Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Probably the most sweat-inducing user input verification code in history.
2·5 days agoI was deathly afraid it wasn’t as clever as I thought. One however does one’s best.
100%. It’s already centered.
Phew. I don’t smoke, so I guess I’m safe.
That’s one of the best terrible movies I’ve ever seen.
I really like using gnome DE. No software is perfect, and no user interface will suit everyone’s user case though.
The gnome project however has some members that are quite opinionated to the point of being hostile to any criticism or even just opposing opinions.
Isn’t this shot from the second film on the highway?
We have a NeatBoard that’s configured for Zoom. So our stand ups are in front of this TV thing and it works well for us.
Then again, our stand ups are short and to the point. We’re closer to kanban than scrum.

7·12 days agoDehumanization
Thank you for pointing that out explicitly. I was entirely baffled by this whole x-files thing until then.
It makes perfect sense that they’d be dehumanizing people like this.

Linux@lemmy.ml•What reasons do people have for disliking SELinux?
8·12 days agoIt surprises me. Rather it’s not SELinux it’s userland stuff that reports the wrong error.
Say I try to mount a directory into a podman container and try to read a file. I get some variety of file not found (it’s right there, I can see it) or permission denied error (its permissions are 777) but in reality its label is wrong.
That is 100% comedy gold.
I would have happily told your to 302 see other meeting room.
Also known as induced demand. Most of a thing drives more demand for that thing.
Which means the app was crap. Rather the rules it used to validate a valid name are garbage.
Usually because someone tried to be too strict. E.g. names are space delimited A-Za-z strings, rather than just accepting any old Unicode string and safely processing it (e.g. with an SQL prepared statement).
I’ve had websites reject email addresses with one of the newish TLD’s because someone decided they new how to validate an email address (it’s more a more flexible spec than you might think).
That’s conforming (to what ever criteria). Send me a UTF-16 string of at most 100 code points. Send me a 7-bit ASCII string of only A-Z0-9. Reject anything that doesn’t comform.
sanitizing is trying to clean an input. That’s “lemme just double escape some special characters” or stripping/replacing/encoding characters or truncating strings, coercing types. Don’t do this, your sanitization code will have bugs or edge cases.
If they were valid they wouldn’t be rejected.




That’s because China is at least consistent with their evil (and final warnings etc), the US is unreliable or capricious: that’s a bigger threat.
