Ah I found this https://ctrl-c.us/posts/test-goarch I guess it's qemu-user-binfmt registering the alternate bin formats to automatically run under QEMU, that's pretty neat

Wait is go test automatically running it under QEMU or what's going on here?

Hah, got it in 4 even though my first guess started with 'a' because I didn't know this was binary search yet

"They’d switch to a 4096 bit RSA key, but not only was I no longer able to mint my own API tokens, the legitimate ones I’d initially generated still worked." I wonder how the old J…

This is not really that worrying IMO - we already have weaponized toxins, viruses, and enough explosives to blow up the entire planet. So what if an AI can come up with something a…

Damn, unfortunate that you will revoke all these certificates if there is truly no security risk. This is likely going to break a lot of our users, or require manual intervention w…

Seems like a very simple email filter would do the job, for internal emails at least

Very often unpaid

Presumably order numbers are easily guessable, so the md5 really offers no protection at all in this case and is no better than just using the order number

You don't even need to store multiple hashes, just check both versions of the submitted password against the one stored hash

It really depends how you define automating. I tend to think of writing higher level languages and even libraries and functions as automating the repetitive low-level parts of prog…

Forests are basically carbon neutral once they're mature, peat bogs would probably be much more effective as carbon is continually sequestered underwater.

This article just showed me an ad with my exact last name embroidered on a t-shirt... Bit ironic

Top 10% in the world is not very high... Top 0.01% is still only top 100 in a city of a million, seems a bit more aspirational

Exactly the point - when apps charge too much, people will complain and alternatives will arise. From your second source: > "Dozens of locally owned services are proving there's a …

And they will become irrelevant if there are no good restaurants on their platform

Delivery is expensive and network effects are valuable. Price-fixing is already illegal

The restriction may have made sense during a pandemic, but long term this really seems like something for markets, rather than governments, to solve

Airpods Pro. Not traditionally an apple guy so didn't expect to like them, but the guy talked us into them while we were upgrading my wife's phone. Wow. These things are just way b…

> Often trade deals do include agreements about subsidies. Yes but it's complicated when you're dealing with China where the govt is heavily involved in many "private" cos

Yeah that's something I definitely need to do... Most people really can't afford it though

If you even have a main doctor (many Canadians can't find one) sure - then you wait 6 months to see the specialist who may/may not know what to do. My wife was recently in a car ac…

Right. Other governments are always going to subsidize though (unless you work that into the trade deals I suppose). Obviously any barriers to the success of US fabs should be remo…
