The v13 release is not just a release either, it is also our official announcement of participation in the annual #hacktoberfest. 💻🥨
We know that we're a few days late to the party, but v13 had to get ready before. 😉
This year, the fest is opt-in for projects and we definitely want to opt into taking part in this great event! If you ever thought about starting coding or giving back to your favourite open source repositories, now is the time! Head over to the hacktoberfest website to learn more about it.
We already prepared some issues on our repositories and aim towards opening more issues for starters, but feel free to begin a hunt for improvements and fixes by yourself!

前些日子在網上衝浪(不知道現在還有沒有人在用 surfing the Internet / surf on the Internet 這樣的說法)時,發現了 NirSoft 這個由開發人員 Nir Sofer 所創建的個人網站。
根據他在關於頁面的說法,這個網站最初建立於 2001 年,用來陳列自己開發的小工具;起初託管在一些免費服務上,後來隨著廣告與惡意使用者逐漸增多,在 2004 年購買了自己的網域。
裡面有許許多多採用 C++ 開發的 Windows 實用小程式,並且據作者所說,這些程式具備可攜性(portable),大多情況下不需要安裝且不會存取註冊表;裡面 Network Monitoring, Internet Related Utilities, Command-Line Utilities, Programmer Tools 和 System Utilities 的部分可以尋尋寶。
作者還有維護一個部落格,目前最新的一篇文章是 2023/08/19 發佈的;長年來都在業餘時間開發小工具,還能樂此不疲且碼耕不輟,這應該是許多開發者想活成的樣子了。

在 Do You Want To Be a News Source? Just Change Your Account Name 一文中,提到了過去幾年在 Twitter 上出現的幾個虛假新聞帳號案例,這類帳號通常是由既有的帳號修改使用者名稱(username)以及帳號名稱,而非創建新的使用者,這樣的操作手法需要透過永久 UID 來辨認(可以透過 TwitterID 這個工具查詢與反查)。
__
這個電子報還有其他不錯的文章,比如 How to Find Swarms of Fake Twitter Followers 一文,表示這類假帳號通常具備兩個特徵:
1. 短時間內獲得數百或數千名的假帳號關注
2. 假帳號通常會在固定的時間或時間範圍內創建帳號
文中有提供一段簡單的 Python 程式來辨別上述的特徵,但需要具備 Twitter 開發者帳號並啟用 API 來操作,這在馬總搞了一堆奇妙的操作後,可能得另謀他法了…
