I think this is a holdover from before, where the request was to not use AI before the leaderboard is filled up. If you are stuck and have to ask a friend for help, you are not going to make the (global) leaderboard anyway. In practice, not

They mention that the "FTP" service includes SFTP, which is file transfer over SSH (not actually related to classic FTP), which is perfectly secure and supported by most FTP clients like Filezilla. The premium "SSH connection

I get that popularity comes with problems, but I don't see how the attack surface is any larger than a normal website? It looks like the entire site is implemented in Javascript, which tries to fetch resources from various HTTPS URLs,

Clever, but it seems like you're still encoding states separately. For an undo/redo stack, you can probably do much better spacewise with some sort of delta-encoding, either by explicitly storing the changes made to the grid (or m

According to the author that wasn't a design goal: > While looking all this up, I found Justin Fagnani’s article Composite Map Keys in JavaScript with Bitsets, which is mostly unrelated to what I’m doing here In fact, the author s

How does this compare to using ArrayBuffer/DataView, which seems like the more obvious choice for this sort of thing? This wouldn't require any bitwise operations to store/retrieve fields, assuming they are all byte-aligned.

I'm talking about theoretic security, i.e. number of operations needed to perform certain attacks. For a 256-bit cryptographic hash function, it should take an expected 2^256 attempts to find a message with a given hash (preimage attac

Yes, SHA256 is faster than MD5 only if you have hardware accelleration. But SHA256 itself is pretty slow compared to the state of the art. For example, BLAKE3 is just as secure as SHA256 but an order of magnitude faster. Try this on your ow

It's not unreasonable for each customer to maintain a separate cache (for security reasons), so that each of them will download the file once. Then it only takes one bad user on the same subnet to ruin the experience for everyone else.

Not just land area; ~90% of the world population lives on the northern hemisphere, so it's more important in that sense, political and historical considerations aside.

I find this advice overly simplistic to the point of being completely misguided. Let's take the table example. Sure, you can fetch an HTML snippet and insert it directly in the DOM tree with innerHTML. But then, how do you handle:

Don't just sneer. Give some details. In which countries are ghost kitchens thriving? How do they avoid the failure modes described in this article? Is it possible they are simply behind the curve?

I've been using Arch Linux for over a decade and have literally never once consulted release logs, and never got into any serious trouble. I do subscribe to the arch-announce mailing list which warns of breaking changes, but that recei

Could you actually? Is it an open protocol? Does Discord have an explicit policy of allowing third-party clients to access their serves?

Curious. Interesting enough, document.body.innerText does contain the style sheet contents, so the browser does consider it visible text in some sense.

No, it doesn't block localhost. Also you can add exceptions, so if you have e.g. a HTTP-only server on your local network, you can whitelist it manually.

Yes, and then that one adopts the same policy. You switch again. Repeat. At some point you run out of options.

This is what Apple already does, isn't it? Why wouldn't it work for Google too?

No because then you lose the ability to compare objects for equality.

You're doing the thing where you hold age-verified requests to an unreasonably high standard of privacy, ignoring the status quo. The absolute majority of porn viewers access a mainstream site like Pornhub through their home or mobile

Are the laws that require you to show ID to buy alcohol, tobacco, fire arms, or gamble in casinos also discriminatory? Or is it only discriminatory when you prevent people without IDs from watching porn?

The “not everyone has an ID!” argument is such an American perspective. The vast majority of world citizens live in countries that require you to have some form of government ID anyway: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lis

While you are technically correct (the best kind of correct), official guidance is to use support libraries that are at least as new as the targetSdkLevel, so if you follow that recommendation you still have to update. Also, I try to at l

I'm surprised Google indexes these short links. I expected them to resolve them to their canonical URL and index that instead, which is what they usually do when multiple URLs point to the same resource.

You can't get promoted at Google for not changing anything.

I bet 99% of URLs that exist on the public web had no activity last month. Might as well delete the entire WWW because it's obviously worthless.

Is there any evidence that this is the case, though?

If this was all there was to it, I'd expect a surcharge for risky payments instead.
