Are you aware of the pitfall I've mentioned here?: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17323068 Just making the possible passwords be 10 chars and contain chars out of a set of 62 (lowercase + uppercase + digits) gives…
Due to the fact how little 500 million passwords is out of the entire set of all possible passwords (even with single digit length) the 1 in 1000 false positive rate is extremely high actually. See my other comment:…
Does 1 in 1000 false positive mean that 1 in every 1000 passwords not on the list returns a true? If so, that's not good because good passwords vastly outnumber the bad ones so even a small false positive rate makes a…
1. It just does return Session(), that's easy enough to find out[1]. 2. It doesn't really matter and maybe it's so they are kept closer since they are modified, Session merges your call provided and its own headers…
Valve can state 2 + 2 = 5 tomorrow, that doesn't make it true. They already have geoblocks in place for several reasons ranging from their own whim, to copyright to legal reasons. I can't buy certain animes[0] and I…
The Light Phone 2 features are very poor[0]. Any dumb mobile phone from mid 2000s has those that are guaranteed in [1], they also don't run a modified Android but a bespoke locked down OS, cost less (Light Phone 2 is…
That's a really nice line of thought. I'm no linux wizard but I've used Fedora for a few years for my laptop so if you want to ever ask about something basic we can exchange contact info.
I had that "creepy" moment but it was more silly than creepy to me. I was googling a lot about a certain piece of software (config, how to set this and that up with other things to work together, etc.) and that resulted…
This sadly sounds like a rip off of the venerable Bielefeld Conspiracy[0], just reapplied to an entire country. I have once entertained starting a conspiracy theory saying that unix shell pipes were originally created…
This is false equivalence. The electron app is ostensibly working for your benefit, just in a very inefficient way, not mining a currency using your resources to ship off to someone. You could argue that making users…
That might backfire on an HDD and it's a very convoluted scenario (loading from disk and decompressing when hogging all of the CPU). Many people even with a quad core i5/i7 might have a small SSD just for Windows and…
UnrealScrip is explicitly said to be both statically typed and inspired by Java a lot[0][1]. It just had lots of language features dedicated to the game, like networking, state machines, being preemptively multitasked,…

I once wanted to have a Twitter account without a phone number attached to it. It got banned within 5 minutes of being created, I didn't use Tor, proxy or anything shady, a normal Chrome browser and a normal gmail…
It's called jury nullification and it's sort of up in the air whether it's legal or oath breaking (I have no idea as I'm not American). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jury_nullification
I would not. It's not reasonable that a pure data viewer runs something. This is like saying viewing a script in notepad can run it and is expected to infect you. And for better or worse antiviruses use 7z dll to scan…
I've read about this (public non virtual interfaces calling virtual functions that are meant to be overridden) for C++ a long time ago: http://www.gotw.ca/publications/mill18.htm
It's not really a mess for us Poles and that's my point, someone who hasn't used a language that butchers an alphabet extensively themselves shouldn't judge some other language's writing system just because they added a…
That was a reply to the person who has said that it's wrong to say Czech has 42 letters because Germans count their letters differently, not to you. I of course agree with there not being a problem with extra letters…
Really..? People do say that? That's a gross oversimplification of the problem of learning a language. Learning Cyrillic is nothing compared to learning pronouncing, listening, grammar and vocabulary. There are hundreds…
Are you really telling us Slavs that we are wrong in what we (and our governments, educational systems and language authorities) consider a letter in our native languages and should stop saying our alphabets have…
How would this help with any kind of Russian insurgency, espionage, etc. at all? According to the article there is 20% of ethnic Russians and more fluent Russian speakers (94%) than Kazakh speakers (74%). Russian is…
No way every book, websites, etc. gets rewritten, so between everyone knowing Cyrillic, lots of people knowing Russian and how easy Cyrillic is (I know it and I learned it very quickly) it'll end in a de facto digraphia.
It's very educational to dig into stuff that everyone takes for granted or even try implement your own version that does similar things (at a smaller scale and with less features, performance and security of course,…
Godot might be a special case because it's so well made by some Brazilian industry veteran (gaming is kind of a spartan environment, especially on consoles) and is very polished and kinda well funded FOSS project, it's…
