It works through the new UnsafeAccessorAttribute [1]. This provides the information needed for AOT to know what needs to be in the final binary and not trimmed. It also removes the…

This only works if credential guard has implemented a way to build a subsequent token/value from that secret. For things like basic auth the secret would need to eventually hit the…

The runas command doesn’t elevate just runs as another user. This is a console executable that drives UAC and also provides a way to capture the stdout/stderr elevated process whic…

Looks like Microsoft is trying to stop internal products from using MSI in favour of MSIX packages. MSIX is nice for interactive applications but has a few issues with dealing with…

I don't mind NRT but I hate dealing with C# projects that haven't set Enable in their csproj. It's not perfect because I know at runtime it can still be nullable but it's nice when…

They didn't just write the PEP, they implemented them.

That's the thing, you don't have to :) While I think uv is a great tool and highly recommend it, you are more than welcome to use any of the other build backends or package managem…

There shouldn't be any difference between those two values. I'm not saying you are wrong and it didn't break but it's definitely surprising a parser would choke on that vs YAML its…

& has no special behaviour in strings, backticks and $ on the other hand do. For example "&Some String&" and '&Some String&' are all the literal value `&Some String&`. Backticks an…

per-minute is really just a way to express the cost in a human friendly name. Doing per-hour, per-second, per-day could all result in the same total value just at a different numbe…

This seems a bit pedantic, while you may be correct (I honestly don't know what standard this is referring to) the UTF-8 BOM is a thing that some tools do know about. Even then in …

That's the realm side which should be upper case. The comment reference was for hostname themselves which I've always just done as lower case and have never seen a reason to make i…

The problem I have with using a gMSA outside of Windows is you need a Kerberos principal and credential for that principal in the first place to allow retrieving the gMSA details. …

The subsystem in question would be the one to handle the logic for the syscall. So the POSIX subsystem would use the reparse data buffer as needed. It's just that the Win32 subsyst…

No idea if the POSIX subsystem used NTFS or some other filesystem but if it was NTFS it probably just used the same reparse data buffer. It's just that Windows only added a symlink…

It had junction points and hard links but symbolic links were added in Vista/Server 2008.

They call them pico processes and have documented them quite well [1]. The pico processes has a userland and kernel component and is quite interesting from a technical perspective.…

Yep it’s been great to see the sites that try and track me vs them just doing it without me knowing.

This only works tor RSA keys and I believe ciphers that do not have forward secrecy. Quic is TLS 1.3 and all the ciphers in that protocol do forward secrecy so cannot be decrypted …
