Nicolas Fränkel 🇺🇦🇬🇪: " My demo of OpenTelemetry Tracing features two Spring Boot components. One uses the Java agent, and I noticed a different behaviour when I recently upgraded it from v1.x to v2.x. In the other one, I’m using Micrometer Tracing because I compile to GraalVM native, and it can’t process Java agents. In this post, I want to compare three methods: Java agent v1, Java agent v2, and Micrometer Tracing. https://lnkd.in/dYu2uBj7

🔒 Securing Your Symfony Applications with Nelmio Security Bundle 🛡️ In light of the recent surge in hack attempts targeting web applications, it's crucial to fortify your Symfony stack with robust security measures. If you haven't already, I highly recommend integrating the Nelmio Security Bundle into your Symfony projects. The Nelmio Security Bundle is a powerful tool that enhances the security of your Symfony applications by providing a set of advanced features and best practices. Here's why it's a must-have in your development arsenal: 📝 Content Security Policy (CSP) Configuration Define strict CSP rules to prevent cross-site scripting (XSS) and other injection attacks. Fine-tune your CSP settings to allow only trusted sources and protect against malicious code execution. 🕵️‍♀️ Forced HTTPS and Strict Transport Security Enforce HTTPS connections to encrypt data transmitted between the server and clients. Implement HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) to ensure all communications are securely encrypted. 🎭 Clickjacking Protection Defend against clickjacking attacks by controlling frame embedding and preventing unauthorized access. Customize X-Frame-Options and Content-Security-Policy headers to safeguard your application. 🔍 Referrer Policy Configuration Control the amount of information sent in the Referer header to protect user privacy. Prevent leaking sensitive data and reduce the risk of referrer-based attacks. 🧩 Integration with Symfony's Security System Seamlessly integrate with Symfony's built-in security system for a cohesive security solution. Leverage Symfony's authentication and authorization mechanisms alongside Nelmio's additional security features. Installing and configuring the Nelmio Security Bundle is straightforward, and the benefits it provides are invaluable. By incorporating this bundle into your Symfony stack, you can significantly enhance the security posture of your applications and protect against common web vulnerabilities. Don't wait until it's too late! Prioritize the security of your Symfony projects and give the Nelmio Security Bundle a try. Your users will thank you for the added peace of mind. 😊 🔗 Learn more about the Nelmio Security Bundle: https://lnkd.in/dE2FBshp #PHP #Symfony #WebSecurity #ApplicationSecurity #NelmioSecurityBundle

Elixir: Happy Developers and Scaleable Backends? Listen to Sanne 🌟 Kalkman from CodeSandbox this week during DEVWorld Conference online to her talk on #Elixir. 👉 Sign up to replay via https://lnkd.in/eZUKXrGd According to the 2023 Stack Overflow Developer Survey, Elixir is the second most loved programming language, and its web framework Phoenix takes the number one spot in most loved frameworks. Not only is Elixir a joy to work with, it is also an excellent choice for highly scaleable and fault-tolerant backend systems and is an important part of successful tech companies such as Discord and Podium This talk will highlight the main ways in which Elixir differs from other commonly used backend languages like #JavaScript or #Ruby. Then, it will give developers from other languages an introduction into OTP, the underlying framework that makes it almost trivial to build concurrent and highly fault-tolerant systems in Elixir (and Erlang). Lastly, Sanne will highlight some of the specific ways in which Elixir and #Phoenix have allowed CodeSandbox to grow and move quickly with a very small team of #backend developers. The overall aim of this talk is to introduce otherwise experienced #developers to a language and ecosystem they are not yet familiar with, and hopefully inspire them to give Elixr and Phoenix a try for their next project. #devworldconference #devworld #futurism #technology #amsterdamconference #conference #amsterdam

Misconceptions about CSS Specificity – Bram.us https://buff.ly/3WLoCki Whenever a post about Specificity in CSS – and by extension the Cascade itself – gets published I get very excited as it’s a core concept of the language that everyone should know. The more articles on this, the better! However, I also sometimes raise one of my eyebrows as sometimes I, unfortunately, encounter something that’s just outright wrong.To remove some of the confusion, here’s a list of misconceptions about Specificity in CSS … Source: Misconceptions about CSS Specificity – Bram.us ()

Switching browsers - an update: I decided a few weeks ago after Chrome kept on slowing down my MacBook, that I would switch to Opera. Breaking the habit has been hard and I keep forcing myself to open Opera instead of Chrome. On the desktop, I have been mostly okay, except that AdMob refused to load up in Opera last week - this week it seems fine. It hasn't slowed down my laptop at all (I haven't broken the habit of opening everything in a new tab, but it's holding up!) I also switched to the mobile browser and I noticed how one simple thing can change the experience: when you have multiple tabs and you want to switch tabs, Opera shows a horizontal carousel, whereas Chrome shows a full gallery view. With my bad habit of opening everything in a new tab, Opera really slows me down. My first two tabs, out of habit are always: BBC news and AdMob. When you want to switch from tab 80 to tab 2, Chrome is so much easier and quicker. I will continue to use Opera, but I don't think I will get rid of Chrome soon either.
