3 years ago Google killed off Android Things[1] and told everyone to migrate to IoT Core. Now IoT Core is dead. But don't worry about all that, just connect with your Google Cloud account manager! They'll tell you exactly which Go

Is it possible those heuristics could accidentally trigger for browsers other than Chrome? I had an old account where I normally used the android app, then one day I logged in with Firefox on desktop (with adblocker) and my account was bann

Another similar site is https://www.rtings.com/ . They do very scientific, thorough quality tests. I've only used them to buy monitors so far, but it looks like they're starting to branch out from tech -- they have

This is an extremely personal question. The business that excites me would bore 99% of the world, and same goes for you. If you don't already have an idea what you're excited about, just put the money in VTSAX.

These days I would bet all internal/debugging features are gated behind asymmetric crypto-based challenge/response. And it's probably physically impossible to decap a <10nm chip and inspect visually. I don't see a way

This attack sounds very similar to how the Super Game Boy boot ROM was dumped. https://gbdev.gg8.se/wiki/articles/Gameboy_Bootstrap_ROM Some things never change.

I agree they usually withhold details of the case. But I don't think they would flat-out lie about the charges being brought.

Why are we not targeting the hackers instead of privacy advocates? Should we arrest the Tor developers because North Koreans use Tor?

I trust Shut Up 10 with my life. I'm curious if there's anything on this site not covered by it.

Which sentence is more offensive? - Privacy is sexy - Don't let Microsoft kill privacy The answer probably depends where you live. Stereotypically, Americans are afraid of sex, and Europeans are afraid of violence - for example many vi

If that were true, it would be so easy for them to swing public opinion in their favor by saying so. Headline: Arrest of developer with suspected ties to North Korean money laundering Body: He has also previously contributed to Tornado Ca

The US has a population of 329.5 million. Average household size is 2.51 people. So we need to house 131 million families - but the US already has 142 million housing units. The surplus is 3x the headline. What am I missing? https:/&#

In PoW, mining has real-world ongoing costs (electricity, hardware) and so miners need to continually liquidate their earnings to stay afloat. This counterbalances the effect of wealth centralization. If you try to remove real-world costs f

C was used because it existed 30 years ago, and is full of ambiguities (undefined behavior), and Rust curtails UB quite a bit by defining many semantics that are left unspecified in C. You don't need a "locked down" language

let numbers = [0, 1, 2]; let doubled = numbers.map(|x| x * 2); You wouldn't want to have to explicitly type out the length of the second array.

It might make more sense to think of editions as optional changes to the surface syntax, and nothing more. They are not nearly as important as the name makes them sound.

I think that's more a function of the newness of the language than anything else. Golang is (I say this as a Rust developer) more popular, has been around longer, yet still has the same dearth of GUI libs.

Editions are orthogonal to compiler versions. It is perfectly fine if code builds with a new compiler but not an old one. Another example of this: you can write code in a 2015 edition crate that calls the new `std::thread::scope` function.
