Lots of discussion about digital health records in the NHS today. Modernisation, and privacy. But here’s the thing — we DON’T need a massive new database. Here’s how we do it. 1/

'Code Complete' was written 3 decades ago to make key discoveries available to the average programmer and help them focus on the right things.

Hear @stevemconstrux and @jvgogh discuss the strategies that are still relevant today.

@mozilla This is crazy. I remember setting my alarm as a 16 yr old for 3am to start the arduous task of downloading the source code, without a hope in hell of actually being able to compile it.

I wrote a little bit about how to do deployment updates without serving errors in #Kubernetes.
Since I don't have a blog, I'll just tweet.

You have some pods, and maybe an load-balancer, too. You want to update the deployment. How to do this "best" in K8s today?

Today is a very special day because I finally get to share something amazing that @seakoz and I have been working on: Universal certificate rotation. It's an in-browser capability to rotate *any* certificate. I know that sounds impossible or even insecure but stick with me.

@TechEmails Meanwhile what eventually made the web an application platform was not weird Java applets but Microsoft's own API called xmlhttprequest

[Chris Munns @chrismunns]

A little over a decade ago at @etsy we wrote our own complex deployment system/tools. At some point in the mid 2010-2020 period I thought those days were done due to DevOps tools. I am still however seeing a majority of startups writing their own deployment tools. What gives? 1/

[Ollie Whitehouse @ollieatnowhere]

Pushed the days first #log4 #log4shell meta thread update:

- Log4j2 2.16.0 released
- Log4j1 vulnerable when used with JMSAppender
- Remote class loading exploit released
- Burp scanner plugin

Important:
We still aren't seeing deserialization exploits
