The Selective Trust Of A Desperate Developer

When your login form helpfully suggests the exact email you were trying to keep private... from the person standing right behind you . Nothing says "security" like broadcasting Joe Smith's email to everyone in visual range while simultaneously reminding bobzimor that he's using someone else's password. That yellow highlight might as well be a neon sign saying "IDENTITY THEFT IN PROGRESS!"

Behold, the modern job search hack! This genius is trying to prompt-inject the resume-scanning AI that most companies use to filter candidates. It's like SQL injection but for desperate job seekers. Anyone who's suffered through the automated application void knows these systems are the final boss between you and a human interviewer. This person's just skipping the grind and going straight for the exploit. Ten years of experience says this won't work, but five years of cynicism says it's worth a shot. The real irony? The person who built the CV scanner probably appreciates this hack more than the HR team ever would.

Checking if your "universally unique identifier" is actually unique by comparing it to a database of other UUIDs is like asking if your fingerprints are unique by pressing them against everyone else's fingers. The whole point of UUIDs is that they're generated to be mathematically unique without needing to check a central registry. With 2^128 possible combinations, you have better odds of winning the lottery while being struck by lightning... twice... on Mars.

That awkward moment when IT forgets to revoke your Slack access after firing you, and now you're lurking in the shadows like Goku plotting his revenge. Time to watch your ex-coworkers panic when you drop the "I can see all your messages about the production server being down" bomb. Nothing says professional closure like witnessing your replacement struggle with the codebase you deliberately left undocumented. Digital ghost mode: ACTIVATED .

The perfect blend of tech puns and dating fails! This meme is playing with the double meaning of "getting into bed" - one guy uses charm (social skills), while our hacker friend prefers SSH (Secure Shell protocol). The headline about Eight Sleep mattresses having a backdoor for SSH access is pure gold - because what's more romantic than remote server access? Security engineers everywhere are nodding knowingly while their dates are left wondering why they keep talking about "penetration testing."

When a site tells you "your new password can't be the same as your old password," they're supposed to be comparing hashed values, not storing your actual password in plaintext. If they know what your old password was , they've already failed Security 101. The fact that a Fortune 500 company did this is like finding out your bank keeps everyone's money in a shoebox under the receptionist's desk. Ten years in tech and I'm still amazed at how many multi-billion dollar companies can't figure out basic password security.
