From Malwarebytes Not so fast. Enter Dylan Ayrey, who discovered a way to use JavaScript to inject malicious commands into a copied shell script. On his proof-of-concept webpage, copying the following innocuous shell command and pasting it into the Terminal results in something completely different Browsers ruin everything.

There’s a new update out for Interact for iOS. It’s a strangely useful little app for working with contacts. Interact is one of those apps that I didn’t know I needed but when I use it I feel like a wizard. The developer blog post is a great intro and includes demo videos. Check out the linked video below to see why it’s like magic for entering contacts.

Several of my friends have pointed me to this new Alfred Emoji snippet collection. I’m not sure what that means about my relationships but I am sure this is a pretty stellar addition to Alfred for Mac. Just look at the announcement page for a free collection. It’s tremendous and ironically wordy for an Emoji snippet package. If you like the Slack implementation of Emoji snippets then you’ll love this collection.

Frame.io is an incredible looking iOS app that I now want to use just for sharing videos. The iPhone app looks powerful and gorgeous.

The developers of Day One are making a bold move. A recent blog post outlines their current plans for end to end encryption but also puts outs a plea to critique the designs. I used Day One for all of my text journaling. It was one of my favorite apps for a very long time. But I don’t want them holding my information. I’m happy to see them developing in the open.

Computers will serve us, they said. Our every whim will be provided for. We only need to ask. Earl Grey, hot. And now it’s all this. These days feel new. Every six months my access to and control of knowledge is noticeably faster and easier. The spread of computational power into even the most mundane device is mesmerizing and sometimes bewildering. Some days I feel like I’m in a movie.

Hazel is one of my top 5 Mac apps. It’s taken me years to build up the scripts that Hazel runs on my machine, partly because there’s a steep learning curve and quite a bit of danger. But now, David Sparks has a video field guide to teach you all about Hazel so you can save a lot of anguish and get right to the magic. Here’s a 30 minute intro video for free:

Way back in 2012 LinkedIn had a breach and an unspecified amount of information was stolen. From Vice Both Peace and the one of the people behind LeakedSource said that there are 167 million accounts in the hacked database. Of those, around 117 million have both emails and encrypted passwords. And later… LeakedSource provided Motherboard with a sample of almost one million credentials, which included email addresses, hashed passwords, and the corresponding hacked passwords.

I’m sure you’ve heard that Associate for iOS is out this week. I’m a big fan of Blink for iOS, which is a great tool for generating Apple affiliate links. I like Blink because of all of the little pleasantries for searching the app store. It’s not just for affiliate links. Associate is a new app for generating Amazon affiliate links. It’s a much nicer alternative to the half dozen scripts I’ve made over the years to convert an Amazon link to an Amazon affiliate link.

It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of DEVONthink on the Mac but the iOS app wasn’t very useful to me. I’ve been helping to test the betas of the all new V2 of DEVONthink 2 Go and I’m confident this is going to be huge for a lot of people. If things keep up this way, it will be the first all-in-one capture system I feel fits my needs.
