nenreme··on North Korea Hackers Step Up Bitcoin Attacks
That's also how their border guard works.
nenreme··on Dyslexia
This sounds like scintillating scotoma: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scintillating_scotoma
nenreme··on Hypercomputation: Computing more than the Turing machine (2002)
From the first paper that you linked (available freely on sci-hub) it looks like they were unable to proove that their method actually works. They made simulations with small problems but are not sure if this method will work for larger problems.
nenreme··on The BitTorrent Protocol Specification v2
You download 32 bytes hash and check it using 20 byte hash from the magnet link.
nenreme··on Krita Foundation: Update
> They were booted out of Russia

What do you mean by that? I'm in Russia and using PIA with no issues.

nenreme··on How Artificial Intelligence is Outpacing Humans
Why are you posting not publicly accesible links? Am I now supposed to register at linkedin to read news here?
nenreme··on Bitcoin – Potential Network Disruption on July 31st
They didn't. You did.
nenreme··on Bitcoin – Potential Network Disruption on July 31st
> Can you imagine the uproar if Visa said the same thing? It would be totally unthinkable.

No, that's exactly what Visa says, they call it chargeback. That's why it is hard to buy bitcoins with bank cards.

nenreme··on Ubuntu now available from the Windows store
I always configure git and all editors on Windows to use LF line endings. It is so annoying that so many applications use CRLF endings by default, I never understood reason for that, I'm always using LF and have no issues.
nenreme··on Undefined Behavior in 2017
D is memory unsafe by default so it probably has a lot of them.
nenreme··on Petya: “I Want to Believe”
> there’s evidence that development on the network propagation component was completed in February.

Yet no evidence is provided. Why would they want to hide it?

nenreme··on D Language accepted for inclusion in GCC
They are very different languages. Rust was designed to be GC-free and memory safe. D, on the other hand, has GC and is memory unsafe by default.
nenreme··on Garry Kasparov: Why the world should embrace AI [video]
Obviously he was not the first. Not even close.
nenreme··on Faster Command Line Tools in D
> So do Java, C#, Python, Ruby, PHP, Javascript, and virtually everything else and they are very heavily used.

That's the point. There are already many popular languages with GC. Why would people switch from C++ (this was the original question) to D instead of one of those much more popular languages that you mentioned?

nenreme··on CRISPR eliminates HIV-1 infection in live animals
Everything is on sci-hub anyway.
nenreme··on True Colour support in various terminals
No problem :)
nenreme··on True Colour support in various terminals
citrusui originally asked about DCI-P3 color space, ygra then confused this wider color space with higher bit-depth. Now you want to further confuse everyone by referring to your comment about advantages of 24-bit RGB over paletted colors which is completely irrelevant to the original comment about DCI-P3 color space. DCI-P3 contains colors which are outside of the gamut representable by the 24-bit RGB (which uses sRGB color space).
nenreme··on True Colour support in various terminals
What you are talking about is bit-depth which is not related to color spaces (although for wider color spaces you need higher bit-depth to avoid banding).
nenreme··on True Colour support in various terminals
Why P3? It is better to go directly to Rec. 2100 with HDR which is more future-proof.
nenreme··on What makes WebAssembly fast?
No, it's like a virtual proccess but with simpler memory layout. If you try to read or write memory outside of the allowed range it will trap (which is like segmentation fault on Linux) but it doesn't check any individual array for out of bound access because it doesn't actually know where are arrays in the memory.
nenreme··on SpaceX to Send Privately Crewed Dragon Spacecraft Beyond the Moon Next Year
Australia definitely has the ability to prevent Russia from setting up bases in Antarctica. It more like that they don't intend to do that because all their claims of sovereignty over Antarctica is a joke.
nenreme··on Google and Bing to deprecate piracy websites
> They're not censoring content that you are able to access legitimately.

I think you meant "They're not censoring content that you aren't able to access legitimately".

This is bullshit. There are a lot of things you can't buy (especially in smaller countries) but which are available on pirate sites. Heck, you can't even watch Netflix own shows in some countries using Netflix because Netflix geoblocked them.

nenreme··on Uber launches 'urgent investigation' into sexual harassment claims
Uber is losing money at astonishing rates.
nenreme··on Using Rust for 'Scripting'
> such as the way Windows permits slightly invalid Unicode

Windows allows invalid UTF-16 while Unixes allow invalid UTF-8.

nenreme··on New P2 Instance Type for Amazon EC2 – Up to 16 GPUs
Decoding is good but hw encoding usually has very bad quality/size ratio compared to best software encoders.
nenreme··on Pirates Plunder 4K Hateful Eight, but Did They Crack DCP?
People say that HDFury splitter can remove HDCP 2.2.
nenreme··on Indian ISPs Speed Up BitTorrent by ‘Peering’ with a Torrent Site
Some ISPs in Russia were doing the same (I don't know if they still do). The idea is that *.torrent files contain retracker.local in the list of trackers, this tracker is local to each ISP and will respond with local peers.
nenreme··on What’s New in C# 7.0
Maybe not exactly what you want but it is a "% of developers who are developing with the language or tech and have expressed interest in continuing to develop with it".

nenreme··on Ask HN: Rust or Swift for system programming?
Garbage collector frees objects when there are no more references to them. It thus does automatic memory management.

Borrow checker on the other hand doesn't alter lifetimes of objects, instead it doesn't allow you to keep references to things that were destroyed. I.e. it doesn't manage memory.

nenreme··on Happy Tau Day
But pi links to diameter, not radius.
