It's the "Rennes JS User Group" image that you see in the middle of the HTML page.

If you misrepresent that you are authorized by the company making the takedown request, that's literally the only thing that the DMCA considers to be perjury. So weirdly enough: * Not owning the copyrighted work and claiming you own it

If "CR" is the only bad byte, that means that 255/256 of the symbols are okay to use. That beats UTF-16 embedded in a string, where only 63481/65536 of the symbols are okay to use. My approach was to use very large inte

You won't be using gzip on compressed binary files (images, videos, audio, etc).

Let's say you took a document as a string, and split it up into words using a lot of string views. Every string view created would affect the reference count of the parent string. Then every time you work with the string views, savin

Really cool stuff there, how did you read the bytes back? Normally you get a CORS error if you try to use a network request to read back yourself.

I was working on a trick to save files in a more compact way by taking advantage of UTF-16 encoded HTML files. I have an example HTML files on my website here: https://www.dwedit.org/files/test.html (Tip: type "co

There's basically no distinction between a string view and an array slice. It's borrowing an array, and the view is nothing but a reference to the parent, start position, and length. But views are also implemented as a plain poin

by Dwedit 2y ago
The problem with string views is that they are borrowing the parent string, so you'd need to hold a strong reference to the parent string. This is easy to do in a garbage collected language, because you don't have to do anything.

There are extensions like "Save Page WE" that will dump the current state of the DOM to an HTML file, including CSS and Images, but these are static and don't make the scripting work.

I've seen programs blow up because they think they need to "canonicalize" the path, when all they actually want is a full path (a rooted path rather than a relative path). Canonicalizing the path resolves all drive letters an

SUBST makes use of NT Object Namespace Symbolic Links to register the drive letter. After running SUBST, you get an object named "M:" (or whatever your drive letter is") sitting in the "\??\" directory, its full pa

Being able to write BASIC programs and play games on a TI83 Graphing Calculator kept me sane through High School. That's not quite the same as a smartphone, as it has no communication features at all.

Two different ideas of what an exception is. One idea is merely a form of control flow (like 'if' or 'goto') that could jump down the call stack. This kind of exception handler could be made fast if necessary. The other

Virtual Channel Numbers let a station pretend to be on a particular channel number. The actual RF channel number doesn't need to match. But the channel number you key in using your TV remote does need to match the virtual channel num

HD DVDs all rotted from the red dye in the packaging. You can't play them anymore if they were stored in the original cases.

Unpacking could also be done with a 243-entry lookup table instead of doing math.

It's API sets that broke it, not SxS. You see these as the program trying to import nonexistent DLL files that start with the name "api-ms-win-". Dependency Walker can't handle those imports at all, it only deals with r

There is actual the ldd available on Win32, along with gcc, objdump, etc... It comes with the mingw or msys suite.

Great! Dependency Walker has been nonfunctional since Windows introduced API sets.

I would be very surprised if it supported files that are under LZX compression. (Not to be confused with Windows 2000-era file compression, this is something you need to activate with "compact.exe /C /EXE:LZX (filename)"

On 32-bit Windows, segmentation registers still exist, but they are almost always set to zero. CS (code segment), DS (data segment), ES (extra segment), and SS (stack segment) are all set to zero. But FS and GS are used for other purposes
