makes sense. That makes it unambiguous.

The positions are 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock.

Did you mean White Castle?

This report is from 2016. It’s mainly of historical interest.

Ad-based apps on your phone.

It’s been done already, you say? Not like this: the front-facing camera is used to detect eye gaze. A counter on the screen starts at 30 seconds and only counts down while you are looking at the screen. If you look away, the counter, and the ad, pauses. The app doesn’t continue until you’ve watched the entire ad.

Another senior dev here, one of those weirdos who likes light mode. Sometimes. VS Code’s light mode is blinding to me, and I never use it. But Nova’s is beautiful and I prefer it. It depends how well the app renders fonts and colors. The oversaturated colors used in most apps are a big problem.

It increases the risk of birth defects slightly but not as much as people seem to think.

a single first-cousin marriage entails a similar increased risk of birth defects and mortality as a woman faces when she gives birth at age 41 rather than at 30

AI generated image. For example notice the towel bar goes through the glass. Great concept though.

Edit: Someone else made the same comment just before I did :-) so I’ll add another observation. This immediately looked like AI, but it’s well-done. For example, the tiles are straight. The overflow drain looks wrong but isn’t so wrong that it’s definitely AI; the faucet does not extend far enough and is unusual for a tub, but could be real; there appears to be some kind of thing in the bottom of the tub, but that could be argued away; the positioning of the tub related to the shower is too close, but theoretically possible. Without the obvious mistake of the towel bar it might be hard to convince people this is AI, even if it clearly has that “look” to it.

The ?? operator?

It’s nice that this is compatible with Redis clients, and even Redis cluster operations. But I wish they would take this opportunity to make scaling more ergonomic. The Redis cluster mode is a pain to use because certain commands don’t work on a cluster (and developers don’t seem to realize this, leading to implementation issues).

Didn’t vote for Putin.

This doesn’t sound like a serious problem for a company like Google. They can afford to solve it by brute force — just put a Wi-Fi hotspot in every single room.
