I agree. Anecdotally, the last time LE had an outage that prevented my cert from renewing, it took about ~4.5 days from when I reported the issue to them to when they started looking and provided a workaround. Since this was a 90-day cert i

The bytes crate does support what ComputerGuru asked for via the Buf trait. The trait can be implemented over a sequence of buffers but still provides functions that are common with single buffers. For example the hyper crate uses the trait

I know of one format that serde's system doesn't support well. D-Bus requires empty arrays to be aligned according to the type of their element, but serde's system has no way to tell the serializer any metadata about the type

The script builds a list of "expected packages" for the host by unioning the `packages` files in all the roles of the host. Then it enumerates all the packages that are "intentionally installed" (*). If there's a di

As I said, a small shell script I wrote. The only things it needs to do are sync files according to the `filelist` files and sync packages according to the `packages` files, so I don't need the full verbose DSL of Ansible etc. Also it

The intent is the same, but as I understand it LLMs don't tokenize based on lemmas, though some of the tokens probably line up with them.
217.
by Arnavion 2y ago
IIUC the input to LLMs is tokenized not on word boundaries but some kind of inter-syllable boundaries, because then whatever the model associated with "task" will also apply to "tasking", "tasked", "taskma

Note that the FSF has no problem giving an RYF certification to hardware with unupdatable binary blobs, as long as those blobs reside in a separate chip like an SPI flash. It's not a measure of security or maintainability. Of course wh

I dabbled with NixOS many years ago for a much shorter time than the author has spent on it, so I have much less experience with it. My main problem with it was that the problem of declarative config is basically solved at the software-leve

If hashmaps only looked at hash(k1) == hash(k2) and not also k1 == k2 they would be quite useless as maps.

I wrote https://www.arnavion.dev/blog/2020-12-05-ddg-vs-google/ in 2020. The tl;dr is that Bing's (DuckDuckGo's) results were garbage and Google was giving the correct answer within the first five result

Sure. It also does it in Edge which is what all the articles are about, since Windows+Edge is the primary reason people end up using Bing by default.

by Arnavion 2y ago
Your second screenshot is scrolled up to show the top header bar that mentions Bing. The default page load scrolls down just enough to hide it (intentionally or otherwise).

You can also see it for yourself without needing Windows or Edge by opening https://www.bing.com/search?q=google in Linux Chromium for example.

defer-based cleanup also has the problem that, if the function plans to return a value it has to make sure to *not* defer its cleanup, and the caller then has to remember to clean it up. Destructor-based cleanup avoids these problems, but o

Yes, you can confirm if this is the case by going to "Your data in Youtube" and seeing if your comment still shows up there. If you click the direct link there it'll even take you to the video and highlight your comment. But

The ISA spec itself suggests one fusion - that of mul and mulh (lower and upper halves of n-bit * n-bit -> 2n-bit product). The only other source I know of was this 2016 paper that suggested specific macro fusions. https://arx

That said, an open ISA certainly invites people amenable to open-sourcing their implementations, which is why more exist for RISC-V than for x86 or ARM.

The risk is that HTTPS is something you have to manage. Either your hosting provider auto-renews certs for you (which might cost) or you set up your own automation (which can fail, and I've seen enough properties with expired LE-issued

This is not "attacking" RAM. A UEFI binary (or Linux kernel in the CCC demo which uses a different method to retain the key in memory) already has access to all the extents of physical memory. It just has to search it for the scri

If you're copy-pasting passwords from 1password into your browser you're making yourself vulnerable to phishing. The browser extension's autofill will at least check the domain name and prevent that.

When the situation you describe happens, the easiest thing for the distro to do is to make the two versions of libbaz coinstallable via different package names, different sonames, etc. This is how every distro, LTS or rolling, handled opens

by Arnavion 2y ago
That is a problem for LTS distributions. Rolling distributions do not have this problem.
