Defeating Electron

It is likely that some of your desktop apps have been developed with Electron [https://www.electronjs.org], a framework that combines Node.js, parts of Chromium, and a layer of native code. Apps like Visual Studio Code, Slack, Atom, WhatsApp, or even the installer for Microsoft's Visual Studio

"A developer frustrated by Adobe's cancellation fees used Anthropic's Opus 5.5 model and pure Rust to rewrite the entire Creative Cloud suite as open-source alternatives. The seven applications — PhotoCraft (Photoshop), VectorCraft (Illustrator), FilmCraft (Premiere Pro), EffectCraft (After Effects), LightCraft (Lightroom), DesignCraft (InDesign), and PdfCraft (Acrobat) — were built from scratch using clean-room reverse engineering without touching Adobe's original code. Within the first week, the GitHub repository garnered 24K stars. The apps run natively on macOS, Windows, and Linux, with some capable of running in browsers via WebAssembly. Shortly after, the same team (ArtCraft) released three Microsoft Office clones: GridCraft (Excel), WordCraft (Word), and DeckCraft (PowerPoint). All three replicate the familiar UI structures — cell layouts, document editing, slide masters, animations — and are completely free, open-source, subscription-free, and written in Rust." https://www.besthub.dev/articles/ai-generated-open-source-suite-artcraft-clones-adobe-targets-microsoft-office-07a368afb64b #AI #GenerativeAI #LLMs #OpenSource #ArtCraft #Adobe #Opus #SoftwareDevelopment #Programming #VibeCoding

Ein PDF verlinkt man nicht. Man schickt es rum, und drei Wochen später hat jeder eine andere Version. Deshalb steht mein Buch jetzt komplett als Seiten im Netz. 34 Kapitel, jedes mit eigener URL, durchsuchbar, kostenlos, kein Formular, keine Mail-Adresse. Wenn im nächsten Refinement wieder die Frage kommt, wer eigentlich entscheidet: Kapitel 11 verlinken statt eine Datei anzuhängen. PDF und EPUB gibt es weiter. https://no-bullshit-agile.de/buch/?mtm_campaign=mastodon #SoftwareDevelopment #Agile #Kanban #Scrum #Buch

Malleable software: Restoring user agency in a world of locked-down apps

The original promise of personal computing was a new kind of clay. Instead, we got appliances: built far away, sealed, unchangeable. In this essay, we envision malleable software: tools that users can reshape with minimal friction to suit their unique needs.

We Have Named Arguments at Home | corrode Rust Consulting

Steve Klabnik recently wrote about named arguments, optional arguments, default arguments, function overloading, and why most of that design space has historically made him nervous in Rust. I agree with Steve. In fact, I think I agree slightly more s…

Agents: The new, New Kingmakers

Well over a decade ago, hundreds of conversations over a period of years crystalized into a book called The New Kingmakers. The core thesis of the book was simple: a constituency long thought to be powerless had become instead the real power behind the throne, the anointer of queens and kings. For decades, developers that

Genau das machen wir auch. Ich predige es seit meinen ersten ChatGPT-Versuchen Ende 2022. "Whiteboard Defense" trifft es gut. Entwickler müssen ihren Code und die Gedanken dahinter jederzeit erklären können. Sonst nutzen sie LLMs falsch und ihre Software geht den Bach runter. Und da sind wir wieder: Eine Effizienzsteigerung von 50 % oder mehr gibt es nicht. Unter 20 % sind meiner Meinung nach drin. https://no-bullshit-agile.de/llm-beweislage.html #development #softwareDevelopment #LLM

Laravel Scalpel: A New Way to Detect Filesystem Intrusions in Laravel Laravel applications can be compromised in ways that traditional code and dependency scanners may not catch. Laravel Scalpel takes a different approach by looking for evidence that a deployed application has already been modified or compromised. It can detect: • Rogue PHP files and suspicious extensions • Obfuscated PHP and common backdoor patterns • Malicious .htaccess and .user.ini changes • Unexpected .env files and configuration issues • Added, modified, or deleted files using SHA-256 baselines • Changes that can be integrated into CI/CD security checks It also supports JSON, SARIF, and GitHub Actions output, making it interesting for teams that want to incorporate filesystem integrity checks into their deployment pipelines. One important limitation: Scalpel runs with the same permissions as the Laravel application, so it should be treated as a detection tool rather than a complete security or containment solution. For Laravel teams, this is an interesting additional layer for detecting signs of post-deployment compromise. #Laravel #PHP #Cybersecurity #ApplicationSecurity #DevSecOps #WebSecurity #SoftwareDevelopment #CI_CD
