Aren’t exploits on assembly reverse engineering?

Substack is the real 2008 Twitter alternative, having more people in a platform is a anti-feature
There simply isn’t a proper contender to Apple. And with Apple silicon, it’s a done deal for the next decade at least. Apart from hardware, you need a company that is willing to take Linux from the ground up and create a macOS type OS. Not simply make your own distribution and DE and call it a day. Chromebook was close, but they had bad execution and wrong ideas.

As an aside, anyone have any insight on people with NSAID allergies? I pretty much have not taken aspirin/NSAIDs since the first allergic response as a child. What can people like myself do for anti-inflammation?

Re:Towards Fully Automated Manga Translation on Tuesday December 29, 2020 @08:15PM (#25577201)
Some translators that still insist on localizing honorifics is funny, stuff like using Sir or making up a nickname for a character. I wonder what the Japanese do when translating English source to Japanese, do they insert honorifics where it doesn’t exist in the source?

I heard of a technique to wear shirts with faces on them to throw off the detection.
Re:Go Contracts – Draft Design on Monday July 29, 2019 @08:03PM (#20560830)
Searching “trait bounded generics” reveals nothing generic. Only rust results.

Did you mean ad-hoc polymorphism?

Great that they listened to the community
Are the infections happening because of the close proximity that animals are kept in?
The statistics for this include motorcycles. I would really like to see one for only vehicles.
You think this is weird. Then realize kids get put on their school group based on the birth year in the west anyway.

I wonder how a biological age based school grouping system would work out.

This already happens, spinbots and speedhacks aren’t a thing anymore.

The current hacks are aim triggers, aim lock, aim/spray assist, and some close proximity wallhack.

The cheats calculate the recoil spread and auto lock to enemy heads. It’s obviously not as a bad as before with client side bullets, but it is still a problem.

I had h. Pylori. It can also give you stomach ulcers, which was quite painful.
Re:Lisp and Haskell (2017) on Sunday July 15, 2018 @08:26AM (#17534949)
Well there are more Haskell jobs than rust here, so I wouldn’t say more mainstream.

Syntax isn’t as nice as Haskell as well. A Haskell programmer fed up with purity would just move to Ocaml or F# tbh.

Re:The Last Hope for Scala's Infinity War [video] on Thursday July 12, 2018 @12:50AM (#17512250)
F# will gain more traction once the C# HKT proposal champion gets approved and merged (which will be a CLR change)
Not really, C# and java have not historically produced static binaries. Unless using some third party tool.

Re:How knowing Lisp destroyed my programming career (2006) on Wednesday March 14, 2018 @08:40AM (#16584325)
More importantly it isn’t statically typed (like F#, Haskell, etc)

Apparently this lays the ground work for the full proposal of Shapes

Aka typeclasses

Korea already does this for their games as well. In a mmo game like Maplestory they also always show your real life gender (since a ID is required to register) and even have 18+ restricted areas within the game
It's about what government can do to promote against smoking. Anti smoking ads, anti smoking packaging laws, school exercises, etc about smoking over the years in Australia have led to a rapid decrease in smokers over there.
