If you are on GitHub then you can also disable issues and only allow pulls from contributors (you). Then you still develop “in the open” but don’t take contributions.

Same. I really want to file a proper bug report for this but I haven't been able to really dig into the details and the last thing I want is a "ghostty is a cpu hog" kind of report without useful info on how to debug that.

"LLM-assisted code review won't be a huge disruptor" is quite the prediction. Because it already is in a very big way. The take on LLMs seems incredibly out of date and out of touch with reality. (Which of course, has moved/advanced very fast the past months/year)

My ARM64 experiment started in 2020 with the MacBook Air M1 and I have not looked back. ARM on the desktop or your lap is possible.

Browsers are also a continuous finger printing target.

It is opt-in on iOS for Applications. Applications have to declare upfront what sites they will communicate with.

It is called app transport security. if you don't set it up your app boots in a sandbox with no network.

Settings -> Privacy Security -> App Privacy Report

Unfortunately 1 - as a _user_ you cannot opt-in or out. I wish Apple would take the next step and let us select which sites an app is not allowed to communicate with. Or ideally even globally for all apps.

Unfortunately 2 - the list of sites the app wants to communicate with is not clearly communicated upfront like before you install.

Unfortunately 3 - the list can also contain wildcard domains

Small steps - they really need to push this to the next phase IMO.

On iOS those are collected and sent to the developer via the OS so you would still get them via Xcode. Sentry would obviously not work.

For 350 USD, and note that this is without a case, storage and power, you can also buy a N100 or N150 mini pc.

The Pi was supposed to be cheap. What happened.

There is no excuse. GitHub runs a great program on HackerOne and it should just have been submitted there.

Also note that the person who found this was pissed because they had a difficult experience with submitting a bug for VSCode THREE YEARS AGO through MSRC which is _completely different_ than the GitHub H1 program and no doubt much more challenging with a different experience.

There is really no excuse for this irresponsible disclosure. They could have at least tried instead of holding a grudge for three years.
