What if, and follow me here, we threw POSIX in the trash?
@petrillic all the TOCTOU-ridden VFS calls need to be completely incinerated and pthreads needs to go.
i have a proposal for syscalls that initiate a state machine to perform transactional modifications to a local fs chroot as well as persistent disk and that proposal is fully backwards-compatible.
oh and every process is always running in a chroot. virtual memory for i/o. tell your friends

Hey folks (near Sun Valley, Idaho):
Next week I’m taking part in the event below. It’s a series of conversations—panels—with a host of really interesting women.
Posting for those who may have interest.

What's the word for that emotion where you encounter something that you've made your life's work and special interest and have put a lot of time effort and study into it and then burnt out completely and now whenever you encounter it you physically recoil and don't want to learn anything new about it or hear about it ever again?
@tinker I don’t know but I’m sorry. That sucks.
Maybe it’s “Learning to say no”?
The Inquirer building also housed (until a few years before they moved) their printing plant, making it one of the last major dailies where it was at least theoretically possible for an editor to run downstairs and yell "stop the presses!" if a major story came in. But I'll bet that didn't actually happen very often.
@mattblaze ... with how loud printing machinery tends to be, I'd be surprised if anyone could hear them if they did. (... not to mention how many people operating printing machinery were deaf, and thus could not have heard it either way, ofc.)

Urgent: I need $3,000 to save a my friend Paul's feline furbaby and I have about 5-6 days to do it. Pictured below is Atticus. Atticus is a sweet boi who is caught between a vet and a hard place. He needs surgery that costs real money and if he can't get it, he'll be put down. If he can get the money, the prognosis is good. I'm donating $300, we need $2700 to save Atticus. You can send money via Venmo (@PaulDitz) CashAp ($PaulDitz) or Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/PaulDitz
I vouch for this fundraiser.
Okay, unfortunately I am not destined to stay up all night with you today folks - my arm has been ever so slightly out of the socket for 3 days now, and I'm losing the ability to just gut through it while waiting for it to pop back. It's part of the same long term problems I have with it, but it's been really flaring up recently.
Right now, the most important thing on my plate is saving a cat named Atticus and I'd appreciate your help if you can spare it: https://jorts.horse/@AnarchoNinaWrites/117142048494965543
Goodnight.

I gotta say... doing an rsync of your ~ to a new laptop is a much better experience than transferring shit to a new phone.
(New phone, first since 2017, and oh man.)
@ajroach42 I saw a guy who looked just like you at a rest stop in Wisconsin yesterday
@crazybutable There are four or five of us in the wild.
@wdormann LMAO
@malwaretech @wdormann turning CTRL+ALT+DEL on for client machines is just a group policy away. I'm sure that'd be one way to confuse an entire enterprise :)

@hipsterelectron The bug was not the use of uninitialized memory as random input.
Upstream openssl was using uninitialized memory as one ingredient to seed entropy. This was of course UB, and the compiler *could have* chosen to disregard all the entropy as a result of seeing the UB. But it didn't. In practice it worked.
(But needed to be fixed because it could break at any time, since it was UB.)
Debian spotted the UB and "fixed" it by removing the entropy initialization alltogether to "make the warning go away". 🤡 So their version was producing the same "random" sequence every time it ran.

I am shocked. Nobody could have seen it coming. Nobody, I tell you! :blobcatcoffee:

> As one New York financier told Financial Times journalist Gillian Tett, new hires who were seen as “AI natives” are turning out to have alarmingly shallow ideas. So much so, the anonymous finance worker admitted, that his firm now actively avoids seeking out AI-literate STEM graduates, and opts to comb through humanities students instead.
Oh, the humanities!
