@chungyc @alios @troed That's what I'm trying to do rn, and I will probably get there at some point, but what I'm looking for is a complete solution.

@mcc in several ways - though not all - I would argue that documentation is the _only_ technology, in that it advances the state of the art of what is known, can be constructed, can be built upon, and can be abstracted and generalized.

Without documentation, a new invention is just a device: interesting, perhaps so much so that it sparks inspiration in someone else to understand it, but it goes little further than that until it is documented in a way intended to communicate its key insights.

@hibbittsdesign This is a great service but I'm looking for something completely offline.

@troed @singe This is also a great start:

https://jez.io/pandoc-markdown-css-theme/

@troed @singe Yes, in case of Pandoc I think a nice collection of unified styles would be great. pandoc-templates.org is a good start, but each template works differently as they are maintained by several people for several purposes.

@virtualabs Nice, thank you!

[RSS] Micropatches Released for Microsoft Management Console Security Feature Bypass Vulnerability (CVE-2025-26633)

https://blog.0patch.com/2025/05/micropatches-released-for-microsoft.html

@alios @troed I think static site generators are overkill for my use-case: I don't want to edit config files or maintain a Git repo. The optimal solution would be a command line utility that takes a style name and one .md file and outputs one HTML file, simple as that.

@singe Pandoc would be great but I'm yet to find a project that provides nice styles *and* documents how to use them with Pandoc.

I need a tool that can generate self-contained HTML pages from #Markdown with different styles.

markdown-styles looks really close, but I wonder if there are alternatives (preferably not requiring NodeJS):

V now supports 3 more architectures:

- loongarch64
- riscv32
- s390x (IBM Z)

@b0rk Not exactly, but a privileged binary can take it granted that `ls` always executes `/bin/ls`, but runs an attacker provided executable instead (very stupid, but real example). Now this usually happens without switching a "PATH provider", but my gut feeling is that having "one central place" for PATH processing would've prevented at least some of these issues.

@b0rk I think exploits passing e.g. PATH=. instead of the expected system value (e.g. via misconfigured sudo) can be called a "problem" :)

I always find it a bit surprising that "looking up executables in PATH" isn't implemented in one central place (there are at least 3 implementations that I use regularly: in libc, my shell, in Go, and probably more that I don't know about)

it's a weird thing because there are actually many different implementations, but I think in general the implementations act similarly enough that you can pretend there's only 1 implementation, I've never actually run into a problem caused by this

@virtualabs I have no clue but GH discussions are regularly answered by devs, usually worth to ask there too.

Hey fedi, if someone knows how to correctly define parallelized instructions in Ghidra's SLEIGH, well, I'm more than interested !

Or if you are aware of any decent documentation on how to define parallelized instructions in SLEIGH and want to share some pointers, that would be awesome too 😊

Types of codebases my customers send me:

- Enterprise javabean factory factory... on a SIM card

- C# programmer retasked to write an authenticated bootloader in C for an arm platform with no training

- Beautiful well-written, easy-to-read C by an experienced systems programmer, with one mind-blowing 100-out-of-100-risk-severity bug buried in miscutils.c

- There is a hermit monk in a cave in Czechia. Once every three years, he emerges with a new revision of the codebase. It is horrifying spaghetti logic that repulses the human soul, but no matter how long and how hard you look, you can't actually find anything wrong with it
