I somehow managed to accidentally delete /dev/null and it’s unbelievable how much stuff relies on writing data to nothing.

  • SSH just doesn’t start
  • same with tmux
  • bash completion doesn’t work and spams errors about _upvars
  • I can’t open GUI programs unless I launch them from a terminal that was opened when /dev/null was still there
  • Firefox prints assertion failures, then the error handler segfaults (!!)
le0l,

@fgaz

  • all my requests|alerts|feedbacks to management usually go there:
    > /dev/null.

Reading a book can be inspiration for a cybersecurity talk.. and vice versa 😜​

Any vendor with a web API that doesn't have #curl examples in the documents has a garbage API. Prove me wrong.

le0l,

@kurtseifried Right, but I feel it's even worse.
The APIs inflation, i.e. polynomial growth of their (ab)use in last years, hides more and more often a bad data structures design, that in modern & politically correct speaking is usually called "interoperability".
