It’s art. It’s not real, and it’s not hurting anybody in real life. We shouldn’t ban things because they make you uncomfortable, we ban them when they harm actual people.

Edit: this is in no way an endorsement of that particular fetish. I personally think it’s sick and disgusting. But it’s not my place to tell someone else not to enjoy it if nobody was harmed in its production.

It can do that just fine, because it has seen enough examples of working code. It can’t directly count correctly, sure, but it can write “i++;”, incrementing a variable by one in a loop and returning the result. The computer running the generated program is going to be doing the counting.

Yes. That’s a given. As long as it’s in the back end, there isn’t a problem. My concern is if someone out there still isn’t checking it at all. There must be some inept devs out there if SQL injection attacks on the web are still a thing. That’s the kind of thing you’d hear about way back in 2004. Hell I know to defend against it and I don’t even do web development.

I wanna meet the web dev who’s still not sanitizing inputs in 2025.

I suppose if you’re staying in a high level like JS, yeah, but if you’re sitting there defining the width of your types with stuff like uint16_t or int32_t, you probably want to be using the former system.

Open source the planet.

I agree, but no, I’m not wearing the stupid mask.

They hurt like hell for an hour when I kneel down and get up too fast 😭

Hey, Nick at Nite was a thing in the 90s. I get the reference and I’m not going to regular Bingo nights yet.

Programmers like 1024, because that’s how binary works when you keep doubling bits, and it’s cleaner and more intuitive when you’re working with low level code. Normies like 1000.

Naw. Not knowing pisses me off. I’m gonna have to deal with it again in the future, probably, so might as well set some time aside to figure out wtf is happening.

When modern CPUs execute instructions, they try to make a best guess as to what the next instruction or data it needs will be while it’s still executing the first, to speed things up so it doesn’t have to wait until the entire instruction execution cycle is complete to start retrieving the next one from memory. These exploits force it to guess wrong, potentially pulling sensitive data out of memory and making it accessible to processes which usually can’t access it.

Carries entire homelab onto plane so who’s up for a LAN party? I’m hosting.

Vulcans: everything has a logical explanation.

Quantum physics: exists

Id rather have at least something to throw into the gears of the system than nothing at all.

With a warrant. Main difference is the Chinese govt has no such roadblocks.

When it decides to follow the design pattern of some teen in their bedroom making an RPG with 10,000 nested if/else statements.

You take that back! 9/11 was last month. I’m not old.
