Thus, you may have an array of some number of elements that I want to perist. However, I don&#39;t know anything about the contents of those elements, because the functions that compute them haven&#39;t even been executed yet.<br/><br/>This means that even if I wanted to, there is no way to find out how many bytes the serialised form of this array is.<br/><br/>Currently, I serialise the data into a buffer, and then send that buffer to Valkey in a single SET call.<br/><br/>This is jot ideal, because if I could write the data directly to Valkey, there would be zero copying involved. Also, there would be no need to hold on to an array in menory that could get pretty large.<br/><br/>I have not found a way to do this in Valkey, since wire protocol requires a size prefix that tells Valkey how many bytes it need to read.<br/><br/>And even if this existed, I&#39;d need one more feature. Since in my ideal solution, the write to Valkey starts before the code that generates this data has even finished evaluating, so there also needs to be a way to abort the Valkey write if the evaluation yields an error.<br/><br/>Although the last one can probably be solved using transactions. 2025-08-22T02:00:49Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqswjwukyukq3l4l0kk0maxcwc6sjlytczp0s4czmhc0yxjg6tzwzsczyqzldnna7sl49f7yuh95659fj0s6rga5hrx76jkhxk7flauw6amnkwsu7gz In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsztxg36hulwrf0mw00hzsqlwcgulwym069f00zauwrwnlsmn8rzmgc2rezu'>nevent1q…rezu</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>It&#39;s an array-based language that is based on APL: <a href="https://kapdemo.dhsdevelopments.com/">https://kapdemo.dhsdevelopments.com/</a><br/><br/>It&#39;s quite niche, and while it would be neat to add it, I&#39;m not sure it&#39;s popular enough. 🙂<br/><br/>I&#39;m working on making Valkey the backend for general data persistence in the language, but I&#39;ve just started with it.<br/><br/>Speaking of, what is the correct place to talk about (and suggest improvements to) the wire protocol?

I think good pentesters know how to handle this, and will take this into considering when finalising the report with the customer.<br/><br/>The problem is that there are some bad incentives around bounties though. There is a financial interest in the pentester to get the severity as high as possible. And even if they don&#39;t get a monetary award, the testers reputation will improve if they can show they&#39;ve found a lot of severe vulnerabilities.<br/><br/>Good testers working for serious customers don&#39;t have this problem, because then the incentive is to provide a useful and actionable report to a customer, and in my experience those reports tend to be useful.<br/><br/>But there is also the problem that the CVSS scoring system doesn&#39;t take this into consideration, so when a formal scoring is done, the fact that the there is an assumption that the system is misconfigured isn&#39;t reflected in the final score, at least not to the degree it should. 2025-08-18T07:23:44Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsps9z4pmemvu2dsv20urxd0czxkqwmmtt4cx05a6w837jmvz8rfgqzyqzldnna7sl49f7yuh95659fj0s6rga5hrx76jkhxk7flauw6amnkct3t4j In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqrcrpr73qrynepa8ac6ew8ltqfnpcn8052nydeh09p3czav4vd5qehq4j8'>nevent1q…q4j8</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Suppose one wanted to honour such reports, what on earth is the curl library supposed to do to prevent this?<br/><br/>I can&#39;t even think of a theoretical way to do that, and I don&#39;t think the reporter did so either.

Here&#39;s the code to do this: [example](<a href="https://kapdemo.dhsdevelopments.com/clientweb2/#c=Ky9bMV0g4oqDICg2NOKNtDEgMCAwIDApIOKKhiDiioMgKOKNszUpIOKMvcKoIOKKgiAoNjTijbQyKSDiiqQgMHhhZjlkMDNjNmJlMjE1NzQ4">https://kapdemo.dhsdevelopments.com/clientweb2/#c=Ky9bMV0g4oqDICg2NOKNtDEgMCAwIDApIOKKhiDiioMgKOKNszUpIOKMvcKoIOKKgiAoNjTijbQyKSDiiqQgMHhhZjlkMDNjNmJlMjE1NzQ4</a> )<br/><br/>The output is as follows:&lt;code&gt; +/[1] ⊃ (64⍴1 0 0 0) ⊆ ⊃ (⍳5) ⌽¨ ⊂ (64⍴2) ⊤ 0xaf9d03c6be215748&lt;br&gt;┌→──────┐&lt;br&gt;↓8 8 8 8│&lt;br&gt;│8 8 8 8│&lt;br&gt;│8 8 8 8│&lt;br&gt;│8 8 8 8│&lt;br&gt;│8 8 8 8│&lt;br&gt;└───────┘&lt;br&gt;&lt;/code&gt;<br/><br/>If you change the value to a number which doesn&#39;t have the symmetry mentioned in the post, the array will not be all the same number.<br/><br/>#maths #kap #apl 2025-05-11T13:49:10Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs0sp5szwwvypgrms9nlhxanqjxncjnjf8lzhsnegn0z3sgf3e49pgzyqzldnna7sl49f7yuh95659fj0s6rga5hrx76jkhxk7flauw6amnk7uhgpl What does enshittification look like? Well, most of you know what it looks like, but here&#39;s another example.<br/><br/>Today I was biking in an area I had never been to before, going on a bike route that takes the route of an old railroad line.<br/><br/>I needed to go back where I came from, so I asked google maps for a bike route back. It recommended a 43 minute route that began with going in the opposite direction, and then snaked its way via small side roads to where I needed to go. The bike road I was on wasn&#39;t even properly marked.<br/><br/>I then when to OsmAnd (openstreetmap for android) and it gave me a 30 minute route that started by turning back on the same road I was, back for about 10 minutes and then pretty much straight back.<br/><br/>I think I know why this is. Google Maps no longer exists to make navigation easier. For users, it&#39;s become little more than a vehicle to provide connections to businesses. Taking it a bit more abstractly: Its real goal it&#39;s all about location-based advertising, and bikers don&#39;t make them any money. 2025-04-20T15:00:52Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsqrz0sn0m36utshtm8050quauxtgfh7pwr0u52449q04e9yra7n5czyqzldnna7sl49f7yuh95659fj0s6rga5hrx76jkhxk7flauw6amnkvlppah In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0sqadw9dplyzuuy20hx4nr5r8xxnkerdnyxtpgd6yt6kdtv4cl7q2ard2n'>nevent1q…rd2n</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>it&#39;s X68000, isn&#39;t it? 2025-04-13T04:45:03Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs2ny6egm22hgqm8ras68hhnudwqyzxzl7wc360us95kjxqa87kyqgzyqzldnna7sl49f7yuh95659fj0s6rga5hrx76jkhxk7flauw6amnkm276v7 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsryeju3swf0gm5wldwux3w4r7cq5st8f9ew80s2kcf235zrzyuhag8czc06'>nevent1q…zc06</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>How are those cars even allowed?

