If there were only a way to pin external deps loaded from html by sha…

With the eMudhra situation we saw e.g. Go doing an emergency release that blacklists the certs, while they aren’t shipped with Go, as a protection of dependencies that haven’t caught up.

In this situation, wouldn’t the more responsible behaviour of gitlab be to blacklist Ruby runtimes that enable the CVE?

Guess what, there are answers to that question! October 14, 2026 was the date the domain got registered.

I think you’re right. And since the intermediate certs expire around 2039 and the private keys are known, we have plenty of smooth MitM fun against IoT in front of us.

I think that the Go project is lucky to have you. Thank you for what you do!

There are no certs baked into Go’s stdlib. This is about pkg x509 blacklisting certain certs that get loaded from elsewhere.

In absence of sources, the latter sounds like government cover-up bs to me.

I don’t know what it is with Julia’s writing but it always makes me happy. It reminded me of replacing the soldered battery in Super Metroid so I could save my progress again. As a cheapskate I used a regular battery and connected the wires mechanically.

From the readme

> A Jev-like model takes a piece of text and a list of N text options. It returns one probability for each option. It does this in one pass instead of writing an answer word by word.

I’ve read TypeSafe’s announcement, watched the home assistant demo, and still had no idea what it was. If instead those three sentences were in the announcement…

The orb is free yet comes at a cost. When I wrote the equivalent of the orb 25 years ago I had to go through the book “Real-Time Rendering” by Tomas Akenine-Möller and Eric Haines, the first edition with the chameleon. I remember the smell of the book. I learned that 3D projection was not mostly trigonometry (as I believed) but instead “just” multiplications and an occasional division, mind blown! I learned while skimming through the various chapters in the book how little I knew and how much there was to explore, creating a sense of excitement and craving to understand and implement algorithms from shadow volumes to spherical harmonics, and acquire first all the mathematical prerequisites. And I had the rewarding feeling of accomplishment when my orb was rendering.

Now all of that is gone, if you choose so, and what’s left is brainrot and the equivalent of doom scrolling.

Nice, I stand corrected. A “special municipality”, TIL!
