The XZ attack and timeline
29. October 2021 At this point Jia Tan pops up, and the first thing we see from him is an innocuous patch to the xz repository, and while a lot of people believe he started out trying his luck with another library also known as libarchive, this is not the case, I would bet it’s more of a backup looking at the dates, being that there are a few days in between as shown in this commit.

Backdoor in upstream xz/liblzma leading to SSH server compromise

Making Amiga IFF Thumbnails Work in Linux
Full agreement, and with the addition of xpk¹/xfd² as natural extensions to that extensibility too. I see things like xfd supporting xz¹, and I'm simultaneously amazed that it exists and happy that I don't need to do xz {,de}compression on 68k ;)
I guess we have something similar-ish with libarchive⁴, but nobody(including me) has pushed the extra mile to get file dialogs to support random compression and decompression formats.
Beyond OT: I didn't realise how much stuff was still going on at aminet, but I love love LOVE that people are still dropping new car sets for Geoff Crammond's F1GP.

WinRAR zero-day exploited since April to hack trading accounts
I don't have a preview channel install handy to check, but apparently they're using libarchive so here's the full list assuming they expose everything it supports:

Help running crystal on remote server
However, you should be able to use a different version of the library that is compatible with your system. Maybe you can install the development package for `libevent` via the system package manager? That should assure a working state. Otherwise you should be able to download a compatible version from https://libevent.org/ (either binary or source and build it yourself).

Understand the underlying Javascript - event loop
They're different. Node uses libuv while chromium uses libevent. You're also seeing different APIs for working with the event loop like nextTick() in Node that doesn't exist in browsers.
