Happy to see some positive news stories regarding Ozempic/Semaglutide. I really dislike that most stories try to taint it in the "diet trend", "TikTok challenge" light, obesity is a serious illness which is extremel

The FAQ is hilarious. He is writing this entire article to save 3-5k conformity tests, but bases his entire software on FreeBSD because "it's more commercially friendly.

Not asking the user for consent for software updates is quite common. My corpo rejects a lot software, because they do exactly that.

In Germany it is common for vendors to acknowledge the security flaw you send to them, but if you want to publish it (and damage their reputation by doing so) they are going to try you in court, and win. Sometimes they even try you in court

Holy hell, but how are your laws in the US aligned so doing something like this is okay? In Germany you would get minimum 3 years in jail for this, people got in front of court for way way way way less.

In a production environment, where you deal with huge sets (think OSM), the solution may be a mix of both. One aspect that I didn't deal with (yet) is also, that a Polygon can have redundant points (think A(1|1) B(2|2) C(3|3) D(1|2)),

Thank you for pointing this out! Actually the flow of this project was implementing everything on my own, and at a later stage realizing that JTS already does a lot, and then refactoring and dropping most of my features :D I was just fiddli

The current streaming service is shit. If you stream via Chromecast, you can see your connection getting dropped by adaptive bitrate streaming in realtime. It's always low quality, medium quality, high quality, ultra high quality, lag,

sounds rather complicated. You would have to scan the entire spectrum (not the entire, but like certain bands) and detect if there is someone sending power on there. But modern vehicles detect these relay attacks and drop your message when

This is the new shit. Measure some kind of data which most people don't fully understand (e.g. ECG spectrogram), label it with arbritrary bullshit (skin color, political beliefs, COVID positive/negative), apply some kind of ML&#x2

The key replay attacks only work on very very certain very very very old vehicles. Seriously the myth that key fobs are sooo insecure, they aren't.

Did this for a supermarket delivery company, they had an API that exposed their exact stock level for products, scraped the data every 30ish seconds, diffed and repeated :D There were some interesting orders for sure (cigarettes + soap + 1

When you turn actual, creative and exhausting work (vulnerability research) into some kind of high stakes gig job you deserve this problem. I am not against bug hunting by any means, but if you want to me act like I care about your product

The download path is hardcoded to be the binary release of a github project. I don't know any other, more trustful way to download MeiliSearch rather than doing this. You could download the source, and build it from scratch, but that a

They certainly do, somewhere. It's not against web devs in general, but this "give a man a hammer and every problem looks like a nail" approach to things. Apps like Canva are unusable for me on my old PC. Many websites too. I

Also totally a coincidence this started during the protectionist Trump adminstration, and a total coindicence that the EU under German leadership started pursuing US tech giants like Facebook, Google with the GDPR and so on at the same time
