A decade ago it wasn't terrorist groups funding them.

cp, mv, and rm continue to be provided by GNU coreutils in 26.04. These utilities have remaining open TOCTOU (time-of-check to time-of-use) issues (8 as of Apr 22, 2026) that need to be resolved before we are confident shipping them.

Would it still be possible to participate in conversations, would people still be able to subscribe to you?

Yes. I follow several remote users who default to "unlisted" posts. (To be honest, I don't know if they're unlisted or follower-only posts -- I can't tell.)

Extending the grid to power a remote village is not the same thing as the villagers running their own microgrid.

Three movies with overlapping themes came out in mid-1999: The Matrix, The Thirteenth Floor, and eXistenZ (probably in that order of box office revenue).

I don't know if it uses the vector instructions.

I bought the 32 GB emmc module for it, for the root filesystem. I have a 500 GB nvme drive for everything else. I believe an nvme-to-sata riser will work, but I don't have one to test with (plus you'd need to power the sata drive with something else).

Spacemit's website is a pain to use, but the processor appears to work almost exactly like the K1, so:

- go to https://developer.spacemit.com/

- click on documentation

- click on Keystone

- click on K1

I think their point is that Elixir lets you write

    defmodule Multiply do
      def m9(m1), do: m1 * 9
    end

    # elsewhere...
    defmodule Caller do
      def doit() do
        Multiply.m9(2)
        Multiply.m9("hi")
      end
    end

    @spec m9(integer()) :: integer()

Any web server that serves static files will do (like "python3 -m http.server").

This image says 384 KB of RAM: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-dev-kits/en/latest/e...

It also says 320 KB of ROM, which seems low. Judging from the product name (DevKitC-1-N8R4) and their other products, it has 8 MB of flash.

Paper: Coding Malware in Fancy Programming Languages for Fun and Profit

https://arxiv.org/abs/2503.19058

The continuous increase in malware samples, both in sophistication and number, presents many challenges for organizations and analysts, who must cope with thousands of new heterogeneous samples daily. This requires robust methods to quickly determine whether a file is malicious. Due to its speed and efficiency, static analysis is the first line of defense.

In this work, we illustrate how the practical state-of-the-art methods used by antivirus solutions may fail to detect evident malware traces. The reason is that they highly depend on very strict signatures where minor deviations prevent them from detecting shellcodes that otherwise would immediately be flagged as malicious. Thus, our findings illustrate that malware authors may drastically decrease the detections by converting the code base to less-used programming languages. To this end, we study the features that such programming languages introduce in executables and the practical issues that arise for practitioners to detect malicious activity.

In my defense, I'd read about it on his blog, but years ago. I'd completely forgotten about it. Oh well.

I miss having a wide selection of screensavers on my Mac.

i've used https://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/ for over a decade on macos (currently on 15.3).

A while ago I stumbled across this post: https://tomstu.art/hello-declarative-world

It walks you through implementing microkanren in Ruby. You might find it easier to implement all of that in gdscript.

As an aside, since hover doesn't work with touchscreens (phones and tablets), it might be useful to have a typographic note next to the bibkey that shows/hides the popup on touch. What's a good note to use?

A reboot of Freenet.

In the early 1990s, there was ZenMOO: https://groups.google.com/g/rec.games.mud.lp/c/GAFQ8FJIm5A/m...

You connect, sit around with all the other players -- and not say anything. The high score was for staying connected and idle the longest.

Occasionally, the mud will say something. Resist the urge to reply; it'll lower your score, and if you type too often/much, you get kicked off.

Every so often, though, it'll ask you something. If you don't respond within a time limit, you get kicked off.

Blurb: WANIX takes WebAssembly to the next level. Edit, compile, and run WebAssembly from a WebAssembly UNIX-like environment entirely in the browser. Written in and using Go as a runtime, WANIX draws from Genera and Plan9 to provide a local-first operating and development environment of the future.

It's written in Go, and has a Go compiler available at runtime.
