I got an automated response from payroll@ telling me they’ll something-something-something in a few days.

Literally just bouncing emails off of likely http://microsoft.com  addresses here.

@gretared It’s not like the credentials work, so it’s pretty damn secure.

@joestump I’m sure he’ll recover, esp. given his access to excellent medical teams specializing in shredded knees.

We’ve got his knee snapping like a twig on replay with CG warrior robots smashing into each other but dude’s tone was unsportsmanlike.

The ruby-core position is that they do not want Ruby to be responsible for the security of users. I and others believe that Ruby already is.

The security@ruby-lang.org thread about the TLS changes was not great. Ruby-core staked out a worrying position. https://gist.github.com/jmhodges/b6f25979b8bc0abc882e …