Information is easy to get hold of (in fact, it&#39;s being pushed to you) but assessing its accuracy is becoming harder and harder, even for someone who is actively trying to research a subject.<br/><br/>The problem is that people still think research is about finding information, leading them to think they&#39;ve done &#39;research&#39; when they followed a series of youtube links. 2025-03-22T07:56:03Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsfdhr6wmqgp3ydldvdcczjrkj902c7nhlzcq2fs93ulf30w5gc2eczyqzldnna7sl49f7yuh95659fj0s6rga5hrx76jkhxk7flauw6amnkh7k5yg In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsgxya9y2cehypqx78pr0q4gpvnv37q0jkf0gjzppfgg4qf92m82xg8hrck7'>nevent1q…rck7</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>also, I think for a lot of people the time wasted due to errors are offloaded to others.

You most certainly can use the markets as a place to gamble. Just like you can use anything that changes with some degree of unpredictability to gamble. Some people bet on football games, and that&#39;s also gambling.<br/><br/>The real difference is that the stock market derives (or, I should say, should derive) its value from actual work done by the trade companies. Now of course, for this statement to be entirely true, the P/E values of the different companies would need to be 1, which it obviously isn&#39;t.<br/><br/>When you invest in a company with a P/E higher than 1, you definitely are gambling that it will live up to this expectation in the future (or, you are just trying to take advantage of other&#39;s gambles).<br/><br/>So yes, it&#39;s a betting platform, but grounded in actual value, similar to most markets actually.<br/><br/>If you want a market that has absolutely zero underlying value and is a pure a gambling platform as you could hope for, then you can buy some bitcoins. It&#39;s a market where trading happens for trading&#39;s same amd nothing with actual value is being exchanged. 2024-12-18T04:51:57Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsrnlsntupw4zkq7szqqhzdwnl35p25fps4qgl8z2h2qtk649uyrzgzyqzldnna7sl49f7yuh95659fj0s6rga5hrx76jkhxk7flauw6amnk4d8qaf In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsvtd2pkwer4jfp0895xxa4vtzseaa83nm4v76lpjg74j3rlnkn23gly2yzf'>nevent1q…2yzf</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>This is a lesson for anyone who thinks they can &#34;beat&#34; the market.<br/><br/>I&#39;ve &#34;beaten&#34; the market several times. Does that make me into a financial expert? No, it makes me completely average, because over a few decades you are bound to be lucky sometimes. Of course I&#39;m not mentioning all those times when I was thoroughly bashed into the ground by the market.<br/><br/>Pretty much everything you can think of regarding market movements is bound to be true at some point. If I say &#34;there will be a recession&#34;, that will be true. If I say: &#34;the stock market will be worth more than it is today&#34;, that will be true as well, even if I say it on the eve of a new market crash.<br/><br/>I think the worst thing that can happen to you as an investor is to have a huge lucky win, like your acquaintance. It&#39;s going to be incredibly hard to tell yourself that you are not some all-knowing investment oracle, and you&#39;ll fail to capitalise on your luck.<br/><br/>Or, you can take advantage of the fact that *others* are also going to believe you&#39;re an all-knowing investment oracle, and you can make a living writing investment books and doing keynotes at confierences.<br/><br/>Just make sure you get yourself a clever nickname, that&#39;ll get you onto Squawkbox in no time. 2024-12-17T14:12:53Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs8jxpmy3z69vfczgnm9qvs3wxyramtyvpjalw0v96vng4enh4gpqszyqzldnna7sl49f7yuh95659fj0s6rga5hrx76jkhxk7flauw6amnk0rx86y In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsy8448sm0uhgw2snm79737pw72e6uzz0ps4snrdy0fchpynh2zcdgkg28pa'>nevent1q…28pa</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>as someone who also moved countries, I&#39;d also like to add that the process is very different in different countries.
