The problem you'll almost immediately run into is that modern computers typically use digital video streams rather than analog streams. You'd need to use VGA for the audio part (and that's making a lot of assumptions about th

Rust doesn't outlaw them. It just forces you to document where safety workarounds are used.

Maybe I'm spoiled because I work with Rust primarily these days but "fighting the borrow checker" isn't really common once you get it.

15 years ago I'd have agreed with you. However we've managed to make almost everything about life, happen on the Internet. Not just the "fun" things, but identification (and verification thereof), communication, payment,

I don't understand this take at all. The borrow checker is automatic and works across all variables. Defer et al requires you remember to use it, and use it correctly. It takes more effort to use defer correctly whereas Rust's b

Huh so a flange is just a combing effect that shifts around? I'd never considered this. Also neat fact about flanges, didn't know that either. Thanks!

Pretty sure this is also why, when you stand at the right spot in a techno concert, the music starts to sound like a jet engine. We also have this in game development, where if two sound effect emitters play the same effect at the same time

A side effect of this that I've started to notice on a few of my repositories are fake accounts trying to bolster their perceived credibility when they are very obviously (terrible) AI accounts - down to their profile READMEs (on GitHu

That's not the takeaway here.

Yep. Any software these days can be "network accessible" if you put a server in front of it; that's usually what pumps the score up.

Perhaps giving a bit more information than throwing out random acronyms related to SSH would be a bit more fruitful in terms of responses. What about TOFU and MITM would you like them to respond to? TOFU isn't inherently a bad thing.

This is rehashing (no pun intended) a very long-discussed issue about versioning. Your post also contradicts itself. > SHA `11bd71901bbe5b1630ceea73d27597364c9af683` - That means absolutely nothing to a human being > Presumably it wou

Honestly here's how you do e.g. ARM: - Get multitasking working in x86 since there are a ton of guides for that. Learn OSdev concepts. - Read the ARMARM. It's many thousands of pages of dense technical material, nearly everything

Novell was really bad at locking down machines lol. It was namely susceptible to the windows XP `at.exe cmd.exe` root shell bypass. Got in trouble a few times during school years doing that.

- There are many books about programming in Rust (I own several and am reviewing one right now) - Crabs are a fandom and branding thing, I don't see the point in criticizing that. Marketing is hard, an identifiable brand mascot is a go

Yes, that's what I meant. I'm making a kernel that uses ports not dissimilar to Mach's and I get asked if there are other modern kernels that do the same thing from time to time. Everyone I've talked to has been surprise

Well written article. It reminds me of the zero day that Apple tried to cover up somewhat - the "empty password tried twice" root login bypass. This was ca. 2017 or so, maybe 2018. You were able to type in an administrator usernam

I theorized about this vulnerability a while back when I noticed new commits didn't disable automerging. This is an insane default from GH. EDIT: seems GitHub has finally noticed (or started to care); just went to test this and auto me

They probably didn't. Hiring a private investigator to look into your employees' health breaks several laws.

You visit a page. It asks for device access. You get a dialog box choosing the device that matches the filter the site wants. You can either choose a device or decline. Site does not see anything other than what you approve. What is difficu

There's no concept of "sick days" here in Germany like there is back in the US. You're either sick or you're not. If you're sick you don't go to work. If you're sick more than 3 days, you get a doctor

std is based on core, the latter of which is available in no_std. Std is thus additive. GP comment is correct; this is how the entire ecosystem structures no_std-compatible crates.
