I am dabbling with .NET Maui and developing an application for Android. Tied to that I have just changed laptop. On my previous laptop I had Windows 11 Pro but the new one has Windows 11 Home.

In the mid-to-late 80s, my excitement used to culminate by the end of the month when BYTE’s new issue would hit the newsstands[^2]. In my small Italian hometown, only one, sometimes two, newsstands would sometime get a copy (BYTE was published in the US and copies sent abroad were scarce; only major, close-to-the-train-station stands had a chance to receive it). I wasn’t the only kid in town interested in that elusive one issue; I had an an..

In this two part series, we'll walk through some of the things you need to consider when finding instances of a vulnerability in your software supply chain. Let’s begin by discussing where you’ll need to look for vulnerable libraries, and review some tips and tricks for searching.

The Linux mount command is a powerful tool that allows you to attach file systems to your system's file hierarchy. In other words, you can use the mount command to access the contents of a file system, which may be stored on a local hard drive, network server, or even a CD or USB drive. In this article, we will cover the basics of using the mount command to mount and unmount file systems on Linux systems.

As AI increasingly affects our lives, businesses may look to their software engineers for explanations regarding AI model outputs and guidance implementing and integrating these systems. Understanding the foundations of AI may become essential, even for software engineers that do not aspire to becoming AI researchers. In this series of articles, I shall attempt to produce a layperson software engineer’s guide to understanding neural network....

I have made a career out of WordPress. I am personally responsible for the security, stability, and updates of 500+ active WordPress installations (not including the few multi-sites.) Collectively, they receive hundreds of thousands of unique visitors per day . I have grown to love WordPress over the years, wholeheartedly recommending it to friends, family, and clients for all sorts of use-cases, and I don’t regret it. WordPress is the c....



If you’ve been unlucky to converse with someone who has recently bought a bidet, they’ve probably told you how it changed their lives like some sort of newfound religion. As someone who converted to Bidetism recently, I’m here to tell you four reasons why you shouldn’t. Have you ever looked at your toilet and thought it could remind you more of a nursing home? With a bidet, you can. Strap an enormous white plastic throne to your diminutive ..

This is a summary of Automated Antenna Design with Evolutionary Algorithms , a 2006 paper by Hornby et al. As large language models become more and more synonymous with “AI”, it is interesting to see how researchers solved problems in the past. Typically, antennas are designed and built by hand by domain experts. This is a very time-consuming process, however, so researchers have been investigating evolutionary algorithms since the 1990..



I have just published a preprint of a paper ‘Weighted quantile estimators’. It’s based on a series of my research notes that I have been writing since September 2020. The paper preprint is available on arXiv: arXiv:2304.07265 [stat.ME] . The paper source code is available on GitHub: AndreyAkinshin/paper-wqe . You can cite it as follows: Andrey Akinshin (2023) “Weighted quantile estimators” arXiv:2304.07265 Abstract: In this ..

The Linux operating system is a favorite among developers, system administrators, and power users due to its flexibility, security, and stability. One of the many built-in utilities available in Linux is the split command, which is used to split large files into smaller, more manageable parts or join multiple smaller files into a single, larger file. In this article, we'll explore how to use the split command for file splitting and concaten..

In recent years, a lot of note taking applications (or personal knowledge base tools if you prefer the term) have entered the space. Prominent examples are Roam Research , Obsidian , Notion and countless alternatives and reimplementations of those. On the other hand, there are older ones, and there's one literal elephant in the room, and it's called Evernote . Evernote is one of the oldest applications in this space. Started as a sui....

Before you read I found out the code here doesn’t work outside IPython, I didn’t realize that get_ipython() only works when running inside IPython. But the examples here work in isolated scripts if you run the script using ipython: ipython benchmarh.py. Introduction I like using IPython to measure the execution time of Python functions. You can also time functions using the timeit module, but the IPython utilities are just more conve..

DEF CON will always be a cash-at-the-door conference. We will always honor the LineCon with pizza and beachballs. This is the way. However, the online option we introduced at DC Safe Mode has proven quite popular. It seems a lot of you appreciate the convenience of pre-registration so we’re keeping it for DEF CON 31. Tickets are available now at shop.defcon.org , BYOP(izza).


I've recently started using ntfy to send notifications to my phone from some scripts I'm running on my home NAS. This works great, but when I'm on my PC, I'd rather get notifications there instead of on the phone. There doesn't seem to be a desktop app for ntfy, but luckily the API is extremely simple. I've also recently started picking up Python, so I decided to whip together a simple ntfy notification delivery system for the Linux deskt....

This article demonstrates how to patch deserialization vulnerabilities in Node.js. We’ll create vulnerable code, demonstrate an attack, and then fix the vulnerabilities.

So the data within your organization spans across multiple databases, database platforms, and even storage types, but you need to bring it together and make sense of the data that's dispersed. This is... The post Delivering a Near Real-Time Single View into Operations with a Federated Database appeared first on MongoDB .

We looked into the internal of Corax’s posting list and in the last post I mentioned that we have a problem with the Baseline of the page. We are by no means the first people to work with posting lists, and there is a wide body of knowledge on the topic. When it came time to figure out the compression format for our posting list, we used the PFOR format (Patched Frame of Reference). It, like pretty much all other integer compression m....

Here’s a compiler flag that slipped my notice: Clear Linux has -fzero-call-used-regs=used in its CFLAGS for security-sensitive x86_64 packages, wiping call-used registers on return to protect against ROP exploits. In my benchmarks, there was almost no perf difference between skip, used-gpr and used which is surprising; I thought that this would really hurt instruction cache optimization. Either optimizing compilers have rendered even m..


This guide helps you start quickly with using Nix as a package manager. This guide covers setting up, nix-shell, nix-env -iA, and Home Manager. Here’s a quick way to get started with using Nix as a package manager without diving into the complex internals: Install Nix with sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install) --daemon. Make sure to add that snippet at the end to your shell configuration or you’ll have some trouble later. Run ni....
