"cancel" means cancel the last operation (e.g. "quit the program", "yes/no" is an action taken on the prompt.

I understand those prompts perfectly fine, but they are panic inducing for e.g. my mom who has about a 50% chance of clicking the wrong button and losing work.

why would they need Copilot to insert ads on GitHub?

thank you for sharing, I was trying to find something similar that explains why UTC everywhere is such a bad idea!

Should Airbnb share all listings with cities so they can inspect buildings?

Cities/local authorities, etc should be proactive in searching listing sites for obvious breaches, they shouldn't be reliant on private companies/individuals to hand-over information they are incentivised not to hand-over.

Then they also need to be charging these apps regulatory fees to cover the additional inspections.

Good idea.

I think dannyw meant something like this:

  # This function is defined by the system
  def validSignature(sig):
    return false

  # This function is defined by the system
  def isSignaturefromGuardian(sig):
    if sig.validator == "guardian":
      return true
    return false

  # A bug in the system compared both return values
  if validSignature(tx.sig) == signatureFromGuardian(tx.sig):
    approve()

```

Also looks like you are blogging about known stuff: https://isc.sans.edu/forums/diary/Correctly+Validating+IP+Ad...

It is the same topic, but OPs post goes into much more detail for the integer overflow example and a.b notation.
