To the people arguing it's "fair use" to use this for training an ML network. Where do you draw the line? What if you train an "ML network" with one or two inputs... so that they almost always "generate" e

It's a shame the fork doesn't use better commit messages than they do. For example, "Fixes" is the entire commit message for https://github.com/temporary-audacity/audacity/commit/d9f30b...

So is there any reason at all to use the original ARM64 ABI? Adding another ABI seems like a huge undertaking. Isn't the original ARM64 windows ABI a fairly recent invention, too? Too bad they didn't make it "ARM64EC" fr

The newtonsoft json dlls (and other) distribution contains different dlls in different folders called "net45", "netstandard2.0", "portable-net40+sl5" etc. So it is obviously more than just a specification, si

This exactly! The branding and versioning of .NET is a complete disaster. There's .NET Framework (where even simply getting the current runtime version requires several convoluted hoops, since System.Environment.Version has gone the wa

maps.me was sold and the app went downhill pushing some crypto wallet stuff and a ton of tracking/affiliate/ads stuff. I briefly looked over the github commits earlier when this fork started and there seemed to be dozens if not hu

I did something similar to bring a legacy cable-only printer online for wifi clients where there were no cabled uplink. Worked well. Tried to add airprint with cups as well but that was hit&miss. parprouted & dhcp-helper are secret

I think what many of us want and expect is a bullet proof permission system for the app store that doesn't contain surprises, gotchas, and magic entitlements that are ripe for exploitation (see for example PsychicPaper)

The "Clips" app is not as first party as the built-in camera app is. I mean, it still comes from Apple, but it is ONLY distributed as an additional download in the app store. You know, via the same app store we're supposed to

Because the mere fact that an entitlement for bypassing permission prompts exists, means that non-apple apps could try to exploit it (see for example the PsychicPaper exploit). Designing in such a huge hole in the permission system just mak

Another weird example is how Apple's own "Clips" app has a special private entitlement that bypasses the permission prompt for camera access. Would it hurt them so much to prompt for camera access the first time the app is st

No, you can do it blindly. For example, if you have a web page that has an <img> tag pointing to a specific domain, then you can assume the client will perform a DNS lookup, so you can send fake replies blindly, hoping it will match a

The random mixed-case patterns are used to reduce the probability that someone evil could send spoofed DNS replies to your queries and have your DNS resolver trust those fake replies.

I wouldn't say it's obvious. There's some careful decisions in the design that might not be obvious at first sight, such as having upper and lowercase characters be the same save for a single bit.

I don't think so? Aren't UCS surrogate pairs at most 16bit each by their very purpose? Also, >16bit unicode code points came much later, I believe, in Unicode 2.0 in 1996 according to Wikipedia (vs UTF-8 which is from around 19
