Put another way, they took the gains in technology and process improvements and banked them for themselves, releasing a new generation that achieves similar performance (in some cases worse) to last gen, albeit at an improved power envelope

Hell, the same things were said about Shkreli, and he served 6 years 5 months of his 7 year sentence. The biggest inequalities in the system exist before anyone ever gets charged. And when you go and blab about your crimes to anyone who&#x2

The linked timeline from JetBrain's side doesn't exactly shower them with glory - taking more than a week to respond to with CVE numbers is not ideal. But the linked toot states: > it's super inappropriate to lie to resear

What deception are you referring to? I don't see anything in the linked article that I would consider to be an accusation of deception.

At one role our GitHub access was mediated by a CI job that would export users and groups from Google Workspaces and apply them to GitHub. The script would helpfully print a list of actions taken, and we had a general policy of CI logs bein

It's been a hot minute since I had to dig into the code Apple publishes for anything and since then they seem to have moved it all to Github. I don't have my mac handy to try building it, but I don't see any references to a r

The current implementation searches only within a single episode. Searching across multiple episodes could be done but would introduce false positives if a show re-uses intro music or other assets, and personally I’d prefer to keep that stu

On macOS you can also access related symbols by long-pressing keys. Obviously for large blocks of text you're still going to want to switch layouts but for a quick IM reply or typing a couple of characters I think it's faster.

I've written a podcast ad blocker. I'm not based in the US but listen to a few podcasts from large US-based networks. They don't have any ad inventory to sell so instead they fill the slots with ads for other shows on their n

I dunno man, personally I try to avoid living my life by walking right up to the edge of what's legal, and I don't admire or respect that trait in others either.

Ableton comes from Germany for instance - not my cup of tea personally but by all accounts great software. Samsung meanwhile has a significant software development presence in California.

An embellishment can often be put down to a difference of opinion, and vendors have a reputation for downplaying vulnerabilities. In our case, the media reported the researcher's claims uncritically alongside our denials. We decided th

Not necessarily - see the recent bogus curl CVE's for instance. There's a lot of incentives to invent or embellish vulnerabilities for street cred or other reasons. Many years ago, a 'researcher' made claims to the media

I would never buy a smartphone based on whether it could receive FM radio, and if I had a smartphone that could, I would probably never use it. But the article makes the point that FM radio can work just fine in emergency situations where t

At my last job I used a dummy iCloud account at the system level, but you can log into a separate account for the app store, which was necessary to avoid having to re-buy some apps I depend on. Just as I was leaving they were in the process

I think we have a rather specific example of a Chrome bug hosing OS installs. Had SIP not existed, there's virtually zero chance that bug wouldn't have been caught before shipping.

The point of Asahi is to provide linux drivers for Apple hardware. What would be the point? You can already run Linux in a VM on arm macOS today with good performances. You don't even need to disable SIP.

The two other conditions listed in the page you link basically amount to "the buggy code has to run". Related, I think SSV [1], introduced last year, would also have blocked this bug even with SIP disabled. But none of that invali

It still has them, of course, but the concern is that after ~8 years of SIP basically ~everywhere, platform security decisions have been made assuming it is present. This concern is definitely not totally unfounded, back in 2019 Chrome ship

Maybe we're reading different announcements, but I can't find the part where a low-cast one-time-purchase game like Vampire Survivors wouldn't have to pay a 20c fee for every device I install the game on if it were made with

I think its a perfectly fine use case but we're not yet at the point where that community has reached a high enough level of rust adoption that there are a significant number of mature projects, even for something as relatively simple

Sure, if you are under the threshold you pay nothing. But once you are successful enough to have to pay, my point still stands. You are paying a much larger % of revenue the smaller you are and the cheaper your game is.
