CIRCLE WITH A DOT

@jpsays i'm not a doctor please do not ask me for a diagnosis

yes, drinking at work is bad, but the ballmer peak is real, and we have the self control not to have a problem.

sure, my manager has a spreadsheet of how much i've drunk and how many lines of code i have written, but i don't feel any pressure to get buzzed

it is very funny to be in a conversation about "sufficiently disciplined software engineering processes" on a website that keeps crashing every 10 minutes

@cwebber oh my

@pozorvlak @joe

to be clear, if you believe openbsd has a lower defect rather than any other of the bsds, you're absolutely being taken for a ride

@pozorvlak @joe alas, "secure programing in C" turns out to be more than just yelling at linux developers

@fugueish @joe alas "they only have to get lucky once, we have to get lucky every time" is as true as it ever was

@fugueish @joe i'm not saying "it doesn't work" but "beware the low hanging fruit giving you false estimates about success rate"

@fugueish @joe this was true of fuzzing before but i admit it is far more subsidized now

@joe it's more "this is actually a thing it can do" i feel as fuzzing does produce results

but, well, after the burst of low hanging fruit, i don't expect a regular crop of bugs

@mjg59 as i understand it, "endless hacktober" is more apt

endless september was about new people not learning the rules

endless hacktover is about people doing extractive work

@mjg59 i feel like "outsourcing the work to the lowest bidder" isn't really a democratic force at work
