More like, so much work to work around Bazel. It is dead simple if you don't need it to be correct.

Why is Proof of Work less ethical than Proof of Rich a.k.a. rich being gradually more rich without doing anything? Not saying PoW is safer (it's not), but less ethical is pretty a bold claim.

You usually don't. But if maintainer made such a controversial move it is very easy to fork-off the package and share with others. I'd expect a "real-keepassxc-not-some-braindead-nerfed-one" appears on AUR before I hit t

Piracy-wise it's a good strategy though. Most of leaked copies in recent years were specifically bought to be pirated (except Keen Lab one, rip), and as Windows binaries are the actually portable executables now because of ABI stabilit

Yeah, that's why I refuse to buy PS5, iPhone and iPad. I have a Switch though, thanks to Nintendo's incompetency on locking it down.

Well, I would have no idea if a bounds check is eliminated at all (and who wants to care??), if it does not show up in profiling results. Unfortunately for what I do I had to do this a lot. I guess that's also why I'm not seeing i

I have to constantly fight against rustc and LLVM to convince it to eliminate bounds check in hot loop when I'm writing high performance Rust and it's a cursed experience I hope nobody has to. Other replies in this thread mentione

Of course I mean the fact they use the JBIG2 part of Xpdf. You don't have to use Xpdf for processing PDF in order to use these `class JBIG2*` and you don't even need to patch it.

The problem here is people seldomly get paid rewriting existing C code into memory safe lamguages. While once in a while someone would be annoyed enough and pay for a fixing-C effort for a little. Do you have suggestions on how to fix the i

Have you read the source code of Xpdf (the thing being exploited in the famous NSO Apple iMessage 0-click blah blah)? I did (because I wrote an exploit for the bug after the Google blogpost, for curiosity), the code looks disgusting. The au

There are more than one billion lines of C code which hasn't been updated in the last decade and is still in use. Who is going to update these code once the "do the right thing"-compiler become available? Oh, and the worst pa

What's the difference? Do you mean that Taiwan's claim is purely on paper and they actually admit it's Philippines territory because they did nothing to vessels around? Also, according to Wikipedia page [1]: > The Republic

I checked (for those unfamiliar with western terms, this is 南沙諸島) and it seems like Taiwan also has territory claims there, does it mean Taiwan is also attacking foreign soil right now?

Sure, I don't disagree. What I mean is, most compilers won't generate a function call or an additional indirect memory access for *(111) = 222;, unlike your spec-compliant alternatives. This is, IMO, the problem. Sometimes we just

Both of the alternative do not generate same code though. At least they don't without LTO.

I agree with you that Telegram does not even have E2EE and that's bad. But in this thread, GP was just talking about metadata. The goalpost here is metadata. GP particularly mentioned that Signal "fixed" the phone number issu

It's fine when your bugs are (unanimously) cool, be it Heartbleed, Meltdown, Spectre or Load Value Injection (this one gets a hilarious video even). For less cool bugs a logo and a name seems rather... strange, because it happens all

tl;dr R has its own pickle.load and someone decided to milk a CVE [1] out of this fact. [1] and a blog post for bragging, thankfully they didn't do a name and a logo.
