@baloniusthunk@kendonnelly@MattInformed As a SWE, let me tell you there is nothing to worry about just browsing the web. If you host a site that runs PHP, then yes you should worry. Otherwise, this is all just fear mongering. Take all the usual precautions you would when browsing the web regularly.
@baloniusthunk@kendonnelly@MattInformed That's talking about a collection of different exploits. Still doesn't explain why thr PHP exploit specifically would compromise your browser. Wordpress site are vulnerable bc they WP uses PHP, but that doesn't mean visiting a WP site will somehow infect your device.
@kendonnelly@MattInformed If a website backend can infect a user's computer simply from being visited, that'd be a vulnerability on the browser itself. Don't see how a PHP vulnerability would play into that.
@Aella_Girl You're hyper logical. Most people aren't. Jealousy is somewhat irrational, and trying to fit it into a perfectly logical framework just doesn't work. Understanding WHY you don't understand, is probably the closest you can get to understanding the mentality.
@YashHustle_22 It already writes better code than me. It doesn't always make the right choices though. That's something that will always require human intervention, unless it's a low stakes project.
@JArminMeister@thecavemommy Sounds a bit humiliating, but they could have sample seats to sit on in the check in area to see if you overflow. Similar to the carry on size checker.
