To be fair it's just SPI and a big package, super easy to read even centuries from now. I don't think we will somehow forget everything about basic electronics.

Could just buy the chip itself for less than a dollar, connect it to Arduino or rpi and write it yourself: https://www.lcsc.com/datasheet/lcsc_datasheet_2112091730_FUJ... Or go with the 64kb version for 6 dollars.

You are missing the point. Nearly 100% of those bugs are due to the fact that it is written in a memory unsafe language, FFmpeg is 23 years old and we still find memory corruption bugs in it every few months. That's why people are sayi

You are getting down voted, but you aren't really wrong, there have been 142 vulnerabilities[1] in ffmpeg since 2018, 3 in this year so far. The attack surface is huge, with mostly memory corruption issues being found. Not sure rust is

In applications using pickle on untrusted data, that's a big distinction. There are a huge number of similar java and c# object serializationg bugs as well.

Yes but the fact that R was apparently able to fix the issue at all is a bit strange then. You can't "fix" pickle code execution.

Well, database introspection isn't new, we could've done that decades ago, but there are good reasons for the layer of abstraction. Also if you go down this route, I think Postgraphile is a much better realization of that idea (us

I don't think so, it's rare that you have such an extreme power imbalance in conflict, only for it then to be viewed as "both sides are equally bad" a hundred years later. We just have a skewed perspective on the proport

I would argue if you sanitize your input you are already doing it wrong, you should parameterize queries and send the data entirely separately from code.

I think what is perhaps something to consider is how much of an attack surface sudo is and how unaware people are of the fact. Many people think they can configure sudo to be safe to use for unprivileged users, by only allowing specific thi
