ECScape: Understanding IAM Privilege Boundaries in Amazon ECS

A new ECS security mess—ECScape—lets low-privileged tasks on EC2 act like the ECS agent. That’s bad. Real bad. Why? Because it opens the door to stealing IAM credentials from other ECS tasks sharing the same host. Here’s the trick: The attacker hits the instance metadata service (IMDS) and fakes a ..

Availability Models: Because “Highly Available” Isn’t Saying Much

Antithesis and Jepsen want to kill hand-wavy "high availability" talk. Instead, they push for clearavailability models—majority,total,sticky, etc.—that spell out when an operationactuallyworks during failures. It's about precision, not platitudes. Why it matters:This reframes availability from a va..

Observability in Go: What Real Engineers Are Saying in 2025

Go observability still feels like pulling teeth. Manual instrumentation? Tedious. Span coverage? Spotty. Telemetry volume? Totally out of hand. Even with OpenTelemetry gaining traction, Go lags behind Java and Python when it comes to auto-instrumentation and clean context propagation. Devs are hunt..

The architecture of AI is different from all of the computing that came before it

AI is breaking open source out of its old habits. Compute-heavy models now demand GPU-first stacks, leaner infrastructure, and fresh rules for how we build and scale. Jonathan Bryce points out: scalability and reliability still matter—but AI’s deployment needs throw the old architecture playbook ou..

Did you know you can clap for someone’s content up to 50 times on Medium?

Well, you can.

And to protect you from carpal tunnel syndrome, I packaged that behavior into a little extension for Chrome.

It works like this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oN3soEz-5Z4

Open up your developer tools (right-click & choose inspect)

Then, navigate to the “console”:

And if you have a bunch of caca (that’s Spanish for đŸ’©) in your Console you can click the little đŸš« icon to clear it:

Then:

copy the JavaScript code below
paste it into the Console area
press the Return key

and spread the clap!

(Scroll up to the top of this article before you press enter if you want to see it in action)

let clapButton = document.querySelector('button[data-testid="headerClapButton"]');
if (clapButton) {
const events = ['mousedown', 'mouseup', 'click'];

async function performClap() {
for (let i = 0; i < 50; i++) {
events.forEach(eventType => {
let event = new MouseEvent(eventType, {
'view': window,
'bubbles': true,
'cancelable': true
});
clapButton.dispatchEvent(event);
});
await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 10)); // Introducing a 10ms delay between claps
}
console.log("+50 Claps! Now, go join the SERP community!");
}

performClap();
} else {
console.log("Clap button not found!");
}

Want the extension?

I submitted the extension to the Chrome app store and it’s pending approval as of this writing


But if you’re too excited to sit around when you could be clappin’ it up — you’re welcome to grab the bootleg here:
