I am interested in the CPU intrinsics detection in a single header file, if you don’t mind dropping the link.

This does not seem to be the case. Elsewhere in the comments, neurobashing said their private relay works fine for an MVNO on T-Mobile.

Am I missing something, or is this article making a big fuss out of a relatively mundane privilege escalation? "MILLIONS AFFECTED, PATCH ASAP!" If you already have access to the machine , you can read physical memory and break KA

This is excellent information, thank you for posting this! I was not familiar with this example previously, but it is a perfect example of summary statistics not capturing certain distributions well. It's very approachable, even if y

I heavily caution against the feeling that "standard deviation is a simple way to essentially include percentiles." The usefulness of the standard deviation depends on the distributions that you are working with. Heavy tailed dis

Solid analysis, and a great read. I'm happy you posted this, as I was disappointed by the other Apple v Epic article that was making its way around HN today [0]. This article is significantly more substantive IMO. The author makes some

Probably not what you were going for, but an entirely digital wallet would substantially reduce the ‘pain in the ass’ factor of getting robbed.

J Kenji Lopez-Alt has a lot of great wok content for American kitchens. In [0], he uses a butane torch to get the smoky wok flavor (wok hei) in a standard kitchen. He also reviews outdoor wok setups for those who want something close to Chi

When you tried the carbon steel pan, was it properly seasoned? They stick like hell before they are well seasoned, but seasoning them gives the carbon steel its non-stick properties. Woks are the ultimate tool for this, as they are carbon s

I don't have an account, and the change has been noticeable and annoying. It's more than just clicking on another tweet, though from what I can tell they've been A/B testing this behavior (sometimes I get it and sometime

I agree completely. I have Windows at home for gaming, and Windows at work (because those are the laptops we get). It's rough. The only thing that makes this bearable is Windows Subsystem for Linux. Side note: if you end up dual bootin

Agreed, but that is not exactly difficult to do. Teams is a total dumpster fire.

I completely agree, and I am surprised your comment was the only that mentioned sales engineering. Like you, I took a sales engineering role for a technical product, and it was by far the best way for me to learn sales (coming from a softwa

You are exactly right. In fact, there are a number of approaches in this space: p4c-ebpf [0], p4c-xdp [1], and p4c-ubpf [2]. [0] https://github.com/p4lang/p4c/blob/main/backends/ebpf/README...

I would expect to see Intel pushing P4 heavily over the next year. P4 will almost certainly be involved in the roadmap for their recently released IPU (a SmartNIC needs some type of programmable substrate). Also, their data platforms grou

It may not be "standard", but Conan is a C++ package manager which IMHO is quite nice to work with. Not affiliated in any way.

GP stands for grandparent. In case you need an explanation: in the context of a forum, the parent comment is the one you are replying to, and the grandparent comment is the one your parent comment replied to.

Bloomberg was rightfully dragged through the mud (IMHO), and like the parent I am immediately distrustful of any technical stories they put out. The issue was not that the BMC hack was implausible, but rather Bloomberg's refusal to sup

Same thing happened to me! A few years ago, in addition to my normal job I had some 1099 Misc income. It was the first year I had taxes that I wasn't familiar with, since I wasn't sure how the 1099 Misc would come into play. As I

The article is a clunky representation of the original material. I would highly recommend listening to the podcast that is being quoted from [0]. It is only 20 minutes long, and both the interviewer and the named source Joe Fitzpatrick have
