“AI will solve it” Oh absolutely, even dumb LLMs today can solve it, just ask ChatGPT how to solve climate change and it will tell you a reasonable plan right now.

The problem is that people in power have no intentions to implement any of that.

Not any more dangerous than installing a random exe. And a GUI that opens when you click one could explain that danger much better than what currently happens: people blindly use sudo dpkg and that’s it.

Most end-user software is not in Debian/Ubuntu repos. Sublime Text, Discord, Anydesk, Google Earth, Ente Photos, Synergy, Steam, NordVPN… The list goes on. You download a Deb from their website.

My guess would be that the password checking feature has a minimum character limit of 4 characters, to avoid false positives on things that aren’t actually passwords.

Did you reply to the correct comment?

Your answer to “how to harden SSH?” is “harden SSH”?

I know your two other points gave concrete suggestions, but it’s pretty funny you suggested to “harden sshd” when that is what OP is asking how to do.

Yeah, I was thinking of a new repo with no existing code.

In your case you’d want to uncheck the creation of a readme so the hosted repo is empty and can be pushed to without having to overwrite (force) anything.

You don’t if you just clone the repo you created.

Why are you posting stuff about some other OS on a Linux sub? Maybe try some general technology one.

Linting rules and scripts should never live in an IDE-specific directory.

Of course they should. Obviously it shouldn’t be the only place they are, but committing IDE code styles settings that match the externally-enforced project styles is absolutely helpful.

Or, in our project we have a bunch of scripts that you can run manually, but we also have commited IntelliJ run configurations that make running them a convenient in-IDE action.

We know it’s not an Apple user because they are using WhatsApp instead of exclusively iMessage.

/s :P

Nobody would ask for the brand in reality. For 99% of computer issues it’s going to be something specific to the used software or Windows, and if the hardware turned out to be relevant in any way, you’d ask for the model because the brand itself is useless for most issues.

Sorry it was just jarring to me. :P

Turns out Nginx is not N-jinx
