Both Debian and Ubuntu provide snapshot mirrors where you can specify a date to get the package lists as they looked at that time.

8MWh is equivalent to a few hours of electricity generation of a wind turbine.

One major downside is that it becomes really hard to do transactions, especially across multiple files. If you store mostly immutable data though like git (where except the refs ev…

I for one enjoy the convenience of automatically installing python versions. Yes I know how to do it manually. Yes it is possible to install multiple versions. But that does not me…

The limit could depend on a lot of other things. In theory, it's possible that you are paying 100% of revenue on debt service yet still the best option is to take on more debt. Thi…

My argument is that you typically also check other properties, like properties describing what your program should do. These other properties likely wouldn't be satisfied by a nop …

Yes, that is a limitation. But this limitation is not too bad. In many cases, a bug in the translation simply makes the proof impossible. Somebody then investigates why the proof d…

Do you know if redispatch costs are included as part of your transmission costs and how much they are? Because if they are, then investing into the transmission lines can decrease …

I am no economist but couldn't it be that raising pay in few sectors does not cause inflation? I would think that depends on what the people receiving more money spend it on. If th…

How does rust do bounds checking for slice accesses if the length is not stored?

JVM also has jstack and other tools like jprofd to introspect running vms.

Construct a TM which enumerates all possible variable assignments and checks if the SAT problem is satisfied then halts if so. You can construct this TM in polynomial time, and it …

But it breaks down if you have cross-language cycles, because no garbage collector of either language will see the full cycle.

Maybe I've missed it, but I didn't find anything in the article about whether the vaccine does need to be discontinued or not. In any case, being clear about what side effects are …

Well, turning a static binary into a docker image is basically just adding some metadata on how to run it. Whereas turning an image into a static binary is much harder, so it makes…

Last I tried, telegram desktop on Linux didn't support e2e encrypted chats which is sad.

Though deprecated, https://github.com/yandex/gixy is a nice checker for these kind of issues.

For some cryptocurrencies, a 51% attack would only be able to halt the network (prevent new transactions) but wouldn't be able to cause a double spend or other safety failures.

norway, according to this article: https://www.theguardian.com/money/blog/2016/apr/11/when-it-c...

Does wireguard support storing keys in a hardware device, so that the cannot easily be exfiltrated if the machine is compromised? You want that for security critical infrastructure…

Note that at least on Linux, deploying a keylogger to exfiltrate the password for a SSH key is not hard either. Even if a keylogger is somehow not possible, you can probably still …
