Somehow, I don't think that 2024's richest man in the world, who also is an immigrant, would ever think of using his money to create something like this.

Was that non-admin x-user exploit @gossithedog talked about[1] ever released?

Tired of using outdated languages for #Ghidra scripting or a REPL that you can't even properly paste into? @tmr232 and I wrote a plugin to embed a #Jupyter #Kotlin kernel for a full Notebook environment alongside your GUI.

I have no idea how many of my readers even remember what a Z80 is (the very first computer I used had one), anyway here's a font for you:

“This font converts sequences of hexadecimal lowercase characters into disassembled Z80 instructions, by making extensive use of OpenType's Glyph Substitution Table (GSUB) and Glyph Positioning Table (GPOS).”

I stand with @internetarchive 🏛️

I’m a software developer with a bunch of industry experience. I’m also a comp sci professor, and whenever a CS alum working in industry comes to talk to the students, I always like to ask, “What do you wish you’d taken more of in college?”

Almost without exception, they answer, “Writing.”

One of them said, “I do more writing at Google now than I did when I was in college.”

I am therefore begging, begging you to listen to @stephstephking: https://mstdn.social/@stephstephking/113336270193370876

Any hints about what can cause these vertical lines on my Featherwing OLED display (SH1107)? Soldering is definitely messy but I dont think that would cause such static, localized errors.

It's interesting to think that "my browser doesn't work with this website" used to mean "my browser is out of date". Now it means "someone intentionally broke this website for my browser because it supports ad blocking"

Everything I knew about Python parameter passing was a fucking lie.

In combination with the research published yesterday by ETHZ into IBPB implementation vulnerabilities on some Intel and AMD CPUs (https://comsec.ethz.ch/research/microarch/breaking-the-barrier/), Johannes Wikner has published a detailed walkthrough of the first cross-process Spectre exploit against a real target, an attack he developed in part during his internship with us last year.

Check it out here: https://grsecurity.net/cross_process_spectre_exploitation

The first ever end-to-end cross-process Spectre exploit? I worked on this during an internship with @grsecurity! An in-depth write-up here:
