    People referring to themselves as 'Shopify experts' - indeed, anyone in any field who labels themself an 'expert'. it's fucking Dunning Krueger writ large in large flashing neon lights.

    We've encountered a security hole in a shop. I had assumed that given there were two specific functionalities we specced in our brief way back when, that they had been properly considered and accounted for.

    Realising the hole, I thought about it for a second and it took me - me, a non-programmer schlub - less than 2 minutes to work out how to replicate the breach. Suffice to say, it's based on the use of a front-end condition that can [obviously] not only be changed easily by the user, but isn't then validated server-side.

    This isn't even security 101; it's not barely schoolboy error level.

    if I ever meet the 'expert' who did this I'm going to fucking slap him. This isn't the first instance of his uselessness; but it is the most egregious.

    .

    Next time i'll buy a Mac and take a couple of weeks off my proper job and do it myself.

    People who have no fucking clue how anything works, ask me about it, and look at me like I'm hanging them out to dry when it's not fixed.

    Case in point: Dude comes into my office to ask me to help with his iPad. K? I'm a programmer, not IT. But, whatever. He can't download an app because his Apple Id is disabled. Ok? Well, that's new to me. I say it's an Apple thing, and they'll need to unlock it.

    "Can you log into your account?", I ask
    "I don't know, this was my son's"
    "Does he have access to it?"
    "He doesn't remember which e-mail he used"

    At this point I basically tell him idk, call 1-800-APPLE or whatever. Dude looks at me like I just murdered his dog. Sorry mother fucker! I'm not Apple. Not might my fault you have no idea what your login details are.

    I'm going to start telling people their device is hacked and needs thrown away from now on.

    windoze 7 for not being able to play vimeo files

    and

    vimeo for making their video player unworkable on older systems.

    • What do you mean, Vimeo on the web or as a download? Can you send me a link to an example?detritus
    • Download options appear to be just MOV or MP4 files - are you sure it's not just some daft issue with your player application?detritus
    • vimeo vids embedded in an html page won't play on chrome or ie11 running under windoze 7hans_glib
    • That's probably in IE11 issue, rather than a W7 no? I still have IE, rather than Edge, installed if you want to me to have a look? Email me if so.detritus

    • Well, sounds like your client's made their own bed, so 'not your problem'. IE11's about 2-3% - maybe offer a workaround option on a browser sniff?detritus

    Digital literacy experts. Been working in eLearning for years and abhor what it has become.

    Universities are using these fuckers as insurance because their qualifications mean shit unless they prepare people for ever more technical jobs... Things haven't moved on at all since I was at University - and that was so long ago our undergrad students next year weren't born when I started in 2000.

    If a student makes any effort to utilise technology while here (even automate part of their research via Excel macro) it won't count for shit. Yet these are exactly the skills that jobs require.

    Recently I've seen universities ditching their IT infrastructure to move to externally hosted services... and recruit these Digital Literacy idiots in droves for support. None of them are coders, very few of them understand any of the real advantages of technology. But my god can they rhyme of buzzwords... There is no effort to increase engagement or reward use of technology. And very few of them are smart enough to realise their jobs only exist to prove it's not the universities' fault that students aren't prepared for the real world.

    I went to a talk by a woman from Oxford who essentially gave a presentation that was filled with buzzwords, but effectively proved that her actions to engage students with technology over 7 years hadn't worked. There was no significant increase in use of technology... The things she had totally omitted from her surveys of students: scalability/ automation the idea that you can write a bit of code once and have it work for you... An 'expert' that missed the entire fucking point of using a computer... and her powerpoint looked like shit!

    Sure at least they let me automate my entire fucking job so I can spend precious time on eBay.

    mate of mine who:

    - books show for a indie band in a gallery. asks me to do sound for free.

    (i agree because i've heard this band and they're wimpy as fuck, can do it with a couple of vocal mics and the galleries tiny PA)

    - puts his loud as fuck punk band as support...

    (i tell him i'm not going to do it any more because i agreed on the basis of not having to bring much gear)

    - asks if he can borrow my PA, mics, stands, and bass amp because the gallery PA isn't going to be big enough for his band.

    fuuuuuccckkkk youuuuu!!!
