The Daily - Faded Froot Loops and Dull Doritos: Is Big Food Losing the War on Dyes?

Everything Everywhere Daily - Zoroastrianism

Sometime between the 7th century and 13th century BC, a man was born in Eastern Persia who had a revolutionary idea. 

He claimed that there wasn’t a multiple gods, but rather just one god. 

He established a religion which, at various times, was one of the most followed in the world. Thousands of years later, it still has adherents, although only a fraction of what it once was.

Learn more about Zoroastrianism, its origins, and its tenets on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Brian #1: Open Source Security work isn't “Special”

  • Seth Larson
  • It seems like security is special in a sense that we don’t want just anyone working on the security aspect of a project. We just want the trusted maintainers, right?
  • Seth is arguing that this is the wrong mindset
  • It makes more sense that we maybe have security experts contribute to many projects, and that someone working on security for just one project doesn’t benefit from scale.
    • “Maintainers don’t see how other projects are triaging vulnerabilities and can’t learn from each other. They can’t compare notes on what they are seeing and whether they are doing the right thing. Isolation in security work breeds a culture of fear. Fear of doing the wrong thing and making your users unsafe.”
    • “These “security contributors” could be maintainers or contributors of other open source projects that know about security, they could be foundations offering up resources to their ecosystem, or engineers at companies helping their dependency graph.”
  • But how do we build trust in these individuals?
    • Meeting in person works.
    • But there are other ways as well.
  • I’d personally love to have someone contact me about a project of mine regarding a security problem or process that the project could/should follow. Especially if I could see other projects I trust already trusting this individual to work on the other projects.

In God We Lust - Listen Now: Lawless Planet

It’s not that hard to kill a planet. All it takes is a little drilling, some mining, a generous helping of pollution and voila! Earth over. When you take stock of what’s left, it starts to look like a crime scene: decapitated mountains, poisoned rivers, oil-soaked pelicans, maybe a sun-bleached cow skull in a dried-up lake bed. The only thing missing is yellow caution tape. On each episode of Lawless Planet, host Zach Goldbaum reveals the scams, murders and cover-ups on the frontline of the climate crisis, and the life and death choices people are making to either protect our world – or destroy it.
