seems dramatic but ok

what appears to be a screenshot of the interview

And what song is that?

McCartney: It is a cursed song, and unites all who hear it not in concord but in servitude. (highlighted) Some say it can only truly be sung with a forkëd tongue and a throat scarred by hot coals. (/highlighted) Nonetheless, in my foolish youth, I thoughtlessly attempted to capture the power of that melody. Of course, lacking both the careful preparation and the heedless abandon which may lead to a fruitful encounter with the dark forces of Hell, that unholy might was turned back upon me and mine. All which has withered in my life, all the lamentations of yesteryear and those yet to come, I lay at its feet.

Okay. Does it have a name?

McCartney: Maxwell’s Silver Hammer.

Android only permits the currently focused app and keyboard to read the clipboard. However, sensitive data often lingers around in the clipboard for a while and privacy invasive apps can read it. Android shows a notice for apps reading clipboard content set by other apps but by then it's too late.

Lots of Web Crypto API functions return ArrayBuffer objects. Typed arrays are backed by these buffers. When a typed array’s `.set()` method (the thing that copies values between typed arrays) is passed an array buffer, should it… A) throw a TypeError B) just copy the bytes C) quietly do nothing

Hey chat is it good when your security audit recommends this?

Item from the "Recommendations" section of the security audit report which reads: "Consider temporarily pausing the XChat feature to prioritize addressing the identified security concerns. We are aware of several high-priority vulnerabilities that require the team's attention. We have separately provided X with long-term recommendations to remediate these high-priority issues. Addressing these security gaps will help protect both your users and your company's reputation."

In an old ad for board game Scattergories in Spain a player was shown flouncing out while anothet said “OK, we’ll accept ‘octopus’ as a pet”. “Aceptamos pulpo” has now entered the language in the meaning of “that’s a bit of a stretch but let’s go with it just for the sake of argument”.

Yuck. Meta apps listen on localhost on Android so that tracking scripts can talk to apps, and Meta can monitor your browsing and tie it to identity. Why is that allowed? www.theregister.com/2025/06/03/m...

Are you like me, always double-checking `git status` before doing a `git reset --hard` to set a branch to some state when starting from a working tree that’s *supposed* to be clean? `git reset --keep` exists and does the same thing in that situation, but safer! 🎉 I’ve somehow just never seen it.

A growing number of apps are using the Play Integrity API to enforce installation from the Play Store. This is clearly highly illegal anti-competitive behavior. It doesn't impact GrapheneOS users installing apps with the sandboxed Play Store but does impact other install sources.

Missed out on the #AdventOfCode day 24p1 leaderboard because of a loop-varying variable in a closure. Kind of my fault for overlooking a common issue, but in many languages that are not Python, this would not have happened, and this isn’t the first day either. I should probably stop using Python. :(
