Craig Murray was warned multiple times that his blog posts were in contempt of court. He should have taken down the blog posts, but instead doubled down. Hard to see whence your outrage originates.

Creating a welcoming, and not a hostile, environment was on its own a good enough reason to fork. But also. Cutter is the first time that either Rizin or Radare has been simple enough for me, an entry level RE enthusiast, to use. So thanks.

Rustc is Apache 2.0 or MIT license. Either is compatible with GCC’s GPLv3. So there’s no intrinsic legal problem. It does however mean that if you distribute rustc with this GCC backend, you have to comply with the GPLv3.

No, you misunderstand. The TPM verifies the bootloader and the operating system kernel, etc: that those components haven't been altered.

Complete hyperbole. Vaccination increases the duration of reinfection immunity. Moreover, significant proportions of people suffering long COVID feel an improvement after vaccination.

UK advice is less ambivalent. Everybody should get vaccinated, unless allergic to a specific ingredient, or previous COVID vaccine shot. https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/... See page 21.

Almost everybody over (say) 18 is recommended to get one of the COVID vaccines, right? Pregnancy is fine. If you're allergic to the ingredients in one vaccine you can probably get another. I'm not saying nobody is inelligible, but

lol, not really. You're thinking too literally, as we programmers often do. In this case, that's not how the law works.

Is that problematic in practice? Write functions that are pure or take references (not ownership), and for the rest, use a judicious .copy()?

Thank you for the detailed answer. I have tinkered with PostGIS before, and it seemed great. Nonetheless , you make several good points about how a special purpose tool/format can be faster by avoiding certain work. As for LMDB, I hav

On the off chance the author is still hanging around here: Do you mean it when you say on the blog that OSMX is faster than a relational database? e.g. faster than PostGIS. And I presume you mean because of the up front cost of conversion?
