I wasn't either (insomuch as I had never thought about it), but it makes sense if you think about it for a second. If you have one end plugged in one way, and the other end plugged in the other way, each individual wire is flipped from

His comment is _not_ wrong. He says "I agree with the article, FastCGI is better than HTTP for these things." "These things" being the communication between a proxy and the backend.

Apart from the attack itself, there's also an extremely succinct and powerful demonstration of hallucination in here. One of the LLMs replies "If you're curious, I can also tell you how the competitive scene works or how peop

I listen to a podcast. The hosts are not tech people. They don't know much about AI, but they play around with it to the extent that most people do. They're both media professionals with long careers in radio news. They closely fo

> a useful resource pre AI This makes me so worried for the future. AI is only useful _because_ it can pull from all these resources which already exist.

That was their whole business originally. The block storage is a newer offering.

Obviously that script is more convenient, but if you’re on a system where you don’t have it, you can do the following instead: mkdir /some/dir cd !$ (or cd <alt+.>)

If you think that’s just about defending a friend, than I think you haven’t read enough of the quotes on that page.

I looked at the website, but I don’t really get what this is about. Is anyone able to summarize what it means that it’s programmable, or how that sets it apart from other programs?

I’m not an expert in this field, but I don’t think I agree. The problem with a browser monopoly is that the monopolist does not have to obey specs — you can just do whatever you want, and force the specs to follow you. If you fork that mono

I’ll do another nitpick: “rebuttal” is a noun. “Rebut” is the verb you’re looking for.

I found https://gizmo.party/ via your site, which I am also very much enjoying! Very fun use of vibe-coding, which I’ve been overall pretty resistant to. Although I do wish it wasn’t such a black box — I wish the code for t

> The switch sees the IP, recognizes it's not part of your LAN (because you've set your network up as 192.168.168.0/24 and that IP's not part of that range) and forwards it to its gateway, the router. This may be nitp

It’s one of the very, very few independent browsers built from the ground up and not on top of one the few existing engines (Gecko, Chromium, WebKit), which is extremely important to the health of the open web. Imagine a world where Chromiu

If you’re using the dash on your keyboard (which is a “hyphen–minus” character) in place of a en dash or em dash, then you are using the wrong character. That’s fine — it’s certainly more convenient, and I wouldn’t call you out on it — but

I believe that the article is referring to a maximum which is hardcoded into Bitlocker (not user configurable). If the administrator configures via GPO a minimum key length which is longer than the hardcoded maximum, then it spits out the e

Mouse movement is signaled in the terminal via ANSI escape sequences, which are just in-band character sequences which your terminal is smart enough not to display, so Telnet itself doesn’t actually have anything to do with it. As far as Te

I think GP’s point was that it’s talking about LE vs BE while simultaneously explaining what a “play” button is. It reminds me of my “electronics” class back in school (2010): Day 1 was learning how to use a computer mouse. Day 2 was straig

Did asciinema hurt you? Because you seem to be on a vendetta here. I’m not sure if you’re an asciinema user or not, but I am, and I’m happy to see the rewrite — it signals to me that the author is still passionate and invested in the projec

> a pass vault can still be useful for recovery codes and API keys You might already be aware of this, but Bitwarden also has a CLI client that can be used for this purpose, at least casually.

As someone who isn’t a programmer, but enjoys dabbling, and has been curious about functional languages, this was a really helpful (and fun!) read! Tutorials written by beginners are so valuable, because once you’re more experienced with a

Probably. It’s trivial to plug some obfuscated code into an LLM and ask it what it does.

ripgrep is quite well known. It’s not some obscure tool. Brew is a well-established package manager. (I get that the same can be said for said for npm and the packages in question, but I don’t really see how the context of the thread matter
