Russians just now deliberately hit a cafe and killed 48 civilians, wounding other 6 people in the village of Groza, Kupyansky District, Kharkiv Oblast.

There is a 6-year-old boy amongst those killed. The number of victims is still counting.

@alexbunardzic Often, that is the consequence of a blame culture stemming from poor interactions/collaboration between product managers and engineers. After all, it is easier to say: "I did exactly what you asked me to", instead of listening to blame for not guessing the expectations right.

@Razer @RazerSupport When is a customer-serviceable component not actually customer-serviceable? Why can I not replace NVME M.2 drive with bad sectors on my in-warranty RZ09-0409CW53 without sending the whole computer - which is the only computer I have - to you? Ridiculous!

@muppetkeeper @AsktheCoventry The new login functionality was there before the incident and worked fine - I log in there a few times a week.

@CoventryBS No, they aren't operating normally. Have been trying to log in for the last 20 minutes - no success.

@craiu Without going into details, my guess is that it is because reversing Golang is more difficult than many other compiled languages due to function return conventions. The key tools of the trade - IDA and Hexrays - do not support reversing golang executables as easily as c/c++.

@VessOnSecurity @jeremiahg I would love any references to this research as well. The official position in the UK is that there is no credible research on the effectiveness of masks against COVID-19.

@VessOnSecurity Glad that you think stuff in Linux repositories doesn’t come from Github or that adding shit from Github to an OS repository makes it any better. 🙄

@VessOnSecurity No problem, albeit pyenv enables you to install any version of python in your home directory (key point!), without touching the system version of python whatsoever. I’ve done it many times and it works a treat. Good luck!

[Maksym Schipka @maksyms]

@VessOnSecurity Could you use Anaconda or pyenv to install the right version of python in your local home directory and use virtualenv to execute HPFeeds with the right version of Python?
