How can one do this safely? If I create a new, non-sudo user, can I install the MDM profile only for that user? I don't understand how this all works obviously so maybe this is a very dumb question

> In total, Coruna takes advantage of 23 distinct vulnerabilities in iOS, a rare collection of hacking components that suggests it was created by a well-resourced, likely state-sponsored group of hackers.

People have been hacking iOS since before it was called iOS and they weren't necessarily "well-resourced, likely state-sponsored". See geohot

In October 2025, retailer Canadian Tire was the victim of a data breach that exposed almost 42M records. The data contained 38M unique email addresses along with names, phone numbers and physical addresses. Passwords were stored as PBKDF2 hashes and for a subset of records, dates of birth and partial credit card data were also included (card type, expiry and masked card number). In its disclosure notice, Canadian Tire advised that the incident did not impact bank account information or loyalty program data

I am deeply troubled by what the Trump regime is doing but I think this trend for European countries to use European tech is actually quite good. Competition is better, plus your privacy laws are much better. I host some of my own data in Europe for this reason.

A codebase search for "claude" only has 1 hit in the code (the markdown that you referenced) and 4 commits which include the word in the commit message, or one commit includes .claude/ in the git ignore. See https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Atldev%2Fposturr+claude&ty...

Same with a codebase search for "anthropic"

Good point, it was superfluous info. It's how I found out about it

There’s a product with a similar UX for audio books called a Yoto Box https://us.yotoplay.com/ It’s very popular in Charlotte Mason homeschool circles

auslegung — Tue, 30 Dec 2025 20:21:17 +0000

Well written, anticipated my questions about pain points at the end except one: have you hit a point yet where deploying is a pain because it’s happening so frequently? I understand there’s good separation of concerns so a change in marketing/ won’t cause conflicts or anything to impact frontend/ but I have to imagine eventually you’ll hit that pain point. But fwiw I’m a big fan of monorepo containing multiple services, and only breaking up the monorepo when it starts to cause problems. Sounds like author is doing that

Source? My career isn’t terribly long, and it’s all been at startups, but it’s never taken me or any team I’ve been on years to ship anything.

Monorepo until there’s a true need for multiple repos. Note that monorepo is not the same as a monolith, one can have multiple “services” in a monorepo depending on the language and toolchain.

I suggest trying out Doom and maybe some other configs to see what's available, and if you want to roll your own you can choose the things you like most from them. I came to emacs from [n]vim and using evil-mode was _very_ helpful in making the switch easier so I recommend that

Not OP but I switched from gmail to fastmail in 2019 because at the time they were the cheapest option that provided unlimited email aliases and masked email. Masked email feels great, I feel like I’m in control of the communication. I can turn it off at any point

New comment by auslegung in "Would you trust AI to query and act on your company data?"

auslegung — Tue, 30 Sep 2025 13:21:58 +0000

We use Atlassian and they have helpful tools to query across all our knowledge sources: Slack, GitHub, Figma, Google Drive, of course Jira and Confluence, etc. It is VERY helpful. Doing even more, like you describe, sounds great however I would not want it acting independently. I would prefer “pause the underperforming ads” to result in a plan describing what the LLM would do, and require a human to approve. But this is going to change over time as we get more comfortable with these things taking potential destructive actions. Version controlling everything would be ideal so we can inspect what it did and roll it back if desired
