With cloudflare being down, and as a result, most things I use being down, I came here to say hi 🤭 I guess I will use other AIs than chatgpt today!

Everyone talking about npm hacks. But is it really more attacks or just more visibility?

Maybe attackers are piling on npm
Maybe the ecosystem is just easier to monitor
Maybe sloppy practices make it an easy catch

What nags me more: silence in PyPI, RubyGems, Maven.
No attacks, or no one looking?

To all of the people pushing hard to coin the term “vibe security,” the joke is on you. Security has always been about vibes. 😆

Most say ‘think like a hacker,’ but infosec fights adversaries with goals, not curiosity. Real defense means blending hacker creativity with adversary realism.

Its funny how current ai tooling plays out and a few years ago self help courses use to use this same tactic. We are giving you tool if you dont use it properly it will not give you result. So user pays you for stuff and if it doesnt work its their problem not yours.

Why i love chiptunes. Short story

My first computer had lots of limitations like mp3 files could be played but limited ram and buffer meant it will stop after few seconds for buffering.
Wav was too big file size to store on tiny disks
Speakers were not great;
Midi came as life saver & left a mark

It has happened multiple times now. Every single time i use ai based coding assistents i am reminded that they are lowest cost typing assistents thst are coding lingo aware which means most proper logics are to be defined by me and left alone their own coding has very convaluted logic
