Thanks for the pointer to your interesting paper. My understanding is that TLS spec did not enforce non-repeating nonce, only suggested it and left it to implementers to decide whi…

I am pretty surprised how they allowed reusing IV. Unique IV is explicitly mentioned to be an assumption for AES GCM (first sentence in security section of AES-GCM wikipedia page) …

"We do not break the userland"

Great article, I'm bookmarking it so I can point to it if and when required ;p

Question is would we really get any benefits by this - compilation would take longer by some x amount which may or may not be less than the time linking step takes currently.

If you have looked at rust, you would understand that "Written in Rust" means something more than just the face value. Written in Rust means that there will be less memory/concurre…

Most commonly used software such as browsers can abort on OOM, this isn't about those cases at all. In conditions that you do not want to abort, usually you can and would want to a…

Ah yes, modern git for people using modern c++ If your plain old git works fine for you, there is no need to go looking for modern git IMHO.

A ASUS phone (zenfone 2) had this hardware superresolution feature you are talking about

So ... Microsoft has a a threat modelling tool. Wonder if it existed and used when these designs were made.

Excellent example of why one should attempt to limit attack surface.

Why do you say that? (genuine question)

If you squint hard enough, deep learning can be seen as programming. A computer (human) is used to train a model (write and compile a program). The generated model (compiled progra…

On second thoughts, maybe I underestimate developer productivity?

Fair enough, however I don't get how this ties up to "high speed trading systems". It can be said to be a general developer productivity advantage, not an advantage from technical …

Seems like bending over backwards to use Java. If you are using Java in a c-like fashion, what's so bad with C++ which is c-like by default and has some Java-like features?

Or you could get fzf innyour current shell for most of the features (the command history search, file preview/open, etc). Familiar syntax is a big plus though, a point on which mos…

I think there's an option in settings to select the primary display - if you set that to the external display, theoretically it should work. My laptop stops sleeping on lid close w…

Beware, there is a sign-in wall on this "free" introduction that comes up after a couple of topics. Edit: this seems to be the case only on the mobile version

There's thousand such threats to humanity that need to be prevented even right now. The real problem is determining which threat is real and prioritising. Think of it like you are …

Seems significantly slower to me on my 3G network compared to hn

They have video conferencing/video calling software.
