Why does one need the second (old-ish) Fritz!Box? Doesn't the first one already have DECT? Also, does this not require a landline number?

For Go, there is https://pkg.go.dev/gvisor.dev/gvisor/tools/checklocks . There are some missing things from C++ Thread Safety annotations, but those could be added.

Can't wait! Do you have any idea how far along this is? Is it likely to be months, quarters, years? (Funny expression, that. I'll wait, of course. It'll be a happy day when this works again and I can slowly make progress RE&#

Thanks for the note. Your corruption frequency anecdote matches mine. I don't have the mental werewithal to deal with that. I won't go back to radare2 until they change their project file stability somehow.

+1 I once tried learning how to RE with radare2 but got very frustrated by frequent project file corruption (meaning radare2 could no longer open it). The way these project files work(ed?) in radare2 at the time was that it just saved all t

Sorry about that, I can no longer edit my comment. Do you have any relation with the project apart from working at the same company?

Microsoft open-sources LiteBox, a security-focused library OS(github.com)

From the GitHub page: LiteBox is a sandboxing library OS that drastically cuts down the interface to the host, thereby reducing attack surface. It focuses on easy interop of various "North" shims and "South" platforms. L

This is great. I'd love to do something similar for Ground Control (2000, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_Control_(video_game) ). Do you have a writeup of how you did it? Both (regular) tooling (radare2? rizin

That matches what I recall too, back when I ran a very cheap integrated intel (at least that's what I recall) card on my underpowered laptop. I posted a few days ago with screenshots of my 2009 setup with awesome+xcompmgr, and I rememb

This is new to me. Can you elaborate please? Perhaps a link to somewhere showcasing this (and contrasting this to other solutions).

I was not aware of bkt. Thanks for the link. It seems very similar to memo, and has more features: - Explicit TTL - Ability to include working directory et al. as context for the cache key. There do appear to be downsides (from my

Those commands are a (1) harder to grok and (2) do not actually use the memoized result (tmpfile.zst) to speed up a subsequent run. Can you give a more complete example of how you would use this to speed up developing a pipeline?

by aktau 11mo ago
Yes, I know. I should've taken a different example. But it's also realistic in a way. When I'm doing one-offs, I will sometimes take shortcuts like this. I know awk fairly well, and I know enough of jq that I know invoking j

The name of the memo is the command that comes after it: $ memo my-complex-command --some-flag my-positional-arg-1 In this invocation, a hash (sha512) is taken of "my-complex-command --some-flag my-positional-arg-1", which

up(1) looks really cool, I think I'll add it to my toolbox. It looks like up(1) and memo(1) have similar use cases (or goals). I'll give it a try to see if I can appreciate its ergonomics. I suspect memo(1) will remain my mainstay

The default storage location for memo(1) output is /tmp/memo/${USER}. Most distributions either have some automatic periodic cleanup, and/or wipe it on restart. Separately from that: - The invocation contains *memo*

Another thing I built into memo(1) which I forgot to mention: automatic compression. memo(1) will use available (de)compressors (in order of preference: zstd, lz4, xz, gzip) to (de)compress stored contents. It's surprising how much dis
