Xcode is distributed and released over the AppStore and can be rev-ed at any frequency, independently of the OS; Apple's update model not does prevent an expedient update.

Perhaps the main cause for delay is the associated QA efforts to make sure that other components in the stack which depend on git don't break in the case that git has broken binary compatibility (i.e. changed its public interface).

I disagree that it is clickbait. There is a schema people use for announcing security vulnerabilities ("<issue> in <software> version <number> through <bigger number>"), and the RCE issue was recent, so to those familiar it was clear that it was exposition rather than disclosure.

For those unfamiliar, now you know
According to https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-6554eff6...

"Notes about this update:
Security fix for CVE-2016-2315, CVE-2016-2324 (by updating to 2.5.5)."

So looks like they have backported the security fixes
As a designer I think the design is really bad. It may work pretty well from a functional point of view, but the readability could be improved dramatically with just a few typographical adjustments. If you gave this page to a designer and said, change nothing but the font, font size, colour, padding, and margins you could keep the functionally the same but it make much more comfortable on the eyes and easier to decipher.
Building things. Above all, it is the best way to learn. Plenty of sites/resources offer you canned exercises that help you gain familiarity with some concepts, syntax, etc. But nothing beats taking an idea you can express and grasp in human terms and turning it into a program. Here are some starter ideas I give just about every new/aspiring dev I work with because just about everyone knows how they work since they were kids (well, at least in the US):

- Tic Tac Toe

- Rock Paper Scissors

- memory/matching game

You can easily ratchet up the complexity once you have these working. Tic Tac Toe can be turned into Connect Four, for example. Similarly, you can increase the complexity of a memory/matching game by increasing the board size, or use what you learn there to create a rudimentary game of Go Fish.

There are some more typical types of things to build that feel less playful, of course. Build a to-do app. Or a blog. Or a simple chat/messaging program. Don't over complicate it. Keep it as simple as you can to learn what matters here—CRUD operations with a database, client-server interaction, templating, MVC, and so on.
Oh but you can become even lazier:

function compare(list, val){
return list.some(el => el === val);
}

Read the documentation (preferably from MDN [1]) for Array methods. You'll get your "laziness" to the next level: .filter(), .some(), .every(), .reduce(), .concat() [vs .push()], etc.

ifconfig is still used on BSD and, most importantly, MacOS X. Also, the Linux replacement for ifconfig is ip from iproute2, and that was made by the guy who did Linux QoS. He sort of sucks at usability.

For example, `ifconfig eth0 down` becomes `ip link set dev eth0 down` and `ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.2` becomes `ip add add 192.168.1.2/24 brd + dev eth0`; I had to look these up to make sure I had the correct syntax.

Okay, the actual command is `ip address add` and not `ip add add`, but it allows extreme abbreviation at the expense of discoverability.
Do you think this website product has a market?

On my Chromebook, a linux system, the root filesystem is mounted read only. To modify a file in /usr/bin I would need to activate developer mode then remount it rw. I expect this is probably something similar and done for similar reasons.

The big market isn't developers but end users who have no idea how to protect themselves from real threats and who don't use git. And for them sandboxing, signed executables, verified boots and other measures make life far better.

If you are a developer using a Mac you most likely use brew or some sort of vm/container system anyway.

Ask a provider like GitHub and Heroku which git protocol they prefer: SSH or HTTPS.

The answer is HTTPS.

Managing an SSH server with millions of customer pubkeys is a pain. Python/twisted and Go have decent SSH implementations but there are quirks and side effects a plenty.

Shells are scary. You have to be very careful about how you execute the program on the remote side of the pipe. Shell command parsing and escaping is gnarly.

Windows...

HTTPS with basic auth headers is much easier to scale.

The one gotcha is that it took a while for HTTP git to get "smart" and offer as efficient transport as SSH with access to a .git dir.
> Operating systems kind of suck at it.

Sure, but they usually have more resources than programming language teams. Consider all the programming languages on your machine. Can you trust they all did the timezone, with all its nuances, correctly?

Consider something simpler - the trig functions. I've noticed time after time that many language libraries get it wrong, and this is with decades of development. Errors are usually in the form of precision that is lower than it should be, and poor handling of special values like NaN and infinity.

The situation with that is so erratic that with the D programming language we'd write our own trig implementations rather than use the C library ones.
They say questions should be "about real problems people face" but that's not quite true.

- You can post rhetoric questions where you already now the answer ( http://stackoverflow.com/help/self-answer ).

It shouldn't matter whether the question was based on a real situation, or if the story was just made up for "motivating" the question [1]. I often (> 50% of the time) make up or change the backstory for my SO posts, to prevent people from asking "But what is your real problem", "What have you tried", and so on, and because I want just a simple answer to my question goddamnit.

> This is actually about blasting OS X for not having updated versions of software.

No it's not, it's blasting OS X for shipping software with a known remote execution vulnerability, and not allowing the user to easily upgrade that software themselves due to new OS-wide security policies.
It's really a moot point as this was AND still is a common problem no matter the OS. I fail to see any releases of any OS that's secure out of the box.
The 'robber barons' had enough power to get the police and national guard deployed to violently put down strikes and to protect employees working during strikes. None of these CEOs have anywhere near that kind of influence.

This has been stretched too far. Remember, if they are even remotely good, they will know their value. Engineering is what engineers do, that's the basic requirement. Without healthy compensation, good luck retaining. They can always be more compassionate towards hobby projects or open source.

Hmm, wait, it's Git-58, not Git-63.

Edit:

OK, Xcode 7.2 security notes mentions Git vulnerability CVE-2015-7082 (older than the ones in questions), and Xcode 7.3 doesn't mention any fixed vulnerabilities in Git, so I guess it's vulnerable and NOT patched.

Yeah, I'd call it vernacular rather than brutalist.
HN is bigger than /r/programming. The subject matter is broader, and there are more submissions. Getting to the front page here is harder.

Second, new posts aren't even ranked before they get some upvotes, so they only appear on the "new" page. Not everyone looks at "new". The crowd that promote new stuff to the front page is not the same crowd that upvote stuff that's already on the front page. Some apparent randomness could come from this difference.

The issue is not with people who strike it lucky in one year, the issue is people who invest in multi-year projects and then receive the payoff in a short time.

I've shipped two apps with GPUImage and have found it to be very fast (when used properly) and incredibly capable. The biggest issue in GPUImage 1 was correctly setting up the filter chain; an incorrectly configured chain seemed to be the primary cause of issues around performance and output (or lack there of).

The new API is way more concise and super clear. Particularly love the use of blocks for configuration groups, as it makes preset behaviour more portable and easily defined (say, for a Instagram-style app).

Great work Brad, this is a much-loved framework and it's great to see the changes in v2.

It is too late for there to be an expedient update from Apple. The vulnerability was disclosed to oss-security over a month ago, on March 15[0]. SUSE had a patch out the next day[1]. By March 24, Debian, Ubuntu, Red Hat, CentOS and Oracle had all issued fixes.[2]

Julia is getting plenty of attention. It's pretty obvious at this point that Julia is destined to eventually be a major player in some fields.
