despite what social media says, the chopped cheese wasn't really a NYC thing until recently, it was an uptown thing at best if there's anything comparable that represents NYC as whole it's probably the chicken cutlet hero can find that in any neighborhood in any borough

So basically, today PHP got two critical bugs that let anyone run code on your server without even logging in, which is bad, and then the details leaked before the patch was even out, which is worse, and it works on WordPress and MediaWiki and Magento and Joomla and Laravel, and Censys says like 1.5 million servers are running a version with no fix, so the NSA was like "take your system offline," and the FBI was like "take your system offline," and CISA and the UK and CERT-EU were all like "take your system offline," and then the Prime Minister of Japan, the actual Prime Minister, posted at 5:55 in the morning telling 48.8 million people to take their system offline, so everyone took their system offline, like the Dutch cybersecurity agency took its own website offline, and the Dutch parliament went offline, and the Port of Rotterdam went offline, and Finland and France and Denmark started pulling government sites, and Wikipedia went down, and Archive.org went down, and Asana and GOG and Something Awful went down, and the University of Vienna's webmail went down for some reason, and that's just PHP. Because GitLab also dropped a CVSS 10.0, which is the highest score they give out, for a bug that's been there since 2014, so that's every self-hosted GitLab for twelve years, and then LiteLLM 1.107.0 got hijacked and shipped a credential stealer and a remote access trojan in every single wheel and the Docker images, including latest, and you didn't even have to import it, just installing it was enough, and it's the second time this year, and then Railway paused every deployment on the entire platform because someone got into the environment variables, so now everyone has to rotate every secret they've ever stored there, and TiDB Cloud said someone was walking around inside with stolen credentials for basically a month and an extortion group says they took 10.6 terabytes, and Zeabur got breached for the second time in two months and is just shutting down, like the whole company, and Node.js patched remote code execution and a TLS bypass, and CISA says Plex is being actively exploited, and someone took over 300 Tor exit relays to steal SSH passwords, and SafePay ransomware has hit over 600 critical infrastructure orgs, and India's biggest bank filed a data loss incident, and Japan has been in an official state of emergency in cyberspace since October 9, which honestly explains the 5:55 AM post. Oh, and eMudhra, a certificate authority that's issued over 60 million certificates, whose entire job is proving websites are who they say they are, was supposed to be using private keys that are random numbers over a hundred digits long, and one of them was 4. Just 4. And the others were like 66 and 237. Anyway, it's Wednesday.

Railway is compromised, rotate all API keys as soon as possible Deployments are down so don’t wait to redeploy Attackers are draining keys in real time, we didn’t lose much but can confirm this is still an active attack Stay safe friends

years ago when I used to tutor, I had a student finish a practice test at like 8pm. she asked if I could walk her home since she lived nearby but it was dark out. we get to her building on Lexington Ave and this is how I find out her dad is a partner at Apollo

throughout 2021/22 I would let my friends pretend to be Pool at conferences, it’s never not funny
It has come to my attention that a girl in SF was LARPing as me and pretending to be this account at dinners

it's cool that the twitter algorithm incentivizes you to only post about one thing per account it means that when I make a post about a random thought, it shows 30 people who don't care and don't engage, and then nobody else ever again great website

when I first made a sizable amount of money I did what anyone else would do enough warhammer to fill a medium-size NYC storage unit

easy to understand why people hate AI when nobody makes any effort to correct misinformation and instead you constantly tell them they're going to be jobless

bay area parents pay $735,000 per child for similar outcomes to just going to public school in NYC (Stuy, Bronx Science)
Sending 9 out of 195 graduating seniors to Stanford is insane Guess which Bay Area high school this is
