The linked interview https://9to5google.com/2022/08/30/fuchsia-director-interview... is an informative read.

Tape drives (3592) in a Singapore data centre had lots of problems in the smokey burning season until they put in filtering specifically for the drives. In other office-like data transfer rooms in other cities they didn't seem to have

75mhz, yeah! Stacked on top of each other! With 10mbit ethernet! I think we got OpenMosix going even. But then 5 years later I was working on them for a living in HPC, but they were no longer called Beowulf Clusters then.

I'm not sure it will be possible for the devices to even get to a valid window without software updates - most of the shipped CA root certs expire prior to 2038.

Sun Surveyor - shows an overlay on a live camera to see where the sun will be in the sky in summer or winter. Good for gardening and house design. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ratana.sun...

I've always found Go programs to be more noisy straced than C or C++ ones. I wonder if it's less noisy internally at Google with their userspace threading? https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200722234538.166697-1-

These days it seems those protocols are used in spite of NSA involvement. See what happened with Speck in the Linux kernel. https://lwn.net/Articles/761992/

They don't need to buy as expensive cgnat hardware if a greater proportion of traffic is ipv6. That's the rationale given by an up-and-coming ISP in Australia.

240 is multicast etc? 25 is UK defence, also used by some companies internally. I'm also curious about 48.

OpenSSH private keys are now their own format, not ASN.1 encoded. There is still two 4 byte "checkint" values that can vary (but must match), but less redundant overall. https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/src/usr.bin&

A blockchain doesn't magically create money to pay the "miners". Well perhaps it might by taking money from speculators, but that isn't really a robust basis for security audits.

For a personal webapp accessed from a few devices I just keep a list of session IDs in the app's config file. The web framework generates the session id, it's derived from a cookie with no expiry. There's a "/regist

Lacking a borrow checker is a temporary thing, no point reinventing the wheel. I think the intent is that eventually it'll use the same library as Rust (maybe Polonius, or perhaps plans will change)

Doesn't ActivityStreams need query parameters, so won't work with static hosting?

A chromecast might have mediatek SoC but it won't be using their signing keys. Would assume Sony have their own keys and platform setup too.

by mkj 4y ago
It seems that the chrome developers should be able to perform the same binary analysis on the suspect Mcafee software. I guess it's a bit harder without source code to reference side-by-side though.

It shouldn't be, won't the signature be made after the hash brute force is finished?

This looks like a good metric to track. Looking at some generated asm when I was optimising a no_std program for size, I was surprised how much stack shuffling was going on. Also iirc it had runs of load/store where it seemed like a lo

Apple must know of some not-too-obscure software that did rely on those flags, curious if anyone's found what it might be.

There's some more discussion of ipsec in the thread https://www.metzdowd.com/pipermail/cryptography/2020-July/03... I'd be interested to see references to SSL too (from a historical perspective)

Parties adjust policies/messaging in response to polling, so balancing the tradeoffs ends up close to the cutoff? That doesn't really work for brexit as much though.

I guess the memory reduction from data structures might help rust-analyzer too? That would be pretty useful since it's always running in the background.
