Pluralistic: 05 Dec 2020 – Pluralistic: Daily links from Cory Doctorow
Here’s what Thompson did: he hid a program in his compiler that would check to see whether you were compiling an operating system or a compiler. If you were compiling an OS, it hid a secret login for him inside of it.
If you were compiling a compiler, it hid the program that looked for compilers or operating systems inside of it.
Think about what this means: every OS you compiled had an intentional security defect that the OS itself couldn’t detect.

Blogging vs. Blog Setups
via rakhim.org
Withknown to Hugo
So I’m considering switching my blog from withknown to hugo.
There’s a couple of reasons for this. Known is good, but fairly complicated. I like all the indieweb stuff, but it all still seems very early, alpha stage stuff. I find it hard to keep up.
I run Known on a VPS, and the latest version will require me to upgrade PHP, which in turn will require me to upgrade the VPS OS. Doing that is bound to break something, which isn’t something I want to deal with right now.
