Unless your Terms of use update email looks and reads the same as the one I got yesterday from mastodon.social, I don't wanna know about it, nor do I agree to it.
FFS! Can't I just get results, accurate no BS results? No erroneous/misleading AI-Slop of a summary I've never asked for ? I get it, there is plenty of people who _LOooove_ (if not _worship_) that shit, Good for them! But at least make it opt-in or add in some kind of "Do Not Slop" browser option _(as if the "Do Not Track" one made a difference, but I digress)_. Shit's only going down-hill from here, I might as well as just spin up my own Searx instance and call it a day.
@prologic I’m trying to call some libc functions (because the Rust stdlib does not have an equivalent for getpeername(), for example, so I don’t have a choice), so I have to do some FFI stuff and deal with raw pointers and all that, which is very gnarly in Rust – because you’re not supposed to do this. Things like that are trivial in C or even Assembler, but I have not yet understood what Rust does under the hood. How and when does it allocate or free memory … is the pointer that I get even still valid by the time I do the libc call? Stuff like that.
I hope that I eventually learn this over time … but I get slapped in the face at every step. It’s very frustrating and I’m always this 🤏 close to giving up (only to try again a year later).
Oh, yeah, yeah, I guess I could “just” use some 3rd party library for this. socket2 gets mentioned a lot in this context. But I don’t want to. I literally need *one* getpeername() call during the lifetime of my program, I don’t even do the socket(), bind(), listen(), accept() dance, I already have a fully functional file descriptor. Using a library for that is total overkill and I’d rather do it myself. (And look at the version number: 0.5.10. The library is 6 years old but they’re still saying: “Nah, we’re not 1.0 yet, we reserve the right to make breaking changes with every new release.” So many Rust libs are still unstable …)
I'm literally sitting in a corner *chuckles*. I rarely get any emails nowadays. But if I do and it is not plain-text, then my Mutt gets to bark at it and I, just... won't read it. 🤷🏽♂️
C'est la dernière semaine de cours qui commence, l'occasion de jouer avec des glaçons. Le principe? Il faut sauver son glaçon ou éliminer les glaçons adverses. Du souffle du dragon à la pluie de sel avec un plateau qui change à chaque partie, on s'amuse bien en classe. vous pouvez tester à la maison : https://si3t.ch/glagla

Me: I had a 7-day working sprint I should relax today before I teach a class in the evening...
My brain: Good, as you don't feel any obligation to work on your PhD today, you should just open the PhD working file and start working on it, no pressure. it will feel nice, I promise!
Not only are they super useful (the program itself can drop privileges – like, it can initialize itself, read some files, whatever, and then tell the kernel that it will never do anything like that again; if it does, e.g. by being exploited through a bug, it gets killed by the kernel), but they are also extremely easy to use.
Imagine a server program with a connected socket in file descriptor 0. Before reading any data from the client, the program can do this:
Done. It’s now limited to reading files from that directory, communicating with the existing socket, stuff like that. But it cannot ever read any other files or exec() into something else.
I can’t wait for the day when we have something like this on Linux. There have been some attempts, but it’s not that easy. And it’s certainly not mainstream, yet.
I need to have a closer look at Linux’s Landlock soon (“soon”), but this is considerably more complicated than pledge()/unveil():
As feiras medievais são "reconstruções históricas" do que nunca existiu - e ainda assim espalham-se pelo país como momentos de convívio e folia. Em Lamego tem a particular característica de ser promovida como contendo uma recriação histórica das #cortes de Lamego*, ainda que estas nunca tenham existido.
Mas para mim a feira #medieval de #Lamego é aquela altura do ano em que vou até à praça e bebo #hidromel. E quem diz que essa não é uma boa tradição a manter e celebrar? ;-)
