> two different owners simultaneously believe they are the sole owner of an object.

Not in the sense of ownership that matters in Rust. The Vec owns the data. A node with an index in it does not own that data. It merely refers to it.

The key here is when you answer the question, "what happens when I screw it up the indices?" And the answer is logic errors or a panic. Neither of those are memory safety issues.
Some bridges have fenders, my understanding is that with existing brudges whether they can be retrofitted, even if resources exists, depends on the channel and the kind of traffic it needs to handle, because they take up soace that can be nontrivial in a tight channel.

Statistical sampling: a typically academic smart reply.

I believe smartness is an ability to intuitively see patterns that others do not obviously see. Our writing is full of signals and some people are adept at reading a lot into a simple comment. I'm not suggesting I'm any good at it, and unfortunately there are also a lot of people who think they're good but are not.

Mentioning "IQ" at all is a huge flag: often used by people that are academically successful but that is a poor measure of how smart someone is.

While my comment was written in a cheeky style, I am actually writing about my own experience as a reasonably smart person dealing with my own lack of wisdom over the years.

Don't worry: I don't actually suspect you have a low IQ.

Yes, completely off-topic, I shouldn't bite I know!
Primarily? Yes. But there are even companies that rather lose money than compromise on some product or other principles. Mind you, those are privately owned. Boards and shareholders fuck everything they touch.
For laypeople and casual sailors, thinking of the rudder as just redirecting water is good enough.

But water and air are both fluids and the same aerodynamic/hydrodynamic rules apply.

A rudder on a boat or airplane is symmetrical in cross section; the chord on both sides is equal. Wings and hydrofoils are asymmetrical; usually the “top” has a deeper chord than the “bottom”. But rudders are a still a kind of wing in that they generate a useful force by redirecting a fluid and thereby inducing a pressure differential. The pressure differential between the two sides is what causes lift - vertically with wings/foils and horizontally with rudders. If you think about it, this makes perfect sense – it would be silly to think that rudders and ailerons and elevators obey different laws than wings. In fact, one of the first things you learn as a racing sailor is that the sails themselves are wings - they’re not “parachutes” as commonly believed.

Anyway, my point was that you can stall a rudder just like an airplane can stall its wings- if the angle of attack is too high.

Stalling, the rudder, most commonly occurs during a round up, if you’re familiar with sailing with spinnakers. The rudder in that case is no longer able to generate enough lift (turning force) To counter the turning force, imparted by the force on the spinnaker forward of the center of mass of the boat, and the boat turns uncontrollably.

I am just speculating, but if the rudder became very misaligned compared to the direction of the ship, then when power was restored, the rudder might not be able to establish laminar flow and therefore would be stalled and unable to provide turning force.
Maybe not, but it's also not whatever unconventional definition you've come up with here.

Well, we're not talking about "pseudo-UAF", we're talking about actual-UAF and actual-memory-safety.

You use scare quotes around "freed" for a reason: the data has not actually been freed.

The bug you're talking about is a logic error. It could be a bad bug, depending on circumstances, but there's no memory safety issue here.

>>A law indicates that a large group agrees that something is bad.

No, it only indicates that a potentially very small group who has gained power agrees that something is bad.

This is especially true in a system that does not require runoff elections (or an Instant Runoff voting system) so that the winner must gain a majority of votes, or where various forms of voter suppression, skewing, or not playing by the rules happen (e.g., sham elections as happened in Russia).

Mugshots are a benefit to the public. I can think of 2 instances where it has been beneficial to me. I found out I was working with a guy who had been in prison for threatening to murder a lawmaker and another time found out I was working with a convicted rapist who was facing more child rape charges. The mugshots confirmed that it was these guys, they both had somewhat common names.

"Pros" is not well defined, unless if it's just used to mean "people getting paid for work they do by using the software" (what actually separates the pros from the non-pros: getting paid).

Otherwise, it's a "no true Scotsman" thing, only including the 10% of hardcore graphic designers deep into Photoshop and Illustrator and such, and not the 90% of web designers, app UI designers, content creators, artists, and others, who might or might not use Adobe, but that still often make more $ than belleguered "pro" graphic designers.

It's like how an exexutive using an MBP and making $500,000k/year is "not a pro" for some, but some guy using it to make $70k/year is, and somehow gets to define what is or isn't a "pro machine".

For what many (or most) people do in 2024, many alternatives, including Affinity, Canva, Figma, Sketch, and others, are fine for their professional (as in, charging customers, or earning money by work created using the software) use cases.
Because that's not what "UAF" means. Also not what "freed" means.

To have a UAF, there has to be memory that is actually freed, and you have to attempt to access that memory. No memory is freed here (in the OP's implementation). Even if it was, at worst you'd get a panic for trying to access past the end of the Vec.

None of that is a UAF or a memory safety issue. It's just a logic bug.

Upvote-based, threaded discussions are not conversations and are severely lacking in nutritional value. They’re popular because they require little commitment and give you a quick dopamine hit.

The naysayers, even if they aren't strawmen, weren't "saying" anything of note. There aren't any mysteries or questions here: what can be achieved is predetermined by the factors involved. The key figures of merit are power, gain, path loss, noise and receiver sensitivity. Whatever those factors are determines feasible range, and they are all well understood.

I wonder if anything else might have happened around 2020 to increase ER wait times due to lack of beds in the hospital?

They might be awful scum; don't know. But ER's are very, very expensive places to keep patients waiting for a bed. The claim that nursing shortages in the hospital drove this is not implausible. And when nurses can make several times as much money doing travel nursing in big cities, how's a place like Bristol going to compete? They wouldn't have left their families for $10-20 more per hour; they left for four to five times the money per hour. Or even more.

Rich, big cities absolutely used their financial means to make sure they had nurses. Where did they come from? Small, poor cities and rural areas. In peak COVID, there were nurses being offered $10k/week with free housing. A brutal schedule to match the pay, of course, but if you live in Bristol, a month away would pay for a year of college for a child.
You won't/can't have it in a direct function call invocation style of programming. E.g. if you have a control loop like "call A, pass result to B, pass result to C" then it's impossible for A to be "too fast."

Network calls are the biggest source of asynchronously queued execution, but you can find models where you have it on a local machine too with multiprocessing. A trivial silly non-network single-machine example might be something like unpacking compressed files than doing [thing] with their contents - maybe you have enough CPU to do them in parallel, but you don't want to blow up your disk by unpacking all of them with no throttling. Even in your lexer/parser example if you wanted to parallelize those steps with a queue in between them, in theory you could have such a huge input that you ran out of memory... in practice, nah, that's not very likely the way you'd do it, or a problem you'd have.

Sometimes "just drop things" or "just make the slow part faster" still aren't really easy/feasible/acceptable even without distributed systems.

Greed has taken big notice of an ageing population, in need of more medical interventions or long term care as they age, ready to be sucked dry of every little $ to the cent.

The callousness of a system like this, it's tendency to rob people of their dignity, and the seeming indifference of any people or organizations with the power or capacity to intervene, is profoundly depressing. A system that holds healthcare behind a tollbooth, equating quality of care with wealth, implying only the rich deserve quality care and the nonrich deserve whatever they can get, is inhumane and plain mean.
