A neat trick I was told is to always have ballast files on your systems. Just a few GiB of zeros that you can delete in cases like this. This won't fix the problem, but will buy yo…

Good showcase. Your code will match the first parameter that has as a suffix, no necessarily exactly (username=blag&name=blub will return blag). It also doesn't handle any percent …

Props to Intel duping AMD to buy Xillix for whooping $50B

I'm German and had a startup in Germany (standard UG holding + GmbH). My one advice to anyone thinking of starting a company is: don't do it in Germany. Tax burden, insane bureaucr…

As a long time vim users, elisp is something I always envied the emacs guys for. I love vim and bram but viml is a pos. The result were a multitude of language bindings. Of course,…

I quoted this, in full, in my MSc thesis. It's both a light hearted introduction to the Halting Problem and something you need to reference quite often when writing about static pr…

Funny and a good reminder that there is much money to be made from just packaging code off Github in a usable UI and providing binaries for the 99%.

It has a lot to do with Google. MS Research it a pretty good example how to turn your industrial research into products.

Finally a reason to update from 4.2.0

Good news for cryptographers in case we need an alternative to LWE and coding-based PQC.

It's an integral part of my workflow now. I love it. My common use cases are - generating doc comments that are 99% correct - completing boilerplate like error handling (f- you gol…

I got these on Brave on two different computers. Disabling hardware acceleration fixed it. Both had Intel graphics.

The work on stboot and it's supporting components, including documentation was moved to it's own Gitlab: https://git.glasklar.is/system-transparency/core/stboot

I'm not sure what you mean. BTC is up 29x since 2017 while QQQ is up 1.8x

I'm not sure whether this is sarcasm, but in case it's not: I do.

If you want to know whether your TPM is vulnerable I wrote a simple tool to check that: https://github.com/immune-gmbh/tpm-vuln-checker

How do I get continuous deployments without k8s? I value being able to deploy new code quickly, easily and fearless, especially in high speed low drag environments like startups. I…

I not sure whether that satire. In case its not, most languages that allow inline assembly (like C) have an optional "clobber list" argument that tells the dataflow analysis of the…

Impressive. I wonder how much of this was planned by CZ.
