После очередного вечера, убитого на расхождение snake_case и camelCase, я написал генератор, который превращает Rust-команды и serde-типы в готовые TypeScript-файлы — без аннотаций и правок в коде приложения.Под катом — почему генерировать надо не то, что написано в коде, а то, что serde реально шлёт по проводу; как я выпустил три релиза за...

«Fix typo»: как в PHP закоммитили бэкдор и почему composer install — это акт доверия

Каждый composer install — это акт доверия: вы запускаете на CI и в проде код, который собрал и опубликовал кто‑то другой, а проверяете обычно лишь хеш в composer.lock. Но хеш отвечает на вопрос «тот же ли это байт, что вчера», а не «кто и из чего его собрал».Реальные инциденты показывают цену этого доверия: в 2021-м в исходники PHP закоммитили бэкдор от имени Расмуса Лердорфа; в xz вредонос жил в release‑архиве,...

Tests Suggest Russian Satellites Can Jam GPS On a Continental Scale

Researchers say mysterious, seconds-long GPS interference bursts detected across Europe appear to come from Russian EKS early-warning satellites, making this "a rare example of human-made GPS interference coming from space," reports Ars Technica. The signals may be tests of space-based jamming capability, short satellite communications, or something else, but experts say they raise troubling questions about whether GPS disruption could eventually be weaponized on a continental scale.
