An experimental GUI for rust-minidump. Contribute to rust-minidump/minidump-debugger development by creating an account on GitHub.GitHub
@matt oh! uhhh ok..!
you can use this as a test input if you plan to actually run it:
github.com/rust-minidump/rust-…
Type definitions, parsing, and analysis for the minidump file format. - rust-minidump/test.dmp at main · rust-minidump/rust-minidumpGitHub
@matt to be clear I'm not sure if any uses minidump-debugger For Real -- I made it last year to mess with egui and also demo the functionality of rust-minidump (whose primary users use it as a library or cli in their infra)
but it definitely *works* and is useful (although some of the log viewer stuff is dubious absent a good Text Editor widget in egui that can handle enormous amounts of text)
But it's important to still bring it up, and thank you for doing so.
At some point, you MIGHT be the first, and that helps us make a better product.

A.-T. Le et al., "A cross-process Spectre attack via cache on RISC-V processor with trusted execution environment"¹
The trust execution environment (TEE) provides a safe region, also known as a secret enclave, for executing private programs that need protection. This work proposed a cross-process exploitation scheme for conducting the cache side-channel attack, Spectre, on RISC-V processors with a trust execution environment. Practical experiments are provided to verify the protected enclave’s security on RISC-V processors with the TEE. In these experiments, the attacker and victim do not share the same address space as in known implementations but are executed in separate processes. The experimental results show that initial leakage information from the cache memory can be recorded. To the best of our knowledge, no prior research has been conducted on the Spectre attack against RISC-V’s TEE. This implementation will be a critical component for extending further cache side-channel experiments on the security of RISC-V processors.

Can't believe we're going into year 4 of this shit with the elites clearly showing *they* still think covid is an issue and they don't wanna get it but everyone still is like "idk I don't hear about it so it must be over"
Or the even worse "you gotta live your life". Idk man I feel like dying of a stroke, pulmonary embolism, or heart attack is at odds with the "live" part of your statement

So OpenAI just released a detector of AI-generated text, I assume because of concerns in education / homework.
openai.com/blog/new-ai-classif…
Maybe this is good?
No, it's very bad.
They claim 26% true positives, 9% false positives. Assume 10% of submitted homework is chatgpt generated, you get the classic counterintuitive outcome of poor predictive power: if a homework is flagged, there's a 3:1 chance it's *human* generated.
This is going to cause a lot of harm. It should be immediately recalled.

This is the saddest headline I've ever seen. And there have been a whole lot of sad headlines lately.

That's understandable because manually managing these is messy no matter how the api looks like. It really ought to be automatic. And browsing view already makes back button and header bar title management automatic, so why not these 2?
One of the ideas for solving it was to have header bars track their own positions, but that cannot really work in GTK, so nope.
So instead AdwHeaderBar is just aware of AdwDualPaneView now. It works, but only for dual pane view and not app reimplementations. So if some app reimplements it, they will still have to track it manually. Not great, but I guess this is the best we can do here.
One thing I'm still very unhappy with is the styles. While having a dedicated widget for this finally makes it possible to have a different background for sidebars like some people have been requesting for ages, that style only makes sense with flat header bars.
And now we run into a problem. We don't have flat header bars elsewhere, and in a large part because of technical issues.
Scrolling content needs undershoot styles, like the shadow on my screenshots. So no problem, we will add it to all scrolled windows... Except what if it doesn't touch the header bar?
Oh, and we also need it on the bottom because of action bars that also have to be flat. So we'll also add it there...
And now it's ugly in a lot of other cases. Like when 2 scrolled windows touch each other like here in Builder, or when it touches the window edge. So that's not an option either and has to be manual.
At that point all of this needs to be manual really and now we end up with a completely nonsense style OOTB with non-flat header bars inside an already dark header bar.
And what's the solution? Who knows.

Whenever I hear about Musk losing 200 billion dollars I remind myself that there are people in the world who could simply end global hunger outright, on a whim, people who would be revered as our highest saints until the end of human history, who just decide they can't be bothered to do that, and that's why we need a wealth tax.
