OTC CatchUp #183

Date: 11-05-2024

Duration: 3 hrs 23 mins

Topics Discussed

  • Pratik Thakare shared that most ISPs doesn’t have a CGNAT over IPv6 hence you can publicly expose your system if someone got you IPv6 address.

  • Swastik Baranwal shared about how someone used him to bag some sponsors on GitHub - post on X.

  • We looked at an incident where two researcher who faked 83 CVEs as they didn’t had any proofs of them and they were very vague.

  • Pratik Thakare, Kartik Soneji and Darshan Rander talked about HTMX and CSR vs SSR.

    • In SSR it’s difficult to cache since the data shown can have user info which might be something you don’t want to leak of other users.

    • In SSR your frontend is in your backend which causes issues in deciding what you should and should not send to user to process.

    • In CSR you offload a lot of processing on client which further decreases your dependency on server.

    • In CSR you have a faster FCP (Firt Contentful Paint).
