A poorly documented or undocumented (debugging) backdoor in a chip marketed for ATMs and medical hardware, enabled by default, at the very least qualifies as reckless endangerment.
Great article for April 1st! No, wait. It's August 7th. Wat.
I already have a second usable device and I don't mind the extra weight that much most of the time. It's called a laptop computer. As soon as we get to a point that Linux on the phone works at all, I'm happy to switch…
Thanks, I guess :D
It's not actually vulnerable. You're absolutely right. I made a critical error. It's NOT vulnerable. It' actually vulnerable. You're absolutely right. I made a critical error. It IS vulnerable. It's not actually…
> I've been able to formally verify that the Rust behavior is identical to the Postgres C behavior I thought you wanted to get rid of the bugs!
I think this a positive effect of LLMs, especially once these capabilities get into the hands of criminals and hostile foreign states, i.e. they will do maximum damage with all the safeties off. This will force everyone…
Thanks for the honest, load—bearing emojis.
Thanks for the PSA but I already knew that I wasn't gonna touch it with a ten foot pole.
> What if <common sense>? I find it baffling that some people had to find this out the hard way. You already knew that it's — if not more work — then at least more tedious to study existing code than write your own.…
I don't buy that minor being "sad" is all nurture and no nature. No matter what tempo or rhythm you put on it or what instruments you use to play it, it may not sound sad, it may sound dramatic and powerful instead, but…
It has been tacked on as a "totally not an integer" type because the integer system isn't extensible enough to accommodate it. It could of course be added with an ABI break (bumping intmax_t to int128), but that's not…
> C has a confusing array of machine-dependent types such as ptrdiff_t and size_t What's confusing about them? They're basically what int and unsigned int were supposed to be. It's just that they realized they had…
> You think the average user is going to explicitly whitelist When prompted by the browser on first login/signup, yes, the same way the password manager works. With stored passwords, keeping the login cookie doesn't…
No, but it's the obvious starting point. You can then put additional laws on top banning fingerprinting out of band (if you care about window dressing), fund development of anti-fingerprinting technologies, fund Tor,…
I made no claims as to whether misdirection is happening or feasible, only that there are incentives for both sides to do so if it is, while there are no incentives for Russia to take on a much larger enemy while it can…
Interwebsite is solved by partitioning and login cookies are solved by explicit whitelisting.
Don't fall for the "we are just stupid" propaganda, which is used constantly by governments acting in bad faith. Browsers already had settings for deleting cookies. There was never a reason for banners whose only…
That's where the mutants live. Also, there's a thousand year old, old New York City buried underneath that had bathroom booths with phones in them.
NATO not going total war over a few airspace incursions does not prove a lack of resolve to defend its territories. Russia is also not salami slicing its way to anything if it's not causing meaningful damage or…
The only loaded rhetoric is coming from you, I merely stated what the incentives are. Note that the situation is somewhat symmetric in that Russia also has an incentive to misdirect Ukrainian drones toward NATO airspace…
It's one of those systemd features that are annoying and in the way when you're trying to accomplish a specific task but deal well with shitware. To be fair to systemd, these features can't usually be implemented…
> Default Debian Trixie out of the box configuration without changing any systemd config file allows gnu screen to work as it always has. As mentioned in the second sentence of TFA. Debian enables linger by default.
Move by whom? Drones straying from the intended route is usually caused by jamming from the other side. Escalating tensions between Russia and NATO is in Ukraine's, not Russia's, interest.
Like all git operations that destroy history, it's a bit less scary than rm or unlink, because you can undo obvious fuckups using the reflog. Non-obvious fuckups will (by Murphy's law) only be detected long after the…
