What is it that Go supposedly calls casting? The term (or its variations) does not show up in the language specification. People sometimes use it for type conversions but that's in…

I guess that basically everything you'd consider for production use allows you to configure queue sizes and related behaviour however you fancy.

For example, debug/pe ImportedLibraries(), which is supposed to return all the libraries that a module imports, was stubbed out to return "nil, nil" in a minor release [1] I just l…

> google's 'reference' layout Nothing to do with Google here, by the way. It's just the default format of the Unix date command. So if you can't remember the order, just switch to …

No longer true. Podman nowadays ships with an optional daemon that serves a Docker-compatible interface, so you can use docker-compose directly if that's what you want. See for exa…

This was never an intended feature. If I understand the article correctly, they were using an undocumented ("private") API which happened to stop working.

You can always use sendmmsg(2), writev(2) or other iovec-based APIs.

I don't like it either but it's not as bad as it sounds: the ban almost certainly isn't enforced mindlessly and with no recourse for the affected. I'm pretty sure that if someone f…

Most common distributions turn it on when running on a device with UEFI Secure Boot enabled.

So CentOS is actually getting better with a more open development model. Awesome.

Getting a hold of someone's secrets is not possible just by doing a pull request. It's really only about resource usage, at least when the runners in question provide sufficient is…

I don't think this is doing any HTTP. Autofs is generally used to mount remote file systems like NFS shares. It's pretty common on Unix-like systems (especially in multi-user envir…

It basically expects a string as the source and a fixed-size, not necessarily zero-terminated, buffer as the destination.

> As a website owner myself, I’ve had to make changes about once a year to keep things running properly in Chrome due to deprecated APIs Does this refer to standard Web APIs or Chr…

This is asking for a different thing, though. % taskset 1 nproc 1 % taskset 1 getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN 8

Seems reasonable to me: this way, you don't have to duplicate the BOM stripping in the decoders of every single format you want to support. It's also more general as there are othe…

This one is an informational RFC though. No internet standard.

No. QUIC is a transport protocol. Its purpose is roughly equivalent to TCP: provide a reliable byte stream transport over an unreliable datagram service (IP, though QUIC prepends a…

Not libc. The stack probe was inserted by the compiler when compiling the vDSO (part of the kernel, but mapped into user processes) with certain ricer^Whardening flags enabled.

Actually, it used to be called just that.

Even for moderately complex designs the synthesis times are way too long for that to be feasible. Unfortunately, a lot of it is inherent to the problems/algorithms involved. So get…

I find it somewhat odd that Peter ascribes the valuing of stability and backwards compat to some weird Google-specific mindset, unheard of in other circles. Instead, you can observ…

Any guesses on how to interpret the description? > An authorization issue discovered in the CI jobs token handling allowed read access to public projects with restricted repositori…

I'd be more optimistic if you had included a note that you know the history of CAcert ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAcert.org ) and have a plan on how to tackle the issues that …
