Technology@lemmy.world•Epstein details scrubbed from Mandelson’s Wikipedia page by shady paid editor— As the then-ambassador came under fire, an anonymous user tried to downplay his history of support for Jeffrey EpsteinEnglish
4·26 days agoWikipedia isn’t important because of its data. Rather because of the fact it is continuously updated, extended, and fixed at a gigantic scale.
If Wikipedia ever dies, its information will lose relevance by the day. After a decade or two without a similar-scale replacement, will anyone even care?
I’d purchase one if it 100% reliably cleaned both me and itself after use, without any (further) user interaction.

Technology@lemmy.world•Neocities deindexed from BingEnglish
28·1 month agoBing/DDG has also blocked the emulation wiki (https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/) for some reason. I noticed when I forgot the domain and tried looking for the site.
For the record, Google returns it as the top result.

131·2 months agoReason #186729 why it’s insane to have no right to privacy in public.
Fun fact: Recording the public is illegal in Germany. Any private video camera must only be able to record your own property. If you do record (and store - smart doorbells without storage that are only active when they are rung are exempted) material you must have visible warnings (that others can see BEFORE being recorded) or else any evidence you collect is likely to be thrown out in court.

1·2 months agoOnly thing I can recommend (as well as for literally any script) is using set -u. Only because it’s awful to debug unset variables and there’s never a use case for using unset variables.

Cars just do that sometimes.
Unless you learned German in Austria-Hungary between 1879 and 1901 of course.

42·3 months agoCould it make testing less conclusive? Part of testing is to see whether people actually enjoy the game. And I’d conjecture immersion-breaking placeholder assets could lead to worse testing reviews.

11·3 months agoThe opposite, you have a right to privacy even after being sentenced. Such a registry sounds like it would drastically increase recidivism rates by making you unemployable and unable to form a social life.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•More code = more better
1·3 months agoEven though this isn’t C, but if we take from the C11 draft §6.8.5 point 6 (https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1570.pdf):
An iteration statement whose controlling expression is not a constant expression, that performs no input/output operations, does not access volatile objects, and performs no synchronization or atomic operations in its body, controlling expression, or (in the case of a for statement) its expression-3, may be assumed by the implementation to terminate
“new Random().nextInt()” might perform I/O though so it could still be defined behavior. Or the compiler does not assume this assumption.
But an aggressive compiler could realize the loop would not terminate if x does not become 10 so x must be 10 because the loop can be assumed to terminate.

1·3 months agoInfinite loops are often weird though. They could be seen as undefined behavior and the compiler may do whatever it feels like.

Occasionally Imgur is blocked but you can just switch the VPN to a less populous country and it will not be blocked. Still annoying though.

Technology@lemmy.world•Israel’s IDF Bans Android Phones—iPhones Now ‘Mandatory’English
9·3 months agoMostly because Apple’s update policy is superior to A LOT of Android companies. OEMs are really slow when patching known vulnerabilities.
Quick study I found when trying to find evidence:
Example from that study:
Compared to the top three OEMs we examined so far, Google is the one with the most stable support behavior. All of the Pixel devices receive monthly security updates without any delay or missed SPLs [Security Patch Levels]
It’s utterly insane this is noteworthy. Not delaying security updates for KNOWN vulnerabilities should not be exemplary.

9·3 months agoYeah, I don’t mind it too much. Especially because tax evasion is a far bigger harm to social welfare systems.
As long as he actually needed that money and wasn’t some already well-off fucker that wanted to hoard even more money that is.
To be fair, school lunches aren’t free in Germany.
Technically they could be considered free if you factor in monthly child benefits (currently at 259€ per child) or parents further qualify for social assistance.
