It's difficult to find a succinct overview. Here is a slide deck buried among links: http://www.capstone-engine.org/BHUSA2014-capstone.pdf

Oh, I thought this was an OSS remake Dune II. How sad... heh.

OMG, I remember copying official 5.25 disks back in the 90s...

Nice! P.S. who remembers the legendary Phrozen Crew cracks? They were minimal byte patches that often toggled a conditional jump in an MS-DOS app/game...

Is there x86-x64 assembler? If so, I would have put that on the front page...

LOL, shout out to SEN - I used his tool, Hiew back in 1994 for the first time. Good times. P.S. I still use it from time to time - it has a nice built-in assembler for x86/x86-x64.…

LOL, behold the MS-branded VNC!

Did they fold the LSM idea? What about the single global namespace in which all records live?

Oh, wow, that's right. That note is here: https://sqlite.org/src4/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki

LOL, I remember compiling a tiny C program that sent a TCP packet to NT 4.0 to trigger a hang...

All good critique. Not sure whether it's better to overload a command or force users to remember multiple ones... I used Mercurial 12 years ago before learning Git - it was a great…

LOL, someone told me in an interview that they are a C++ expert. I asked them if that refers to their company, or the wider community, or the C++ Committee members or the C++ compi…

Oh no... am I the only one disappointed that they made it fold the wrong way? I was hoping for a phone that's half the size of Pixel7 when folded...

LOL, here is my C++ implementation of the same concept: https://github.com/os12/calc

LOL, nice! I wrote something quite similar a few years ago: https://github.com/os12/calc

For the ones too lazy to RTFA: VIII. CONCLUSIONS AND FUTURE WORK In this paper we presented LightCommands , which is an attack that uses light to inject commands into voice-control…

She is the CTO. So, let's rephrase your statement: "If she were your boss, ...."

CA voter here - I believe that's correct to an extent. This is a blue state so you cannot influence presidential election here. However, there are local policies/measures/propositi…

...and adjustments have been happening over many decades. That's why, say, California has many more electoral votes (55) than Montana (3). Yet it's still not completely proportiona…

I think the word you are looking for is "quadratic".

So, here a line from their "Consolidated Statements of Operations": Other income (expense), net: 139, (16), 4,993 The three numbers representing 2016, 2017 and 2018. The company is…

Lyft, Uber, Yellow Cab, Local Shitty Cab.

Well, the financials look shady to me: $900 loss and no plan in sight. Perhaps the IPO euphoria was that short-lived? Regarding the post-ipo crash - yeah, FB did that. Yet they tur…

Well, I would like to get a Model 3, yet I want Tesla to get glitches out of their production first. I am sure v2 will be much better (sw/hw issues, trim quality, gaps etc). And th…

I don't think that is possible. I used early versions of IDA Pro on MS-DOS in 1996... and it had the core analysis and interactive disasm mode then. Ghidra seems to be based on thi…
