I break about 1 USB-C plug a week

I don’t believe you.

I haven’t broken a plug yet and I’ve used usb c on all my devices for years now

1. Make tests 2. Commit them 3. Proceed with implementation and tell agent to use the tests but not modify them

It will probably comply, and at least if it does change the tests you can always revert those files to where you committed them

Cleartext signatures considered harmful

Really? To me it seems that what’s really harmful is assuming a long string of high entropy hex bytes is a valid signature.

Both detached signatures and cleartext need to be run through verify, so what gives?

Does gpg not error when the post-verification output file doesn’t match the cleartext? That sounds like a bug in gpg

That is so incredibly rude of you. Science communication to the general public is valuable.

Let’s not forget that the author is a person too, just cause you don’t like it doesn’t mean you’ve got any place to talk down on them.

They said don’t __just__ use never, and explain that as meaning you should give an alternative with every “never” clause, which is what their example does :)

The better they support the free side, the better the conversion rates will be. So I think the incentives align with both free and paying customers

They didn’t change anything about the software you bought? It still functions like it did the day you bought it.
