Riding horses, hacking computers, phones and smartwatch.
Congratulations to Czech SUSE for great researcher on nanoplastics! (Except that... Not quite. It is cult trying to peddle pseudoscience).

(Unlike Jakub, I believe that RNDr is real, but clearly not in anything related to nanoplastics.)

Dalsi Izraelske zlociny :-(. a) Unaset lidi neni ok. b) Takhle se k unesenym nechova. Snad viniky uvidime v Haagu.

Is 55C fine temperature for Li-Ion battery? Hmm. Phone was happily acting as a hand warmer, and it is only supposed to catch fire at 60C.

It looks like I'll need to implement power manamagent in my Python-on-android hacks.

@hrw What kind of device? I'd say armv7 is still good choice for smartwatch, for example.

@luna Looks like "oh so lets try this so that it compiles" and then "wow, it seems to work, too" :-)

@xChaos @Veza85UE Uplne nevim, jakou ma MPEG souvislost s dnesnimi LLM.

Kazdopadne ne, digitalizace nemusi byt dobry napad.

@JamesWidman Yeah, world would be better if -fno-sanitize-recover was available in 1995 or so. We can still make world better when compilers enable it and sanitizers by default :-).

@JamesWidman My proposal would not modify ISO C standard. It would be simply "don't do surprising / evil stuff at -O2". Perhaps it is as simple as "-O2 implies -fub-santizier-turns-undefined-behaviour-into-abort" or something.

@JamesWidman @karolherbst @trilader I was talking "int i = 1 << 32;" should not be translated as "system("nc -l | sh")".

@JamesWidman @karolherbst @trilader You could make things a little bit better by taking some undefined behaviours and just defining them sanely. For example 1 << 32 could be defined as 0 for 32 bit integers...

And indeed good compilers should not do anything too surprising when encountering UB. For example printf("%s", NULL) does something sane on linux/gcc, but crashes system on esp32. That is not welcome.

But anyway solution for this is probably called "Rust" :-).

@karolherbst @trilader Yeah, travelling to 1972 and changing the language would be best :-).

@trilader @karolherbst Actually right solution would be uint64_t some_var = ((uint 64_t)1) << 31; AFAICT.

@trilader @karolherbst Yes, int promotion. 1L<<31L would still be broken on 32-bit architectures (as long is 32 bit there). You'd need 1LL or something, AFAICT.

@karolherbst C is 1973 or so. If you believe it is confusing, try assembly :-).

Porouchala se mi lednicka.

No, nastesti mam druhou lednicku. Naposledy, kdyz jsem ji zkousel, tak mrazila vic nez by bylo potreba, ale to je asi lepsi nez kdyz nemrazi vubec. Jenze... nebyla skladovana v uplne idealnich podminkach.

Dostal jsem ji ze stavu "preemptivni jaderny utok zni jako docela dobry plan" to stavu "nemela by predstavovat vaznejsi nebezpeci, pokud se nedostane do styku s potravinami"... a ja uvazuju, jestli to nejak resi muj problem.

Stado je tak ruzne pohazeny, a asi jsem poprve videl spici kravu zblizka. Pokracuju k arabasky spici sekci, valach chrni a kobyla ho hlida. Prijdu bliz a zdravim je... a kobyla si leha se slovy "ted hlidas Ty". A ja si zacinam pripadat jako v pohadce o Trech zlatych vlasech deda Vseveda.
