Moreover, i imagine a lot of these bots are built on top of an SDK instead of directly working with API calls, so would be just a matter of changing the SDK internals.

interesting. I hope it's not too late to ask: could you expand a little bit, in particular, what do you mean by "over very general dataflow graphs"?

machine code generation.
So basically rustc_codegen_gcc and cranelift can compile code that don't with LLVM and then introduce (or solve) new bugs?

But I wonder if it's not always intentional as maybe ad blockers kill some of paywalls some times?

The irony is that someone paid for a 3 letters domain + infrastructure to keep this running for free.

Amazing app, I hope it will last for a long time.

Very cool!! On the last update 0.10 -> 0.11, I had to make quite a few changes on my app, but this time it compiled out of the box!

12ft.io is actually down for me now:
This Deployment has been disabled.
Your connection is working correctly.
Vercel is working correctly.

Vet is probably a very good example of economies of scale. I remember a vet in my town in Brazil complaining how hard it is if he get ill (or take vacations i presume), that he will lose his customers and how much he regretted not becoming a state employee.

A good example of that is how the Axiom of choice impacts the measure/probability theory.
It imply the existence of some sets that cannot be Lebesgue measured (which is an generalization of width, volume, etc for arbitrary sets, also generalization of probability for arbitrary sets)... but it's not possible to present a single example of those non measurable sets, only prove that they exist.
And it's possible to construct an alternative theory with the axiom of determinacy, then any subset of R is measurable.

oh, I have missed this and right at the top of the article, thanks!
_ahxg | 2 years ago | on: Exploiting DNS response parsing on the Wii U
> At this point I was interested and decided to take a look if the Wii U implementation suffers from the same issue. To my surprise the Wii U implementation looks something like this instead
So, how does the author got hold of Wii's code, is it publicly available or was it some kind of reverse engineering?
_ahxg | 2 years ago | on: After 28 years, SSLv2 is still not gone from the internet
If I understood it correctly, it can actually be worse than fallback to plain text, because if a malicious actor can stability a connection using legacy SSLv2, then this connection can be used to decrypt the session for users running the latest TLS version.
While plain text connections would affected only users using the plain text connection.

I swear I thought it was about banning trading futures on Onion Tor hidden services. Then on second read I thought it was about banning trading in layers, like onions, whatever that meant.

same for me. That and vertical tabs are quite convenient. IPFS integration is also quite cool, would be nice to see that in all mainstream browsers.

_ahxg | 2 years ago | on: Instagram apologizes for inserting 'terrorist' into Palestinian bio translations
I use Facebook translation from Ukrainian to English quite often, and frankly it's much lower quality than Google Translate.
Quite often I saw quite similarly absurd stuff coming out of those translations, so I'm not at all surprised at this.
_ahxg | 2 years ago | on: Why Async Rust?

At this point in time, if you use Tokio, won't basically everything mainstream work? At least that has been my experience so far.
