Eine riesige Verbesserung der Lebensqualität. Vielen Dank für Ihren Einsatz! An wen schreibe ich einen höflichen Brief, dass die Ladebereiche vielleicht einen abgesenkten Bordstein für einfacheres Entladen bekommen könnten? InfraVelo oder Bezirksamt? Oder reicht hier? ;-)

Just watched the talk video. well explained! So sad, that there are so many findings. Would you say most DOM-based XSS is mostly `innerHTML =` or what do people usually do?

end of an era 💔 blog.glitch.com/post/changes...

I know Glitch is working on project export but if you're git-capable, I built a tool that will mass-git-clone your public glitch projects: github.com/potch/glitch...

Important changes are coming to Glitch

We’ve got an important update for the Glitch community today: We’ll be ending web hosting for your apps on Glitch.
