    Right ... While we do that, let's also retype the assembly code the compiler produces, do the linking manually and check you got the same result as the linker, and then finally wri…

    His name indicates a troll.

    It's even funnier because an attack, until proven otherwise, should make you assume the data has already left the environment.

    We had that almost 80 years ago for a few decades, but we shot a guy at the end of it. I hope the next one to suggest something like this remembers the history and refrains from it…

    It's funny the page recommends de-Googled phones, but requires a Google service(reCaptcha) to view the page.

    I think EU is warming up to the possibility that relying on US tech is has strategic consequences.

    Unfortunately it is a bit more complicated than that. All these phones run firmware, bootloaders, libraries under license from SoC providers, who package components from other vend…

    When cores start needing more than 9 bits to be represented and RAM is in terabytes, many of the old assumptions need to change. Schedulers need to be implemented in userspace, RAM…

    If we are successful building an "ultra" human AI, it will require massive amounts of energy. That translates directly to "money". There will always be money unless someone finds a…

    The dependency tree for anything in the software world is so large, that liability like you describe is not feasible. Tomorrow Anthropic's latest model will find a RCE in SYNs bein…

    Others have already replied this is not exactly the case and it's trafficking weed and other drugs that gets you hanged. That being said, I'm not so chill about weed. Weed people, …

    Statistically, I would look at deaths from that age group among space flight science and compare this "blip" to the p50. I don't think it's easy to say if 11 deaths/disappearances …

    乒乓. I don't know how it could be more clear that it's not "table tennis".

    I'm so happy that EU and UK have laws against this kind of thing and so I will still be able to work somewhere in the future(TBD what future means, though).

    Local AI is almost impossible right now with the prices of RAM and GPUs and the sizes of decent models. No way spending even an optimistic 10k, but more likely 20k, on a setup that…

    While everything said here is true, I find that in JavaScript world depending on a package that was last changed 8 years ago, complete as it may be, is asking for trouble. For your…

    Because unless you can fund several teams - kernel, firmware(bios,etc), GPU drivers, qemu, KVM, extra hardening(eg. qemu runs under something like bpfilter) + a red team, security …

    Agentic workloads create and then run code. You don't want to just run that code in a "normal" environment like a container, or even a very well protected VM. There are other optio…

    Everyone thinks this bubble will continue until AGI(bulls) or until someone calls them on it(bears). I think it will continue until someone finds a quick way to make cheap energy(b…

    While this is true, improvements in the TLS issuance process should also improve security. When the eventual deprecation of TLS-ALPN-01 and DNS-01 comes, this new method would be c…

    It would be so nice of that tax was actually "burned"(similar to proof of stake), instead of being used to fund even greater inflation. This comes in the form of a huge administrat…

    I don't think that's what GP is saying. This report would be more believable and more objective if it would have other types of metrics than just self-reporting ones. There is a ki…
