Omg I’m sorry I’m just responding to your message, we accidentally created a world where you have to keep track of 15 messaging apps at all times and also it’s been a pandemic for two years and also also I have turbo brain fog due to said pandemic

I feel like we're all stuck in an unaired season of Silicon Valley 😫

Dear Medical Twitter: After 2+ years of saving the rest of us from misinformation, please let CS twitter return a tiny favor:

NYT did not make Wordle's words harder.

Your symptoms are valid (it feels harder), but your diagnosis from Twitter info is not.

if you claim your tokens were stolen but the blockchain says otherwise, i have to assume you're a malicious actor who's lying. that's trustless babee

what's that? a transaction can be illegitimate in some sense even though it's on a blockchain? then whAT THE FUCK IS THE POINT

um, stolen? what do you mean? they changed hands via a legitimate transaction. it's all recorded on the blockchain, which is 100% secure and immutable and trustless. where did "stolen" come into it? hundreds of people simply decided to transfer their tokens simultaneously

🎉 Today is my 5 year anniversary at @Okta! It's been quite the ride so far. 🚀

Why do I stick around?

- I can work from anywhere
- It pays well
- It's a fun gig

The @oktadev team is magnificent too! 🤩

A single malicious signature can rug *all* of your approved OpenSea NFTs. No need to sign an individual sell order for each one, as originally assumed.

This is how today's hacker stole 10 Azukis, 8 mfers, and 3 mutant apes in a single transaction, with a single sig.

There are simplifications you’ve been told (“sign this to approve the sale of 1 NFT”) that are actually dangerously broad (“sign this to trust the other person to take only 1 NFT”). A clever person noticed the difference & violated the trust. A better system would prevent this.

I work in software security and unfortunately my experience is “most people will be unable to understand or spot these traps”. Fall back on your human instincts - if you’re feeling greedy, scared, or a rush of excitement, stop and think. Those are a good sign you’re being conned.

What i'm hearing is that information is not reliable simply because it is on a blockchain, which would seem to be a rather large problem for the entire concept

I mean it's not funny that the average user is getting scammed like that, but it is funny that the people running the scam got scammed themselves

Kudos to @aaronpk on the livestream Sunday about Youtube's "broken" copyright/ownership claim process. Well worth the watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLK2re0LfrQ

OAuth? Oh, yeah! Does that sound familiar? No, it’s not a movie from the late ‘80s. OAuth is a carrier-free telecommunications service that enables users to access Home Phone, Mobile Phone and VoIP services anywhere in the US without additional charges.
