The dungeons look great. One of the reasons is that they contain a lot of symmetry, which makes them more artificial looking than a typical random maze. Wonder how the code generates that symmetry...
There are going to be hundreds or thousands more, possibly outside of their code. They are easy to introduce in your code, fairly easy to find and hard to fix. It's more of an idea or PoC on how to write cheats than a specific exploit.

On another note it's not an exploit in the classic sense - if you own your game you're legally allowed to do what you want with it in most countries AFAIK. I'm not convinced responsible disclosure even applies here.

How do these people become so powerful..? What do they have to give in exchange?
I don't know why this reply is so hostile, but I was curious what part of Windows you were referring to if not UAC, because I don't know of anything else.

There is an almost comical list of bypasses in built-in AutoElevate programs that Microsoft does not triage as security bugs because as you note they don't call UAC a security feature. I think this is a rather silly deflection that users are unlikely to understand, for good reason.
In that same process now.

I can recommend ChiefArchitect. So far it has been great. It is within reach for a technical person to figure out, especially with all the training videos available online for free.

It is also powerful enough to do a lot of the details as well, which we are doing ourselves and then sending back to the architect for review.
This sounds really petty to me, it grinds your gears that the attack developer is proud of their work?

The article implicitly suggests Banksy is making money off his artwork with word choice like "won't let anyone else profit off it". The idea being to paint him as a sellout and a hypocrite.

But is it true? By everyone's admission he isn't selling shoddy kitsch like post cards and fridge magnets. All that's left to sell is the original works, and to the best of my knowledge the people who can actually sell those are usually the owner of the wall itself. He pulled that stunt with the Sotheby's auction. Did he actually get any money after that self destructed? Does anyone anywhere actually have an estimate on how profitable the Banksy operation is?

Contrary to the main sentiment in this thread I've done B2B sales with no prior connections whatsoever. My approach is threefold. Build something that either doesn't exist or is considerably better and cheaper than competition. Give amply time for demoing, like six months free with no strings attached. Be patient.

If I had to choose one approach I'd say demo your service for months so they can get accustomed to it. Most companies I know give demos for very short time-spans. If you give a one month demo the client might not even get the chance to look at it because he has fifty other things to do. Let him get accustomed in using it, making it a part of his workflow.

Right now, I have listed an email on my website above a contact form. To hide the email from scrapers, I just concat different parts of it in javascript on page load and insert it into the html.

I didn't expect that to work but a few years in I've barely seen any spam on the listed email address. All spam I've received on my website has been done through the contact form so it appears bot farms rather solve Google captcha than try to use my email address.

This probably isn't enough for everyone but it might serve as a reminder not to overthink this. The only downside is that users without javascript can't get my email address but as I don't expect many people to visit my personal website that's not an issue to me.
It's a bit of both--frontend and backend.

Part of it is do you REALLY need that H1-B in preference to a domestic worker since any layoff you incur will block your access to that pipeline for the next (n) years. That is a calculation at hiring--aka frontend.

Then, once you have employed an H1-B, you're going to have some reticence to pull the layoff lever as that will now block your H1-B pipeline. That is a calculation at layoff--aka backend.

If your H1-B's are actually, genuinely valuable, the calculations are a business decision. If, however, you are using H1-B's to displace workers and then lay them off, that's going to grind to a halt really quickly.
Interesting choice of words, but unfortunately there isn't really anything you can do about discrimination in a tech job interview in California, especially age discrimination and the authorities don't send secret shoppers into the tech interview process so it continues.

With that said, I would love the author to go on and elaborate on other
advantages of XHTML2, such as possible integrations with XForms
(including more inputs and sending requests without page reloading and
without JavaScript), XFrames, the single header element <h>, every
element as a hyperlink, etc. Then there are MathML and XSLT. If XHTML2
became a reality, we would probably see XSLT 2.0 more actively adopted
by the browser vendors, which is a good thing in my book.

The text of the GPL describes the subject of the license as a "Program" and refers to it as having "machine-readable source code" (or "Corresponding Source" in GPLv3) and an "object code or executable form". It's difficult to interpret what any of this would mean in the context of an artistic work.

You can use Tor for all everyday browsing too, with all the personal accounts and a normal version of Firefox. Still prevents your ISP from learning which sites you visit, still prevents the sites you visit from knowing your IP address, still circumvents any local censorship (which btw is probably the biggest use of Tor, thanks to RuTracker :D). And unlike a VPN provider, you don't have to pay $$$ and don't have a central point of potential logging (don't have to rely on "i swear we don't log" policies).

Even if `<hr />` (or others, e.g., `<img />`) would be required XML processing would not work. HTML (prio to HTML5) was full of quirks (e.g., table handling, formatting elements, ...), which cannot be expressed by a DTD that is used from XML. As a result, the DOM as seen from an XML POV could always be different from the real DOM even if the source could be parsed.

HTML5 just standardized all these quirks, leading to a uniform parsing model instead of an even bigger x-browser mess.

It doesn't make sense to remove someone from a position because of a few things they said. Rather, we should evaluate the individual as a whole.
Is he a good person or a bad person? Is he effective or inneffective? Based on everything I read about Stallman so far over the years, I'd say he is truly decent human being and an extremely effective leader.
He is almost certainly a better person than all of the self-righteous, hypocritical bureaucrats who are now trying to take him down who never did anything altruistic their entire self-centered lives.

