The entire argument is one of Relativism, there is a whole lot of disciplines where there is a huge subjective element, consider journalism and literature in general, but that doesn't mean we can not have a conversation about quality o

You're making the assumption that "responsible" is something provable, but that is not the case, it is specially not easy to prove software is secure from tampering its behaviour.

You can't make assertions about "quality" of code that was generated under an hour while it would have taken a human 40 hours, unless you put substantial amount of work into reviewing it. I used Fable on a Zephyr project with

Fair, but I fear that now even more people who can't code will code, and code that is not any better than what people who could barely code write. Growing cabbages starting to look more and more interesting.

Yes, but with JIT, you can't really verify what the application does upfront. That is the entire point.

Only if it wants to allow Writable Memory to become Executable, or basically, allow JIT.

Anyone who thinks AI is good with writing code that is hard to write for the operator, not due to lack of basic software engineering know how but complexity of the domain, either has access to models beyond what is available to the public o

Sure, but it still means that the OS has to decide who is allowed to do it and to what extent. Sophisticated worms like Stuxnet would be much harder with strict W^X for example, since CVE-2010-2568 and the like would be much harder to execu

But this means that you have to decide who is allowed to switch.

The issue is that it restricts from locking-down and securing the system with Write xor Execute memory. So it has system wide implication. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W%5EX

by asdfsa32 1mo ago
You're entirely correct because JIT requires violating Write xor Execute security policy. This is the reason on iOS, it is limited to Apple shipped software. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W%5EX

Op is making a claim about being a software engineer without having the necessary baseline of skills discussed. I have proposed two possible reasons, self-thought programmer who didn't get to the bottom of things, or just went through

Roads do not result in random deaths, drivers, and to a much lesser extent poorly maintained cars do. I know it might sound like a distinction without difference, but when it comes to safety measures, this distinction does matter. Roads tha

I am well aware of the Statistical Value of Life and how it impacts projects. But that is generally used for allocating preventative measures. No road is going to get approved if it is going to result in random deaths by design.

Your point is understood but the crux of the issue is a bit similar to capital punishment, the argument is that risk of losing even one innocent person or useful book isn't worth taking; specially considering the value created for soci

Thinking more, the object of the "house" is to extract value, whatever it is by rent or letting them burn it down, as long as the correct dues are paid, the mission is accomplished.

Skimming/scanning. For a couple of items, it is not an issue, but say for a long list of FAQ, being able to scroll past fast is nice.

You can blame the governments for all sort of inefficiencies but any operation that impacts taxes runs a tight ship in most developed nations, this include things like copyright law, census, and anything statistics. If companies get slope w

Everything is fine for a standard low enough. This is the crux of the issue with LLM work, it is poor quality and shifts the burden of mental work to the consumer rather than the producer, while the producer attempts to extract credit for t

Saying that "a software engineer requires a baseline of understanding of software engineering" is substantive and anything short of that is not "thoughtful" or "kind" but rather disingenuous and sycophantic. Pr

It is of little interest to me since Solaar does all I need, but should I need to, I will dig right into. Nothing to sweat about.

Yes, that is the problem, as the titles says "Google has stopped pushing Git tags". No git tags, no cryptographic content hash.

The problem isn't that you should know everything, but that you should know how to dig into these things. The op isn't even talking about HID and input subsystem, they're talking about replacing a goddamn binary in a package.
