Sigma's Information

Sigma's Bio

Suspiciously majestic certified code fairy who owns more domains than shoes - definitely not a catgirl!
My main interests are computer languages, programing paradigms, databases and the like. I also dabble with LLMs sometimes.
(I'm CEO at HTMX, btw.)

Besides dark magic, I'm also passionate about music, movies, anime, and, as of late, light novels (currently reading "How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom").

Oh, and (not that I think it's important, but) I'm a strange nerd.

That's enough code for one bio. 😅

Falls euch mal ein USB Keylogger begegnet, ist er vermutlich von der Firma Keelog. Deren Produkte funktionieren so dass das gleichzeitige DrĂŒcken von drei Tasten das GerĂ€t zugĂ€nglich macht

Hab mal ein BadUSB-Skript geschrieben, dass Tastensequenzen durchprobiert, um das Teil zu entsperren

Stellt sich raus - die MĂŒhe ist unnötig - offenbar alle Keylogger kommen mit einer nicht vom Hersteller dokumentierten Backdoor.

Das Tippen von VSNLPB entsperrt unabhÀngig von der Konfiguration.

Fun idea: A filesystem that randomly positions files and randomly relocates the journal every once in a while.

I think you could make cheap flash drives much more reliable that way.

I could make a special name that always resolves to the current closure. But then I loose type information...

Urgh. How do I resolve this...

The problem is: All functions are closures, and variables are immutable. Put another way: A function can not exist within its own scope.

Huh. I just noticed that I accidentally made it impossible to have recursions in my programming language.

How did that happen? ^^"

@7331@mastodon.de Honestly, I don't think Outlook or Gmail block mail providers outright. With Gmail I think I remember them being quite picky when it comes to SPF, DMARC, etc. And by now I'm convinced the Outlook spam filter is just random - I've had mails from amazon.de moved to spam.
Blocking smaller mail providers was a thing gmx did if I recall correctly.

@7331@mastodon.de My primary email provider isn't either. And so far I haven't had any real problems.


@sigmasternchen yea same but my email provider is also big enough that i would expect not getting blocked

@7331@mastodon.de Hmm... Honestly, there are better reasons not to selfhost email. From my perspective: It's the fault of people who use Outlook.

Interestingly, from my experience this only seems to effect the free Outlook stuff. Proper Exchange stuff works quite well - at least for business communication.


@sigmasternchen >it's the fault of people who use Outlook
or, put differently, everone who doesn't use gmail which is a lot of people and i think only a tiny amount of them are keen on hearing explanations about how bad outlook's spam filter is

Outlook has the worst spam filter out there. It regularly puts legitimate emails from big companies like eBay in the junk folder, but also lets really obvious phishing stuff through.


@sigmasternchen outlook is the reason why i don't selfhost email
congratulations, m$, you killed yet another little part of the open web.
