I’m referring to use of process (sometimes with a partial assist from qualified tools, of which Rust is NOT one) for safety assurance, not the language. As is done in safety and se…

They weren’t “my” cubic fractals in the mid-90s any more than Paul “created” a fractal out of z^3/(z^3+1) + c in 2020. Pretty pictures on his blog are fine, giving it a name and at…

That is some hubris for Paul to claim to have “created” this fractal in December 2020. Yes he coded up and rendered some nice images from this particular function. But this class o…

But this isn’t about websites or just publishing articles or the weather. It’s about web applications, commerce, products, things with customers not just readers. As soon as you ha…

Completely bad faith reply when your example uses zero CSS, no HTML links even, and the only script to distinguish it from a bare static text document is google analytics malware. …

There was no “context” provided whatsoever, not even in the link.

If you knew a lot you would stop digging.

Oh it’s possible and people do it in embedded all the time at great expense, but that safety isn’t assured by using a “safe” language, it comes from the requirements, documentation…

It didn’t even exist half a year ago and there is zero in the title or the linked markdown file to give any context at all as to what this “Pi” actually is or what telegram integra…

Not necessarily. Rust safety relies on OS primitives and the error here is in an OS primitive itself (kernel semaphores). Yes Rust is one language that can be widely deployed in sy…

Tell us you know nothing about kernel programming and trust stacks while you are at it.

Much like many cameras process and discard the RAW sensor data after processing to pixel data if not further compressing and discarding the processed pixel data to a lossy image fo…

The whole premise of the article is fallacious analogies and mixed metaphors. Yes a restaurant that poisons 2% of its customers is a bad restaurant. A restaurant that has nothing f…

I love lynx as much as anyone but it is ludicrous to expect webapp developers to support no script and no CSS.

Right. That problem is bloat, not lack of legacy support. Adding (already bloated) legacy support to already bloated software just makes bloat worse.

This goes to show you’ve never been anywhere near the actual development cycle of a real-world front-end web application. “So, there is a baseline "target subset of HTML/CSS" that …

Seems like you’re getting hate but this is how the world works. Uber just has to support the devices that their market uses. And especially for visas the government is free to make…

I would say it’s the opposite. coreutils is core utils, you cannot write shell scripts without them, they are widely and almost unavoidably used in trusted environments. They are a…

SpaceX has nothing to do with any part of the Artemis II crewed lunar fly-by. They were considered and rejected. It was entirely legacy aerospace contractors. SpaceX is under contr…
