⚡ What triggered it: GitHub rolled out a new token format for GitHub App installation tokens: ghs__. Base64url encoding uses - chars, which Composer's 2021-era regex didn't permit. Any such token would fail validation and leak.
😱 Making it worse: GitHub Actions' secret masker failed to redact the token. Symfony Console wraps error output with ANSI sequences, bypassing masking. Popular actions like shivammathur/setup-php auto-register GITHUB_TOKEN — no special config needed …

Two police officers who clashed with rioters at the US Capitol during the January 6 insurrection in 2021 have sued Donald Trump over plans to create a
$1.776 billion “anti-weaponization” fund.
The fund, which critics have argued is essentially a slush fund, is set to compensate allies of the US president who he claims were victims of prosecutorial overreach.
It was created as part of an agreement in which Trump and his sons dropped a $10bn long-shot lawsuit against the US In…

New Ansible Data Validation Module(s) « ipSpace.net blog
A few months ago I described how you could use JSON Schema to validate your automation data models, host/group variable files, or even Ansible inventory file. I had to use a weird toolchain to get it done – either ansible-inventory to build a complete data model from various inventory sources, or yq to convert YAML to JSON… and just for the giggles jsonschema CLI command requires the JSON input to reside in a file, so you have to use a temporary file to get the job done.

Five years ago, the West risked a
full-blown diplomatic crisis with NATO ally Turkey
when 10 ambassadors called for the release of a man they saw as a political prisoner,
prompting an angry President Tayyip Erdogan to order their expulsion.
After two frantic days in 2021,
the sides stepped back from the brink with the U.S., ‌French, German, Canadian and other envoys issuing conciliatory statements
and Erdogan saying they would be more careful in the future…

Perhaps more of an adaptation than a cover, strictly speaking: a French translation and slight alteration of the old blues standard, "Poor Boy, Long Ways From Home." I love it - it's a gorgeous gut-punch every time.
