"Jit-Picking: Differential Fuzzing of JavaScript Engines" publications.cispa.saarland/3773/1/2022-CC…
Fig 1 from the paper. 

Caption "Overview of our design. Fuzzing inputs are passed to both the interpreter and optimizing JIT-compiler; comparing
their internal state during execution (using probes injected into the input) reveals miscomputations."

On x86, the stack grows “down” towards lower addresses. However, this is only true in the northern hemisphere due to the Coriolis effect. In Australia, the stack grows up actually. That’s because they are all looking at their monitors upside down to avoid falling off the planet.

IMPORTANT UNICODE NOTICE: The character "ꙮ" (U+A66E) is being updated in version 15.0.0. Because it doesn't have enough eyes. It needs to have three more eyes.

I absolutely love that there's a unicode character with a single documented use, and it wasn't even correct. Who wants ꙮ stickers. Limited edition, until my computer updates to Unicode 15

Quality piece by @peterpomeranzev on the importance of perceptions. Information operations - conducted by govs and esp bottom up by civic society - are therefore crucial
theguardian.comDespite his defeats, Putin still shapes our perceptions. Let’s fight him at his own game | Peter PomerantsevStrengthen sanctions and support the Ukraine military, of course. But the west needs to get its own messages across with an ideological offensive

in the climax of the book, the clock strikes midnight for the year 2000, and nothing happens. the world does not, as much of the populace was expecting/hoping, end. nothing is over, the problems are as bad as ever and life just has to KEEP GOING

Back in the old days this would be the time Harry and Meghan would make their move, kill Charles, throw William in prison, and declare a new era after a few days of killings. Honestly, no one has a sense of tradition anymore.

Leonard escaped as he believed the Navy was making him a scapegoat and he wasn't willing to do 20 years. He admitted to bribing Navy officers with prostitutes and cash for sweet contracts. But he said many admirals knew what was going on. They were let off scot-free. Listen:
