    I've written something like this for NixOS a while back [1], which generates infrastructure diagrams directly from the source of truth (albeit not as pretty as isoflow). I'm sure t…

    This is great if you only have a single disk, but if you have multiple encrypted disks that are unlocked in the initrd this way, then if you can gain control flow by faking data on…

    I can think of plenty real world usecases. Take for example a network interface that can send or receive predefined packet structs. Imagine each packet requires a size header. When…

    And additionally I would't want anyone on my network path to be able to read what data I exchange - even if it is a static site.

    Not parent, but I'm doing the same thing and I have had 5 leaks out of (currently) 387 accounts over the past 4 years (which is when I started doing this). Oh and none of the invol…

    I haven't looked at the project but would assume that several people generated their wallets by using this tool. The attackers were thus able to generate keys for existing wallets …

    Just a battery would be the simplest option. Just measure time until empty. If you want higher time resolution, there are several fully integrated hall effect current measurement I…

    Nothing here requires uploading the image to some form of cloud service. Do the recognition locally - maybe on a phone connected via Bluetooth. Never have any information leave the…

    If anyone wants to learn about GPS from the ground up, there's an excellent website with interactive explanations by Bartosz Ciechanowski that I can wholeheartedly recommend [1]. H…

    I for example just wouldn't like anyone to be able to see what data I exchange with any server, be it small profile blog or a login page.

    esc esc esc :qa! (8 strokes) This is the shortest I can think of right now, 3 esc to exit Ctrl-v, Ctrl-r and insert mode, then :qa! to quit even if there are splits or modified bac…

    Yes, and it's quite comfortable. If you don't want to use external media, many boards also come with a builtin UEFI shell which is quite powerful. From there you can simply execute…

    I got fed up with ansible and pyinfra and created a new tool [1] to fix some of the issues I've had. I spent weeks on documentation, yet it is kind of useless. There simply are ind…

    I'm actually kind of glad that X11 forwarding didn't stick. TUIs are generally efficiently navigatable using just the keyboard, a property I very much enjoy and frequently miss in …

    Then the next heartbleed could be a sidechannel not covered in your theorem. Better prepare in any case.

    You might want to have a look at systemd-nspawn [1], which is basically containerized chroot based on linux namespaces. [1] https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd…
