infosex.exchange <3

You are probably looking for the infosec.exchange Mastodon instance

This host is mostly for my random stuff, and in little part acts like a well-intentioned placeholder for the typosquatted domain.

Discoverability and Archiving

Currently I'm using this host for saving the items from my own feeds to the Wayback Machine and provide in-links for search engines. I hate that I have to do this, but the non-sense ideology of Mastodon pretty much ruined the search feature for Fediverse as a whole, and this wasn't changed by the fact that they owned their mistake and implemented search eventually.

Yes, I (or anyone else) could do similar things with other peoples published feeds, regardless of the tantrum. No, you can't defederate this, because the process doesn't rely on an instance.

@joxean It doesn't have to be up-to-date, I'm going for samples, thanks!

Any recommendations for exploit dev focused #CTF with an archive of challenges?

I'm looking for samples and interested in code comprehension, less interested in obfuscation/VMs.

TIL Mohu finally implemented an app that shows you which of their crappy machines[1] work atm:

[1] These abominations won't work without MoHu issued *trash bins* that MoHu never delivers on time apparently

@chaos0815 Yeah, it's moments like this when I become nostalgic for strict typing, but part of Pythons power is exactly this kind of flexibility. I could argue for a more strict API/type checking in this particular lib, but I guess this is also something that makes them (very) popular, so I think I just have to be more careful in the future (like building less funky loops)...

OK, I feel like an absolute noob:

I just spent hours debugging that I left a comma at the end of a #Python assignment, so the value became a tuple instead of the object I wanted 🤦

The library I passed the value to also has very liberal typing so it failed quietly, and the IDE didn't tip me off because I overwrote the value inside a loop...

Extra commas are the new lack of semicolons!
