WetHat💦<p>Maintaining consistent code style is challenging in software development, especially in large or distributed teams. Using .editorconfig in .NET projects helps enforce uniform coding standards automatically, resulting in a professional and uniform codebase with reduced friction in code reviews. </p><p><a href="https://okyrylchuk.dev/blog/how-to-standardize-code-formatting-in-dotnet-with-editorconfig/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">okyrylchuk.dev/blog/how-to-sta</span><span class="invisible">ndardize-code-formatting-in-dotnet-with-editorconfig/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/DotNet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DotNet</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Programming</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/VScode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VScode</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/VisualStudio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VisualStudio</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/BestPractices" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BestPractices</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/CodingStandards" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CodingStandards</span></a></p>
Vic<p>The recent massive IT outage ⛈︎ caused by a security update crash highlights critical lessons for all developers. Key statistics: 8.5 million computers affected, Delta Airlines facing up to $500M in losses. Here are essential lessons to avoid similar disasters:<br>⛨ Expect the unexpected.<br>⛨ Validate your inputs and outputs.<br>⛨ Use comprehensive static analysis tools.<br>⛨ Always test on hardware.<br>⛨ Roll out updates gradually.<br>⛨ Integrate robust monitoring and logging.<br>⛨ Emphasize security and privacy from the outset. </p><p><a href="https://www.embedded.com/lessons-every-developer-should-learn-from-crowdstrikes-doomsday-update" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">embedded.com/lessons-every-dev</span><span class="invisible">eloper-should-learn-from-crowdstrikes-doomsday-update</span></a></p><p><a href="https://techhub.social/tags/CrowdStrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CrowdStrike</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/cybersecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cybersecurity</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/softwaredevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>softwaredevelopment</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/embeddedsoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>embeddedsoftware</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/IT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IT</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/techcrash" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>techcrash</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/softwaretesting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>softwaretesting</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/qualityassurance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>qualityassurance</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/codingbestpractices" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>codingbestpractices</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/staticanalysis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>staticanalysis</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/softwareupdates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>softwareupdates</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/robustsystems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>robustsystems</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/testhardware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>testhardware</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/gradualrollouts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gradualrollouts</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/monitoring" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>monitoring</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/logging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>logging</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/securitybydesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>securitybydesign</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/privacyfirst" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>privacyfirst</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/codingstandards" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>codingstandards</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/developerlessons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>developerlessons</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/TechNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TechNews</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/security" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>security</span></a></p>

Rob Pomeroy<p>I liked this comment in last week's Security Now. Code things three times. Do it. Make it better. Make it <em>right</em>. The first time you lay down code for a solution, it's probably garbage. By the third iteration, it's probably about right. (Actually in my case, by the third iteration, it's <em>still</em> garbage, but who's counting.)</p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://infosec.exchange/@SGgrc" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>SGgrc</span></a></span> <span class="h-card"><a href="https://twit.social/@leo" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>leo</span></a></span> </p><p>(Yes, similar to extreme programming.
