Windows has a manifest system for shared libraries that allow multiple versions of a library to coexist side-by-side. My hope is that this alleviates problems.

There’s actually a concept of tortious interference, which can make you liable for assisting other people in breaking a terms of service, even if you never broke it yourself.

My thinking is that good security configuration makes fail2ban redundant. With password authentication disabled and strong keys, it’s not clear to me what the threat is that fail2ban offers to protect against.

I think a lot of people, myself included, have been waiting for a low-level, polyglot, and lighter weight runtime than the JVM. WebAssembly currently provides the best tooling for this. That said, I’m not really convinced of the server-side

I have a .co domain that gets rejected occasionally as well. Highly regret that domain choice since people often mistake it for .com.

Towards the end of high school, I started a fairly profitable startup, and went on to do that for a few more years after in lieu of college. At the time, I really struggled with my parents desire to keep me in school and my own desire to dr

Not affiliated, but I believe with every telemedicine company, the care providers need a medical license in each and every state they have patients in. So it will likely be a long time before they have “nationwide” coverage. This is why man

The legal system is generally pretty nuanced, considering things such as intent and purpose. In this particular case, it doesn’t really matter how the new work was generated or created. I don’t really think that would be very relevant. The

Actually, it does. When you upload code to Github, you are effectively "dual licensing" the code to them under Github's terms. Github is not bound to any other licenses you may have applied to your license, because it did not

I've heard something similar in response to Copilot in another thread (something like offering a sum of money to Github if they train their model exclusively on the Windows NT source code). But I think the legal theory here is that Cop

It's not just a technical issue, but also the tax law itself has changed. For example, you used to be able to fill out a 1090-EZ for your taxes if all you had was W-2 income and bank interest. Anyone who meets that criteria could compl

By uploading your content to GitHub, you’ve granted them a license to use that content to “improve the Service over time”, as specified in the ToS[1]. That effectively “overrides” any license or term that you’ve specified for your repositor

Federal criminal law is an absolute travesty. Not only are the sentences typically very harsh (10+ years in prison is typical) but also many of the statutes are incredibly broad. The book “ Three Felonies a Day: How the Feds Target the Inno

The key difference to me is the “or later” part. So even if the FSF releases an evil version 3.1 or whatever, everyone could just continue to use version 3 instead. Whereas if the FSF owns all of the intellectual property, they can relicens

I'm somewhat surprised to hear that many GNU projects have copyright-assignment policies in place. That seems to go against what I used to think the FSF was all about. But after watching videos of Linus on GPL v3, it seems that the FSF

Probably my favorite feature of libvirt is the security and isolation features provided by sVirt. It applies a security policy via SELinux (or AppArmor) that ensures that in the event of a VM breakout exploit, the attacker can only access r

I’m an anti cheat dev and I think client-side anti cheats make no sense on a typical MMO. Pretty much all cheats for those types of games can be detected server-side. RuneScape is a great example of this.

No, anti-cheats in ring0 haven't eliminated cheaters, but that was never the point. The point is to make it more difficult to cheat. And they have succeeded in that. Check any cheat forum like unknowncheats. You'll see that most h

Vcpkg has great CMake integration. Further, the model of Conan of distributing a bunch of binaries honestly seems like the wrong approach for C++ where you have to juggle all different sorts of compilers, triples, and ABIs. We use a complet

I found r4cppp[1] much more useful than any other resource to learn Rust. I understand not everyone has experience with C++, but I found that other resources spent a lot of time on topics that are already intuitive to systems programmers. T
