I don't get this. If they are using power series, aren't they in practice still getting an approximation of the result anyway? Why would this be a better way of approximating the solution of a polynomial equation?

But not putting the limits, leaves the door open to a different class of outages in the form of buffer overflows, that additionally can also pose a security risk as could be exploitable by an attacker. maybe this issue would be better solve

ln -s /dev/urandom /dev/zipbomb && echo 'Boom!' Ok, not a real zip bomb, for that we would need a kernel module.

I guess it depends on the server's implementation. but, since you need some logic to decide when to serve the html bomb anyway, I don't see why you would prefer this solution. Just use whatever script you're using to detect t

I second this: depending on the context, there might be a more graceful way of handling a response that's too long then crashing the process.

Because then, if something that is expected to compile doesn't compile correctly, you know that you should check your compiler version. It is the exact same reason why you don't just specify which library your project depends on b

Yes, checking a specific false positive would be trivial and extremely fast[0], as it's just about summing two numbers. But, if the server doesn't do the check, having the site report a counterexample to Goldbach's conjecture

Yes, and I think this is actually more likely than someone intentionally modifying the code and finding a counterexample. Related, I'm now wondering what would happen if someone sent in a fake result claiming to have found a countere

A related thing: wasn't PopcornTime using bittorent to stream movies? Did it have any notable difference from Bittorent or any notable issue/drawback? I never used it, but it sounded like a big thing at the time.

I agree this is not a good strategy, but I found it curious that Kotlin seems to have stalled and maybe is even declining. After all, it really seems what many developers would like Java to be. The article also mentions the existence of bet

I think the general point of my comment still stands, as you and everyone else working on the project would need to be disciplined and only release binaries that were compiled with no warnings. And even using -Werror doesn't fully solv

Just from the title, I suspected that Steam Locomotive had something to do with it. So I quickly glanced through the article up to the point where the locomotive shows up. Sometimes there's the idea hanging in my mind to make a version

We should look at the whole legal framework, maybe it's part of the check and balances between the executive, legislative and judicial powers.

I'm not a lawyer, but I think an argument can be made that services can (and maybe should?) use the "do not track" setting of browsers to infer the answer to cookie dialogs, thus eliminating the "problem".
