Ah, the long form advertisement, complete with straw men and all other maladies of the advertising field.
(Did he really find "more than 400 memory unsafety vulnerabilities."? Or did he did he do a grep for memcpy and assume all them were vulnerabilities? That no checking was previously done?
Seems to me that he falls for the fallacy that anything not hidden must be unsafe. In other words, he "graciously" allows Rust, for example, to verify internally that a buffer index is valid, but denies the validity of doing that externally.
He also cherry picks his bugs, ignoring that the biggest problem are poor algorithms. If Rust were so perfect, why does Mozilla software have bugs?)

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

That must be one powerful upgrade !!! Wonder who wrote the code ?

What if, having a battery already on the edge of failure, the upgrade slightly changed the charging/discharge cycle and thus accelerated and/or compounded the failure?

I love how the ecosystem like to use the same old mantra, "You can sill use <insert old="" os=""> here but you won't get anymore security updates anymore. Oh my gosh I'm shaking.
|
|
|
|
|
In my opinion, the word "but" is not correct there. It should be "and". You can use the old OS AND you won't get any updates. For me, that is a win-win.

Linux is both the most popular operating system and a niche end-user OS. How can that be? Follow along, my friends, and I’ll tell you. And who is responsible?

That's the beauty of it - no one person in the Linux dev community can be blamed for these problems, because they're all responsible.

With the addition of Parallel Algorithms in C++17, you can now easily update your “computing” code to benefit from parallel execution. In the article, I’d like to examine one STL algorithm which naturally exposes the idea of independent computing. Create your own parallel universes
