I experimented with booting Arm macOS 14-26 in QEMU a while back, building on the work of Alexander Graf for macOS 12-13, and reverse-engineered substantial parts of Hypervisor.framework, the in-kernel hypervisor, and a bit of Virtualizatio

The entitlement in question is the standard `com.apple.developer.driverkit.transport.pci` [0], required for anything that touches the PCIe bus [1]. Apple is generally restrictive with how much third-party applications can do on machines wit

It looks like the pass through part here was implemented using standard DriverKit interfaces, if I'm not mistaken. That is, the PCIe BAR can already be mapped from the user-space, without any extra modifications to macOS. It's jus

Just curious, is there anything the Electron wrapper provides over the web/PWA version, other than the drawing feature?

The memory model by itself isn't, however Apple implemented it before Arm released an (incompatible) set of extensions that approach the problem at the instruction level instead of adding an Apple-style global TSO on/off switch in

Was it Pat or Brian? If I recall correctly, it was under Brian when Intel had one of its worst periods of stagnation, when the 10 nm process all the bets were on turned out to be a non-starter, and when Meltdown and Spectre erupted. It&#x27

Brings back the memories of using Internet Explorer when every other installer was fighting for toolbar space! Every Internet café had at least 2, with Ask.com, Google, Yahoo and later on, Bing being the main contenders.

Loved the brutal realization that came when the seemingly broken Extensions button the author was mashing for solid 30 seconds turned out to be a fake, extension-supplied one. One... of three.

I think you meant to reply to this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47702680 But if not, I'm not criticizing GNOME in isolation here. It's just what I use and what I'm most familiar with. KDE has the sam

I run all my systems with all outgoing connections blocked by default, and yes, it is annoying. But it wasn't always this way, and so, I don't think it has to be. People just need to start paying attention to this. The impact of a

Per se? No, maybe with the exception of GNOME Shell which literally runs code from the Internet unsandboxed. Can the traffic they silently generate be used for malicious purposes? Absolutely.

It's far from easy in the case of Firefox [0], and the last time I tried, some .mozilla.com domains would still get pinged. Chromium doesn't even have an official guide. The only options I found to be reliable are source-level pat

Run OpenSnitch for a while and you'll quickly realize how much of your system does phone home. Off the top of my head: - GNOME Shell (extension updates without a way to disable this, weather), - GNOME Calculator (currency exchange rate

I must say the combo of an em-dash stuck right in the middle of "it was never X, it was Y" made me chuckle

My bad, I must have confused it with something else. Yes, it uses ptrace; there definitely is some overhead around system calls, but that still should be better than running atop a full-scale CPU emulator. That being said, I haven't be

Honestly, maybe this is the problem. A web-of-trust-like implementation of votes and flags, as suggested below, might be a solution, but I feel like it's an overkill. I've recently flagged a different clickbait submission, about A

This. Also, for phones that don't support Android virtualization, there's a user-space hack, part of Termux upstream, that allows for root-less chroots via LD_PRELOAD: https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/PRoot . syst

Oh wow, was 60 just a while ago. Guess the dead Internet theory is no longer just a theory.

The README mentions ARMv7-M, RISC-V, and AVR, but no actual SoCs or boards, and the source code contains unconditional inline assembly for Arm. Similarly, there are measurements of context switch time on RISC-V, while the scheduler is one b

It's a problem, but I really dislike the solution. Putting a website with known security issues behind Cloudflare's Turnstile is comparable to enforcing code signing—works until it doesn't, and in the meantime, helps centrali

They do, the whole tone and the lack of understanding of Docker, kernel threads, and everything else involved make it sound hilarious at first. But then you realize that this is all the human input that led to a working exploit in the end..

I mean, I get it: vibe-coded software deserves vibe-coded coverage. But I would at least appreciate it if the main part of it, the animation, went at a speed that at least makes it possible to follow along and didn't glitch out with el

A Co-Authored-By tag on the commit. It's a standard practice and the meaning is self-explanatory. This is what Claude adds by default too.

If you accept the code generated by them nearly verbatim, absolutely. I don't understand why people consider Claude-generated code to be their own. You authored the prompts, not the code. Somehow this was never a problem with pre-LLM c
