Yes, I had to remind myself not to add the 0x prefix!

I like the theory that 42 was chosen because ASCII 42 is *, as in the wildcard character. It matches everything!

I could see someone tipping people like Foone who publish content primarily as stream of consciousness style Twitter threads.

Why not just sign the content with a digital signature?

You might have better luck sending SIGINT instead of SIGTERM using 'killall -INT ffmpeg' so that it exits cleanly.

This book is an excellent introduction to assembler design. I worked through it myself a while back and used the ideas to write my own assembler and loader for my calculator's embedded CPU.

I think it’s genius, but evil. Like you say, real email addresses have all been pwned so this is a way to test for bogus or typo’d email addresses. What a way to ruin a wonderful thing! Abusing the haveibeenpawned service in this way has wo

Why not? Can a comparison not be made to writing source code and the output of a compiler?

I can hear it without an AM radio! It's very clear but extremely quiet. My machine is muted and I'm trying to work out where in the world the audio is coming from. I wonder if it's just the speakers in this monitor picking

I'm not sure I'd go that far, but certainly one of the really nice things about Forth is that it's so easy to bootstrap up from just assembler into something usable.

Rachel's blog posts are brilliant for preparing for stuff like this. She's highlighted some great clues to look out for in the past, like seeing the constant 0x48545450 where it shouldn't be[1]. [1] https://rachelb

For our users we use Kerberos authentication with AD, rather than SSH keys. Once a user has a TGT on their desktop, ticket forwarding takes care of SSH SSO from there. The same TGT can also be used for other neat things like secure and tran

Not necessarily. When you live inside the wavefunction the outcomes of certain experiments very much look like a wavefunction collapse. MWI is a way to explain why that happens without having to have a special case where the universe has a

My lockdown project has been hacking up my CFX-9850G calculator. So far I have physically removed the ROM of the calculator and replaced it with a new ROM (I was able to get old-stock chips from aliexpress) flashed with a patched version of

It’s less common now, but I do remember helping multiple people in the past who had installed malware masquerading as “PC Optimiser” software. Usually these would contain big green buttons labelled something like “Optimise system RAM” and s

Imagine that you are standing on the equator of Earth, facing North. Now imagine a friend is also standing somewhere on the equator -- not too far away, but a fair distance -- also facing North. Now, if you both start walking you'll fi

There's an iOS app called Retrospecs that has some cool lo-fi filters.

I'm not sure that's true. I much prefer solving my 5x5x5 rather than my 4x4x4 because I always forget the algorithms for the extra parity that even cubes provide. I don't think I could solve a 6x6x6 with the 5x5x5 algorithms

I recently played an Asterioids cabinet at a retro gaming convention. The shots in particular are extremely bright. Perhaps the cathode ray sits there slightly longer than for the other lines so that it's brighter. I have a lasting imp

Not as pretty as OPs but I made this little game: http://extigy.github.io/primes/ I didn't really think about game theory or anything. I just had an idea and wondered how it would play.
