Comment Look at productivity (Score 1) 112

Before jumping to embrace a framework, consider switching from an editor to an IDE. VSCode, Cursor or PyCharm come to mind (the vi vs Emacs debate is just hilarious). Poke around with AI like GitHub Copilot or Cursor to gain insight into improvement suggestions. Embrace version control (git) and automated deployment (e.g. GitHub Actions) I found CodeRabbitâs code reviews super helpful. Once you are there, take a hard look at your code. Since client side code is JavaScript, you could consider a JS framework like Vue - removes one language. Have a look and pick what works for you

Comment Sharing is a term that will be scrutinised (Score 1) 210

Technically the website didnâ(TM)t share user information, but provided code (the font include) that made the userâ(TM)s browser âoeleakâ data. So the term âoesharingâ was interpreted very loosely. You can expect that to be subject of the appeal in an attempt to define that more narrowly. I could imagine browser manufacturers getting dragged into this as well - maybe a permission prompt like access to audio/video? If users then disable it for annoyance⦠Like in a good game there are a few layers to come: - OLG (appeals court) - BGH (Federal court) - EuGH (European court) We havenâ(TM)t seen the last of it

Comment The solution to this is a page from fashion (Score 2) 132

The fashion industry eclipses the music industry by more than a magnitude (that's more than 10x ). Sources: https://www.statista.com/stati... https://www.statista.com/outlo... How can that be? Fashion has NO copyright protection! That's the reason why e.g. Louis Vuitton prints their logo (which is a trademark) on all their goods. How it works, see here: https://www.ted.com/talks/joha... In conclusion: Ask your lawmakers to end copyright for music! It works for fashion, it will work for music. Keep the lawyers out of the creative process!

Comment Biometric data needs to be decryptable thus can be (Score 2) 204

Matching bio data isn't an exact 1:1 match. The mechanism is a proximity comparison. So the original data can't be protected by a one way encryption. Therefore it is way easier to steal that information for reuse. After all any biometric reader attached to a personal device can be simulated by an attacker and the stolen bio data fed in directly - so it is even easier than any of the current 2FA (the use case for readers in protected locations, think doors, is only slightly better). In summary having a unchangeable second factor lowers security, especially when the second factor can't be protected properly #badidea
