Back when I was a physics student, I helped engineer exactly this experiment as a off-the-shelf solution for schools as a classroom experiment! We used PMTs mounted on top of coffe…

It strikes me that the former would profit from a strong type system, whereas the latter could profit from (enforced) strict aliasing.

Why exactly would it be too low-level for Rust?

I have to install an app to communicate with my child's state-sponsored daycare. I'll have to install an app to communicate with the teachers at his future school. Is this still fi…

Just an FYI: If I select "Features" / "API First" on your page, I end up at a 404.

I suppose they don't believe certain facts engineers are telling them. With Brexit it was coined "Project Fear". Now they're being told that adding backdoors to an encrypted servic…

This is only for Docker Desktop. The Docker Engine itself is free (AFAIK). If you're on Linux, you probably don't care about Docker Desktop at all.

I get why this is annoying. However, if you are using docker's registry without authentication and you don't want to go through the effort of adding the credentials you already hav…

You're essentially suggesting a Drake equation [1] equivalent for the number of security vulnerabilities based on NLoC. What other factors would be part of this equation? [1] https…

While it's not implemented, Rust even has a keyword reserved [1] for musttail, "become": https://github.com/phi-go/rfcs/blob/guaranteed-tco/text/0000... [1] https://doc.rust-lang.o…

IANAL. In Germany, something being true makes it non-defamatory [1]. > Wer in Beziehung auf einen anderen eine Tatsache behauptet oder verbreitet, welche denselben verächtlich zu m…

I'm not sure, most vendor camera apps were pretty much tied to the particular camera on the phone, on the phones I've had. For UVC, I usually needed to use another camera app. You …

Well, I opened them in a plain browser profile and in the non-translated page the options seem clear to me? The buttons literally say this: - Settings / Einstellungen - Accept / Ak…

That's what I'm wondering too. This is in uvcvideo, processing data from USB-connected cameras. So, maybe you can exploit it by connecting a camera to the USB port? That would be b…

I concede that cookie banners are not helpful here. I also admit that I rarely see them anymore, as uBlock Origin removes them for me. I probably shouldn't have assumed that the we…

At this time of day, I'd wager half of the users here are able to comprehend German texts. The other half knows how to use a translation tool.

It's 2025 and this new tool works on X, but not on wayland. We are lost.

> Setting an OS timer would make the thread use 0% CPU. “Regularly querying the system time and comparing to a limit” would not. As mentioned, this is the first case and can be ach…

Thanks, I've edited the list. :)

This article fails to separate the concerns one has with timers. There's three cases I see: The simple case is just putting a thread to sleep for a given time. It's somewhat odd th…
