So that people don't just reach out for it thinking it's the standard best model I guess. Opus is still, IMHO, the best intelligence per dollar, token, and speed.

Give it 20 more years, it takes time for ecosystems to rebuild.

OpenBSD shows nothing. It’s insignificant and nobody is actively looking for flaws in it.

If it’s freed it can be reallocated, so then you have pointers to the same area of memory used for completely different data structures, and this can go very wrong

Can we kick SMB implementations out of the kernel please? If not, can we please get PHP mainlined in the kernel?

I find it incredibly naive that they’d hope it would not leak after weeks/months of embargo.

Being given advance notice of an upcoming security fix is an immense privilege, organisations should turn around quickly when given such information, they shouldn’t be given more than a couple of days to update IMHO, it’s not like the rest of the world can wait.

Any legit use case for using SSH over Tor?

In the end, it’s the same answer as to why humans do it: incentives.

Why do we commit financial fraud and destroy the planet? Because there is only one goal that counts: making more money. It’s the only measure of success for powerful people, they are powerful because of it.

The previous design was piss-poor

New comment by fguerraz in "Actively exploited sandbox RCE in all Chromium versions"

fguerraz — Sat, 05 Sep 2026 14:25:20 +0000

If it’s being exploited “in the wild”, it means someone has already found how to chain it, otherwise what would be the point?

I'm sure there are people in this category, but there's also the other category who just want their stuff to work, and now can as AI to do it, without having to follow stupid processes (try contributing to QT...) or arguing for months.

I mean, they're from Scotland, the watch would have to be pretty water resistant to survive more than one day...

The strong language is fully appropriate given the circumstances.

New comment by fguerraz in "I admire Fabrice Bellard. He is almost certainly a better overall programmer"

fguerraz — Tue, 16 Jun 2026 08:39:11 +0000

In 2006, in my first job after uni in France, I wrote a toy PaaS system called CASIMIR based on qemu. It was a lot of fun, I could via a web UI launch VMs, access them via VNC, etc..

I've always had a lot of admiration for Fabrice Bellard, I always wished I was as good an engineer as he is.

Moving to a closed development model => opensource is just a gimmick, especially with a BSD licence.

It’s a good thing because it’s definitely an interesting company worth investing into long term. But not at this valuation. 10% seems reasonable given the profits perspective.
