Indeed, "Smashing The Stack For Fun And Profit" changed my life, even though I work nowhere near security. It's about perspectives.

Oh, so onimous. Your claim is that the number 5 is cursed because it is a communist number? There is no lesson to take from the number 5. There are lessons to take from longer term planning.

This is inverted. AI books should come with warning labels similar to those found in cigarettes.

In my hometown there is something like that. There are two schools, one of them had a year with particularly good approval rates. Competitive parents started preferring that school, finding ways to send their kids there. That school has bee

Ah, thanks for the historical take. I learned Rust recently. I like it. I never fought the borrow checker. I was sometimes happily protected by the borrow checker. I never understood what people were talking about.

VS Code is sluggish for me as well and crashes. I have minimal expansions, this is just a poor excuse for a lousy editor. Zed is much better, neovim is much better. My only real concern with Zed is what bait-and-switch is awaiting for us wh

CloudFlare is dystopic. It centralizes even the part of the Internet that hadn't been centralized before. It is a perfect Trojan horse to bypass all encryption. And it chooses who accesses (a considerable chunk of) the Internet and who

That's how I've been doing it as well. There's no guarantee that the LLM will follow your minute, detailed, description, and dumping it all at once at the start of a session has made it perform worse in my case. And, you know

CORBA emerged in 1991 with another crucial insight: in heterogeneous environments, you can’t just “implement the protocol” in each language and hope for the best. The OMG IDL generated consistent bindings across C++, Java, Python, and

I thought foldable phones were dumb until I saw a bunch of phones and tablets in person at a Huawei shop. They are super-neat actually and I now see how they make sense. The rollable laptop seems to be something in the same vein? It is much

I think Apple had it in all their software. It's a good stance and easy to ridicule by taking iTunes as an example.

It wasn't just boycotts, however and unfortunately. The South African army was defeated militarily by FAPLA-Cuba. There's a reason why Nelson Mandela's first visit as chief of state was to thank Fidel Castro in person.

It is copyright as a whole that is sleeping through the "AI" transition/robbery.

The problem with French is that pronounciation changed but not ortography. It's easy to see that you did pronounce chaT in the past. Other languages periodically review their ortography. My language had that twice in my lifetime.

This is called "import substitution" and was incredibly popular in the age before neoliberalism. If your country is rich today you probably did a lot of that in the past.

But the Luddites themselves “were totally fine with machines,” says Kevin Binfield, editor of the 2004 collection Writings of the Luddites. They confined their attacks to manufacturers who used machines in what they called “a fraudulen

Everything is obvious after the fact. Thiel very clearly stated that capitalism is about building monopolies, not competition. It's something that not only enterpreneurs miss, but also basically everybody else.

In Brazil there is black box testing. Party officials can choose a sample of a few ballots per polling location on election day, where a simulated election is run, with all inputs recorded on video. The machines have to tally the right vote
