  • Or in some cases might crash 8.5 million computers worldwide.

    Yes the Crowdstrike crash was caused by going 1 past an array length, caused by a magic number index and a regex mistake, and wasn’t caught because the tests didn’t work.

    The whole thing was a compound series of amateur mistakes, but with kernel access at boot time.







  • Everyday I would wake up with severely sore arms, like they were clenched somehow.

    Blood test said Vitamin D deficiency, but the supplements didn’t do anything noticeable. But I was on the border of anemia so they told me to try iron supplements too.

    Gone overnight. I’m so used to problems being an exhausting road to recovery that this one took me by surprise.




  • May be unpopular opinion but I think this strategy they’re going for of appealing to Republicans may work to get real change.

    In the past we’d offer an olive branch and the republicans would burn the tree down. However if they can effectively split the GOP into republican vs MAGA, maybe the republicans will be less evil or ignorant towards legislation. Enemy of my enemy is my friend.

    If they can jack knife the republican party, maybe it’ll move the whole left/right system away from the extreme right and let us stop pretending the alt-right cult deserves any official respect or recognition.

    I’m not advocating for letting the right do whatever they want or drag us down. More like I wanna coax them towards the most basic of basic of decency so we don’t get literal threats to democracy anymore.

    Honestly physicists don’t actually know what measuring is either. We don’t know when exactly the system is considered “measured” in the chain of entanglement, this is called the Measurement Problem.

    Answers range from “shut up don’t think about it” to “there’s an infinite amount of universes split from each other for each quantum event!”.
