Computersicherheit: KI findet tief versteckte Software-Schwachstellen
Das neue KI-Modell von Anthropic erweist sich als Hackerschreck. Die Software fand unter anderem eine alte Sicherheitslücke in einem viel genutzten Betriebssystem. Ihr Talent macht sie aber auch gefährlich.

There's roughly two ways I've acquired skills in programming languages in the past: the "hard" way for writing code (e.g., "Learn Python the Hard Way"), and the "easy" way for learning to read a new programming language by skimming the language specs or leafing through a book on the topic (e.g., "The Supercollider Book").
I suppose there's a third way now for me: Reading up on software architecture design (e.g., stuff like "500 lines or less"), so that co-creation skills with large language models are improved?
For example, Yoav Rubin's article on "An Archaeology-Inspired Database" in 500 lines or less really made me think about Clojure in a new way.
Thoughts on this?

Replacing Protobuf with Rust to go 5 times faster

I think it might be fundamentally important to note that #scale is not what hyperscalers and longtermists say it is. Software is great at scale. Practitioners who work closely with software are pretty good at it too. Business plans and people who assume scale means “this thing I think I know, only bigger” are *terrible* at it.

Building a FOSS live streaming camera
I have used a lot of cameras but never made one myself. Specifically one optimized for live streaming so it just outputs the camera feed over HDMI.

Two days ago, I had eight (out of one hundred and forty) unit tests failing, and I wasn't happy with my code. Last night, I had forty failing, and I thought things were improving. This morning I have one hundred and twenty four failing, so I *know* I'm on the right path!

So, why *should* GNOME support server side decorations?
Cet article est aussi disponible en français. This article contains quite a few technical terms, which I will explain these in the following paragraphs, those that are already familiar with these terms may skip to the next section. A basic understanding of linux and it’s desktop environments is assumed. Server side decorations (SSD) is the term for when when the application’s titlebar is drawn by the system and client side decorations (CSD) is the term for when the applications draws it’…

Just noticed one of my favorite pieces of software ever had a big update after more than 5 years: the #Rockbox media player software! #iPod color, of course, but later on an old #Android phone, a #FiiO M3K and today on a #Surfans F20! Honestly it just can't be beat, software wise, for a media player. 🧵1/2

Is Apple going Adobe?
Say it isn't so!
Update:
It looks like they have gone to subscription model to access the “Pro” apps (FCP, Motion, Logic, Mainstage, Compressor, Pixelmator)
But the original “iWork" apps are still free. Pages, Keynote, Numbers (and by extension iMovie though it is not included in the "Creator Studio” presumably because it ships with every Mac)
That said... and yes... this is how they get you… the annual subscription for everything is "only” $180/yr or $18/mo plus Family Sharing privleges.
That goes down to $40/yr and $4/mo if you do the Educational license, but no family provisions.
