I've been going mental over grime for the past year. It's such a tiny little scene, absolutely did not expect to see it mentioned on HN. I'm generally into the weirder/more patois stuff, I'll try not to link too muc

Doubt it. If you're a bad enough dude to get control over Facebook's internal infrastructure, I doubt you'd blow that access by using it to spam random sites.

I believe zip bombs are pretty easily mitigated, with memory limits, cpu time ulimits, etc. But zip bombs aren't limited to zip files... lots of files have some compression in them You can make malicious PNG's that do the same thi

Alphabet could pay for proper customer service, though. It's not as if they're doing badly. Come on, 40b in revenue and nearly 7b profit last quarter [0]. Unfortunately it won't happen unless they're forced to. [0] ht

It's a site that they run, they are the source for those numbers. A quick google says somewhere from 20%-40% use adblockers. 60% sounds high, but depending on the website, I can see it. For example, I bet at least 60% of visitors to gn

Yeah, I've had my problems in the past and whatever that app is, I wouldn't be keen on having that on my computer, it would only serve to remind me.

It couldn't have started months ago. If this happened mid-January, we'd have be deafened by the screeching of GM's shareholders, angrily rubbing their antennae together. The only time something like this can happen is when

The only sales you can control are the ones that happen in your own country. I'm sure you can buy seat belts from Ali Baba at a fraction of the price, they'll probably be hilariously non-compliant to your country's safety sta

I always thought that was why the big ATX connector has multiple 12V wires, multiple GND wires, etc. To push heaps of current, but using a normal gauge of wire, rather than something huge.

I don't want to say the "p" word and spark a huge social justice flame war, but a lot of comments in this thread are so obviously speaking from a place of financial advantage. In response to your comment in particular, yes,

Seems to be faster, did a crappy shell benchmark. It takes 5.7 seconds to run that SIMD function INT_MAX times, compared to 6.6 seconds for the original. MacBook Air, late 2014, clang, -O3 -mavx2

if you can be bothered, rebuild it with debug symbols, run it, dump core and try and find exactly where the bug is. I vaguely remember doing this with wget, there was a way to make it think the terminal's width is (unsigned)-4, then wh

Send an anonymous email and you'll be ignored. Reply to a big boss on HN, and you might make some waves.

Only if it's harmful enough to kill you. There's plenty of negative traits in nature that only exist because they weren't bad enough to stop reproduction.

That should be fine, but seriously check with your ISP first. They tend to not really understand the difference between middle relay and exit node, and in their heads, tor == bad.

I love how google likes to completely ignore what I'm trying to search for. I wish I could think of an example because it happens to me often, but I can't so I'll make one up. Imagine you're searching for tail lights for

Stephen's Sausage Roll is great little puzzle game I've spent hours playing. Not an easy game by any means, but it's easy to get lost in it & kill a few hours. The puzzles have no time component, which is great, I'm

I've had to install and run Windows Server 2016 on an XP-era desktop with 256MB RAM... oh it was painful, agonisingly painful, with constant swapping. But it worked!

Homeless people tend to gravitate to where there's more services and public transport. Usually. I live in a semi-rural town (Katoomba) in Australia, about 100km from the biggest city, and we have a lot of homeless people from rural tow

Only time I've seen capacitor failure impact a system is on an old (Win XP) motherboard I got recently, most of the aluminium caps near the RAM slots are leaking, and only 1 of 4 slots work. Oh and there was also the 33uf capacitor I p

Same here in Australia. My primary & high school buses were just the normal routes run by the local bus company, you'd often see 3 or 4 regular passengers on it as well.

Nobody's happy with keeping things how they are anymore, unfortunately. Got to keep moving fast and keep breaking things, no matter how well they worked. Not introducing new features feels like stagnation to investors and shareholders.
