You can do looping by enabling iterative calculation mode, which has been supported in Excel for much longer than LAMBDA. In iterative mode, Excel attempts to resolve cyclic references in formulas by recalculating until the results converge

These days it is not quite unknowable, if you always runs your programs with the address sanitizer and UB sanitizer on. They aren't perfect but they would provide a pretty good indicator of whether there was any UB or not.

Since the French-speaking world has started to acknowledge that English is the modern lingua franca, perhaps we could now reach agreement to call the new system UCT for "Universal Coordinated Time".

It was becoming common knowledge that you could disconnect your machine from networks during installation to use Windows with a local account (i.e. the normal kind of user account that people have used for decades). Microsoft wants people t

Great, you managed to find two questions weird enough that the language model detects them as nonsense and says so (although on the first question the denial goes a bit too far). More often the model seems to just fabricate something that

Interesting, apparently drgn doesn't even depend on existing debuggers like gdb or lldb. And since drgn uses debug information, it doesn't need any boilerplate to integrate with C code and data structures, which makes for even eas

That's not going to help much if code from the malicious attacker is still going to end up integrated into the software product being built.

It's even bigger than that: the diameter of the main galactic disk of Andromeda is 152 000 light years. There are additional stars orbiting the galaxy in a halo with a total diameter 220 000 light years. In comparison, Earth's moo

Ok, a stupid question. From what I understand this PR provides a tunnel, so that code in the container's private network namespace sees the external network, as if the code was running on the host. Why is this necessary - is it not po

Thank you for the hint about dlmopen! I had a problem that can be solved by loading multiple copies of a DLL, and it looks like reading manpages of the dynamic linker would have been a better approach than googling with the wrong keywords.

Does anyone know of a way to load multiple instances of a DLL in the same process on Linux? A few months ago I was googling for a solution and didn't find anything ready-made. I guess the dynamic linker wants to have a unique address

This won't solve your problem especially for library code, but prctl(2) with PR_SET_CHILD_SUBREAPER is worth mentioning: by setting the flag your process becomes a subreaper, and will become the parent of any orphaned child processes.

Those numbers are marginal costs only, the manufacturers also have substantial fixed costs. Anyhow, there already are lots and lots of USB cable brands, although I suppose many of them are just rebranding bulk cable products.

Instruction decoding is a bottleneck for x86 these days: Apple M1 can do 8-wide decode, Intel just managed to reach 6-wide in Alder Lake, and AMD Zen 3 only has a 4-wide decoder. One would think that dropping legacy 16-bit and 32-bit instru
