Yesterday as I was helping someone with their computer a couple of coworkers were talking about how the hunter biden trial was super quick compared to trumps and yadda yadda yadda. Its mind boggling. Like, guys you got what you wanted. You can legally say Hunter is a criminal without it being libel/slander. Hes a felon now. What did this accomplish exactly now that hes a criminal? Hes still not on any ballot. Hes still a fail son, but like he’s not doing anything.
Hmmmm. Best outcome I can think of would be the judge telling the dao to fuck off then putting pharma bro back in prison because.
This is fairly common for tech jobs, asking for more experience than is phisically possible. Theres a whole sub about shit like this on the old site.
I just rewatched all of the fox seasons with my gf, were on the movies now, but my god so much of the fox era holds up so well 20 years later.
Honnest answer, 1/2 in DEC is 0.5 easy. 1/2 in base 13 is .6666666666… Easy but ugly. You want a base that has comon fractions easily represented by decimals. People like dozenal since many fractions are easily represented. 1/2 = 0.6, 1/3 = 0.4, 1/4 = 0.3
I’m personally a fan of hexidecimal partly because I’m a programmer and partially because it can be halved several times
Dude’s out here trying to get us to use base 13.
Just saw one for the first time today. Man its honestly much worse in person.
Yeah, theres shit like the battle of blair mountain that everyone should look into.
Hey, my fellow 'Muricans, we actually took up arms here for our right to have a living wage
Didn’t New Worlds turn into a ghost town month after launch?
Oh god damnit. I could have gotten a much better one
I played it a few months ago on my deck. It has default preset that holds an extremely solid (i think) 30 fps from my testing. Whatever the target was it held really well
So if you don’t mind 30 FPS the default is pretty good.
Anyone who has played the game knows what level you’re talking about, and I find myself launching Titanfall 2 every now and then just to play it.
Ye, it’s a real thing. A quick google search for the term “companies that buy software exploits” lead me to the following real companies that will buy exploits you find; zerodium, offensive cyber, and vupen. In fact, zerodium currently has a $400,000 bounty for an exploit for microsoft outlook. It’s very useful for say something like a government to know about these hacks in case say they want to hack someone. For example stuxnet was written by the US to fuck with Iranian centrifuges.
Pegasus isn’t just a single exploit. It uses many and every patch to an OS doesn’t fix every single exploit so there’s always another way Pegasus can break into the system. Also, do you think that with every update to iOS the developers are rewriting their entire code base? I’ve written lots of updates for my software and I almost never scrap the entire thing when I need to do rewrites.
Again, Apple, a 2 TRILLION dollar company, can only fix exploits they know exist.
Theres literally a functioning business model of “find zero-day exploits for software X and sell that info to the highest bidder”. There is actively many huge bounties for currently working exploits that you, random dude on the internet, can get if you can show that an unknown bug can be used to gain access to some software. Pegasus is one of the groups buying the exploits and then using it.
It is a perpetual cat and mouse game. Every time that Apple is made aware of an exploit they patch it asap, but that doesn’t mean they’ve fixed every exploit. You can’t fix a bug unless you know it’s there.
Hey some of us said we’d go on indefinately and after being told to open decided to maliously comply only. /r/baduibattles a sub I started is now only letting posts be of New reddit or the Reddit app. User involvement has plummeted, there are fewer posts, each with votes and comments. Automod also posts telling people to join us at !bad_ui_battles@programming.dev
I was looking into self hosting. What can I do to avoid dealing with this? Can I not cache images? Would I get in legal trouble for being federated with an instance being spammed?
There are a lot of flavors of SQL each with their own syntax. I’ve been using Microsoft’s SQL now for 3 years and the syntax I used is correct for that.
Yeah
SELECT TOP(100) * FROM POSTS ORDER BY DATEPOSTED
Is a relatively straight forward command to a database and hell, I’m guessing extremely readable by your average Joe.
Yes actually.
What? Are you saying a bunch of racist slave holders might have also been ageist? Complaing about “kids these days”?
