  Asus ZenBook 3 vs MacBook: Has Apple Met Its Match?

With its upcoming ZenBook 3, Asus is the latest company to compete with Apple's superthin 12-inch MacBook. Due out later this year, the 12.5-inch laptop is even slimmer than the MacBook and one-ups Apple's offering with a faster CPU and a range of fashion colors. Though we haven't been able to test the ZenBook 3 in our labs yet, we've studied the specs and spent some hands-on time with the slim system to learn about its capabilities. So based on what we know today, which superslim not...

  Let's talk about JavaScript deep clone

In JavaScript, deep clone means creating a brand new object that includes all nested objects, with all properties being completely independent copies. This is different from shallow copying, which only copies the first-level properties, with nested objects being referenced rather than copied. There are multiple ways to perform deep copying in JavaScript, but the best one to use depends on the specific use case. Can use JSON.parse & JSON.stringify? ❌ JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(obj)) is a dep...

  How to make select in WinSock exceed the 64-socket limit

When doing cross-platform network programming, the only API available on Windows that corresponds to the epoll/kevent style reactor event model is select. However, it has a limitation: the number of sockets passed into select cannot exceed FD_SETSIZE, which is set to 64. Therefore, select in Java’s NIO on Windows also has the same limit. Many services ported to Windows that use the reactor model face this constraint, which often gives the impression that server programs on Windows hav...

  Processing Unicode Data in Python - A Primer to Understand Non-English Data Processing

Introduction: Currently we live in a world where people of diverse cultures/backgrounds use electronic devices to express their ideas, do their daily work that earns them their daily bread, and entertain themselves using content that is created using their own language and so on. Naturally, in order to make all these things happen, any computational instrument, be it a laptop or a desktop computer, or a smartphone, or something else, should be capable enough to serve all of these things in a man...

  How Query Optimizer Works in RDBMS

In a previous post, we discussed how the various relational operators are implemented in relational database systems. If you have read that post, you probably still remember that there are a few alternative implementations for every operator. Thus, how should RDBMS determine which algorithm (or implementation) to use? Obviously, to optimize the performance for any query, RDBMS has to select the correct the algorithm based on the query. It would not be desirable to always use the same algori...

  Do Not Be Misled by ‘Build an App in 5 Minutes’: In-Depth Practice with Cursor

In August this year, I tried out Cursor and was thoroughly impressed, prompting me to write an introductory article about it. Soon after, I transitioned my daily work environment entirely from GitHub Copilot + JetBrains to the paid version of Cursor. After several months of use, it has felt incredibly smooth. While using it myself, I’ve often recommended Cursor to colleagues and friends. However, many of them still have questions, such as: What advantages does it have over native ChatGPT ...

  Mock Solutions for GoLang Unit Test

In Go development, Unit Test is inevitable. And it is essential to use Mock when writing Unit Tests. Mock can help test isolate the business logic it depends on, enabling it to compile, link, and run independently. Mock needs Stub. Stub function replaces the real business logic function, returns the required result, and assists the test. I involved the related test code for Controllers while writing Kubernetes Operator recently, and there would be mocks for GRPC and HT...

  A Sip of Go Log

Logging is indispensable in any code that we need its support both in debugging and in statistics. However, a package that filled withfmt.Println/fmt.Printf printing various messages can never be considered a read-to-be-adopted package, which can be optimized by a simple change, using Golang’s native log package to print information to standard output or to a file. Then, how to apply the log package? Are there any limitations? If so, can we seek open-source packages? Let&rsq...

  Python Deserialization Attack Introduction: How to Build a Python Pickle Bomb

This article introduces an old and classic unsecured Python data serialization feature (the pickle library) and demonstrates how a red team attacker can exploit it to create a malicious binary or text data file that executes remote code or commands upon deserialization. The following attack flow diagram illustrates this process: We will follow 3 steps with the program code to show how Deserialization Attacks Work:   [ Step1 ] Crafting Malicious Data: An attacker crafts a malicious payloa...
