The Stasi was able to read all mail of targets (and they had many) fifty years ago. Practically all mail crossing the border was read, which again was a lot. I'd assume addresses are scraped anyway, since they are digitized for routing

The climate feels to me like most of Europe has stabilized a lot in the last year or so, while Britain turned the pressure cooker to 11.

Oh well, we did know how well that stuff burns, why it's not used in many countries except Britain, how toxic the fumes are etc. The industry knows how to not build a 70 m matchstick. This is clearly not a case of " but we didn&#x

I reported a minor security issue once and it was fixed in a day or so. Edit: Your first reminder email is already quite harsh ("STILL no response? [...] Come on!")... wouldn't be surprised if that pissed the assigned support

Well yeah, that's what those chambers are. Except it's a bit more complicated to do than "just" :)

Actually RF shielding paint is very poor. Manufacturers advertise them with "99.5 %" or so, which equates a measly 20 dB. Additionally, correctly applying these is quite difficult, and incorrect application greatly diminishes the

> as well as any compiled language that can expose a compatible C ABI which includes Go I don't think that's true. Go only has a FFI to the platform's C ABI (cgo).

TBH it sounds like you immersed yourself in the "everything is node or go or rust" HN bubble. C++ is one of the most widely used languages for application development.

No, not at all. A raised SNR can be overcome in almost all circumstances by making more measurements, i.e. correlation, since noise is not correlated, it is removed. For the same reason random delays don't help against timing attacks.

I don't get the downvotes; the slowness of most slow web pages is clearly caused by shitty JS.

A lot of low-end computers still ship with 2 or 4 GB RAM. Upgrading isn't cheap (look up current RAM prices).

I assume™ that xz won't stay the only choice. I think it's important to understand that in deduplication, you'll pass all data through your hashes one to two times. Regarding buzhash, it can break with byte granularity, and i

Proper API design and documentation would be quite sufficient, breaking and expensive.

They're marketed as different sockets, so I wouldn't be surprised if that does not work. E.g. because a SP3r2 motherboard doesn't route power to unpopulated dice on the module.

Hm? L2 is per core. Always has been in a three+ layer architecture. Zen has 512K L2 per core and 8M L3 per CCX (two CCX per dice). L3 is a victim cache iirc, unlike previous generations where the L3 was inclusive. Intel usually went with a

If you read the internals description it could just as well be about Borg, very similar principles here, though the application is very different. By the way, both buzhash and SHA-256 are kinda poor choices for a new system, especially one
