I've been writing C for 8 years and have confidently downcast pointers after checking for value overflow. TIL that typecasting pointers to a smaller datatype works on little-endian architectures. It's obvious why this doesn't work on big-endian systems, but I learned it the hard way.

It turns out my PR is more of a test fest than a feature feat, with twice as much code dedicated to making sure everything works.

Windows update broke accessing dev drives from WSL and Docker Desktop. 😭

I am wondering if this belongs to a popular trojan family. couldn't find anything on "rjhpe" reported by Virustotal. https://x.com/ramenhost/status/1840287912908468500/photo/1

Java wants to replace Python as the language for AI.
y'all think this possible? https://twitter.com/java/status/1838946561042076007 https://x.com/ramenhost/status/1839371092429095117/photo/1

I feel super lucky to have worked with some of the brilliant minds at Samsung. If you're into 5G or high-performance packet processing, give it a read. It was a massive learning experience for me!

Last year, I decided to contribute to tools that I use and fix issues as they arose. While most of the patches were minor fixes, it ranged from C to Rust, from Chrome extensions to React Native. It has been a good side quest. https://x.com/ramenhost/status/1819054388037799939/photo/1

I wonder how many orgs utilized Intel AMT for recovery from CrowdStrike. Intel has published a community post on how to remediate Falcon driver issue with Intel vPro.

CrowdStrike Analysis:

It is clearly NOT a NULL pointer in my minidump file.

It is about time that someone reverse engineers the Channel file format, and we know how csagent.sys ended up with an invalid pointer. https://t.co/pb9QwoIwI2 https://t.co/NV1Cn9ANIu

FWIW, this channel file is NOT faulty and is probably a fixed version. Taken from a system that recovered after a momentary BSOD. https://t.co/FtbPTsINXZ https://x.com/ramenhost/status/1814231028179100107/photo/1

One liner `p == q` to check if two binary trees are same. Power of rust🦀derived traits.
