So much AI everywhere, I use Warp as terminal on macOS and today they introduced AI assistant and now at least if I sudo rm -rf / I can have someone to ask for help fast enough to know how bad I messed up ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sad but true ....

I have the following scenario with a proposed solution, can anyone please confirm it is a secure choice:
- We have critical API keys that we do not want to ship with the app because de-compiling will give access to those keys, and the request is done before the user logs in, we are dealing with guests

Solution:
- Add a Lambda function which accepts requests from the app and returns the API keys
- Lambda will accept the following:
1. Android app signing key sha1
2. iOS signing certificate sha1
- If lambda was able to validate them API keys are sent back.

My concerns:
- Can an attacker read the request from the original (non-tampered) apk and see what the actual sha1 value is on his local network?
- If the answer to the question above is yes, what is the recommended way to validate that the request received is actually from the app that we shipped and not from curl/postman/script/modified version of the app

I was checking Notesnook pricing, guess for who they wrote the price as "Your Data"

Is someone is facing this issue? This is the second time I try to download LibreOffice, download speed is 200KB,
I just downloaded AWS CLI and download speed was 4MB, are they throttling or something?

On a side note, XCode 14.0.1 up and running in a new time record on an HDD (not SSD)

Was always dreaming of this moment ever since XCode 6, finally it came true

Wanted to use LibreOffice on a newly formatted machine, but my internet says no ...

Stupid UX on Apple app store connect website!
*Enters email
*Enters password
*wrong password, password field still focused
*starts typing: email field focused and all content is written there now .....

Why?

Two reviewers two comments on the same content, both comments conflict with each other and I'm required to apply both, how exactly?

Usually websites:
- wrong password -> Password field cleared and focused again

Apple websites:
- wrong password -> Password field cleared and email field focused again and password field hidden because fuck you!

I'm facing a strange problem, I have a 400GB microsd, it is formatted as exFAT

I tried formatting it again to either ntfs or ext4, on either Linux or macOS, but every tool says format complete then when scans again it still shows the files that storage had + that it's exFAT

I tried gparted, disk utilities (macOS), Disks (ubuntu), mkfs all show same result that it successfully formatted the card but after refresh still shows old filesystem + the contents of the memory already there no file was removed

Can anyone help?

Google Docs suggested I change:
Wraps existing get drop off

with:
Wraps existing git drop off

Me: Trying to check Redshift
*types: RedShit :\

Is this really android 12? My phone is stuck at android 9, and I'm using simulator to test an app but wtf is this? its like the cheap copy of an iPhone settings :S

What is this even the stretching when we hit edge of scroll :S

This thing looks like when Windows Phone meets iOS

Confession:

Owned a smartphone for 10 years, this month was my first time ever getting 3G/4G connection ...

I prefer no internet when I'm out ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Wtf is this ....
Google clock app, anyone can recommend an alternative I just want to set an alram

Working with Swift & Kotlin again, feels good to work with them, although I did enjoy working with Typescript, but React Native is just not fun to work with ....

Firebase:

I'm facing weird behavior. I have an app on Android 7 always received notifications evven if not used for a week.

On Android 9 if not used for three days it stops receiving anything.

Anyone knows what could be wrog?

My laptop is powering off out of nowhere...

I've checked for SSD errors non found replaced it with HDD not issues at all ...

Any one can recommend a tool even if it's on Linux to scan for SSD issues?

I'm starting to learn Solidity, and explore about smart contracts.

Anyone have a nice resource for learning?

Domain Drive Design question:

I am working on a simple case to teach how to apply DDD, my case is as follows:
Simple forum with Author, Moderator and Users.

I am using Dotnet core for this. I am not sure how and where I should implement authorization:
1. Author can edit his posts only
2. Moderator edits any post

In dotnet core, we handle roles, policies in the api layer, and its per endpoint, I have an identity layer which handles accounts, registering roles and policies in database.

But I'm not sure if I should or how to handle authorization based on permissions in application layer.

I used to be a fan of Google designs but that all white shit is just too much, the developer console (aka Play console) is annoying and less organized and blinds my eyes!

I give up. I am having trouble understanding Go lang *, & stuff.
attached code does print what fmt.Println has, but the function calling: FindByID is throwing invalid memory address or nil pointer when it attempts to use the result of the code.

Can someone please explain where I'm wrong?
Error log blames the line of "if" condition even though fmt does print its output to console

Where can I find good golang documentation? This is not helping me :\

Any way to increase tab font size in xcode 12? Or Apple only gave an option to increase navigator font size (well three options instead of customizable font size .... but at least I can now better read dir tree of my project lol)

I'm starting to get sick of working with handed over projects that previous devs think they are masters of programming and their code is nothing but pure chaos ....

I'm given a project written in Java & Swift, API class is initiated a million times in same view, has access to android context, custom font is applied by creating custom text view instead of applying customization in styles file ....

Still haven't yet looked into iOS code but I'm not expecting much ...

Sometimes I wonder why I chose working with code

Was working with Swift lately, we no longer have: x++ in Swift, and I wrote rowIndex += 1, and go-lint was not happy about it ....

I signed up to a website, and my password contained & symbol, got an error that password cannot contain that symbol, I thought we are way beyond vulnerability of SQL injection?

Or that symbol can be used for some other attacks?

Toggl is now all pink, I think @alice is lead designer there 😅

I'm not sure why this is a good thing? Maybe I'm missing something?
