No no no. You don’t realise the compiled intermediate can be _trivially_ reused for every request, and identified by the hash of the JavaScript code. Browsers already do this, it’s just your attacker has a bigger cache, and not by a little

Oh? How do you think munmap does it? If you can convince the caller to keep track of that metadata themselves you obviously don’t need to. That can be important. Something I noticed is that _very often_ the code that is calling malloc(n) is

CarPlay is better than android auto in that it works with my iPhone; as to why it is currently in _my_ requirements, it’s simple: I rent cars when I travel, I’m too lazy to memorise so many maps, and I don’t have a good mount I can bring wi

Google has been attempting to license the right to write. There are a lot of poor people, mostly brown people, who do not have the ability to get one of these licenses. Some of them are feeding themselves with their ability to write, and Go

Nonsense. The FSF cannot receive a copyright assignment from someone who does not clearly have the rights. If it is “open” then it is not clear. Of the two other parties who claim copyright, neither is the submitter; either Facebook (or who

No. The “contributor” doesn’t have the ability to contribute; They do not have copyright over the code so they can’t assign it. The maintainer should not read it because then they could be tainted and perform accidental copyright infringeme

It makes sense: if you use an LLM, you don’t have the copyright so you can’t assign it to the FSF.

Yes: This is how Anycast works. The same IP block is announced from multiple geographic locations, and so IP traffic will be routed to the nearest.
