It's not your animal, so leave it alone. Would you do the same to hungry africans for example? Same problem isn't it? Lots of people going hungry and exploding population, should they be neutered for their own sake? People and ani

Drink less water or get a medical exemption? That's what the parameters are there for. But even with am exemption you can't be taking a piss for like an hour straight multiple hours a day and be a street cop, at least you should b

I hate this so much. Humans are a disease when considering only things like this. What authority does any human have to neuter animals at random? Why? Because they will suffer? The kick them out to the wild if you don't want to see th

That's fair and i support that but it does not address historical bug patterns that may be a design issue.

Eh? That's literally what a leader of an org does. People want to hear from the leader, the guy making decisions. There are plenty of exec roles that don't involve public figuring, including CTO. The CEO is the ultimate "buck

IIRC, all the recent sudo vulns are logic errors, not memory safety. I mean, rewrite away but let's not pretend that there couldn't be some new bug introduced due to a misunderstanding of how something works or just a plain old mi

You'd be surprised. The law isn't rigid like computer code . The intent and mindset of the defendant is all that gets prosecuted. If you can convince the jury the perp intended to gain money by accessing that information, it could

I've always wondered why file systems don't have a dedupe feature similar to defragment. Imagine an inode filled with all zeroes for example, tons of files have large segments that are all zeroes, what if they all get deduped and

The most common way is for users to just download and execute it from a website or in an archive over email. No vulnerability exploitation needed, the guys that actually use vulns install a rat in addition to stealers and sell access to the

But breaking the law can never be part of the rules of engagement when the company doesn't have authority to give you permission to do something (take an employees financial property).

I feel like you need to address "why not tor/i2p?" In the faq. Also, discord/twitter is an interesting choice given your stated goals. Fine with me, I just expected p2p matrix chat and mastodon or something.
