It might have something to do with what the article's author writes as the moral 'lying is bad'... And understanding why it is bad if code lies about stuff. I can imagine someone looking at that code and the part where…
Well, very interesting indeed! Cool that you actually went through with writing a complete shell :) I guess, I might've been too optimistic about the power of parser generators. Still, I think if someone were to start…
I tried to implement a shell in C once, just to see how to do it. Until I realized, I was basically just writting a shell language interpreter, and thus implementing a lexer and parser for that language manually (which…
Should be the other way around, shouldn't it: "Only if you really care about security should you be allowed to write in C" :) (i.e., don't use a professional-grade band-saw, if you're not a professional)
Yes, but not if you don't want it to: http://winaero.com/blog/turn-on-xmouse-active-window-trackin...
The awesome thing about focus-follows-mouse is that it doesn't raise the window that gets the focus (which clicking in it usually does). So I can type into a partially hidden window, while keeping another window on top.…
Focus-Follows-Mouse for the win :) Which is even available on the crippled window manager that Windows has...
I think the difference is that the test shows what the idea you (as the architect) have is, while the code shows how you (as the developer) implemented it. And then you run the tests and they will, hopefully, tell you…
"Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter!" XD It would be pretty cool to remote control all of those sockets and make a blinkenlights display visible from space :D
a) the sockets all connect to a central server in China b) the sockets identify themselves to that server with their MAC address (kind of makes sense, it's a readily available, global unique (more or less) identifies)…
Maybe it's a bit the complexity of todays game engines, but I suspect that also, If you give people that much freedom, the publishers and other DRM-zealots will freak out, since then people will easily build their own…
oh, ok, that is pretty usefull actually!
Yeah, but afaik, switching those profiles in Firefox is (currently) really difficult. So much so that it almost feels the same as if you didn't have the capability to do it...
I think, often it was more that one didn't want others to know about the history of those activities, which is not the same thing as not wanting them recorded. If there had been a safe way to secretly store that…
Omg, finally this exists :D I think this is the actual solution to the problem that 'private browsing' was trying to fix when it first came out.
Well, there goes that neighbourhood.
So, it has come to this: https://www.ece.cmu.edu/~ganger/712.fall02/papers/p761-thomp... (Ken Thompson "Reflections on Trusting Trust") in real life...
IANAMathematician, but, a brute force proof is still a proof though, isn't it? If I have the theory, that all positive integers smaller than 5 are also smaller than 6, I would assume I'm mathematically allowed to 'brute…
"Well, I don’t think there is any question about it. It can only be attributable to human error. This sort of thing has cropped up before, and it has always been due to human error." (HAL9000)
This is not about the recording side of things, this is about the display side of things. And if you display footage shot on film on a standard computer monitor, you won't magically have more color. Also, modern high…
In a different field (digital cinema) the above is being done for color, lookup the ACES colorspace and workflows... (Very) Basically the camera's recording goes through a process to make it into a standardized ACES…
You don't need EME to play video, HTML5 video can be played just fine without it. AFAIK, You need EME to make sure that only browsers that have the Foo-Corporation EME plugin can play Foo-Corporation videos. And to get…
well, good riddance to flash, but Encrypted Media Extensions are definitly not an advantage, see for example https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2016/04/save-firefox
Nice post! I hope lot's of people read and understand it, the world will be a better place for it :) One thing that would be good to add is: If you implement a way to create/add something, implementing a way to…
If your hwclock is a source of randomness, maybe you should be worried ;)
