I'm going to fucking crash out if another person says they're making a browser and their inline layout does this shit[1] I swear to god. I held off on commenting on the last AI bro…

It seemingly did but after I saw it define a VerticalAlign twice in different files[1][2][3] I concluded that it's probably not coherent enough to waste time on checking the correc…

There's a technique known as "NaN boxing" which exploits the fact double precision floats allow you to store almost 52 bits of extra data in what would otherwise be NaNs. If you as…

Using non-printable characters to encode malicious code is creative, but I wouldn't say it "breaks our security model". I would be pretty suspicious if I saw a large string of non-…
