[23:04:18] <aclark> !logs

[23:05:45] <aclark> simon_weber: so the goal is to prevent arbitrary execution of "bad" code? i.e. malicious code
[23:06:21] <simon_weber> yeah, since unless I'm confused, you need to execute someone's setup script to package it
[23:06:31] <aclark> sure
[23:07:13] <aclark> but in pythonpackages case i was executing on heroku which is already secure-ish, meaning you can't hurt the system that setup.py is being executed on
[23:08:16] <simon_weber> perhaps you couldn't do like rm -rf *, but I'm not sure what prevents someone from just dumping the database or something
[23:08:53] <aclark> simon_weber: because the db is not hosted where the execution occurs
[23:09:40] <aclark> it's a service you connect to…
[23:10:00] <simon_weber> yeah. I guess i'd still be nervous about it, haha
[23:11:27] <aclark> hah
[23:11:39] <aclark> nervous your personal info would be compromised?
[23:18:29] <simon_weber> oh, not really about using the service, about offering it
[23:19:28] <simon_weber> dealing with the aftermath of a breach like that probably wouldn't be much fun
[23:21:17] <aclark> ah
[23:21:18] <aclark> sure
[23:25:27] <simon_weber> well, in any case, excited to see what you come up with
[23:29:40] <aclark> simon_weber: thanks! did you use the site when it was running before?
