Dumble··on Defibrillation devices save lives using 1k times less electricity
I think by "successful" the instructor meant actually restarting the heart and reviving the patient, which is very unlikely. Keeping blood moving und preventing/delaying neurological damage is the thing the patient will benefit from.
Dumble··on Zod: TypeScript-first schema validation with static type inference
If your i.e. server process kills itself when validating data, that's not the Problem of ZOD. The violation failing is an expected case, that is the use case for such a library.
Dumble··on Garnet – A new remote cache-store from Microsoft Research
I'm not the person you are replying too, but I believe that of course, the pattern holds if you keep shifting it down. I.E. using a faster CPU will speed up all programs running on it, each (already optimized) ASIC has to be optimized further individually.

Who are the 7 Million? In Italy? I only find figures between 1million and 1.5million. Can't be europe either, several coutries in the region have more. Very confusing.

Dumble··on I Hacked into Facebook's Legal Department Admin Panel
I find the paragraph where the author described the exploit hard to read.

Basically, he triggered the "Password Reset" process and then guessed the reset token?
