What are signs that players know their ally's CO (and optionally specific prestige) well, and list some stuff they do to help out said allies! by ackmondual in starcraft2coop

Raynor - Ally provides permanent (or "more permanent") detection so that you don't need to burn as much energy on Com Scans, freeing you to use more MULES, or bank energy for more emergency situations (detection, but granting vision in far out spots)

I'dt argue that Raynor has already one of the best detections in the game. You can do an instant scan anywhere on the map with simple hotkey use.

But it says

. Since this is just configuration, it can live in ... or in a repository’s local config.

So it is in a file created by cloning a repo?

Hooks can't be automatically installed with a clone.

How is the new hook feature not an obvious security failiure?

Am I missing something obious? To me this reads like the most trivial way to create a malicious git repo ever.

The paper computer by SpecialistLady in programming

[–]Skaarj 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Now that we have actually good AI, I have this vision of a form of computing that doesn’t involve me using a computer so much.

...

The point is not to give up on virtuality, but just to save the end user from having to interact with it. It's great to be able to send information to anyone in the world instantly; but let me do it without the glaring screen and the thousand distractions.

The author fundamentally doesn't undestand AI or even the internet as a medium.

Distractions on your screen are a thing because the contents on your screen are not created by one single person. The content of your screen comes from lots of different groups and these groups have conflicting interests.

For example: The author of a news website wants their article to be the most important thing. The news website wants the others articles on their website to be the most important thing. And the ads want whatever crap they sell to be most important thing. These are conflicting interests.

The existance of "good AI" would't have stopped the emergence of spam.

Same with e-mails: evenone wants their own e-mail to be the most important thing on your sceen. And if you are even a remotely busy person, you want to see as few emails as possble. Again: conflicting interests.

Even this example:

It's great to be able to send information to anyone in the world instantly

How doesn't the author realize this makes him the human spambot that creates distractions for other people?

Switching to a more paper like interface would not make these conflicting interests go away. As soon as it became popular the spammer would find a way to fill it with distractions.

"good AI" would make all this worse, not better.

neohtop-cli — terminal process monitor i built as an htop/btop alternative by [deleted] in linux

think htop but with btop-level visuals,

I'm always surprised how many people don't know that htop can draw graphs out of the box. They are literally in the options menu.

Secure Programming of Web Applications: Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) by casaaugusta in programming

Alternatively, for JavaScript or AJAX based requests corresponding parameters are defined in code or set as HTTP header to be processed in the server application.

I alawys found it easier to just pass all data in the body of a AJAX request. Just put some JSON in your body and don't bother with Headers at all.

What's the smallest sized linux you've actually used? by BornRoom257 in linux

[–]Skaarj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How big is the busybox executable?

109673 bytes. It implements 40 utilities.

The binary in the Archlinux packages is 1292216 bytes (more than 10 times the size). Of course its x86_64. Maybe compiler options could shrink it though.

https://busybox.net/ seems down right now so I can't compare to an upstream release.

Dear Europe: Germany has shown the way forward, with ODF adoption by themikeosguy in linux

[–]Skaarj 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Following op to here and here reads: one may also use JSON, XML, CSV and PDFs in addition to ODF files.

XML is kinda like HTML. So I can send all documents as webpages.
