Oh man this is going to suck.

We were looking for an authentication setup to allow for SSO and one of the front runners was Twilio. They have a meeting with us next week and I am not looking forward to this second hand embarrassment.

Back and mah day, we had lead in our paint and lead in our hearts and were just fine, if you ignore all our wild violent behavior!

Women are from Venus check mate.

This is also assuming the Genie isn’t a spiteful PoS that will just kill the Asker. There’s no rule against that.

Nah. Our stupid ass government only recently started hiring hackers who smoke weed. But even then, there’s too much stupid red tape.

“Both the NSA and the DOD have a ton of talented hackers, yet when it comes to actually performing disruptive cyber operations, for some reason we as a country are just frozen and scared,” Caceres says. “And that needs to change.”

He points to ransomware actors, mostly based in Russia, who extracted more than a billion dollars of extortion fees from victim companies in 2023 while crippling hospitals and government agencies. North Korea–affiliated hackers, meanwhile, stole another $1 billion in cryptocurrency last year, funneling profits into the coffers of the Kim regime. All of that hacking against the West, he argues, has been carried out with relative impunity. “We sit there while they hack us,” Caceres says.

And also

It also doesn’t help that the Republican Party have outright praised Russia, which means they’re already inside.

I type my search into the post and then usually some kind person finds me a link and calls me a asshole

How did she hurt you?

Gonna sound racist but deal with it.

I constantly meet asian developers (Singapore , India, China, etc) with this edgelord personality. They come to American conferences and meetups, say some wild sexist shit, and someone has to politely let them know not to.

Some backtrack. Some apologize. Some literally freeze up and pretend like it didn’t happen.

Can the president declare them traitors and no longer fit for duty, thus ousting them physically?

Acupuncturist: Hold my beer while I open your 8 gates of Ki

I dunno. Steam did it well enough. I was buying cheap games for years. I could get a kick ass GOTY game for like $5 while GameStop was still selling it used on consoles for $20.

You saying you think it’s weird if I pulled you aside and showed you my little boy’s meat sausage I don’t understand

I’d love to honestly believe that. But I still wouldn’t risk ever doing a BYOD with a company that forced me to install anything on my personal devices.

Both sides.

I constantly call out juniors who do things like ignore warnings, completely unaware that the warning is going to cause serious tech debt in a few months.

But Ive also unfortunately shrugged after seeing hundreds of warnings because to update this requires me to go through 3 layers of departments and we’re still waiting on these six other blockers.

Pick and choose I guess.

Peak humanity

Lemmy: why aren’t people using Linux? It’s so easy

Also Lemmy: webp huh?

Lemmy folk forgetting that not every person cares enough to switch OSes.

If you ever work tech support even at a basic level, you’ll see. It’s not even boomers or genZ. I helped a grown ass human who was my age at 40yo how to install a Firefox extension.

That could have been me a few years ago. I was still using teamviewer up until 2020 to connect to my desktop from my laptop. It’s so handy.

Fortunately it was when I started learning about open-source solutions

Man you are really sucking the financial industry dick

You get a kickback for defending big banks?

Your bank isn’t a fan of them either

Fortunately there’s THOUSANDS of banks and Credit unions.
