But even the unreasonable must first see the world as it is, so that he can adapt it to himself. I'm not advocating that we accept the status quo, but I do take issue with not seei…

I think it just means he was really bad at it.

Far as their public stuff goes, I'd tend to agree with you. If the OpenBSD folks published a course like this, though...

To me it falls in a similar category as how highly intelligent people are less likely to be overweight. I think that with intelligence comes a better sense of how to control onesel…

I'd predict they have a plan to replace it with some GitHub-specific metadata. That would enhance lock-in and follow the usual Microsoft strategy.

Yeah. If there's an evolutionary aspect to the increase, we should expect to see c-sections as a generational phenomena, and correlated with cranium size. I wonder if that study ha…

I'm guessing there'll be a big uptick in adoption once zig passes 1.0. At least for me, I'm just waiting until the syntax stabilizes, so I don't have to change my code later on or …

I think that's why sleep has been called the 'little death' since ancient times. In a sense, you die every time you sleep, and wake up a slightly different person. Edit: ya'll have…

I imagine there's a psychological barrier to upgrading a plan. Make the customer break that barrier on their own, due to the necessities of their current usage, and they'll have le…

The articles I linked used the two words interchangably. Clearly that distinction isn't relevant to the layperson audience. You're just playing with words.

If these were internal memos among domain experts, then understanding the nuances between "100% effective" and "immune" would be expected. But when the vaccine is being sold to the…

Ok, let me quote exactly what I just said: "We're talking about if they were ever claimed to be 100% effective....if you overpromise at the beginning, you lose your credibility, an…

Yes, it was. But they'd be very happy for you to forget that. https://www.cnn.com/2021/03/31/health/pfizer-vaccine-adolesc... https://www.webmd.com/vaccines/covid-19-vaccine/news/2…

Thanks!

Yeah, that's why I figure it's the bit of loose solder that's the ultimate cause. My solution was to remove the whole mechanism and the solder with it.

Looks like there's one here: https://github.com/hfiref0x/VBoxHardenedLoader/blob/master/B... Alternately, it seems that QEMU on linux does a pretty good job as well.

Thanks, I'll try that.

Good point. I guess that would be relatively easy to check for programmatically. What else is there that could possibly indicate virtualization? Available instruction sets? Strange…
