It's a reference to Hamilton. Definitely reads like nonsense without the context, though...

Typically services will have you confirm your current password before allowing you to change it (for exactly this reason).

Why is that wrong?

One could argue that it is premature if the code doesn't _need_ to run 10x faster.

Why?

No other bad actors can get it, but we don't know if it's already been found, and now that it's gone we have no idea what data is out in the wild. And as you note, we can't trust the companies to accurately report it themselves.

man is universally known in the industry, and supported (to some extent, at least) by project authors/maintainers; this project will be forgotten by almost everyone (and start decaying) as soon as this post is off the front page here.

They're publicly well known, and as far as I'm aware they don't have any rules against telling people you're a member. Many of their temples/lodges/whatever you want to call them are identified somewhere on the facade (Freemasons' Hall in Edinburgh for example is available for hire as an event space).

However, what they do and talk about within the lodge is secret.

Tip #6 (Use official images when possible) is certainly convenient when you're just spinning up something (I use them in local docker-composes all the time), but it's surely opening yet another security hole when it comes to prod. We're not lacking examples where packages are hijacked (feels like it happens constantly on npm, rubygems had it just the other day...), and docker hub has already had one security breach.

Perhaps worth a mention in this blogpost?
