There is the one called "windows sandbox" but it's not persistent making it useless. More recently, I've been following https://github.com/microsoft/win32-app-isolation which seems incredibly intere

It seems baffling that we have this massive community making mods with highly insecure raw java code, and somehow nobody thought of figuring out how to sandbox the stuff.

Interesting, thanks for the links. Does seem mysterious to me though that the id of the post is different on each of them.

That's much more than I expected, to be honest. I guess most people are lurking.

How much traffic could that be? Given the number of comments on this page, I can't imagine it being more than a few thousand clicks? So why would any site go down?

What's the point of posting AI generated babble on stack overflow without checking it? If I wanted that kind of potentially useful answer I could have just asked ChatGPT myself. But if the user has has the necessary expertise to make s

Of course, especially if you want your code to compile within reasonable time.

Super confused by stories like this. I went to university in Germany and any course materials we needed were provided to us as pdfs. They also had a service where you could print it out on a bunch of copy paper if you wanted a bit more tang

Only $10k? Time to run a massively over engineered and over priced micro service based web server for like one month.

I'm sure you can see how having a single correct answer for a math problem is useful.

This is one of those things that make absolutely no sense. The "."/"," difference should only apply to displaying numbers to users like any other localization related change. Why on earth is it writing numbers diffe

Wow I've been waiting for this for so long. This is literally my #1 most requested windows feature. Imagine one day having a proper permissions system on windows and NOT having to worry whether that fancy calculator you downloaded is g

Strange, I copied this in my browser and it opened google rather than the pdf.

Run the memory test that comes with windows. It takes like an hour or something, and will tell you if the memory is malfunctioning - that would explain all the mysterious crashes. I've had this problem out of nowhere one day (computer

I wonder if it's because of the nature of the companies involved. The semiconductor one is actually producing something tangible with huge costs associated with that. Most of the "tech" companies with the crazy salaries are j

It makes no sense to worry about this as an individual while entire countries are failing to act, making the problem worse by refusing to use clean nuclear power and building new coal power plants instead. Or you could see some corporation

I finally decided to install Copilot recently now that they have the business subscription with a more sensible privacy policy, and it's so much better than expected. Even on internal code it hasn't been trained against it often j

The confusing part is that working on the simple software will likely get you a much higher salary.

For GPT-3.5, you can just start your prompt with one of the popular jailbreaks - that will rid you of all the annoying "as an AI model, I can't [...]" stuff and have it actually answer your questions.

Strange. Phones were banned when I was in school. As in, obviously you'd have a phone, you just wouldn't have it out and be messing with it during classes. Almost all the students were reasonably following this. We also used to ha

It is even more amazing when the entire $10k AWS setup can be replaced by a single minimally optimized monolith running on one $20/month Hetzner server that responds several times faster to most requests due to no internal latency.
