Linus doesn't have root access to our systems for several reasons. One of them is the fact that we get the actual source code, and not just a compiled blob doing "something". Another is the fact that they have at least some level of reviews wrt who can commit code, although this isn't perfect as the case with the University of Minnesota proved.

Npm on the other hand is much, much worse. Anyone can publish anything they want, and they can point to any random source code repository claiming that this is the source. If we look at how often vulnerable packages are discovered in eg. npm, I'd argue that the current level of trust and quality aren't sustainable, partly due to the potentially huge number of direct and transitive dependencies a project may have.

Unless you start to review the actual component you have no way to verify this, and unlike the Linux kernel there is no promise that anyone has ever reviewed the package you download. You can of course add free tools such as the OWASP Dependency Check, but these will typically lag a bit behind as they rely on published vulnerabilities. Other tools such as the Sonatype Nexus platform is more proactive, but can be expensive.

UK fighting hacking epidemic as Russian ransomware attacks increase – Cybercrime
This guy is a brain genius according to a subset of the web and he spends this much real estate on invermectin and blesses us with this gem:

“Mainstream medicine has reacted with slogans like ‘believe Science’. I don’t know if those kinds of slogans ever help, but they’re especially unhelpful here. A quick look at ivermectin supporters shows their problem is they believed Science too much.”

Then he quotes. Their. Tweets. to tell us the ACTUAL problem with this contingent.

Talk about unhelpful. My man has less expertise in abnormal psych than the average sex worker and conflates his ability to dissect standard issue science publications with expertise in sociology (Nate Silver suffers from similar delusions of grandeur, and also writes insufferable, unhelpful, overconfident political diagnoses). I’d rather he didn’t amplify what he published, and I think it was not worth his time.
How do you organize your Kindle Library?
Once you start getting into 100+ books, it becomes difficult to organize. A lot of people seem to use Collections, but I was wondering if there was anything else people use.

Steam bending was and is still used for mass-produced furniture: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No._14_chair

And there are also very interesting modern takes on bending wood such as compwood: http://compwood.com/processen/

The wood is heated and compressed longitudinally. Once cold it stays (super) bendable as long as it is still wet.

Hi All,

I am the Founder of DrapCode, a no-code platform to build custom web apps without writing any lines of code.

Introduction Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7JWzFWHNuA

Quick Overview of the platform: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bizu6v9k5Uc

It empowers non-coders/non-techies to build and launch full-fledged web applications without having the knowledge of programming. It also helps developers and digital studios/web agencies to quickly develop and deliver the web apps to their clients in a faster and cheaper way.

We are enabling users to build their custom web apps on DrapCode and if at any point of time they feel that they need better control on their apps, then they can host the apps on their infrastructure/servers, modify the code (if needed) and then continue their journey from there.

They will not have to start from scratch if they plan to move out for any reason. Infact, we will be going one step ahead and help them in migrating to the cloud platform of their choice.

Please feel free to ask any question or any feedback that you may have.

Happy to answer all the queries. Thanks!!
