Why is that ironic? Windows makes backwards compatibility a priority, Linux... doesn't. Well, Linux does, but the userspace not so much.

But plenty of words can have huge impacts on mental state. Is that odd? "Your significant other was just involved in a serious car accident and is in critical condition." Or consider attending a (good) stand-up comedy act. That si

I had forgotten how big a change conversation view was compared to other webmail. Also for what it's worth, I still use the Basic HTML view because I find it a better experience, so AJAX was definitely not the selling point for me. The

My post wasn't intended to be aligned with any position; if it came across that way I need to get better at communicating. I was intending to point out that people in the opposite camp usually feel fairly similarly. The mass media disc

Also take a look at the feminist movement. A large chunk of them assume that anyone who calls themselves "anti-SJW" is batshit insane and also wants ridiculous things like "muslim-free zones". I doubt such a movement cou

Does it really matter what their motivations were if they did it, though? They now have the ability to target ads/content, and they use it. The fact that they would've before if they could doesn't really change that they di

To be clear, I'm not claiming that encrypted data is compressible. I'm just pointing out that any detectable "patterns" that appear in random data but not encrypted data are inconsistent with the claim that random and en

Any one given input can be losslessly compressed down to 1 bit with the exact right compression algorithm. I think everyone here understands that. The argument is just that that's not really useful in the real world.

If patterns appear in random data, and no patterns appear in encrypted data, then it's trivially distinguishable from random data: look for patterns.

I believe I could make a solid argument for that. :P But no, it's just that all the bad poets in the original article were machines in the end.

by qu4z-2 10y ago
That's what I found. All the "human" ones were easy, but then you had to play "machine or awful poet?" on the rest.

I've been able to reproduce it with different browsers on the same computer. I'm not sure of the exact strategy, but it's just a big UX problem that I don't know what I'm sending another user. ... aaaaand now I wa

I really want to know who can write exploit code in C, but needs a cheat sheet to invoke the compiler. Also, I always preferred "make exploit" for that. It's just very ... to the point.

It's tricky because your direct image link redirects me to the full page with ads, and it's not obvious to you. Try hard refreshing your image link. (I'm pretty sure the way it works is: it shows the image for certain refer

I'm really not sure 1e-2 EUR per month is more plausible, though.

Looks like part of it is that after you've visited the direct link once it's served from cache.

My favourite part is that I clicked it and got a 404. That seems really appropriate.

I believe (and I may be wrong) that the vim philosophy is actually to embed vim in things rather than embed things in vim. They've just lost track of that a little over time. See also :help design-not : 'Vim is not a shell or

I would recommend abduco+dvtm. That's where I've ended up. Then again, I'm biased in favor of suckless-brand things. I also somehow configured abduco to always start a dvtm instance inside it, so there's no pain from it

"Be the next Minecraft" sounds like a fairly risky business strategy to me.
