Team lead Visualization and XR at SURF. Supports HPC users with data visualization on supercomputer Snellius. XR innovation, co-organizer National XR Day, coordinator XR Developer Network.

Tooting on a wide variety of topics, there's lots of stuff I find interesting. (And I really wish Mastodon had a way to make multiple channels on a single account).

@wdormann@infosec.exchange As noted in the readme in the repo, the issue being exploited was already recognized in 2020. Bit of a shame it never got patched back then.

At the moment, this is solved by failing open: If the mm is gone, we pretend that it was dumpable. That's dubious from a security perspective - as one example, we drop the mm_struct before the file descriptor table, so someone might be able to steal file descriptors from an exiting tasks when dumpability was supposed to prevent that.

@Di4na@hachyderm.io @alexandrageese@bonn.social Interesting, can you give some more explanation on why sovereignty is not the the right framework for open source? I know almost nothing about (EU) sovereignty initiatives, but am pretty familiar with open source.

@mho@social.heise.de Another idea could be to add a net migration mode, showing either an incoming or outgoing arrow between relevant country pairs.

@mho@social.heise.de @dataisbeautiful Very nice, easy to use. Some suggestions: the arrow heads often are too big and obscure the destination countries when they are small. On Firefox hovering over a country name in the lists shows both the regular tooltip and the CSS-formatted one, overlapping. The map projection used is a bit stretched it seems.

@Edent@mastodon.social @openbenches The big blobs grouping multiple benches are a bit suboptimal. Although I still like them a bit better than the usual grouping into a count per area. At least the heatmap blobs gives some view of distribution that's easier on the eyes.

@olivia Hmm, somewhat torn on this. Having some GenAI skills is not a bad thing, even in academia. But "How do you make sure your text looks authentic?" doesn't sound great. "How can you get GenAI to successfully rewrite your text so that a business note turns into a creative LinkedIn post?" doesn't sound great either.

@Blender Wanted to run the (cli) benchmark, but unfortunately ftp.nluug.nl is down and I don't see an option to force another mirror for the binary?

Yeah right. Also, nobody asked you to get "us" to this point, nor did "we" actively work towards it.
