> Although the current cloak represents a major advance, the researchers want to develop more sophisticated versions capable of performing additional functions. One particularly important goal is to conceal objects that produce heat themselves

I read the entire thing thinking it could cloak a soldier

But also

4. Every single fucked up thing it did was indeed listed in their customer agreement and privacy policy

If it's in the CISA known exploited vulnerabilities catalog, tell me if I'm wrong but I assume people don't go around exploiting million dollar 0-days in public just to fuck around safely in a chrome sandbox.

So maybe we're going to see another CVE for the sandbox escape soon?

This guy's been charged with obstruction not destroying evidence so they could still charge you with obstruction for failing to give a password that opens the phone up.

The link doesn't work (it only serves a redirect to hearsnetworks.com/) if you are outside the united states

The impossibility of drawing a line! So difficult! So nebulous! I will work for a concentration camp

Lol but Hackernews is the epitome of a forum filled with incredible pedants if anything so it's shocking hearing that. I would say it's the exact same thing over there, maybe with a little less decorum? Are you sure it's not more of an issue you're having with their politics? Because yes, similar to the Mastodon people, it's queer friendly, it's anti-AI, it has a lot of discussions about ethics, ... But as for the rest, yeah, no. Hackernews clone.

He's not joking, he's tacitly asking for peace of mind from his peers :)

Opera also claims they are committed to support manifest V2 forever.

Sorry what do you even mean?

> Java and Kotlin as regular Android app already provide all the juice required to do the job.

To do what job? What job can Java and Kotlin do on a phone to replace a Hetzner VPS?

Creatine is very uncontroversial and the scientific consensus is that it's an all around good thing, so I wouldn't be surprised

I swear I'm not trying to be inflamatory, but this is the _worst_ programming language feature I could ever imagine. I'm not trying to be hyperbolic, if I try to reason about it there is nothing I can come up with that I would dislike more in the realm of recent features that have been pitched in the PL community

I was already in the camp that try/catch is "considered harmful", I dislike the concept of having a second, hidden, control flow that might get sprung up upon function callers, because it has side effects buried in the implementation of a callee that are not defined in the parameters or the returns, and I am not 100% sold on the benefits of "Things in the middle don’t need to concern themselves with error handling.", which I guess informs this opinion.

Now since I hate that, I really, really would hate that on top of this, another programmer could write a hidden control flow upstairs that could, potentially, not just crash my code, but also do a lot of other things, such as coming up with default values for unexpected NULLs or whatever, which could THEN take something that would have crashed immediately, and turn it into something that crashes later down the line, away from the problem, with a varialble set to an inexplicable value that I have never put there myself

What a nightmare to debug! I mean, come on
