You can actually do a lot without root sometimes. You can revoke permissions and disable apps.

Specifically, this looks like a drawing of the character Fluttershy. If it is an OC mascot, that would be weird because it looks just like her.

Thank you for the detailed reply. I just recently started playing with Tauri, so I was not aware. I also heard that gtkwebview is slow as dirt. Sounds like verso support can't come quick enough.

Can you expand on that? The point of an appimage is so you don't have any dependencies or linking errors. Rust can still link to libraries, so that doesn't seem to be a weird pattern to me. Electron appimage would be weird though

A crash is always better than OOB memory reads. All of these are crashes except the C++ one. The rust one is from 3 years ago and listed twice. This article is about the frequency of these bugs, not their existence. C and C++ are the only l

I don't understand why anyone would continue working on the c++ project once the rust one started beating it in performance

Spoiler alert if you haven't read it. This happens in The Three Body Problem as well. A second ship is sent after the first and surpasses it. It's a great series.

Absolutely not. It felt so laggy and buggy ~1 year ago. I think resizing my screen broke it at the time? And now it's loaded with AI and shortcuts overrides. I switched to my custom fork of stinkpot posted a few days ago here, and it&#

This is for people unfamiliar. According to the Wikipedia page, it looks like slashdot effect was declining in 2005. 21 year olds today are younger than the decline, so it's safe to say a bunch of people probably haven't heard o

For anyone else wondering, I guess Slashdot was an old website like Reddit. Like the "Reddit hug of death" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slashdot_effect

jj does not have large file or submodule support, but it does intend to in the future (you can read their design docs). Right now it's git compatible, so I'm not sure how 'permissions' would be stored compatibly, or what

Note that this is not what the article is about. Bash has a fake /dev/tcp path that opens sockets. What you have there is just perl opening a socket normally. Great solution, but the interesting bit is that fake path.

I like the fun in this article, but some nitpicks don't seem right to me. This kinda reminds me of cinemasins. 1) I would assume his dad talked about always having a backdoor as a kid, so that's why Sam tried backdoor as the secon

Falling apart? You mean getting stronger? Every single one of these is an existing hole being patched. It isn't making new holes

How reductive. Sure, there are paper mills and non-reputable colleges that hand out degrees, but that's clearly not what the author is writing about ('lecturers' there won't care about students cheating anyway). So with

Millions of users, and you think exactly zero of them will hand over their credit card info?

This is really cool. Most people here are whining that you, a college student, aren't acting like an adult. I hope you can look past that; it's supposed to be hacker nature to do stupid stuff like this. It bothers me that most com

I hed to look this up, so here's a correction: it was one large line logically split, not smaller lines. So you can't select, say, a long compact JSON line. Still not fixed: https://github.com/wezterm/wezterm&

When I tried Wezterm last year, you couldn't select more than 3-5 lines of text. I went to fix the 'bug', I found that it was intentional because it allocates a string and copies multiple times every time you click and drag.

You may be surprised to hear that many people work to make a living and then just go home. Not every employee has to drink the kool aid to make a living.

You can . But this makes intent clear. If you clone a git repo and see build/ with only a gitkeep, you are safe to bet your life savings on that being the compiled assets dir.

Yeah... I don't think you were wrong. Having 100 tiny gitignores makes finding out why something is excluded annoying. Our policy is one root level gitgnore and gitkeeps where required. Some devs will just open the first gitignore they

Points 3, 4, and 6 are directly related to AI. 5 is indirectly related

Your first point only holds if nothing ever changes in the programming world. People write new languages and frameworks all the time. How do you compare dates in pandas? How about polars? Duckdb? Etc.

I doubt it. Ghidra is extremely extensible with their plugin/tool architecture. Public Ghidra includes the extremely helpful decompiler tool, and a few others, but I'm willing to bet that NSA uses regular Ghidra + some way more ca

That argument is not going to hold up for long though. Someone can prompt "improve the open source projects I work on", an agent 8 layers deep can do something like this. If you complain to the human, they are not going to care.

There is something to be said about that. Firefox does keep inserting it's 'helpful features' like Pocket on users, which is very annoying. My point is just that everyone is so critical of Firefox, when the alternative is dis
