Loving it

If it had been a legitimate security finding and got his ass kicked anyway, it would have been the perfect level of self deprecating humor worthy of Leslie Nelson himself

Wasn't that what the Claud overflow bug was?

You're absolutely right!

Leslie Nielsen said that that was the secret to great comedy. Serious actors delivering ridiculous nonsense in a serious manner. And don't call me Shirley.

You forgot to add all the malicious actors trying to take the project from you so they can attack the supply chain. Godspeed, anyone maintaining a popular VScode or chrome extension. You're the real troops.

Jarvis, open GitHub and cancel an open source maintainer

HappyFrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 1 pts · 8d (1 reply)

Cancel? What do you mean?

Although I'd be the one suggesting the use of Rust in everything.

Rust goes brrr

Clearly this one stopped all alcohole and glue sniffing weeks ago to achieve this physique. Legend says his dog is just as furious.

Such silly movies. Great. But very silly
