#StackOverflow is an excellent case study into why public resources shouldn't gamify the user experience in order to get contributions.

SO was already full of bad content from people trying to raise their score. The new threat is now ChatGPT spam, with moderators being now disallowed to moderate such content.

When you provide a score that's a proxy for showing skill, people will game it until it destroys the service. You know what other service keeps growing its gamification? #Github.

Any devs that work with both #GitHub and #Codeberg repos? How are y'all setting up #Git to work between projects on the different sites?

I feel like the simple solution is to create two OS accounts on my Mac and switch between them, one is "Codeberg" work and the other is "GitHub" work.

Or...push everything to GitHub and have it sync over to Codeberg? That seems to completely defeat the purpose.

Or maybe I'm making this too complex. That's been known to happen.

A little warning about the #Mastodon import lists for #academics: https://github.com/nathanlesage/academics-on-mastodon

Most of them are not active here at all. And yet they added their names to the lists.

Yes, there are worthwhile accounts that are helpful to follow, but the majority are dormant. I don't understand why they haven't deleted their Mastodon accounts if they are not going to use them.

There are many accounts that post exclusively in another language.

We noticed a naive attack on our websites the morning, attempting to exfiltrate #netlify env vars.
Because our websites are simple docs websites this was largely pointless and we have no reason to assume anything valuable got stolen. We still took precautions and rotated *all* of our keys & credentials.

Many others were similarly attacked, and after we informed #github security, the user account has been suspended.

Since I've been using #GitHub #CoPilot heavily the past week or so, I thought it was time to write up my experience. You might find it surprising.

https://ovid.github.io/articles/using-github-copilot-with-vim.html

#software #OpenSource

I predict with Nordic pessimism that the software field near future will look like this:

People will take #GitHub #CoPilot and similar tools into use, and quickly forget how to write boilerplate and basic algorithms from scratch.

Companies will still continue with #LeetCode style interviews with now a noticeable drop in "qualified" candidates. They will continue to complain about shortage of engineers.

Once people are hooked, free and cheap services for automatic coding will become expensive. People will grumble and either pay or try to switch to self-hosted open source alternatives with somewhat different characteristics.

Companies will finally make a move to completely embrace these tools also in recruiting processes. However, they will only provide access to the expensive tools for which they have some special almost-free start-up subscription, which people can't afford to pay personal licenses for, except in universities which provide free licenses for students. They act as if open source alternatives don't exist.

Ultimately our general insanity will be taken over by #AI politely pushing humans away from whatever "gainful" activity we believe we are doing.

I updated most of my #pypi project to use "trusted publisher"

I can't figure out how to get an "environment" to only allow deployment from tags (which bizarrely #github treats as "branches") so I instead add an approver step and potentially all builds can be deployments, but only if I click OK.

This weekend PyPi, the python software repository, suspended new accounts: the level of malicious activity has become unmanageable.

But this story is not just about Python: the level of risk from software dependencies has risen unimaginably: not a little, not a lot, this is big enough that it is hard to communicate and comprehend.

Python (pypi), Javascript (npm), Java (maven), Ruby, and even VS Code extensions are all under constant unrelenting attack. When a single package is trojanized, that threat is inherited by every application that include the compromised package.

The number of methods being used for these attacks is growing, and developers are now a "target of choice" for many criminal groups.

For example, in 2022 there was a sudden increase in the number of an effectiveness of "Phishing as a Service" (PhaaS) offerings in criminal markets. These services are effective at bypassing MFA. However, you may not know that these services are being used to target developer accounts, including repositories of private and open-source software. They want to trojanize the code and create the next big software-supply-chain compromise.

PhaaS is just one method. This weekend's announcement from PyPi was the result of criminals creating a large number of developer accounts so that they can publish malicious clones of existing packages. Typosquatting of packages is not a new phenomena, the constant stream of attacks is new.

You might assume that the repository hosts or managers must have a solution. They do not. The problems are diverse and many: from the management of repository hosting, to the security/trust verification features of packaging systems, to the security of repositories and the developers themselves.

There is no one solution, but solutions are needed.

My action item for you is this. Do not read cybesecurity about software repository compromises in isolation. Look at the forest and not the trees. Big risks are harder to understand that little ones but need the most urgent action.

Below are a small selection of stories in the comments to get you started. This is just a tiny fraction of the stories I have read and analyzed in the past year. The "hits just keep on coming".
