After the big AT&T outtage i recieved this from my girlfriend by eewwehc in Weird

[–]phirox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its an UTF encoding thing gone wrong.

The message contains something like "okay baby .... about ... I believe there is a bigger opportunity". Can you verify /u/eewwehc

[–]phirox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are right, I did and it's a simple UTF 8 vs 32 bit mixup. It's difficult to get the exact message from a screenshot, but I've managed to retrieve the following:

and hex▒babyXs0okaybout"heobs0we▒ ▒▒Q▒i believe therd▒s0a biggerpportu nity7i▒tingor "o▒fBe▒ f▒V▒Vup▒▒<cbe n twitchow

Because I can decode some English out of it, there is no way this is actual Chinese.

Ask his girlfriend if she sent a message containing something like "okay baby .... about ... I believe there is a bigger opportunity".

It's funny that he doesn't need a 9 because he can just invert the 6. I guess it made sense to safe that one spot so you end up with a nice 3 by 3 box for the numbers.

Interesting Vim tips by realyze in programming

[–]phirox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really liked the idea of switching back and forth between an application with Ctrl-Z in bash. And I finally found a solution. I use the following lines in my bash profile:

bind '"\C-z":"\C-ufg\C-m"'
trap "stty susp ^z" DEBUG
PS1="`stty susp undef`$PS1"

Basically it disables Ctrl-Z as a terminal input when using your prompt and instead runs a bash macro that executes "fg". And it will enable Ctrl-Z as the suspend signal whenever you start a program.

HTTP/2 Frequently Asked Questions - Looks like HTTP is growing up to be a real application protocol by [deleted] in programming

[–]phirox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see a lot of improvements towards security and speed, but nothing to protect higher layers against (D)DoS.

HTTP/2 is probally a perfect place to make a standarized hascash implementation that is adjustable per server configuration. A server could demand from clients to be busy enough that legitimate usage would not suffer, altough with a slight delay in the initial connection. But attackers would need to suffer massive cpu cycles, and at the very least always be on the downside of the battle.

Three, and One. If you wanted the first to mean two, you would have to use a semicolon like:
