  • It does help if services that generate or store secrets and keys display a large warning that they should be kept secret, every time they're viewed, no matter the experience level of the viewer. But yeah understanding why and how isn't something that should be assumed for new devs.

  • Anyone who uses Grindr, please be aware that any photos you send are cached and stored unencrypted in plain old folders on the receiver's phone, regardless of whether they were expiring or in an album that you later revoked. It's nearly trivial to grab any photo someone sends you, with no watermark or screenshot notification.

  • France is a pretty weird example because most French people do call it France. But technically the country is République français, or the French Republic.

    But a better example would be Germany; it's natively called Deutschland and dozens of languages call it Allemagne or variants of that. Both Germany and Allemagne are historical names we haven't moved on from, even though the actual country has.

  • VSCode with the Vim plugin most of the time. Vim if I'm just editing something small and was already in a terminal.
