Is there precedent for being sued for giving unlicensed investing advice in an anonymous, two-sentence Web forum comment?

Version mismatch of compiler and standard library (caused by Xcode) results in an unexpected interaction. An understandable mistake for Apple to make, but yet another one that suggests they are moving too fast for their own good.

Perhaps showing my age, but that is still how I would do it. It's dead simple.

One plausible (to me) explanation is that the received scancodes are added to a bit vector (a "set"), discarding their original order. Some time later, the bit vector is iterated in numerical order.

On what basis? In the US, the tenth amendment allows states to enforce their own drug laws regardless of what the federal government says.

This doesn't ring true to me at all. The majority of junk calls I get are not from legitimate businesses that would have anything to do with the links you provided.

Just in case the downvotes didn't answer your question: no. Memory was already zeroed out before it crossed process boundaries. Apple's recent change is about zeroing it out even before it's reused within a process. (F

Won't this result in "double NAT" and break a lot of NAT bypass techniques?

It's a fixed size per codepoint. Many clusters that appear atomic in a text editor are made up of multiple codepoints. The flag emojis are among the many examples.

Ah, good point. Wish the backtrace were fully symbolicated (for the system DLLs, at least). Thanks!

Nice debugging. Do I understand correctly that the registry reads aren't actually the cause of the problem but rather just a signal that a QNetworkAccessManager is active and causing a scan? If so, is there a better routine to break o

I appreciate the joke. :)

by valleyer 4y ago
FWIW, they are either joking or just wrong about "dailily". "Daily" by itself is a perfectly fine adverb, and I've never heard or seen "dailily". To prevent cavities, brush your teeth twice daily.

The newest iPhone you could have bought in 2012 was an iPhone 5, which was 32-bit and doesn't support anything newer than iOS 10. You'd basically not be able to run any apps from the last three or four years. (And apps from befo

Yes, but that persists the entire system, including the kernel. AppKit's restorable state is meant to be consumed by brand new processes.

Yes, please. While you're at it, stop replacing "OK" buttons with cutesy replies like "Got it!", which are even worse, IMO, because they apply the cutesiness to my own reply.

Feedback about your web site: there are still plenty of people out there using browsers that don't support WebP. None of your images load for me (Safari 15.5 on macOS Catalina). You should use (or at least fall back to) wider-support

Quite to the contrary, Apple makes gratuitous changes to the UI of their OSes on an annual basis.

This is a good point that I thought about but clearly don't appreciate enough. Thanks for the stats.

Maybe I'm still misunderstanding you, but (modern) Objective-C is an example of a compiled language without the fragile base class ABI problem. (It pays for this with extra indirection at runtime, of course: ivar accesses must first lo

You are of course correct in a broad sense. However, when the discussion already mentions "ABI contracts", they're probably referring specifically to the "fragile binary interface problem" (especially regarding memb

Shame they didn't feel like back-deploying to macOS 10.15 or earlier. I can't imagine it's doing much that would require recent APIs.
