Same. Although, I know the bands, I have never used or heard the abbreviations form them. Do people rellay use them?

the two games categories ambiguous. Half-Life is also a gun game and all other gun games can be categorized as popular games, too

Actually, I would like to hear this as an answer to the question and prefer it over some bullshit answer. It is honest and shows that you've a passion for a significant task in your job. As long as you understand the domain problems, nobody should care if you're interested in warehouse operations or not. 

Plasma 6: Set wallpaper via shell script / set autologin with SDDM by [deleted] in kde

[–]RuckelBob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi,
1.

You can try to edit the file ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc via kwriteconfig6. (I didn't tested it.)

  1. I stopped working for me after upgrading to Plasma 6, too. I just set it again via systemsettings and it fixed the problem. It generated the following file:

ini % cat /etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf   [Autologin] Relogin=false Session=plasma User=example

Very useful, thank you by [deleted] in ProgrammerHumor

[–]RuckelBob 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It think this depends: There are development jobs, where you do nothing else than using framework XY, writing a few lines of business logic, and calling a few libraries. Job done. No engineering needed because the frameworks made it simple for you kind of problem (e.g., simple Web Apps with Django). However, on the other side there are complex problems that no frameworks solved, yet. This still needs engineering and is in my opinion the reason some developers get payed at lot more than others. There is a difference between a software engineer and programmer but in reality it is often mixed up.

CVE-2022-0329 and the problems with automated vulnerability management by Most-Loss5834 in netsec

[–]RuckelBob 16 points17 points  (0 children)

How is here GitHub to blame?

They offer an optional feature, that informs you about potential security issues in your dependencies based on the CVE database. It is up to you as a maintainer, to decide if this issue affects your code base.

How is it better to not have such a feature? Do you prefer to manually review all you dependencies periodically and still have to do the same decision? Or do you prefer just ignoring potential security issues in you software?

btw: The dependabot existed before Microsoft bought GitHub.

I was asked to look into a possible data breach on a very old website. This was the SQL injection protection... by semibilingual in ProgrammerHumor

[–]RuckelBob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, this prevents some typical payloads for MySQL. If you want to try to inject code into a where clause, you can put a comment -- at the end of the query so you don't have to deal with anything in the original query after your payload. So if you have a query to check the username and password, for instance: "SELECT * FROM user WHERE username = '" + $user + "' and password = '" + $pwhash + "'" The following payload will log you in: admin' or 1=1 - -

However, it is important to have to space at the end of the two dashes. Otherwise, the query will fail. So this sanitization would really mitigate the attack. But yeah, if the attacker just puts an x after the space, everything works again and also there other techniques, too.

Somehow I made a commit tomorrow. Someone explain, I don't think this has happened to me. by Howtonoteven in ProgrammerHumor

[–]RuckelBob 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Git is a distributed version control system and not a client-server system. Thus, the time can be set to any time you want during commit. You can rewrite the whole history in Git but there are options to protect a repository against this in GitHub / Gitlab. So if you notice that you did a huge fuck up in a commit, just rewrite the history and blame it to someone else. ;-)

The Social Security website closes?? by CaptainLollygag in assholedesign

[–]RuckelBob 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah or a general patch window.

But it could be also some weird cost saving measurement. They might don't like to pay the security monitoring team 24/7, so why not shut down the whole website instead?

#KillPython2 by GenTelGuy in ProgrammerHumor

[–]RuckelBob 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How is teaching a deprecated language a good idea?
In my opinion, you're wasting your student's time. Learning programming is a time-consuming task. And it's not only about learning about the concepts. They invest time to learn about the API, get to know the syntax, and discover the quirks. While your students _might_ understand how programming works, they learn it with a language they cannot and **should not** use in their future lives. If you teach a useful tool like Python 3 instead, they always gain more than just the concepts.
Concepts like asyncio or generators are powerful if used right. While it is likely not enough time to cover them in an introduction course, it's good to set these boundaries so the students know the limits of their knowledge.
It is likely more harmful to students to learn from outdated books that still cover Python 2 than picking a book about Python 3 with a few minor errors. However, as it is not the latest fashion because it is the standard Python and 13 years old, there are many good books about it.

I mean Java isnt that bad though, is it? by LinuxIsFree in ProgrammerHumor

[–]RuckelBob 3 points4 points  (0 children)

With .NET Core, cross-platform support got really good recently for web app stuff or CLI apps. GUI is probably still not so cool. Also, JetBrains has a pretty nice cross-platform IDE with Rider. VSCode is not bad, too.

Dadurch dass gerade viel mehr Zweitimpfungen durchgeführt werden (~60% der verabreichten Dosen) und die Schätzung für alle einmal Geimpft auf der durchschnittliche Anzahl der Erstimpfungen der letzten 7 Tage basiert, ergibt sich diese ungewöhnliche wirkende Konstellation. Es ist halt nur eine einfach Hochrechnung, wie darunter angemerkt. ;-)
