The solution is not to use docker to sandbox Opencode. It is to use flatpak/bubblewrap/flatseal.

I have vscode running in flatpak with directory permissions handled by flatseal. Vscode only has access to my dev folders and nothing else. Even the git bundled by vscode cannot call git push because of this (vscode doesn't have permission to read ~/.ssh!).

It's an easy sandbox that's provided free of charge courtesy of bubblewrap/flatpak.

As someone who uses opencode regularly, the quip about it asking for permission to read logs in /tmp after already writing to the directory is pretty funny.

Kubernetes is good for two things. Zero downtime deployments and self-healing (where the looping state mechanism comes in). There are people who want k8s to handle every single operation that can run on a server, do not listen to those kinds of people they will lead you astray.

1.98.9 has already been tagged since bulletin was published (don't know why they chose on github to tag but not release).

1.98.9 version exists! That's not the question. It should already have been made available for Linux distros assuming this resource from Tailscale is accurate https://pkgs.tailscale.com/stable/?v=1.98.9

Edit: Their changelog also mentions the version: https://tailscale.com/changelog#all

I don't see the point of publishing a security bulletin if you are not going to timely push the fix to artifacts on all affected platforms. Tailscale needs to do better on their release process, docker hub shows last update was 8 days ago.

Same here. Even though my homelab runs on a VPS. https://github.com/rhee876527/expert-octo-robot

Sure. After you have located root and the boot partition which is what this addresses.

Partition autodiscovery is pretty neat. I did my archlinux install with it using this guide[0]. I have never touched /etc/fstab and I have had zero to worry about corrupting a boot with wrong fstab entries.

Pausing software updates by X days old is a hack at best for specific distribution platforms (npm), not a general security recommendation.

You can do the same from an USI made from mkosi (mainstream distros support) with kernel boot parameter systemd.volatile=overlay. https://github.com/rhee876527/UKIfy-Xubuntu

Well, open source AI is mostly coming from China. Title should have been China must win.

This decision tree doesn't make much sense to me. Why you someone forego performance today in favor of adding a completely unnecessary network layer to every DB query in order to "satisfy" future imaginary "scaling concerns"?

Vladimir Fedorov is GitHub's Chief Technology Officer .... He currently serves on the board of Codepath.org, an organization dedicated to reprogramming higher education to create the first AI-native generation of engineers, CTOs, and founders.

I think I found the issue.

What makes you think simply throwing random crap on a home VPN network is secure?

Tailscale/Wireguard is overkill because it is not needed where access controls work fine which is true for the majority of the popular self-hosted apps. And you now have to install a VPN client/cert on every device you want to access your services from. That's a major oof.

Tailscale is an overkill solution. Opening ports 80 and 443 for a reverse proxy is enough security provided your apps don't have broken authentication. I've been doing this for years now.

Double checking Github actions does not mitigate threats from supply chain vulnerabilities. Forking an action moves the trust from a random developer to yourself. You still have to make sure the action is pulling in dependencies from trusted sources which can also be yourself depending on how far you want to go.

Pinning github actions by commit SHA does not solve the supply chain problem if the pinned action itself is pulling in other dependencies which themselves could be compromised. An action can pull in a docker image as a dependency for example. It is effectively security theatre. The real fix is owning the code that runs in your CI pipelines. Or fork the action itself and maintain it as part of your infrastructure.

Coding agents are like asking a genie for code. They will give you the code you ask for alright but you never know what kind of curse has been crontabbed for you.

It should have been FastAPI instead.

Interesting blog post. For what it's worth, I count 7 em-dashes used.

Ptyxis: Your Container-Oriented Terminal for GNOME

A modern terminal emulator built for the container era. Seamlessly navigate between your host system and local containers like Podman, Toolbox, and Distrobox with intelligent detection and a beautiful, responsive GNOME interface.

I tried this out after getting annoyed for the 100th time by a recent bug in kgx/console that will occasionally fail to launch windows leaving incomplete windows as tabs.

Console has long since become abandonware pushing people towards ptyxis which is now the default gnome terminal. A damn shame considering console is basically complete software (the quality of software in gnome is on a downhill).

I would have given ptyxis a chance if they didn't take a basic terminal and added some fluff (features related to distrobox) on top of other annoying things I can't be bothered to remember about because I ended up removing the software every time I gave it a spin.

In just a few days I've been able to replace console with ghostty-nightly and I don't miss anything.

Ask the LLM to create for you a POC for the vulnerability you have in mind. Last time I did this I had to repeatedly make a promise to the LLM that it was for educational purposes as it assumed this information is "dangerous".

I revived a once popular Youtube frontend called Cloudtube. All the Youtube media url deciphering is still done by Invidious and I use it more like a frontend for invidious.

Opensuse have been working on making secure boot/TPM FDE unlock easy to use for a while now. https://news.opensuse.org/2025/11/13/tw-grub2-bls/

Same with <svg> but Firefox's XML parser will not greenlight you.

Docker provides some host isolation which can be used effectively as a sandbox. It's not designed for security (and it does have some reasonable defaults) but it does give you options to layer on security modules like apparmor and seccomp very easily.

The perfect lighthouse score might have changed since this was last updated. Am seeing 97% on accessibility.

You could check out SQLite's auto_vacuum which reclaims space without rebuilding the entire db https://sqlite.org/pragma.html#pragma_auto_vacuum

My gripe is with Rust rewrites. Not uv. Though I very much think uv is overhyped.

Rust rewrites are known for breaking (compatibility with) working software. That's all there is to them.
