In other videos you can also see him being dragged off by bystanders in the end.

Is there any situation where you’d want to remember the opcodes? Disassemblers should give you user-friendly assembly code, without any need to look at the raw numbers. Maybe it’s useful to remember which instructions are pseudo instructions (so you know stuff like jz
(jump if zero) being the same as je
(jump if equal) making it easier to understand the disassembly), but I don’t think you need to remember the opcode numbers for that.
Edit: Maybe with malware analysis where the malware in question may be obfuscated in interesting ways to make the job of binary analysis harder?
they break with monospacedness
The IDEs I’ve used had the ligatures be of the same character width as the original operator.
Why are you casting to void*
? How is the compiler supposed to know the size of the data you are dereferencing?
That was unexpectedly quick. I thought we’d be waiting years before we could even begin talking about any kind of measures that could be taken in response to the crimes (assuming that it wouldn’t be dismissed on the way).
(pretty sure they are talking about the scary book that is the Communist Manifesto, which is visible in the picture. I think it is about a ghost haunting Europe or something)

I wonder what sort of mitigations we can take to prevent such kind of attacks, wherein someone contributes to an open-source project to gain trust and to ultimately work towards making users of that software vulnerable. Besides analyzing with bigger scrutiny other people’s contributions (as the article mentioned), I don’t see what else one could do. There are many ways vulnerabilities can be introduced and a lot of them are hard to spot (especially in C with stuff like undefined behavior and lack of modern safety features) , so I don’t think “being more careful” is going to be enough.
I imagine such attacks will become more common now, and that these kind of attacks could become very appealing for governments.
I wouldn’t trust ChatGPT with teaching me about some tool. It in my experience very convincingly spews out stuff it invented, and if one is still learning I can see it being hard to spot those errors. I use it to fix syntax errors in SQL queries, though, since I can’t be bothered to try understanding the not-so-helpful error messages I get with my queries, and because if chaptgpt tells a lie it will be caught by my syntax checker.
So, I guess you can use it, if you always assume it to be trying to mislead you until proven to the contrary.
if you look hard enough
I think I have seen as many VGA cables as I did HDMI ones. I also have seen many people using adapters for the two standards. So I think they are still very common.
Never saw that one used to hit people with.
In my experience it was always a finger, unless you mean something else by “down low”.
What are the two feather-like shapes attached to it?
Is xml really that unreadable for machines? I enjoy xml as a format, because I can generally just convert it to an s-expression and easily manipulate it as a tree.
I don’t remember the last time I had to worry about the compression. I simply run tar xf myfile.tar.whatever
and it works every time.
That’s not Newton’s contribution. Aristotle already said that an object only moves if a force acts upon it.
Thanks for the warning.
