> Kotlin's Any is pretty much the opposite of TypeScript's any. In TS it disables type checking completely (according to the docs). In Kotlin it's the top type (similar to Java's Object type), which anything conforms

So it stringifies the function you give it, splits it into its component bits of execution, then interprets the contents alongside a state machine (with judicious use of bits concatenated together and eval'd). Interesting, for sure. AF

That's actually exactly what the stated mitigation they've implemented is, if I've read it correctly. Though they're working on building it into their VM images in order to reduce the memory overhead of the filter.

Given that I've had this happen to me at a checkpoint (in Seattle) and had it explained to me, I think I have a reasonable potential answer: Stacked paper produces false positives in the scanning machines which can be flagged as suspic

HLS lets the compiler optimize your layouts for you more, since you're expressing your algorithm's goals at a much higher level (and have left more actual implementation details unspecified). I've implemented the same algorit

Ahhh, the open source community joking about relicensing. Reminds me of that PR on swift right after it was open-sourced[1]. I've been contacted in the past W.R.T. a relicensing effort for a project I'd worked on. Given that I was

TBH, it's actually just a neat set of commands for configuring wireshark on Ubuntu to run without requiring root - which is potentially useful for anyone. (Most people don't like running apps as root)

I dunno, I've heard Al Biles and his GenJam[1] autonomous accompaniment play, and it's actually pretty good. On par with most small time performers, at least. (Though maybe the synth could use some higher quality samples.) Also pr

What makes the libraries blessed by the language designers so much better than a library blessed by any other trusted party? Rust is an open source language, and only the core team works on it full time - even then, any one of them could le

LINQ (the syntax) is borderline useless in a post-lambda C#. The query expressions don't fit with the rest of your code well, and it makes it unclear that you're calling library code to perform the query. LINQ (the standardized co

And, not to be prudish, but the lack of regulation is part of what has allowed the industry to explode. It's more unlikely I can succeed at a kickstarter for a neat computer dongle if it needs an extra few thousand dollars for regulato
