acrispino··on Inside ZCode: Silently uploading your Git history to the cloud
z.ai made a statement, screenshotted in this article: https://finance.sina.com.cn/tech/roll/2026-09-18/doc-inisfye...

claude translation:

Dear ZCode users,

We take today's community discussion very seriously. We carried out an internal review right away, and we first want to apologize to the affected users. Here is an explanation of what happened:

The issue stems from ZCode's "codebase indexing" feature. This feature is meant to help users generate a repository index locally, which supports session checkpoint restoration (including past versions), rolling back to past versions, and Repo Wiki, among other things.

When the Repo Wiki feature generates Wiki pages, it may trigger an upload of repository data. After the Wiki pages are generated in the cloud, the uploaded data is destroyed immediately and is not stored. Because this feature was enabled by default in its early launch period, some users were affected. We sincerely apologize for this. The issue has now been fixed.

We understand that any data-related issue directly affects users' trust in a product. We will open-source the ZCode codebase in the near future so we can improve the product within a more open ecosystem. We will also invite third-party evaluators to review how the system operates, and we'll keep publishing updates on the review, building your trust with full transparency.

We deeply apologize for the trouble this has caused. As compensation, all ZCode users will receive one extra weekly quota reset, which will be issued today.

Thank you again for your attention and oversight.

I have 2x asrock R9700. One of the them was noticeably noisier than the other and eventually developed an annoying vibration while in the middle of its fan curve. Asrock replaced it under RMA.

acrispino··on July 2024 Update on Instability Reports on Intel Core 13th/14th Gen Desktop CPUs
An Intel employee is posting on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/intel/comments/1e9mf04/intel_core_1...

A recent YouTube video by GamersNexus speculated the cause of instability might be a manufacturing issue. The employee's response follows.

Questions about manufacturing or Via Oxidation as reported by Tech outlets:

Short answer: We can confirm there was a via Oxidation manufacturing issue (addressed back in 2023) but it is not related to the instability issue.

Long answer: We can confirm that the via Oxidation manufacturing issue affected some early Intel Core 13th Gen desktop processors. However, the issue was root caused and addressed with manufacturing improvements and screens in 2023. We have also looked at it from the instability reports on Intel Core 13th Gen desktop processors and the analysis to-date has determined that only a small number of instability reports can be connected to the manufacturing issue.

For the Instability issue, we are delivering a microcode patch which addresses exposure to elevated voltages which is a key element of the Instability issue. We are currently validating the microcode patch to ensure the instability issues for 13th/14th Gen are addressed

acrispino··on The Design of SQLite4 (2014)
Strict tables were added with 3.37.0, does that help? https://www.sqlite.org/stricttables.html

One issue I've run into while using strict tables is that since sqlite does not (yet?) have a dedicated type for timestamps, a driver like github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3 use the typename in the schema to determine when a column can be converted to a native time datatype. But STRICT tables only allow 6 specific typenames: INT, INTEGER, REAL, TEXT, BLOB, ANY

acrispino··on Google is already pushing WEI into Chromium
From the explainer:

> However, a holdback also has significant drawbacks. In our use cases and capabilities survey, we have identified a number of critical use cases for deterministic platform integrity attestation. These use cases currently rely on client fingerprinting. A deterministic but limited-entropy attestation would obviate the need for invasive fingerprinting here, and has the potential to usher in more privacy-positive practices in the long-term.

I think any holdback will eventually go away because of the "critical use cases for deterministic platform integrity attestation"

acrispino··on Comic Code: Monospaced interpretation of the most over-hated typeface
They are close but when I look at them side by side I give the edge to Comic Code. With Comic Mono I think the lines are a little too thick. Other things I notice, : is too small and <> are too big. YMMV of course

Also, while the complete set of Comic Code is $100, there's a "coding essentials" pack for $30

acrispino··on The future of AlmaLinux
CentOS Stream doesn't do minor releases and I assume AlmaLinux will continue making minor releases as they already do. Not everyone cares about that but some will.

Canonical is working on firefox snap performance: https://snapcraft.io/blog/improving-firefox-snap-performance...

That said, I've switched to using the firefox tarball. Start up performance isn't the only issue. Snap firefox doesn't seem to respect my dconf settings and I experienced some strange hangups that forced me to kill the browser.
