yonatankon NSO Group iMessage Zero-Click Exploit Captured in the Wild

As someone who has some familiarity with the people and processes, this response seems extremely off to me.

Care to share your sources for that? As far as I know most are self taught and get some further training in military.

> Boring.

It might be boring to some and might be extremely interesting for others. People who like solving puzzles and facing hard challenges usually like it. Of course, if your passion is building you wouldn't like it as you don't "build" something new.

Have you met these people at all? Because it definitely sounds like you haven't and you just describe the typecast some movie would use.

yonatankon Faster and simpler with the command line: deep-comparing JSON files with jq

It looks like JSON doesn't specifically define how numeric numbers should be stored. It just recommends expecting precision up to the double precision limits.

Still interesting to know it's not just a jq quirk.

yonatankon Faster and simpler with the command line: deep-comparing JSON files with jq

Just a heads up to anyone using jq - I've previously spent a couple of hours debugging a problem because jq uses float64 to store integers (which might lead to rounding-errors/overflows). For example:

  echo 1152921504606846976 | jq
