To some extent, what they do is stronger that the other contestants, who I understand don’t formally prove their answers.

This is an interesting point. The word fault somehow implies that something’s wrong - from the eu regulator’s perspective, what’s happening is perfectly normal, and what they want : at some point, the advances in insert new tech are not w

Being allowed to talk to the kernel to get info and running with the same privileges ( basically being able to read / write any memory ) is different.

You might be interested in the rather spectacular upgrade to it, called pernosco : https://pernos.co/ It’s based on rr ( same author ) but vastly better

This is very elegant. I’ve had my share of nasty system bugs ( compilers and kernels ) , but the dedication and the speed with which he went through it is quite remarkable. The explanations are also very clear. Thanks for posting.

Why the difference between servers and desktops ?

We're running something similar ( not CS ) where I work. It seems to me that these tools create lots of problems ( slows down the machine significantly in particular, gets things wrong and quarantines processes/machines when it sh

Their target is hpc users, not ml researchers. I can understand why this would be valuable to this particular crowd.

I haven’t contributed code to it, but I’ve read lots of code in it ( for work reasons ) - I really like the golang compiler and library codebase. About codebases I’ve written code for, the best one strived for simplicity, and was driven by

Yes I confirm it works - I’ve been using this very behavior for years

I remember when h264 appeared. At that time, I was obsessed with mplayer and would download and build the latest releases on a regular basis. The first time I got an h264 file, mplayer wouldn’t read it so I had to get the dev version and bu

I second that. I wrote a nes emulator twenty years ago because it was fun, and not for any practical purpose. I had no idea what I was doing, but I remember being in awe of the nes after reading the detailed hw spec ( found on zophars domai

I dreamt of Zip drives back in the days - I never quite understood white they didn’t become standard, much like usb drives would become later.

I did. Before the internet, I read just about everything I could find - there might valuable information in it !

Are you referring to the rootkit that came with audiocds in the early 2000s ?

I’ve been waiting for something like that in the HPC space for years - that’s what I wanted when HSA first came out. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterogeneous_System_Architect...

Indeed - I’m not sure why it bothers me so much, but I can’t concentrate when the screen jumps around.

The website is very painful to read, with elements appearing or disappearing whether you scroll up or down. It was so distracting that I had to stop reading, in spite of my really wanting to understand what was written.

Same here - I was interested in the mechanics of the crack, having spent a fair amount of time reverse engineering binaries back in the days. This is just a bunch of screenshots with ‘lol’ interspersed.

I very much like this. I wonder whether this will eventually lead to collaborative proofs , and ‘ bug fixes’ , essentially turning maths into a process similar to code on GitHub.

Ah ! I had indeed misunderstood you, thanks a lot for the clarification. We definitely agree. I thoroughly enjoyed bg3, and remember feeling no resistance because things would play out the way I wanted them to happen. Apart from the occasi

I love that game, along with Fate of Atlantis and Day of the Tentacle - but this has to be my favorite one. For some reason I never quite understood, it wasn’t that well received when it came out. My stance on this one hasn’t changed in 27

I was a huge adventure game fan back in the 90s, and I also completed BG3 a few months ago ( it took me a solid 6 months to finish the game ). Quite frankly, I truly think there are no puzzles whatsoever in bg3. Very very very occasionally

That’s pretty sophisticated - kudos to the author. I love this.

Well, I’ll take both fixing the symptoms ( loved one can’t control their anger and hurts everyone around them ) and the syndrom ( therapy sessions to understand the cause of the anger ). Now, based on my experience dealing with such situati
