Recently I learned someone wrote a modern alternative to the legendary p0f passive network fingerprinting tool, and in Rust. Good job! It was always a cool idea and a tool. https://t.co/xxuW6ygd99

@BlackDuck_SW is @CoverityScan account dead? It wasn't updated for years and does not respond to the questions either: https://t.co/jXFCL8jLov

[Anton Kochkov @akochkov]

@CoverityScan Looks like the service is down for a week already. Are there any plans to restore it?

Hacking OCaml: This talk breaks down a CTF puzzle Corwin de Zahr designed a few years back that involves finding problems and vulnerabilities within the OCaml runtime. Read the full transcript here: https://t.co/Csur1fTN7F https://t.co/EzrctyH4Fk #OCaml #OCamlPlanet

@pinkflawd Something like this but in 3D and interactive would really cool though.

@UltorDeepSpace I will check. All information there is quite outdated though.

[Anton Kochkov @akochkov]

@amaanq @zack_overflow I recommend Codeberg nowadays for everyone (or self-hosted Forgejo). They also work on decentralization by supporting federation protocols. Another good option, if you want the power of minimalism is SourceHut.

[OCaml @ocaml_org]

Easy parsing with reasonable error messages in OCaml's Angstrom: PARSER combinators are widely used in the world of functional programming, and OCaml's Angstrom library is one of them. It is used to implement many foundational parsers… https://t.co/InBmcZiSfI #OCaml #OCamlPlanet

[Anton Kochkov @akochkov]

GitLab bailed out of decentralizing via federation: https://t.co/z1prZEP5Oy
The only remaining contender is Forgejo: https://t.co/HVGC8aeT5H

@RetroTechChris @threadreaderapp VirtualBox is based on the very old QEMU though...
