I don’t know. Could you imagine if you were in charge of investigating something like this and you _didnt_ check one of the computers involved just because the guy who owned the computer claimed it doesn’t have anything useful on it? There

Exceptions are slow in some languages based upon how they are implemented. I'm not convinced that is fundamental to exceptions and rather a choice of how they were implemented. In Java exceptions arn't actually that slow, most of

All your examples were about dogs overeating, which I don't think anyone would disagree dogs can do. But I think it's pretty rare for dogs to under eat and to need to trick them into eating their food.

If you set the precedent that the government can ignore the result of an election because the electee is bad, that's the very tool that a tyrannical government will use. The first thing every dictator and tyrannical government does is

In this case it sounds like Moraes threatened to arrest Brazilian X employees if the company didn’t comply with its requests. That is wildly outside democratic norms IMO. Not just the arrest of individual employers, but the threat of which

That’s more a question of how you hold it. You can keep your own local DNS list or run one for you and your friends (OpenNIC) But for DNS it’s typically most convenience if everyone agrees on who google.com is.

A lot of the RSA gotchas are due to trying to take implementation shortcuts either for convenience or speed. If you don’t choose your primes truly randomly for example. Using a secondary key and using RSA for the key share is not about avoi

They’re functionally equivalent these days. Blockchain has become marketing speak mostly. But if you squint a little. The history of a git branch sure looks a lot like a blockchain (or vice versa). You have a ledger of records (commits), th

I don't think I understand your point? My argument is that the install method is just piping a curl command to your shell is _no less secure_ than any other typical application install procedure, and the user experience is pretty decen

Why? I’m going to run their software anyways. And this is a really easy way to run an installer. This is basically the Linux equivalent of download and double click which is a user flow that is underrated for simplicity and usability.
