My "favorite" recurring security theater: a compliance scanner matches an OpenSSH version string, ignores the distro revision, and flags CVEs that were already patched. I write the dispute, attach changelog screenshots, it gets accepted. See you in 90 days when I have to re-report them...

:'(

Such a nice game.

Here is the wrong way for breaking api changes - announce breaking changes just two days before the release - keep the same version path - remove params without any deprecation window - reword error messages - roll it out slowly instance by instance so clients can't tell which behaviour they'll get.

I have been spending quite some time to try and deal with a lot of the known UI/UX technical debt in the app.

The IntelliJ IDEA 2026.2 release is here! Explore our What’s New page for a complete overview of the key new features, including detailed explanations and demos. 👇 www.jetbrains.com/idea/whatsnew/

I am really happy with this turned out. There are still quite a number of ux improvements I want to tackle in next releases.

If you are on the latest pnpm v11.10.0 (or v10.34.5), you can try out the pnpm v12 alpha via: pnpm self-update 12.0.0-alpha.5 It is fully in Rust! 🦀

ngl, it's pretty cool to come online after more than 24 hours of travelling and seeing your team push out an entire rotki release without supervision. Well played yabir and @kelsos.bsky.social! Get it here: github.com/rotki/rotki/...

Every bit helps us keep building in the open :)

12 years ago I decided to become an Android developer. I love Android. I love the community. I love all the things we've built together. But I don't trust Google for shit. Here's why. keepandroidopen.org

This is actually the first update in 5 years, finalizing a re-write that started almost 10 years ago fixing some decade long bugs too.

MusicBee Remote v1.6.0 beta coming soon — full rewrite with Jetpack Compose, Material 3, and a ton of improvements. Open source Android remote for MusicBee. github.com/musicbeeremo...

Honestly switching Nuxt to static from SSR and moving the server side code to go has been a terrific decision. Everything is faster, while it consumes less memory and storage.

📅 Happy 11th anniversary to Alien: Isolation! 💾 Alien: Isolation was released on October 6th, 2014!

I am looking about PCI DSS 6.4.3 and 11.6.1 compliance and it makes me angry. As angry as it makes me to have to relax Content Security Policy because otherwise "3DSecure" won't work because each bank has to run code on their own domain for this to work.

1. Never manually enter your GitHub or npm password; use a Passkey instead. 2. Enable npm 2FA for both authorization and publishing. 3. Use trusted publishing and remove all npm CI tokens. 4. Only invite maintainers who follow these security practices.

We just launched rotki Release Sponsorships. Each release now has a collectible NFT tied to it (starting with v1.41). Sponsoring helps fund local-first, privacy-focused software and gives recognition to both individuals and companies inside rotki itself. Learn more & mint: rotki.com/sponsor/mint

Vitest 4 runs simple test files faster! You can already check it out by installing Vitest 4 beta. On average, Vitest now takes 25% less time to start the test. Due to parallelisation, the overall time difference can vary. We are focusing our efforts on improving the time even more in the next beta!

android-developers.googleblog.com/2025/08/elev... Since they're working on it, can I please just develop my apps without needing to register somewhere? Can we educate about trusted app sources, instead of enforcing arbitrary rules for everyone?

Good news from ESLint! The 10 years old parallel linting issue is finally resolved. Issue: github.com/eslint/eslin... PR: github.com/eslint/eslin...

The latest upgrade to rotki is its onchain capabilities. You can send tokens on any EVM chain to any address (or ENS) directly from the app! Thanks to @kelsos.bsky.social the wallet connection next release will happen all completely locally. 🐦Use rotki, own your crypto! rotki.com/download

Is there any good tool to help detect unused code in a Vue/TypeScript project? on that does not mark half the project unused preferably.

So the certificate costs more than 100$ on yearly basis, and if you want to use it on CI, say GitHub actions where you can not use a Yubikey, you have to use a subscription service that costs 20$ per month for 20 signings...

I wonder how other open-source projects deal with code signing on Windows. Originally we got a certificate for 5 years, due to industry changes, we were forced to re-issue it after 3. Now PFX is not available, and you can either pay extra for a singing service or an expensive hardware token.

You probably tried various apps for crypto accounting, expecting a nice plug&play experience, only to realize it's an impossible task We know. This is why we rotki are offering an accounting service for individuals, companies & DAOs. Use our experience & commitment to privacy: rotki.com/bespoke

I spend quite some time trying to figure out an annoying issue where the navigation bar turns black momentarily during activity transitions. Turns out it's not something I can fix... issuetracker.google.com/issues/42008...

Nothing really wakes you up in the morning than having to clean the glass you broke while making coffee, but I would still rather enjoy the coffee, even if it takes more time to wake up 😂

Lately I have seen this strudel.cc/workshop/get... on a various TikTok videos and it looks really impressive. I have not done anything music related for close to two decades now. And most of the stuff I worked as a teenager was using www.madtracker.org

So what I find funny while I slowly prepare an update for @musicbeeremote.bsky.social is that some of the features I am adding to the update or some of the issues I am resolving are either a decade old or close to a decade old.