IMO, if Stallman didn't do any crime himself, he can say whatever the heck he wants about anything. People need to toughen up and stop being such hypocrites. We all have a brain between our ears; how about we start using it to decide for ourselves if some celebrity or politician is right or wrong instead of trying to censor them. Just because they're famous doesn't mean they're right and it doesn't mean you have to agree with them.
Yet another idiotic, ignorant conflation between HV distribution lines, which CANNOT be buried (not without lots of cost-prohibitive infrastructure), with local distribution lines, which CAN be buried. Hell, why not just pipe in hydrogen or methane ONLY to homes and generate power at the neighborhood level, and skip the losses and dangers incurred by inter-(regional/state/national) HV distribution? Then those lines, at 208-380V range from local generation over short distances can be easily buried as many are now. No more power going out from stormy, windy, icy, hot or dry conditions, same check underground utilities maps before digging process. It's much safer to pump around high energy-density LP fuels than maintain top-down, nonredundant electrical grids that cause fires, go down and take out hundreds of thousands of customers, are inherently risky to lives and property, and require constant and extensive arboreal maintenance.
That's astounding, because the IPCC did not accurately predict 2019's climate change or CO2 in 1982. In fact, Exxon scientists must be time travelers to have foreseen the rise of China at a time when all of the USA was afraid of losing to the Japanese.
Ironically trump makes me feel more secure that the elections are not rigged. Nobody in the GOP, civil service, military, and intelligence communities wanted him. All were very outspoken against him throughout the primaries and even into the election.

Not at all, indeed I do like email as a communication form. It was merely an observation that in practice using email for personal communication is exceedingly rare, at least in my social circles.

From what I can tell, people have not migrated their long form communication to other platforms. Instead people seem to have abandoned long form altogether, as sad as that might be.

It's not really all that crazy. Sure, if you consider languages like C#, it's much more verbose than those, but that's because Rust tries to deal with async without garbage collection. This isn't a typical code you would write in Rust, in fact, in this case, this type was generated by a library.

Dealing with this "ridiculous" type step by step:

Future<Output = User>

This is a future. It returns an user.

dyn

However, because the exact `Future` implementation can vary, dynamic dispatch is necessary. Use of `dyn` keyword explicitly says that a vtable is necessary.

+ Send

Rust is supposed to make programs free from data races. It's very much possible to have objects which aren't allowed to change the thread they are in. For instance, `Rc<T>` (single-thread reference-counting pointer) cannot be sent to other threads due to it using non-atomic reference count.

In this case, using `+ Send` says that whatever future this method returns must be possible to send to other threads. This prevents use of objects like `Rc` within the futures, and allows the future to be used in multi-threaded executors.

+ '_

The method borrows `self` (as seen by the use of `&self`). Saying `+ '_` means that the future should borrow `self`. This is necessary due to lifetimes.

Box<...>

Because dynamic dispatch types (note `dyn` before) can have varying sizes (one future can be smaller, another one can be bigger), it's necessary to wrap them somehow so that they could be represented in memory. In this case, the simplest heap-allocation type (`unique_ptr` in C++) is being used. There are other options, like `Arc<...>`, but in this case, `Box` is sufficient.

Pin<...>

Futures can store pointers to its local fields. This is going to cause issues if the allocation could be moved somewhere else in the RAM - the future would be moved to the new location, but the pointers would still refer to RAM in the old position. Using `Pin` prevents the user from moving the contents of `Box` to another place in the RAM.

Yes, lots of Dolly Parton impersonators around!

Seriously though are they the only state left with "Constables" which are completely independent law enforcement officers who have to buy their own cruisers, guns, and uniforms, which they get to design themselves?

It sounds pretty cool, like there's no possibility of conspiracy with other cops in their department since there aren't any, there's no supervisor so they can't say they were just following orders, and if the entire local police force is corrupt, one can use the constable as a last form of justice. And if people don't like the job they are doing they can simply vote them out.

You can also add dots into random places, which can't be stripped automatically. So you can have the email as.dfg.h@gmail.com as your "official" email, and put random dots when you sign up for something. E.g. a.sd.fgh@gmail.com. Now you can filter out email sent to a.sd.fgh@gmail.com, or to any email that's not as.dfg.h@gmail.com. The spammers won't be able to discover your original address.
Tldr; this article seems highly biased and tries to paint Banksy as an evil corporate mastermind who tries to damage a small home business by ways of shady litigation - while the issue at hand looks more to be that said business tries to make profit off pictures he won't print as merch and prohibiting this is complicated legally without disclosing one's true name.

The article plays on sympathy for the "poor little home run shop" versus Banksy ressorting to "evil lawyers". Feel like it's grossly misrepresenting the matter on purpose.

> In the choice between simple (and cheap and correct) vs complex (and expensive and buggy)

Often simple is not correct. In much of the code I have worked on there is simple code for 99% of cases, but correctly handling the other 1% can be much more complex.

Also, simple is often not fast. An implementation of bubble, insertion, or selection sort is almost always simpler than quicksort, mergesort or especially heapsort.

Web browsers are a really good example that some software needs to be complex to do its job. Web pages can do pretty much anything so web browsers have to support that which requires a bunch of code off the bat.

Not having correct behavior in the 1% of cases is unacceptable because that introduces security problems. And not speeding up webpages as much as possible will make web browsing very unpleasant.

I think if we got a fresh start, we could redefine what a browser needs to do and make it simple and faster, but supporting the web as it exists today requires complexity.
Does anyone know how kotlin coroutines compares to async await in rust?
And why did they choose async instead of coroutines?
I do. I think it's essential if you've a website/blog or occasionally someone wants to contact you personally regarding one of your comments. I find it extremely frustrating to read a blog post, notice an error or a technical configuration issue with their website and then not be able to let the author know. Please make yourself reachable.

I run my own email server and don't do any spam filtering, so I definitely receive more spam than others (0–2 per day), but Thunderbird always puts them into my spam folder.

I hope to eventually add a spam filter in Postfix to deny at the SMTP level. However, configuring DMARC verification and requiring proper RDNS already cut the spam to a third.
