I've been fighting against this chicken and egg problem in my homelab. I have a step CA SSH CA set up along with automated deployment, bootstrapping, and cert renewals with an ansible playbook. It sets StrictHostKeyChecking yes in the

When Microsoft rewrote it in go, there was a comment from one of the leads that they chose it over rust because of the similarity in paradigms (garbage collection, etc), and that using rust would've been more difficult, requiring a lot

Checking krb5 issues is huge. What a pain in the ass that is to debug!

s6-overlay is a popular container image base for many self hosted services, and it uses an suid binary for startup. I wonder if this could be used to escape the container?

Very cool, especially the accuracy improvements. But is GPU really necessary? SNES is so old I wonder why you couldn't get away with CPU-only. Even if GPU is more efficient, is it worth the headache of supporting way more hardware comb

As an RF expert I can assure you that I could create a device to wirelessly interfere with a pacemaker. A pathological one, maybe, but the point remains: regulation is needed.

Yes! I recently started maintaining https://github.com/AnalogJ/scrutiny a self-hosted service for collecting and monitoring hard drive SMART data. Right now the docs are just a somewhat organized collection of markdown

> our recent analysis found over 90 times more malware from sideloaded sources than on Google Play So what's the solution then? At the same time, I'm curious how this ends up happening to end users. Enabling unknown sources is

Are we really saving that much by not having semicolons? IDEs could probably autocomplete this with high success, and it removes ambiguity from weird edge cases. On the other hand, I've not once had to think about where go is putting s

I was much more opposed to this early on than I am now. With modern IDEs and extensions handling tabs vs spaces, tab width, and formatting, python ends up being very easy to read and write. I use it daily, and while I hate it for other reas

I really wanted to use vscodium but had to go back to vscode proper because the remote ssh extension is just nowhere near as good. The open source one uses a JS library to implement the SSH protocol rather than using a system binary which m

Odd to me that the focus seems to be on the inactivity of Google's package when https://github.com/gofrs/uuid not only conforms to the newer standard but is actively maintained.

There was a similar (in spirit) project to upscale and resample Avatar the Last Airbender [1] because the original DVD release was so awful. Shortly after, Nickolodeon released a blu-ray boxed set that was quite a bit better than the DVDs,

Is MAC whitelisting anything but security theater? Isn't it trivial to determine a valid client MAC then spoof it?

I am really really weary of installing anything from "user" repos, whether it's AUR or Fedora copr. It feels like the wild west. Admittedly, maintainers of Debian packages could just as easily mess up or release something mal

Are there any pandas alternatives that offer stronger column typing? Ideally something where I can have the schema defined in advance, validate the data, then have the type checker be smart enough to know that df.foo exists and is float and

3 years seems like a long time (though to be fair, I know spectre has been around for decades). Were there any particular challenges that made it difficult?

Do we really need to qualify our power user level down to 100ppm percentiles...?

Wouldn't this be violating copyrights left and right? Presumably most of these listings have pictures and I'd be surprised if Amazon were asking permission to reproduce them. Would the same apply to item descriptions...?

I have not a small number of plugins on fish and I've never noticed a problem with startup time. I do wish there was a better way of managing or installing plugins. It just feels so fragile.

We've been doing this at Qualcomm for a while, and I really like it. While meetings do run over sometimes, the practice has still built this acceptance around short breaks between meetings. No one bats an eye if we've got two cons

Apple doesn't own any foundries, so no. It's not trivial to spin up a DRAM foundry either. I do wonder if we'll see TSMC enter the market though. Maybe under pressure from Apple or nvidia...
