Are there any snake experts here? I saw this in a tree while biking. Is there anyone that knows what species this is?

@loke It's venomous so handle carefully.

@loke I think it might be a Waglers Pit Viper. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropidol

@sugarbell Being a relatively asocial old man (55 years), I have a similar problem with younger women usually craving for my attention. This seems like good advice either way, so thanks.

Is it just me being old-fashioned? Or is this a common opinion these days?

So I was listening to an episode of Open Source Security Podcast. This is not a bad podcast, but sometimes I'm wondering what they are thinking.

So despite the name of the show, they went on and on about how terrible Linux is, and how Windows has caught up, etc, etc.

In another episode they were talking about how security issues are solved by rewriting things in Rust (I'm pretty sure the hosts are not programmers).

I'm confused. These people are supposed to be professionals but I hear far too much regurgitated nonsense.

@loke They are probably just rehashing opinions taken out of context. I think Rust is popular because it's harder to make exploitable mistakes compared to C, but the distribution (cargo, etc.) is a huge compromise by design, you rely on existing code leaving it wide open to supply chain attacks. Similar to the problems with 'pip' when using Python and 'npm' for Javascript.

With these vulnerabilities, it is possible to ship pirated games on bluray discs. That is possible even without a kernel exploit as we have JIT capabilities."
