Can't you do it just with some #pragma s?

Given that this requires root already, what's the benefit from it being a kernel module, vs. just running a few iptables commands to add a new rule?

anyone knows what does the "TCM" mean in the slide "Why RISC-V for Falcon Next"?

Did you mean some other link? A Tesla story seems totally unrelated edit: ok, I get it now: the slidedeck mentions the above Tesla story in a slide about security.

But Scheme is untyped too AFAIK - isn't it? So it'd require the same degree of "fixing" as long as we're talking about the discussed article.

I tried doing some non-trivial contributions, and unfortunately there's currently some degree of a problem where there are not enough people actively revieving contributions and having enough authority in the project to be able to merg

Wouldn't it be trouble if I tried to visit you at your office tomorrow? :) Not sure if time (and traffic) will let me, but I'm in the same city, and super interested in your project... would love to talk some... note: not an inves

I don't understand why comment out ASSERTs; wouldn't they actually potentially protect against some of the listed issues? The article mentions they interfere with libFuzzer; but isn't a fuzzer expected to detect and handle cr

Ah; more off-topic than not, but this reminded me of another fairly obscure, yet super interesting mailing list — The Risks Digest, on air since 1985: https://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/

I wonder why Pixel Qi didn't become popular enough to fit this niche and not die as a company - seems to have many benefits over e-ink, including refresh rate and some colors: https://the-digital-reader.com/2015/01

You may like browsing through comments by @nickpsecurity (e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=nickpsecurity&next=1... , etc.). He's really knowledgeable about this stuff, and tries to popularize it as muc

Totally not a concrete link, sorry, but - in a video from one of Lua conferences, I've seen Roberto mention in some polite yet clear way that talks with Mike which they had had always come to a standstill on something - at least that&#

There's also a quite well known sprite/pixel art editing/drawing application, named Aseprite, which has a similar model - the author sells it as a paid app in its compiled form, though he also makes the full source available

For people knowing Lua a bit longer, the "divergence" is nothing surprising, it's an explicit and very long standing design choice by Lua authors. Specifically, that's what allowed them to evolve Lua to the awesome lan

How does it compare to the other existing solutions? (LXR? LXRng? OpenGrok? I'm not an expert here) Does it work for other code (not Linux kernel) too? What are the requirements? Would it e.g. work for SQLite? Lua?

Isn't readability already killed by minifiers? Not sure what's the status on the wide web, but I know at least at my employer we're using them, and it sounds they're something popular and well established?

IIUC, the --abbrev-commit is unnecessary there, --oneline already does it. Makes the incantation possible to remember and type on a foreign console: "git log --graph --oneline --decorate --all" edit: yep, per git help log :

I use `git diff` and `git log --graph --decorate --all --oneline` and `git status` so often, that it totally saves heaps of time. Especially the second one ― I usually type my `gl` somewhat subconsciously already; only afterwards I realiz

I've read the Wikipedia summary, and it appears to me, that GDPR only requires encryption, not anonymisation, of personal data! Or did I miss something?

I have a Core m3 SP4 (because fanless), and am running Hyper-V on it too, with NixOS. That said, I wasn't able to give it more than 1.5 GB RAM, and even this only after I temporarily close Firefox on the host. (Firefox starts a-OK afte

Hm. You actually made me look at it, and it indeed does look interesting. Somehow, I always had an unfavourable impression about BountySource before; now that I think of it, possibly because of clunky GUI? Or, I believe it may be that the &

It would be cool if it also allowed one off donations. I live and earn in a country, where "a [US-priced] coffee cup monthly" is a tad too much for me to accept in budget; but I've just recently donated for the first time

NeoVim is gonna use (already using?) Lua. Would that fit you?
