I had a great teacher in primary school who introduced us to programming with Logo. We ran a variant called MSWLogo - it was my gateway drug, and how I learned what "paisley" was. Good times!

It came of kinda passive aggressive to me, to be honest!

This doesn't feel like very constructive feedback. Have you actually tried 4.0 yet, or were you too put off by the Discord link to proceed? IMO Audacity has never been particularly native-feeling, and I don't buy the McDonalds ana

Out of curiosity - how do you sync gyro data with video timecode?

I've heard that LLMs can perform worse with these more efficient representations compared to e.g. JSON, because they've seen far fewer examples of them during training. Do you know how true that is?

I think you're being oversensitive, especially in the context Raycast adding support for Windows. The whole purpose of Raycast is to improve productivity and UX, be that under macOS or Windows. It'd be a pretty shitty launch annou

> live video on the self checkout screen with the notice "Monitoring In Progress" That really winds me up too - it shows such contempt for legitimate customers.

I imagine it may not be a proxy in the true sense, but a headless browser that's "proxying" the application process rather than the network traffic itself.

There's a really interesting article from Tavis Ormandy about the instruction set and virtual machine used in RAR: https://blog.cmpxchg8b.com/2012/09/fun-with-constrained-prog... . The docs for the toolchain h

These guys are building foundational models for this purpose: https://reveng.ai/ . The results are quite compelling, and they have plugins for your favourite reverse engineering tools.

It'd be interesting to learn more about how this line was identified - was it by eye, or is there some neat analysis that was (or could be) performed to find it?

Yeah, this feels like a non-story.

Because they're interesting?

Nitpicking here, but you mean DHCP rather than NAT, right?

It's linked to at the end, but I'm surprised that this article didn't feature/mention ClickHouse's own write-up of this undertaking. Part 1 here: https://clickhouse.com/blog/building-a-data-ware

That's not a like-for-like comparison, though. ~2TB local NVMe storage included here, 10 (70%) more CPU cores, and more than twice the RAM.

There is some pretty creative swearing throughout this codebase - very entertaining!

+1 for OrbStack, it’s one of the few software subscriptions I pay for, and is worth every penny. Leagues head of Docker Desktop.

I'm curious as to how much paperwork was involved here. Was the pickle grounding out the transmitter and (presumably) interrupting the broadcast not an issue?

Is this also effective at detecting code duplication within a codebase?

I thought the same, until I realised I still had `/unsupported` in the URL. Spoofing a Chrome UA and dropping that path from the URL let me load (and use) Apple Maps fine under Firefox.

Maybe slight off topic, but does anyone know what the deal is with the NVMe K/V command set spec? There was a fair bit of noise made about it at the time, but I’ve not seen any drives that support it (despite a few enquiries)

I remember some crazy insecure drivers on Android drivers back in the day (2012-13 or so) -- stuff like `/dev/fbN` and `/dev/input/eventN` being world read/writeable, allowing unprivileged screen and input capt

That's what breakdown companies (like the AA and RAC in the UK) do. It's slow enough that you'd only want to use it to get just enough juice to get to a proper charger, though - they use 3.5kW or 5kW chargers: https:/&#
