Great analysis! The Go binary was also compromised, but there's almost no information what the compromised binary did. Did it drop a python script? Did it do direct scanning? If trivy docker image was used, what's the scope (it do

In my case I'm decompiling into C and it does a pretty good job at translation. There were situations where it missed an important implementation detail. For example, there is an RLE decompressor and Gemini generated plausible, but sli

Reverse engineering with LLMs is very underrated for some reason. I'm working on a hobby project - reverse-engineering a 30 year old game. Passing a single function disassembly + Ghidra decompiler output + external symbol definitions R

Isn't it the opposite? From the link: Scores range from -100 to 100, where 0 means as many correct as incorrect answers, and negative scores mean more incorrect than correct. Gemini 3 Flash scored +13 in the test, more correct answers

Ah, the memories! Around the fall of the Soviet Union, there was an IBM-compatible clone called Poisk. It was not 100% compatible with with IBM PC, had 128 KB built-in RAM (extensible to 640 KB with a card), had CGA graphics with a composit

Which is really weird. Because the code is reverse-engineered and I'm 99% sure the author used Hex-Rays Decompiler (due to variable names, etc).

They're being used side by side and running in separate processes. For Campus Bubble, tornado app is a relatively simple push broker. Whenever something happens, Flask app pushes notification to a broker and broker pushes them in fan-o

There were requests to create read-only views, but they're domain specific and can be done with existing machinery.

Unfortunately, you can't compare development frameworks to UI frameworks. No one knows that you're a dog on the Internet. But anyone without technical knowledge can see a site that's built with the default Bootstrap skin and

Uh, that's typical rhetoric about default Bootstrap interface. Like if someone used default bootstrap skin then he's just lazy and didn't really care. Thus unprofessional. Personally, I think that Bootstrap interface is good

Flask-AppBuilder is opinionated fork of the Flask-Admin. It follows similar conventions and uses some of the Flask-Admin code, but comes up with non-default skin and a little more batteries (like user management interface out of the box). I

Mod is just a JAR file that's loaded into Minecraft process. So yeah, no protection whatsoever.

It is mostly number of documents and their size. Single schema. There are no indexes, so whenever client wants to find something in synchronized collection, it'll have to scan through all documents. With 10k documents it was locking up

Interesting enough, I found that Meteor is not production ready, in both current implementation (not mature) and some design decisions. I was thinking about writing blog post about it, but no idea when I'll have time to do it, so I dec

> Greenlets don't magically make synchronous libraries asynchronous! That's gevent! That's right - I wrote that they allow writing code in synchronous fashion and I didn't say that it happens automagically though. &gt

I'm just sharing my personal experience with both. And no, I prefer Flask (WSGI) and Tornado working side by side, in separate processes.
