Insurance giant Aflac says a cybercrime group breached its systems and may have stolen data
  • Well, I hope they have insurance.

    Thanks, I'll see myself out.

  • Pierre Poilievre has apparently been calling up (and thanking) icky right-wing influencers
  • According to the alleged recipients themselves,

    I don't see these people, especially after the context in the video, as reliable sources. I remain skeptical about these calls. Don't get me wrong, PP sucks, but Rachel should have done a little more "fact-checking"

  • PSA: La STM est passée à Windows 11 cette semaine
  • Sure, tu peux ajouter un thème qui parraît comme windows, mais pense pas que les applis (existantes comme photoshop, word, etc, ou plus important, custom) que tout les employé(e)s sont accoutumé d'utilisers peuvent être remplacés sans frictions.

    Y faux pas ignorer qu'il y a une grosse infrastructure derrières c'est systèmes là.. ADFS, Sharepoint (probably), Office365, etc.

    Mon point est que c'est irréaliste de penser que ça ce fais du jour au lendemain peux importe de ce que tu pense de MS.

  • PSA: La STM est passée à Windows 11 cette semaine
  • Je comprends ce que tu dis, mais le coût d'une migration de Windows vers un autre système d'opération comme macOS ou Linux coûterait probablement des milliards. Et si tout cela était fait d'un seul coup, la STM serait probablement paralysée pendant des mois, sinon des années.

    Il faudrait procéder de manière itérative et la dernière chose à changer serait le 'day to day' des employées..

  • How do you implement API Keys?
  • If you are looking to do something like Github's Personal Access Tokens (PAT) then it is easiest to just think about it like a password:

    • Create a high entropy (secure) string
    • Store the hash of the string in a database table
    • Store the permissions and other metadata with the PAT's hash
    • Validate the PAT (permissions, revoke status, etc) on each request to the server

    Storing the hash of the token, like you do with passwords, is a good practice in case your db is ever compromised as it wont leave the tokens accessible and reusable without a lot of effort.

  • Has anyone here had success with upgrading a Xamarin project to use Maui?
  • Yeah, unfortunately that stuff is almost impossible to estimate. Inform your client that fixing the build will be a game of whack-a-mole where you'll fix one thing and 5 new errors will show up. I would give yourself lots of time since you've never worked on Maui (? You didn't say that in your post but if you've never heard of xamarin, i'll assume maui is new).

    I would break your work down into two milestones: a) compile and run, b) fix all the busted views. It should come to no surprise that a) will be hard to estimate so give yourself lots of time, and b) will be easier to estimate because you'll be able to review each View and determine what kind of fixes you need to make.

    Good luck

  • Has anyone here had success with upgrading a Xamarin project to use Maui?
  • Yes. The transition from Xamarin to Maui has been similar to transition from .net framework to .net core.

    A few things you will run into:

    • namespaces have changed
    • certain things will be deprecated but still currently work (ie FillAndExpand)
    • platform specific setup has changed (you'll need to convert to the new way, but code will likely remain the same)
    • upgrade your nuget packages to the Maui equivalents (the ones we used had Maui versions so we didn't have to change any of them)
    • certain ways of doing things have change slightly, like how to run things on the main UI thread (you'll see warnings)
    • your xaml code will remain mostly unchanged but your layout may need to be fixed (especially if your dependencies changed their interfaces)

    That's all I can think of right now. There's no easy way to do it and it's going to suck. Focus on getting it to build with all your dependencies upgraded and then go from there.

  • If any of the languages you know is spoken in more than one region (ex: European vs Brazilian Portuguese), what version of the language do you speak?
  • You will speak the version that you learned. You will mostly notice regional differences in the idioms and synonyms of the words you know might be used more commonly in one region vs the other.

    For example, in London you might hear people use boot instead of trunk.

    But the majority of the words will be the same regardless of region.

  • Nothing should be off the table when it comes to Canada-U.S. trade, says former Trump ambassador

  • "Copilot I'm losing this match, aim for me"

  • Copilot exposes private GitHub pages, some removed by Microsoft
  • Kind of a nothing burger.

    These repositories, belonging to more than 16,000 organizations, were originally posted to GitHub as public, but were later set to private, often after the developers responsible realized they contained authentication credentials allowing unauthorized access or other types of confidential data. Even months later, however, the private pages remain available in their entirety through Copilot.

    The repo was listed as public and archived. It's not clear from the article but I suspect that the "private" information is just a copy of what was made public and not the information added after it was made private.

    CBC Gem is a great free alternative to Netflix and Apple TV
  • It's an alright service, I just wish they would have used/merged the same login for CBC and Radio-Canada content instead of 2 different sites with 2 different logins.

    As for premium, I would also have preferred that they removed the ads in the "live feeds". I'd be fine with it just being a screen with the CBC logo and the text "Ad Break".

    At least the pricing (6$ for Gem) seems fair.

    Le 25 septembre : une journée de célébrations pour les Franco-Ontariens

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ca/post/29724681

    > Bonne fête des franco-ontariennes et franco-ontariens! > > L’origine de cette journée remonte au 25 septembre 1975, date à laquelle le drapeau franco-ontarien a été levé pour la première fois à l’Université de Sudbury. Conçu par Gaétan Gervais et Michel Dupuis, ce drapeau est rapidement devenu un puissant symbole d’identité pour les Franco-Ontariens. Ses couleurs et ses symboles racontent l’histoire et l’environnement de cette communauté : le vert représente les forêts d’été du Nord de l’Ontario, tandis que le blanc évoque les hivers enneigés. La fleur de lys rappelle les racines françaises, et le trille blanc, fleur emblématique de l’Ontario, souligne l’appartenance à cette province.

    www.eff.org Canada’s Leaders Must Reject Overbroad Age Verification Bill

    Canadian lawmakers are considering a bill, S-210, that’s meant to benefit children, but would sacrifice the security, privacy, and free speech of all internet users. First introduced in 2023, S-210 seeks to prevent young people from encountering sexually explicit material by requiring all...

    Canada’s Leaders Must Reject Overbroad Age Verification Bill

    > Canada’s S-210 is part of a wave of proposals worldwide seeking to gate access to sexual content online. Many of the proposals have similar flaws. Canada’s S-210 is up there with the worst. Both Australia and France have paused the rollout of age verification systems, because both countries found that these systems could not sufficiently protect individuals’ data or address the issues of online harms alone. Canada should take note of these concerns.
