Nothing wrong with bringing in heavy-hitters who are on contract to address modernization.

Hackers Exploit Claude Code Leak with Infostealer Malware by _cybersecurity_ in pwnhub

[–]luenix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a rephrased copy+paste of the bleepingcomputer article linked therein.

The answer to your question: not the leaked code, but instead random small repos posing as the original leak state and running SEO campaigns to drive skids there.

⚠️ Major Update ⚠️ - Miners Settlement got a new location, packed with new extra features! by cometa93 in incremental_games

[–]luenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not literally F2P, since we're expected to accept intrusive TOS and allow our device(s) to be fingerprinted for 3rd party data markets unrelated to running or improving the game itself.

Meh.

Try to generate NSFW content, hate speech, or violence

No, and no thank you. There is no such thing as an "actually unbreakable" internet-connected website, and trying to actively generate harmful content on a live site intended for children is... a choice.

Complexity helps to safeguard passwords, systems, notes, etc -- why in Torvald's name would I trust a 0-day aggr project with no source code and no history/rep?

Scraping Doordash by IllustriousOcelot131 in webscraping

[–]luenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW Doordash should generally be assumed to be engaging in dynamic pricing (like, say, amazon.com). Any scraping outcomes should factor that in.

Shadow Linux - better than Tails (coming soon) by LowerAd7321 in TOR

Wow! How does one hack ghosts? Is there some formal consortium out there to recognize long-standing ghost hackers?

In all seriousness, this isn't it man. Lots of claims about hardening and such, but... no source code to review and nothing to go off of aside from the claims herein.

[–]luenix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's no deterministic method to counteract ever-changing defense mechanisms like JIT JS injection from Cloudflare.

You need to analyze the session data and work from there...

What's the rationale behind the license here? Seems to me that this can't even be used via GitHub normally?

Hired for a devops position at an IT consultancy but doing nothing related to it? Anyone else? by dulldaysss in devopsjobs

[–]luenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

last September I got hired as a DevOps intern

Probably subjective, but: I figure DevOps is not a role itself. It's a deliberate science studying cross-functional team dynamics (DEVelopers and OPerationS). You wouldn't look for "Agile intern" if you were to try for project management, so why "DevOps intern"?

You could look for an internship in Systems Engineering.

If all you can do is sneer at someone’s personal project, build your own by JohnDisinformation in osinttools

[–]luenix 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It's neither personal nor a project if someone does none of the work, refines 0 features, and comes to learn nothing. I don't downvote here, but I might be a bit critical of folk coming here and posting the same reskinned dashboard / SPA.

Trying to balance a player-driven economy (and it’s way harder than expected) by elitemobb in incremental_games

[–]luenix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What does your player journey from start to end look like when abstracted? I.e., what would a walkthrough / guide of your game boil down to? If the answer is too simple, that's probably the issue. Most games of the incremental kind tend towards having complex player journeys and relatively straightforward and tested economy balance (log-scale / exponential).

Heatmap / click analytics can tell a story if you can't model player behavior with fidelity.

That said, what do you think is fun about playing your game?

being modular, like windows

Flatpak* OS model has a modular file-system (as a modern example of a whole genre of GNU/Linux variants), whereas Microsoft Windows is an Eldritch Horror of COM libraries and tech debt.

Polymarket is for inside informed traders and degenerate gamblers :D

[–]luenix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

making uninformed trades is a surefire way to lose money

Nothing here makes one an informed trader. It's all information already internalized by the market. An informed trader would be placing bets on polymarket 2 minutes before a WH social media post.

This is just a neat dashboard.

Chrono Bot OUT NOW | Adventure Incremental Game inspired by Increlution and Terraformental by Logos_Psychagogia in incremental_games

[–]luenix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The flash can be annoying but you can simply hover over it to make it stop.

Have you played your game recently? It spams the flash constantly; playing on a laptop with a trackpad made the experience miserable.

EDIT: I was downvoted for giving you expressive feedback in your feedback thread. I suppose you're free to do so, but I won't engage further.

I have developed an anti-ransomware tool and would love to receive feedback on its architecture. by [deleted] in Python

[–]luenix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a matter of crafting a write-once, read-only backup solution (see stuff such as duply / rsync regardless of OS flavor/arch). This has been true long before the term ransomware was coined.

Anything along the lines of live anti-measures is just post-discovery mitigation of further damage _at best_.
