You all are talking about God’s existence, and I’m just over here wondering if I found my therapist’s account.

I mean, does writing in Python rather than C free up your mind? It’s just another abstraction tradeoff.

He’s talking about Andres Freund, who uncovered the OpenSSL backdoor that was slipped into liblzma from the xz malicious maintainer. Dude saw a valgrind error and a function with a fixed runtime was taking too long and using too much CPU and reversed out and saved a major ssh backdoor from going upstream as Fedora was going to release it just days later.

Not enough to buy Bortles Era Jacksonville Jags, much less now when they are somehow much worse.

I actually disagree from a systems engineer perspective: The program doesn’t actually know shit if those bits hit any permanent medium, just that the OS told them “I’ll take care of it” it could be sitting in a write back cache when you save, see the “write complete” and rip the power and that’s all gone now. Basically, I don’t like promising durability when it’s not really there.

Ah, the nightmares of writing F5 iRules.

Yea, there’s no where near enough RAM in that system. Add RAM and I’d bet everything fixes itself for a bit.

… You don’t understand this conflict at all, do you? Bibi’s a bastard, but if eligible-to-vote Arab citizens of Israel showed up to vote against the shitheels anywhere near as well as the shitbag American Christian settler contingent, his party could not have formed a government and, since he is currently charged with corruption, his competitor parties wouldn’t have fallen in line to give him a joint government.

Yes… If you’re an Israeli citizen, you’re an Israeli citizen. There’s a sizable proportion of Arabs in Israel, particularly East Jerusalem who chose to hold Jordan citizenship rather than Israeli, and cannot vote.

Shit, if the Palestinian Arabs who could vote, did, Bibi would likely not be in power and things may have turned out differently.

Isn’t just about 20% of the Israeli population Arab? Again: Europe didn’t ethnically cleanse the Middle East. That’d be the belligerents of ‘48 who went from sizable Jewish populations to populations you can count on a hand. You know, a good ol’ fashioned ethnic cleansing.

Here’s a fun “tickle your brain” moment. How many Israelis are descendants of ethnically cleansed Jews from other middle eastern states? The other half of the catastrophe that Hamas supporters really don’t want to talk about.

Israel’s not using Fuel-Air bombs here. There’s no point. They’re just using a shedload of mk 80 series with guidance systems. Probably the Mk 81s that the US brought back into service to try and reduce collateral damage during the Iraq war.

I never said beheaded. The other person did.

Feel free to actually click the pictures of you’re so certain Hamas never massacred babies.

It also is really concerned with the “beheading” aspect which again, I haven’t brought up. There’s images of shot and burned babies.

Again: you’re sick in the head and defending people who literally looked at babies and shot and burned them.

Al Jazeera is the mouthpiece of the Qatari ruling party. You know: The people who are hosting the Hamas leaders. That’s like linking to jpost.

No only are you wrong, you’re literally defending people who again literally massacred babies.

You’re sick in the head.

Ah yes, those Hamas fighters couldn’t tell the difference between a DJ’d festival and a military base.

Stop making shit up. Were the babies accidental military combatants?

That happens in the US too. It’s why there’s New York addresses that own huge “fields” of land that’s usually a wetland. The marginal land is protected and they get a corn subsidy from the government to not farm the land.

And also, a field of invasive species that drove out the native plants… Just saying.
