I've spent days trying to figure out why Xcode would crash after archiving a new version of Scribble. It wasn't App Clips, Xcode Beta, or Cocoapods.

OMG, that's hilarious. Project Zero found vulnerabilities in Symantec's unpackers (ala UPX). They sent a reproduction sample via email as a password "protected" archive. That crashed the server, as it triggered the vulnerability. Antivirus bad. pic.twitter.com/p7ZPuqMEZQ

It was easier to change the language of biology than to fix the default in excel- or to alter researcher habits.

I'm not a particularly good speaker, so I'd actually recommend the linked transcript instead of the talk itself unless you strongly prefer video or audio, though 😅 pic.twitter.com/ShFROKSmcu
this is probably one of the funniest things i've ever read and it's from a pair of intel engineers who developed the 386 pic.twitter.com/fEPfg6s12H
