But form factor and energy efficiency may be helped by some of the changes that producers are doing. Why complain about those, then? Diy is still possible. Looks like nas is becomi…

Looks like a bad offsite handling, both in your case and linked article. I feel that offsites work best when you let people interact on their own schedule, pace and topics. Trying …

What's the risk of NOT doing this? That's the problem. That's the risk that few (if any) hyperscalers want to take.

But this is Rust, not safe Rust, right? So, you still have a lot of ways to shoot yourself in the foot. Of course, the C -> unsafe Rust -> safe Rust is more likely to happen than j…

> How good are you at writing assembly? This is a false equivalence. A compiler is a predictable, testable, deterministic piece of software. An LLM is not. Sure, all abstractions l…

they are not bricking the units. just kindle store won't be available anymore, and the azw/epub version which is supported on your kindles won't be provided anymore by amazon anywh…

Looks like they'd like something git repositories (maybe with transparent compression on top) rather than .tar.gz files. Just pull the latest head and you're done.

And? Did I claim something different? I just didn’t use that feature on other OSes.

Well... I'm not sure what the author really wants to say. mmap is available in many languages (e.g. Python) on Linux (and many other *nix I suppose). C provides you with raw memory…

You are right. I linked a differently formatted article with the same content. I don’t know why I didn’t initially notice such text.

I’ll answer to myself: an RCE is very unlikely on any modern platform. DoS is possible. “ Impact summary: A stack buffer overflow may lead to a crash, causing Denial of Service, or…

Is this really exploitable? Is stack smashing really still a thing on any modern platform?

…and they did really guess an ipv6 address? Full scans of the ipv6 address space looks infeasible. Or did the sbc reach out to the internet thus having its address exposed? Otherwi…

I'd probably want some way to understand whether secret.Do is launched within a secret-supporting environment so that I'm able to show some user warning / force a user confirmation…

I have noticed the same for a lot of long-running software projects. The estimate is created at the start an never revised. Projects can and will fail or run late; but heck; a 6-mo…

I think this should become harder to do in general, not just for copyright infringement. A third party alleges an infringement, they do little work since it's AI generated, and the…

One thing the article doesn’t mention is that a lot of certs are revoked for purely admin reasons. CeasedOperations seems to be the case for Flair - nothing bad happened to the key…

A final mention of the “simplifying” Lamping-Veach algorithm would have been great: https://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/1406/1406.2294.pdf?ref=fr...

Afaik there are some ways to get approval for individual vehicles to be imported in the EU, even if non compliant with EU rules, for specific purposes and with a case-by-case basis…
