TolgaHow would you keep secrets out of your application logs? This article by Allan Reyes covers approaches that tackle this problem - among others - through the design of your logging / data architecture and using dedicated data types to handle sensitive information in a safe way.<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/defendabledesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#defendabledesign</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/appsec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#appsec</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/swdev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#swdev</a> <a href="https://allan.reyes.sh/posts/keeping-secrets-out-of-logs/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://allan.reyes.sh/posts/keeping-secrets-out-of-logs/</a>

Jan WedelThe compiler is your friend and first line of defence.

tjhowseI use github copilot daily. I treat it like pair programming with a very enthusiastic junior developer who's pretty good at skimming manpages and API docs, but not perfect.However whenever I'm adding a comment to existing code that starts with "# This is..." it *almost always* suggests a completion of "...a bit of a hack but it works".I'm always slightly insulted.Also the prevalence of this comment in its training corpus is concerning.<a href="https://howse.social/tags/swdev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#swdev</a> <a href="https://howse.social/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#programming</a> <a href="https://howse.social/tags/github" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#github</a> <a href="https://howse.social/tags/copilot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#copilot</a>

Jan WedelTIL: You can use MS Teams channel as a virtual office room. If you create one or two Channels (e.g. “room 1” and “room 2” for your team, people could join, stay there. Others can join at any time without calling everyone. For reasons unknown, we used a group chat before for over a year now which is annoying as the first one starting a call will call everyone. <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/RemoteWork" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RemoteWork</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WFH" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WFH</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WorkingFromHome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WorkingFromHome</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Teams" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Teams</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/swdev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#swdev</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/DEVCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DEVCommunity</a>

Jan WedelI’ve integrated <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/ChatGPT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ChatGPT</a> in my daily developer life. I don’t let it write code or tests, I let it do the googling and reading documentation for me. It saves time. I can ask “Show me a how to create a public/private key pair and use that in a YAML pipeline in Azure DevOps to connect to a remote server ‘example.com’ and execute the command ‘echo hello remote world’ there”. This saves looking up a ton of stuff in docs, stack overflow and man pages. It doesn’t work always but takes you 95%. <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/swdev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#swdev</a>
