Cloud apps for Android are useless. Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Photos - all useless. Can't select a wide range of files or a single folder to backup, half of the uploads fail for no reason. I wish I'd left my raspberry pi online at home, so I could SFTP to it.

What a brilliant blog post, I got it working in under 5mins with no API keys or anything. Supports max 8 places though.

autistic me: "..do we need to solve TSP?"
gf: "what??"
me: "hold on a sec"
*googles "TSP Google Maps"*

@EmmaBostian that's why queues are evil and should be dropped

This is very concerning- we are seeing evidence of significant changes in the brain even among people with relatively mild COVID-19. This study was in 46-80 yr olds, and many would've been healthy. We urgently need to understand the impact of COVID-19 in younger age groups too.

@CubicleApril This never happens if you are careful and use safeguards. I recommend to use git tag a lot to save work before doing a complicated operation like rebase, do sanity checks after such operations with 'git diff' and such, use reflog to go back to a previous state, etc.

The horror when you enter interactive rebase but forgot to set EDITOR=vim

Introducing #FPVI and #SCSB, two new transient execution vulnerabilities based on previously unexplored causes of Machine Clear. See https://t.co/EbIEKg5T4p. We use FPVI to read arbitrary memory in Firefox via attacker-controlled and transiently-injected floating-point results:

This week I'm delivering two new talks for #LISA21, for a total of 235 slides: BPF Internals and Computing Performance: On the Horizon - my thoughts on the future. I'm also looking forward to meeting attendees online https://t.co/7nzCfOobsy

I'm back from a week at my mom's house and now I'm getting ads for her toothpaste brand, the brand I've been putting in my mouth for a week. We never talked about this brand or googled it or anything like that.

As a privacy tech worker, let me explain why this is happening. 🧵

In 2011, RSA was hacked by Chinese spies, who stole the "seed" values used to generate codes on SecurID 2fa tokens, shocking the security world. Now, after 10 years, the NDAs of the staff involved have expired. This is the untold story they shared with me: https://t.co/hRLfuDCFo1
