Due to the 2 critical PHP vulnerabilities I have isolated 1 of my servers and have shut down one backend app. Users won't notice it. I predict that haveibeenpwnd will be busy coming week and rotating secrets and passwords will be good practice. What any individual can do: - rotate passwords if they are stolen - minimize the reuse of passwords - make sure for critical apps that you use 2FA. - and make sure your e-mailadres that you login with the everywhere has a different password then the apps and sites u make an account. Just to be clear: Even if you did everything right, the website or app you are using might not and get your user/password stolen.

Quick question: what time of day do you do your best building?

BitGo, the NYSE-listed custodian with $65.2B in assets on its platform in the quarter to June 30, has added Kaspa mainnet to its coin list and developer SDK. Its Kaspa module supports key generation and MPC signing. @kaspaunchained

I just had to hit the brakes on my coding agents. 🕵️ I noticed my agents were chasing edge cases and were getting into a loop to fix symptoms instead of finding a solution that prevents them all. 🪄 Yesterday I had said yes to a certain line in a PR whose consequences I didnt understand. That particular line that then got referred to in other PRs as C14 and found its way throughout multiple PRs where multiple agents were working on. Looking back it could just as well be called C4. 💣 I noticed things becoming more and more complex. I even accepted some I saw because I didnt mind them closing some unlikely events, but then I saw more and more of these, so I stopped. 🛑 So now I am working for 4 hours already to map the situation: where did it start and how far is it in? yesterday and it spread to multiple files adding 2-3k LOC that the product will work fine without. 📝 Next thing was formulating what action to take: in this case, which for me is both fixing the high-maintenance low-value code aka removing it, without disturbing other code. And also to harden the agent instructions (they broke standing rules with these actions) and increase the clarity of the path to take going forward. ➡️ I think I need 2-3 more hours to have this all done and then I can proceed where I left off last night. 🌛 It feels these errors are slowing me down a lot, and they do, but its needed to develop code that can be scaled and maintained for a long time. 💻 Fun thing: when I was searching for the cause, the agents kept telling me "YOU approved of PR so and so" or "these were YOUR instructions"... etc... That always gives a nice feeling. 😒 So nothing really changed between the early days in the 1990s and now: the problem still exists between the chair and keyboard. 🪑🫈⌨️ #PEBCAK
