What’s this about?

Hey, can’t go have coffee with you because the water’s been cut and I can’t shower after the big dump I took. No flushing either =D.

(that’s how it went in my mind)

Hmm I don’t know… Users usually don’t pay much attention to security. And the disclosure method actively hides it from the user until it no longer matters.

For providers, I understand, but can’t fully agree. I think it’s a misguided culture that creates busy-work at all levels.

Indeed, then it becomes a market and it incentivises more research on that area. Which I don’t think is helpful for anyone. It’s like your job description being “professional pessimist”. We could be putting that amount of effort into building more secure software to begin with.

That’s the fallacy I’m alluding to when I mention stuxnet. We have really well funded, well intentioned, intelligent people creating tools, techniques and overall knowledge in a field. Generally speaking, some of these findings are more makings then findings.

God, I hate security “researchers”. If I posted an article about how to poison everyone in my neighborhood, I’d be getting a knock on the door. This kind of shit doesn’t help anyone. “Oh but the state-funded attackers, remember stuxnet”. Fuck off.

It can be overwhelming, yes. But it’s not difficult. A bunch of dumb people go through it every day and they get to their destination just fine. =)

Don’t worry about anxiety, once you get there just focus on the next thing that needs to be done at any given moment and you’ll be ok. You’ll find that the brain gets into a problem-solving state and you’ll be landing in Korea before you even notice.

Glad there was no banana for scale.

Oh and lsp-mode is super opinionated, it does a million things you don’t want or need, so I wouldn’t recommend that.

Well, OP mentions he cannot install software on the machine, so I think that already blocks anything depending on lsp.

My experience is mostly from doing linux kernel programming on remote baremetal machines. I use ccls + eglot locally and have fiddled a lot with tramp, which is really good when it does work, but also tends to trip over bad connections.

I’ve also wrote all sorts of elisp hacks to be able to access the remote machine via tramp but have all code navigation commands apply to a local repository replica where the lsp server runs. My use case was similar to OP but the machines were not x86_64, so there wasn’t even any lsp ported.

So yeah, my gut feeling having dealt with similar issues is that it’s not worth it, YMMV.

cscope? ccls? clangd? Surely there’s something there that the other people in the team are using.

That doesn’t really solve his issue because what he wants depends on having servers (lint, lsp) running local to the codebase/machine. Anything with emacs will be a major pain unless it’s a really small project.

Five bad things about Lemmy. You won’t believe the last one.

It’s communion!

From a non-american’s perspective this question is just baffling.

Is high-school that bad of an experience for you guys? Where I come from that’s one of the best times in your life, when you get to hang out with friends and have little responsibility, etc.

About homelessness, that’s another crazy one. People need to have a home and need friends and human interaction. Sleeping in your car without ever interacting with anyone is not a way of life.

Others have also mentioned that prison without people is solitary confinement and that is known to literally drive people mad.

Hey, so I finally reached the ashlands. Yeah, still think the trailer is misleading. Like everything about it, except the staff of protection.

Unfortunately, the ashlands is the most boring place in the whole game (haven’t reached the castle thing with a beacon though). Fast skeleton, slow skeleton, archer skeleton. Troll spider, big dog, fire blob. Inventory full within 30s because there’s 15 different types of material to collect. Maybe I should be pulling a cart around like in the trailer.

There’s human fossils where it’s clear they poured molten bronze or something into a mans skull to patch the broken bone. Using metals to mend bones has been a practice since ever basically.

Words of wisdom right here.

Personally, what bothers me about the security field is how quickly it becomes a counterproductive thing. Either by forcing people to keep working on time consuming processes like certifications or mitigation work (e.g. see the state of CVEs in the linux kernel) or simply by pumping out more and more engineers that have never put together a working solution in their lives. Building anything of value is already hard as it is nowadays.

Yes, and it was my first job out of university. Incredible. It has set the standard for me. Everyone extremely polite, restrained, no oversharing, no politics discussions in the office, no drama. People would just gravitate towards those that shared their views and would have coffee breaks at different times than other groups. Everyone was painfully aware of how bad these things can get, so we all made an effort to keep the environment light.
