Why not just compress a directory then encrypt that?

This is beautiful, but what would be even better is to have the program open a reverse shell so you can log into the computer to install pandas manually.

I think one thing to mention is that Rust is highly specific in what it does. In most of the examples you mentioned, string types, tokio::main, you can essentially just say that rust is more explicit. When initializing an integer variable in C using int, it's not specified what use the integer is or whether it's signed or not. i32, uint16_t you can see how it's specified. Using tokio::main before your main function just specifies that you're using the tokio asynchronous executor for your async code. In the case of string types, they all have different implementations which just help with being specific.
The reason I like Rust is because I know what's happening when I read it. Did I have to read the whole async book to understand how the tokio::main stuff works? Yes. But now I understand exactly how it works. The problem I have with using Javascript is that it doesn't have that high amount of explicitness(is that a word?). At the end of the day, if you're using it for a personal project or you're arguing for language supremacy, it really just comes down to personal preference.

Sweet - I didn't realize that malware is tailored for one OS usually, but that makes a lot more sense.
This is going to sound fishy. Recently getting into cybersecurity things and have been pretty interested in looking at malware and maybe making some myself to get the hang of it. Do you guys know any good repositories with malware to learn from? For example, if I wanted to make a credential stealing program, there's a lot of different programs that may have credentials that are valuable. Or, maybe writing a keylogger? I took a look at a rust crate that can record keystrokes but has kind of a weird (or at least not as easy) type system because of different OS implementations, but how do different types of malware consolidate those differences? I guess the broader question I'm getting at specifically is looking at how already made programs get around different technical obstacles like detailed above. Thanks

Is anyone actually going to go and check what they asked for? I feel like I understood what they asked but still don't know where to start if I were to try.

Is that someone's attempt at spelling genre?
I went to my local library today and noticed there's a lot of networking, cybersecurity, tcp/ip books from the early 2000s. Now, I want more modern versions of these types of handbooks. Does anyone know any good modern handbooks that deal with networking or network security standards? Thanks :)

Why do the tech heads show why it won't be adopted mainstream any time soon?

Linux doesn't always work. We know that. But it looks like you're misconstruing your specific issue with some broader argument for Linux being mainstream. The fact that you connected it to a switch tells me that youre already more advanced than the average user. I get you're annoyed, but you can also just ask about your specific issue.

The article made a few good points, but a good amount of it was conjecture. I liked the part about comparing the two functions and showing that exceptions are faster but I think a big thing he's not getting is readability. Even in the functions he showed, you can directly see that the one using std::expected has the happy path and error path directly in the function signature, whereas the exception one doesn't.
As for the "error kind" trap he was talking about, that definitely exists, but ignores the fact that you can also get this same kind of error from exceptions. I've definitely gotten exceptions that I didn't understand from Python or Java libraries, but it's not a problem with exceptions but a problem with how they're shown. If there's nothing to tell me that I should have thought of that error, it shouldn't be an expectation for a dev to have thought of it.

I think most use who use keepass instead of bitwarden do so because keepass is offline, unlike bitwarden. At least that's what I understand.

I thought this was going to refer to a fur dracula on first read.
I wanted to get others' takes but it seems like the only real way to get a non-spying car is to get an older car without any sort of telemetrics. I saw a video about different car companies' security policies, well specifically the new Mental Outlaw video, and it just blew me away how even our cars aren't safe. Anyone got tips for how to anonymize their car?
I've seen a lot of different enterprise and personal use distros for servers, but what do you guys use? I'm planning on using Debian but was wondering if there are any other good free options to consider.
I've been looking around to find a good, privacy respecting way to sync my messages between phones. I decided I'm going to use SyncThing so I don't have to mess around with a server. The only problem with this is that I haven't been able to find any apps that work on modern Android that routinely backup and import messages from a file/folder into the messages database. Does anyone know any app that might do this?
I recently purchased a domain for myself as a why-the-fuck-not purchase and I need some ideas for what to put on there. Some ideas so far include: Small Blog Personal S/FTP server to sync back to Minecraft server Does anyone have other ideas? Thanks :)
Smooth breath I beset from your bated breath Unless the stress that's given to me clear Resides unfound and unclear The key to my restitution lies in recognition Opaque and sticky, defiance. Then remission Upset and overreliant on bad positions The lever's balance is set on a dud pivot Problems unseen stay while shit thickens While the root is left untapped The branch kindles
When the words barely whisper And the songs known forgotten When the seldom well wished And a stone throw's the bottom When the once well trodden Is soiled down and sodden Accept the well wishes of ones who once wished And song without a singer like food without dish And sing those well wishes to your brother on a lake Stoning throws, hitting water, showing off for the sake
I'm trying to find a good fuzzing tool for testing my web applications and was wondering what people would recommend. I'm trying to find one that is open source, free, and doesn't use proprietary stuff. It seems like Google's OSSFuzz is the closest option to what I'm looking for, but it uses Google cloud :/
I've been trying to find something that allows me to see performance visualizations in my rust programs, but I haven't found any so far. I'm looking for something that's like [SnakeViz](https://pypi.org/project/snakeviz/) in Python, but for Rust. If there's a better way to get about doing this, I'm all ears.
