Huh, polling with a sleep() rather than a proper event wait seems like a bad code smell there...

I was idly wondering about this the other day (maybe php prompted it). Making release tarballs should become a reproducible process too [1]. That avoids the "hack the releaser's dev machine" attack if you verify elsewhere, or

It's interesting that none of the finalists for this US standard appear to be from US authors?

With bitcoin noone will want to change existing history because that's a forked chain, loss of value for lots of people. With bittorrent you could possibly convince all the hosts to get rid of some malware information which isn't

Github doesn't allow disabling pull requests, so there's always that means of contact.

Honda in Australia seem to be doing similar without EVs too. Closing various dealerships, fixed pricing? https://www.honda.com.au/about/our-future

This is intriguing. https://vortexbladeless.com/technology-design/ is a better description from the manufacturer.

I assume the solokey generates its master key on-device. Seems like it wouldn't be too hard for it to perform Diffie Hellman key exchange with another device to get a shared secret (at first setup) then they could be a cloned pair.

Losing maps would be worse than search. Seems very unlikely they'd follow through with their threats, not like ASD are hacking them.

Eventually HN will get hacked (doesn't everyone?) and all the upvotes/downvotes will be revealed too!

Kind of - they're both from the same era when Quartz was the branding for any graphics things.

If he stops maintaining he's even less likely to accept contributions isn't he? Sure it's open source so you can fork it, same as ever.

100km in some circumstances, and 40km easily? https://www.cgg.com/technicalDocuments/cggv_0000027562.pdf That's a pretty loud "noise" though.

I think the difference with browser extensions is the anonymity and speed of changing owners. There's more momentum to notice big companies going downhill (+- stuff like sourceforge)

It seems auto-updating browser extensions are riskier than leaving them non-updated?

Static linking would error out with something like bar.c:(.text+0x0): multiple definition of `socket_send' at compile time. (edit: I mean static linking everything including third party libraries)

This seems like the kind of thing that Apple themselves are in a good position to help with. Seems pretty improbable unfortunately.

Isn't Mercurial different only in nomenclature? The manifest id stored in a changeset is a tree snapshot. Otherwise I don't think hg-git would work as transparently as it usually does. https://www.mercurial-scm.org&#x2F

Yes, it works well. The main caveat I've found is you need the rustls feature of packages rather than openssl. Though perhaps that was more related to cross compiling for Arm.

This reminds me of a trick Monotone VCS in C++ had to print out specific variables upon failure. Usually they'd do nothing, but upon hitting an invariant or similar it would dump all the listed ones out. A bit harder to do cheaply in a

LLVM has/will soon have hot-cold splitting, I wonder how much the overhead of error codes would be reduced. Requires an extra step of PGO though. https://llvm.org/devmtg/2019-10/slides/Kumar-HotColdSplitt

AFAIK the workspace switching animation can't be disabled.

Yeah, I know. I thought swizzle-clogging as the "best way to trigger errors" was worth highlighting, an interesting technique.
