Ein Grund, warum ich ständig sage, dass es wichtig ist, so viel wie möglich selbst zu hosten bzw. sinnvolle open source Services zu benutzen ist, dass Big Tech mit Raubritter-Erpressermethoden versuchen wird, euch immer weiter auszunehmen.

Unpackbar.

#varnishcache uses miniobj.h by @bsdphk which puts an unsigned int magic value at the start of each "thing pointed to", which is really helpful to guard against stray pointers, use-after-free and whatnot.

I am amazed, #neovim with #clang #lsp is GREAT, I just learned how to enable inlay hints and found a nice signature help plugin. A big THANK YOU to everyone making this possible. #llvm
Screenshot of neovim editing C code of a new #varnishcache extension showing inlay hints and a signature help function: inlay hints are text snippets (in a different color) added to the code, here showing argument names. The signature help pops up while typing a function call.

if you meet someone who does not understand the implications of vendor lock in, just tell them they will when they get blackmailed: »However, two days ago, Slack reached out to us and said that if we don’t agree to pay an extra $50k this week and $200k a year, they’ll deactivate our Slack workspace and delete all of our message history.« https://skyfall.dev/posts/slack #vendorlockin #cloud

Todays #varnish_cache adventures is heading to a complete failure.

an NGINX server as backed
Varnish Cache as caching server
HitchTLS as TLS terminator

Somebody knows what "RX_JUNK" means?
