Grappling with infinity in constraint solvers Published November 17, 2019 by Chris Patuzzo In 2016, I created a programming language called Sentient. Since then, I’ve had time to reflect and think about the language. This series is about that. Many constraint-satisfaction problems deal with infinity in some shape or form. Even rudimentary problems, like "Find two integers that sum to 10". Solutions include: (4, 6) (-7, 17) (-1953856112, 1953856122) That (d)escalated quickly! In fact, the

Microsoft used its AI-powered Security Copilot to discover 20 previously unknown vulnerabilities in the GRUB2, U-Boot, and Barebox open-source bootloaders. GRUB2 (GRand Unified Bootloader) is the default boot loader for most Linux distributions, including Ubuntu, while U-Boot and Barebox are commonly used in embedded and IoT devices. Microsoft discovered eleven vulnerabilities in GRUB2, including integer and buffer overflows in filesystem parsers, command flaws, and a side-channel in cryptogra

It’s 11 o’clock. Do you know where your variables are pointing? def shout ( obj ) obj . to_s + "!" end It’s hard to tell just looking at the code what type obj is. We assume it has a to_s method, but many classes define methods named to_s . Which to_s method are we calling? What is the return type of shout ? If to_s doesn’t return a String , it’s really hard to say. Adding type annotations would help… a little. With types, it looks like we have full knowledge about what each thing is but we a

Other Diophantine equations, such as x2 + y2 = 3, don’t have any integer solutions. Hilbert’s 10th problem asked whether it’s always possible to tell if a given Diophantine equation has integer solutions. Does an algorithm exist to determine this for every equation, or is the problem undecidable? There might be no hope for a complete and systematic approach to all of mathematics—or even all 23 of Hilbert’s problems—but one might still exist when it comes to Diophantine equations, forming a micro
