New breach: Internet Archive had 31M records breached last month including email address, screen name and bcrypt password hash. 54% were already in @haveibeenpwned. Read more: bleepingcomputer.com/news/secu…
prišiel aj jeden zo súrodencov, doniesol som mu to aby sa mohol v kľude najesť resp. rýchlo a viete čo urobil, asi to ochutnal a odišiel, je to pod schodami.. nebudem klamať keby som ho chcel mať doma
A few days ago I read this piece by @davidgerard about Eric Schmidt, formerly of Google, calling for burning all fossil fuels and letting climate change run without restraint for the sake of "AI" - pivot-to-ai.com/2024/10/06/eri…
On the first reading, I missed how Schmidt apparently has a new military contracting venture called "Istari".
Yet another person who managed to read Tolkien's legendarium and completely misunderstand everything in it.
I hear you loud and clear Nobel Prize, you don't want to be left off of the AI hype train.
Next will be a Nobel peace prize for "AI safety."
Don't they supposedly wait for decades before seeing the impact, like new drugs that were created or something like that, before awarding Nobel Prizes?
Internet Archive's "The Wayback Machine" has suffered a data breach after a threat actor compromised the website and stole a user authentication database containing 31 million unique records.
well done to everyone involved in making usb so complicated that now the only way to understand what it's doing is to put diagnostic screens on charging cables
just a really solid set of decisions all the way down
Someone is DDOSing the internet archive, so we've been down for hours. According to their twitter, they're doing it just to do it. Just because they can. No statement, no idea, no demands.
Meanwhile, we literally rescued 400,000 dissertations from being pulped.
as I have mentioned elsewhere I have worked fiercely on reducing memory calls and memory copies in curl code over the last few years, and I have come to realize that strncpy is often a marker for questionable code decisions, so I have worked on removing those questionable code paths.
As I have reduced the amount already before, the remaining few uses were not hard to just fix with better conditions and improved logic
yeah I have a fondness for K&R C but looking back many of its standard lib functions were a Bad Idea that at best only made sense for some brief "Garden of Eden" period in the world's software ecosystem
before any user could be a determined (and well-resourced) adversary or a mind bogglingly careless idiot. haha
while I understand that C was always ever meant as a relatively light abstraction, I still don't understand why native string handling was never incorporated. Dealing with strings is relevant in _so_ many use cases, that not having a sane and safe abstraction for it is just asking for trouble.
I think that's one of the first things Borland improved on in their derivates of Pascal.

In a perfect world bots and scrapers would follow robots.txt and/or ai.txt and give the webmaster a link to see if they have a legitimate reason to grab all the content. But, alas...
Remember all those posts you've seen telling you how using #Discord - a private, closed platform - is bad for your community? How it's a terrible idea for storing documentation or other information? Well, the Russian armed forces decided it was a smart idea to use it for *military communications*. Their own "internet regulator" (read: censor) decided to ban it, with predictable results: washingtonpost.com/world/2024/…
@GottaLaff Announcing the Cartoonists for Kamala fund raiser! Many cartoonists have donated original art of their work (not just a print!) for the auction where all the funds will go directly to the Harris-Walz campaign.
Here's a link to get you started. More art will be added over the next couple of days as this kicks into gear.
I letos budeme mít stánek na @linuxdays, tak se za námi zastavte, rádi vás uvidíme! Kromě toho si můžeme v sobotu v poledne poslechnout přednášku o #Fedora Asahi Remixu od @sesivany.
Milton je hurikán, kterého se vědci již dlouho obávali: Změna klimatu vytvořila v Mexickém zálivu vhodné podmínky pro extrémní hurikán. Když se včera hurikán Milton během 12 hodin změnil z bouře 1. kategorie na bouři 5. kategorie, klimatologové a meteorologové byli ohromeni. John Morales z televize NBC6, zkušený televizní meteorolog z jižní Floridy, se při popisu rychlého a dramatického zesílení hurikánu začal zalykat.

@radasbona Nö, sorry. Da musst Du das F-Droid Team fragen. Fennec braucht (wie fast alles von Mozilla) immer spezielle Anpassungen – aber wer da was wann macht, weiß ich nicht.
This, is a banger. This whole soundtrack and just this composer in general is really good. This is Elly (sometimes romanized as Erii, originally エリｲ) from the soundtrack of YU-NO: A Girl Who Chants Love at the Bound of this World (この世の果てで恋を歌う少女 YU-NO) for the NEC PC98. I'd like to see a bassist play the bass part in this, especially when it starts doing the changes! That sounds hard AF, but I'm not a bassist so I can't be certain. youtube.com/watch?v=0joudlesP6… #chiptune #vgm @cordova5029 @FreakyFwoof @arfy @musicalman
"Chrome is the 4th browser I've worked on. They've all had majority market share. 2 of them don't even exist anymore. The web platform remains. It outlives browsers, engines, companies even."
Chromium seems like such an unstoppable juggernaut right now, though. To the point that I'm sympathetic to the argument that Apple's ban on browser competition on iOS might be a good thing in that it's preventing Chromium from becoming even more of an unstoppable juggernaut, leaving everyone else far behind and making it practically impossible to ever develop a new independent engine.
Medzi ženami na Majstrovstvách Slovenska jednotlivcov v rapid #šach-u 2024 dominovala Lucia Ševčíková. Zároveň získala právo štartu na Majstrovstvách Európy žien v rapid šachu 2024 na náklady SŠZ. Tešíme sa s ňou!
I think those of us who agree with this message (I think I do) could do a better job of communicating it to those who aren't following the web development discourse. As far as my non-developer business partner knows, for example, React is still an uncontroversial industry standard.
If this doesn't exist yet, maybe we need a web page, with a catchy domain name like WhyNotReact.dev, that succinctly lays out the arguments against React.
