The wire will cause the entire image to become a little bit darker.

in a telescope light travels in many paths from start to finish. so a single wire will have a very soft shadow, which stretches over the entire image. This works because the wire is well within the focal length. If the wire was exactly at the focal length, it's shadow would be sharp, but the farther away it is from the focal length, the softer the shadow will become.

edit: when the object is exactly at the center of the image, then I think it will still cast a sharp shadow, because all the light-paths that go through the center, stay close to the center. Not sure though

when people post cropped porn, they should also post which porn they cropped, so people know which porn to avoid.

Here are the steps:

• The attacker creates a standard Git repository.
• They commit a single symbolic link pointing to a sensitive target.
• Using the PutContents API, they write data to the symlink. The system follows the link and overwrites the target file outside the repository.
• By overwriting .git/config (specifically the sshCommand), the attacker can force the system to execute arbitrary commands--

amazing.

funfact: because water itself has weight, it produces gravity, therefore it pulls more water towards itself, therefore more water collects in some parts of the world than other.

for example: most of the extra water that comes from global warmings, collects at the pacific because it has a larger surface, therefore US Eastcoast and Europe see very little change in sealevel, while some pacific islands are already gone.

epistemic status: I remember reading this info a couple years ago, but the best source I can found now is that sentence from wikipedia:

Changing ice masses also affect the distribution of sea water around the globe through gravity https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_level_rise

the problem with ORM is that some people go all in on it and ignore pure SQL completely.

In reality ORM only works well for somewhat simple queries and structures, but at some times you will have to write your own queries in SQL. But then you have some bonus complexity, that comes from 2 different things filling the same niche. It's still worth it, but there is no free cake.

but there’s no way to know for sure

draw something from memory on a piece of paper, and then draw the same thing again while looking on a photo. --> can you tell the difference between the two drawings?

hm... actually I think that story only sounds excagerated, but is actually 100% true.

I like the story of guy in medival Münster who founded a classless christian society. When the army of his local loard came knocking, knew God was in his side, so he charged them alone. The army then cut him into pieces and nailed his balls to to towns gate.

Today there are 3 cages on the church of münster, containing the bones of the co-conspirtors

self promo should be allowed if it's marked as ad, and the account is older than 12 months, and keeps it down to 1 post/month. update this rule to ban all ads, when ads make up for more than 20% of all posts.

shirt concepts: dont make a new rule, just because you dont like a single post. whats wrong with you?
