↳ In-reply-to » @lyse Is it this one? https://github.com/rivo/tview It’s almost 10 years old but hasn’t seen a 1.0.0 release yet? đŸ€”

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Interesting approach. đŸ€”

The master branch should never be in a broken state (apart from bugs I don’t know about). Any intermediate state during the development of a larger feature will happen in a different branch.

I mean, yeah, but 
 I don’t know, I like having “traditional releases” as a second safety net when I write programs. I like to let things mature for a while and then I cut a new release. So it’s, like, “we have a bunch of new features and fixes here, and to the best of my knowledge this works fine now”. But maybe I’m just paranoid. đŸ€”

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Indeed. Very unpopular, though. I’ve long given up that fight at work.

In reality, there are too few real incidents. It doesn’t hurt enough. It’s always: “Something could happen!” But we’ve never been hit big time by an attack like this 
 so I just look like a paranoid idiot.

↳ In-reply-to » That was a very non-fun day at work.

@prologic@twtxt.net

Are we some of the only people in the world that realize how fucking dumb all this Internet-connect shitℱ really is?

Yeah, but don’t ask me why that is. I’ve never gotten a satisfying answer when I talk to people who hype this kind of stuff. (I mean just normal tech people, not CEOs or something.) They just shrug it off and/or think that my concerns are paranoid. đŸ€”

↳ In-reply-to » I admit I've always compromised on this way too much myself, always to this day having Facebook Messenger just to communicate in my families group chats. Sure I run it in a Work profile on my GrapheneOS phone that I can switch off at any time, I can completely cut it off from network access any time as well, I can have a lot of rudimentary control over it, I use it as sparingly as possible, but it doesn't change the fact everytime I use it we're funneling private convos through bloody Meta's servers and trackers etc.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de

(I don’t really trust Android, though, and I suspect that apps can still install background services that are always active. Pure speculation and paranoid on my part, but still.)

Which is fair, but I would say the GrapheneOS devs in particular are also quite paranoid about this stuff and go to great pains to make sure this stuff can be controlled by the user.
