The concept is not new and is relatively well known.

The article claims this is the first analysis and indication/proof that it is being used [by advertisers]. They do not claim that browser fingerprinting is new.

I'm surprised they don't have a major release announcement. The GitHub Release is a change log, and the Release page, without a dedicated subpage for the release, reads more like "individual improvements from last release".

Looks like an interesting UI framework. I want to try it out.

Browsers typically ask you to grant permission before sharing sensitive information.

Manufacturers now have to deliver security updates …

Does this apply to new devices, or past ones too?

Is there a company or delivery size above that this applies and below not? Or would this apply to small manufacturers trying to produce or establish their first product too?

NFC Release 15, with an increase from 0.5 cm to 2 cm.

I didn't add a star at the end for the word search, so at least for that example, the sarcastic ones were all 'amazingly' and consequently not counted, and the 'amazing' at the end seems literal. I haven't looked at any other cases, though.

A Python-specific question is better suited to the !python@programming.dev community instead of the general programming one.

Glad you're so appreciative and worked through it! I gladly share, discuss, and respond.

I'll have to read up on palette filters. :) I do semi-regularly use ffmpeg, but palette filters are not something I have heard or used before.

I assume in this case it's a downsampling into fewer colors, evading the issues of almost-same-colors?

Especially given the last square/check pattern makes me thing of codecs splitting into square blocks and then encoding those. It could make sense that this division leads to different results for one reason or another, which then produces a check pattern without it being there before.

For comparison, "amazing" occurs six times.

Only one of them barely reaching 200. For the size of the Linux kernel I find these numbers surprisingly low.

I don't see a sharp drop as a sign of corporate oversight at all.

Stuff may be tackled en-batch. Or individuals can care. Or it can be an organic team decision or effort.

 

For those familiar with Git terminology:

The simplest way to assemble a triangular workflow is to set the branch’s merge key to a different branch name, like so:

[branch “branch”]
   remote = origin
   merge = refs/heads/default

This will result in the branch pullRef as origin/default, but pushRef as origin/branch, as shown in Figure 9.

Working with triangular forks requires a bit more customization than triangular branches because we are dealing with multiple remotes. […]

 

Explicit Assembly References are stand-alone assemblies directly referenced in your project. They are not pulled in through NuGet packages, project references, or the Global Assembly Cache (GAC). These assemblies often represent legacy .NET Framework components, especially those compiled for 32-bit, which are not easily upgraded to modern .NET and may exist outside of package management.

Until now, the Toolbox in the Windows Forms designer only displayed controls sourced from NuGet packages or project references.

 

This first push resulted in NuGet Restore times being cut in half, which was a reasonable stopping point for our work. However, along the way, we realized that a more extensive rewrite could improve performance by a factor of 5x or more.

Written from the perspective of several team members, this entry provides a deep dive into the internals of NuGet, as well as strategies to identify and address performance issues.
