I have read the article, and my first reaction is to disagree with the conclusions. The whole problem stems from the fact that the units in which the data is accessed by the ("strange") CPU and by the external storage can be diffe

That's a good educational resource to show to people who need to learn about multi-stage Docker builds.

I don't think there is a good answer to this - given that MasterCard and Visa are blocked, i.e. that one can't pay for the VPN without external help. Free VPN providers are going to be enumerated and blocked. I think the most prac

The article is inaccurate, unless the law on paper and the actually applied rules are different. Regarding the mandatory 80% sale of foreign-currency income, on paper, it does not apply to the income earned before 2022-01-01. So the majorit

The benchmark doesn't make sense at all. The encoders under the test were set to the same JPEG quality numbers, but this is a completely meaningless metric, and JPEG quantization matrices were not even examined to ensure that the quali

Edit: Sorry for the misinterpreted news below. Regarding Thailand, I would not be so optimistic. There is a report ( https://lenta.ru/news/2022/03/05/problemsss/ ) that Russian bank cards just stopped

Let me remind you that Russians, according to their own law, can only use foreign cryptocurrency exchanges to buy and sell cryptocurrency for fiat money. No such exchanges can legally exist in Russia, but the use of exchanges in other count

For me, it was https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85581 . Yes this endless-write loop is long fixed, but, given that something with 99% similar symptoms has surfaced in kernel 5.16 (or was this original bug not fixe

From the same standpoint, btrfs is not sane either. You cannot dd it to a different block device, even when unmounted. When the kernel sees two btrfs filesystems with the same UUID on two different block devices, it thinks they are one file

Does anyone here have any experience of the opposite migration?

Can this be legal, if we have GDPR? A regulator can argue that IP addresses and phone numbers are hackers' personal data, and it's illegal to share them.

A password should not be "something you know" anyway. If you use a password manager (and you should, because there is no way to store 200+ passwords in your head), then it is "something you have" in your password manager

It's surprising that such high-quality photos could be made back then.

No matter whether it is required, it is a malpractice. The real coding skills needed for a job are the ability to read code, not only write. So, if I were to present an automated test, it would be to invent some input to a preexisting badly

We are not talking about 100 bytes of password here, but megabytes of garbage. See https://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2013/sep/15/security/ , also known as CVE-2013-1443. "A password one megab

There _is_ harm. At one of the places where I worked previously, we used a few dedicated servers in different cities, and periodically synchronized data from the central one to all others using rsync-over-ssh. Sometimes we got a warning fro

Yes. I work remotely since 2016. I changed the country (Russia -> Philippines), but then had to return because the SMS codes that my bank uses for 2FA suddenly stopped arriving.

No, this is not how large companies work. That's how over-regulated companies work, no matter the size.

Well, yesterday I made a rather significant change to the code. Essentially, a reimplementation of an existing function in a completely different way, to avoid a memory consumption issue that cannot be solved in the old approach. 68 inserti
