Interesting read on the current state of cross-origin attacks and mitigations in browsers: https://www.arturjanc.com/cross-origin-infoleaks.pdf

Twitter seems to be the place where journalists

1) sniff around for the latest controversy
2) spitball some ideas
3) publish a lengthy thinkpiece in The New Yorker or The Atlantic

What in the heck is Twitter doing to journalism?

@jessiscah24 In a podcast interview, the creator of SQLite said it's pronounced "S-Q-L-ite, like a mineral." That feels so wrong to me though https://changelog.com/podcast/201 (skip to 17:20)

"The most striking thing about Android Go is just how much of it runs on Web technology rather than the Android platform. […] The best example is Google Maps Go, which is built entirely with Web technology. On our ZTE phone, the full Android version of Google Maps would take up 80MB, while Google Maps Go is 250 times smaller: 309KB." https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2018/04/android-go-review-googles-scattershot-attempt-at-a-low-end-android-os/

ICYMI, this is a great podcast interview with @Gargron about Mastodon: https://softwareengineeringdaily.com/2018/04/12/mastodon-federated-social-network-with-eugen-rochko/

Oh yeah, I've been meaning to ask.

Does anyone use apps for github on Android?

I want to have one so I can easily access issues, and read what's going on while on my phone.

Recommendations are welcome! 💞
