Telnet IS TCP. “Telnet wrapped in a thin layer of XOR” might fit better?

there’s some resource that says ‘change this part to do x’.
Arguably, this is just a different type of script.
I think the real separation is that while you might seek out a few different resources, or try a few alternatives to solve a problem, a “script-kiddie” is likely stuck if the first result in Google doesn’t solve the problem immediately.
For my definition of script-kiddie, its not that they won’t change something, they by definition cannot because they dont understand it.
We may have different definitions here, but that is the one I am familiar with.
Script-kiddie is a derogatory term for a computer user who can’t read or edit the code. Scripts might be useful to us, but they may as well be opaque to a script-kiddie.

They may not have been formally vetted, but they are in the sense that the majority of those 200 crates are used widely in everyone else’s projects.
But yeah, this is definitely a blind spot, not just for rust, but all modern build systems that accept code from various sources. At least cargo vet is a step in the right direction.

Yeah, no doubt, he is a piece of shit.
For what its worth, he would probably choose to self-exclude himself from the Linux community, while he desperately tries to get Hurd relevant.
I didn’t say there are no pedophiles, just that its not part of the stereotype.
I had to google that, because it sounded like a type of boat.
But sure, cat-enbys are welcome.
Catgirls, Catboys, all are welcome!
I dont think pedophiles was ever part of the profile. Catgirls sure, but not pedophiles.

Did you give diesel orm a go? It is fairly mature at this point.




Thats what I thought as well, but TLS as a term felt a bit too technical for the meme format, which is why I suggested XOR.
