    Also the negative insinuation of using “cheap” labor out of India to build the product is unnecessary. If you’re concerned about code quality, look at the code.

    Assuming everyone working with devs in India is doing so cynically is not charitable.

    I dont know why the headquarters was set as india versus SF but does it actually even matter?

    Project mention: With VPN's such as Twin Gate and TailScale, why open ports to expose services to the internet? | /r/selfhosted | 2023-07-05

    IDK if you are too young to remember the fallout from Snowden, but the Kremlin threw out entire rooms computers and for a time used actual typewriters. Because those computers had, more or less, twingate connectors on them. That's a bit of a rich example, but you're essentially installing what sliver calls an implant, what meterpreter calls a payload, and what Cobalt Strike calls a beacon. It's cool if you want to, but there's no need when you can just open a port with the same technology a Fortune 50 does.

  • syzkaller

    syzkaller is an unsupervised coverage-guided kernel fuzzer

    Project mention: Fuzz Testing Is the Best Thing to Happen to Our Application Tests | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-08-17

    The key to modern fuzzing is feedback, usually some kind of coverage testing of the program under test. This allows the fuzzer to be much smarter about how it finds new code paths, and makes fuzzing find bugs a lot quicker.

    Google have a project to do fuzzing on Linux system calls using coverage feedback: https://github.com/google/syzkaller
