Do you know about any protocol deciphering tool?

I'm trying to reverse engineer a kinda simple tcp data stream, and the values are tag-length-value for the most part, and I made a simple mitm proxy that prints known tags and their data values (that I was able to decipher) live, but I am doing the deciphering of known and unknown tags manually, but I was wondering if there is some way to automate this?

I basically would be interested in automatic seen tag tracking, replaying select tags many times to see if they are idempotent, replaying and modifying bytes on a select tag, omitting a select tag and seeing how the client responds.

I guess I could find the socket receive function in the binary and see if the tag values are in a switch or something too but like the original article, it's also new territory for me to read that.

I am just about to expand my mitm proxy with more code to inject/filter packets.

Songs of Syx is a very performant game that uses 1. I believe, not 100% sure though. It's like Dwarf Fortress but with 100 of times more amount of map actors.

I don’t think you can conclude that the ship is sinking per say, rather those at the helm are being changed.

Is that a suggestion to protect network packets or is there another use on the client?

I saw Marques Brownlee's video on solar roof tiles and it seems to solar roof tiles are a real thing -- though not sure about the SolarCity relation.

I think it wouldn't hurt to view Elon as a parroter of information in this case, there's absolutely no incentive to lie and launches get canceled all the time due to weather, your expectations should already be tempered.

Tires make or break snow driving, no?

On CVE I see a fact-oriented bug tracker style database of CVE issues with a schmorgus board link/reference barf on each CVE page, but on the OP site I see a really well presented (with videos, faq, paper) description of the issue? It does feel self-marketing yes, but it's entirely deserved if they found the issue?

I'm sure keen folk can digest SCM pull requests, but that population is a super minority I think to well presented content disseminated on youtube, sites, blogs, etc.

I don't think CVE being mandated as the only place vulnerability/conversations are had would be optimal, no?

I visited a few common sites and they seem to use HTTP/2. I'm not sure the point of arguing it's not fundamental, a cursory glance shows HTTP/1 is bottlenecked by not being able to use the same TCP connection to serve multiple resources (something HTTP/2 fixes)? Is there ire against HTTP/2 adoption, and for what reasons?

Oh neat, looks like tartube is a GUI frontend for youtube-dl.

DNS lookups are themselves alarming no? Why would you resolve a hostname and not, like, use that IP for something? Maybe some argument of pre-emptive hostname resolution but even in Ubunutu you can turn off the chatty background OS DNS resolutions.

Any games that use those systems? I guess games that have lots of simulation calculations?

I'm assuming you also need to understand pointers and memory layout perhaps?

He shills diet, sleep and exercise, and maybe circadian stuff. What are you referencing here? The ad sponsors?

I would still use version control since it's literally a zero cost addition and can help with things like bisecting issues. Sometimes I do mini self code reviews via "git add -p" anyways too. Plus it's easier to copy the files/folders from one spot to another without losing any files to data corruption or forgetting to copy a file.

Upper middle class? Is multi-millionaire not "rich" anymore?

There is nuance here you are passing by. This is a classic influence pump and dump, these sort of scams make their rounds in various shitcoins all too often. It is a good thing you are hearing about them, because they are being caught. Don't fall for the survival bias fallacy. However, a well diversified index fund is not the same thing. If it seems the same, keep your money in a savings account and pay tithe to hopefully keep the inflation monster at bay.

Induction proofs are indeed useful, the strongest argument for learning these sort of formal tricks, is you can convince another human that your algorithm correct with pure math. It's one thing to say, look, my program's test suite (that I wrote) passes, or it passes a few criteria, it is another thing entirely to prove without a shadow of a doubt the algorithm is logically sound and correct. Induction proofs are useful with loops, but there are a lot of tricks useful for programmers.

I think they are using automation in detecting "violations" perhaps, given the other commentors did seemingly no-op updates and resolved things -- and any pushback would show the wizard behind the curtains, so they keep it vague as possible?

Unless someone who actually works behind the scenes can chime in.

It's reducing a 2d game into a 1d one which kind of nauseating -- I thought by the title it would be like Super Mario Oyssey with a first person camera.

I upgraded from 1gbe to 2.5gbe and kept the same price. I think offsite backups and even faster downloads/uploads (when I do download) are the biggest wins. Going from 1->2.5 is a roughly ~2.2 speedup for me. I doubt most servers support 5-10gbe yet though. I'm seeing fastly.com and some out-of-isp (but local to my country) speed tests not reaching max speeds yet (but close). Plus more headroom for multiplexing users.

Going to gigabit fibre was like upgrading from hdd->ssd. Going to multi-gigabit is like ssd->nvme. Most use cases really don't need it, but when you do disk (network) intensive stuff it pays off.

It sucks that 10gbe is more widely adopted though than 2.5/5gbe, probally since the latter is a more recent technology.

I have the Kingnovy 2.5gbe one (4 i226 ports and n6005 cpu), on baremetal (128gb nvme and 16gb ram) and not using vm yet but I think you could without problems (~<25% cpu usage during speedtests -- and hardware offloading is disabled by default on opnsense), it does ~2.3gbe download/upload on a 2.5gbe plan (maybe overhead?) and 10ms bufferbloat on download/upload which is pretty good and gets an 'A' rating on waveform buffer bloat test.

It is fanless heatsink design but has fan pin for an addable fan. Hot to touch, we'll see if there's any issues.

This is just a switch but similiar 2.5gbe routers can run pfsense or opnsense with i225/i226 chips and intel/amd cpus. Servethehome covers quite a few of them.

I'm finding it can increase LDL in some cases apparently. I have been taking it daily for past year and my HDL and LDL levels improved though. Although, my diet and exercise regimine improved drastically.

What about testosterone?

Not sure, but isn't 20-30% of the protein lost in digestion?

There are a lot of reasons why tenure might be short, but many short tenures, I agree are alarming because people are more lenient when a developer "ramps" up. If they are able to stick around and get promoted, that's a strong counter signal.

I'm curious, but not to pry the exact details, how long are your tenures on average -- and would you similiarly penalize someone who worked at one company for many years?

Huh. Interesting. I put a noctua heatsink (dual fan) on mine but I am guessing this is why my overclocking curves weren't that great. Any chance you have the rough before/after numbers and how much did you splurge for the water cooling?

A good argument for WFH has always been commute -- and rightfully so, because 3 hours with your family/girlfriend is worth a lot more than an hour in traffic -- it makes sense.

It seems people need to bridge/gap that loneliness by having/creating their social structure outside of work. I think it's more painful because it requires you to deal with social anxiety, social planning, rejection, etc. but it's much more rewarding.

There's truth to this I found aswell. When I was a teenager I could play video games endlessly, but recently I found video games to be mostly a chore (a few here and there make an exception). I think there's an aspect of limit artifically making a thing more desirable -- but I don't find it reliable, sometimes even indulging in this aspect for activities is the actual time waste I want to avoid.

C and gotos are common from what I've seen -- userspace and kernel C code deals with error handling and resource freeing easier that way.

Open to see examples of (good) C code that doesn't use it though.
