I've been thinking. Android implements app permissions on top of Linux, Flatpak does it too. But why is it it's not part of the kernel?

Like all executable files would be sandboxed and would only be able to access syscalls and parts of the file system if they were allowed to. Making sandboxing the default instead of having to restrict programs.

I'm not a kernel developper so this question may be naive, but it bothers my mind. I guess part of it is because of historical reasons but are there any practical ones that make it not feasable?

EDIT : Thank you all for your answers, almost all of you were very nice and explained things clearly

Le post est bien, mais je dois avouer que la présentation m'a questionné

Well, it's also important to note that the variability is high so the prediction for a single individual won't be of much use

Effectivement, au vu de ces règles j'imagine qu'il y a des vérifications. Merci pour la clarification

Salut tout le monde,

Je me baladais sur OVH pour acheter un nom de domaine et j'ai vu qu'il était possible d'acheter un domaine en .gouv.fr. J'ai pu le mettre dans mon panier et arriver jusqu'au formulaire pour entrer mon numéro de CB. Je n'ai pas envie de payer pour essayer donc je n'irai pas plus loin, mais est-ce que quelqu'un sait si c'est vraiment possible jusqu'au bout ? Je trouverais ça problématique car alors l'extension .gouv.fr ne serait pas un gage de confiance par défaut.

Wow, just wow.

I hate online tools when they could be offline. But I never thought of building offline versions of online services that synchronise when they can. This is definitely something I will be thinking about when building future projects.

My first reaction was disdain, but I think we at least need to wait for the actual proposal to form an opinion.

I don't know, but I don't think hydrochloric acid would be able to break down plastics. However, maybe we could find enzymes that would be able to.

I found this article that says we already have but they don't work at ambient temperature : https://news.utexas.edu/2022/04/27/plastic-eating-enzyme-could-eliminate-billions-of-tons-of-landfill-waste/

Also this one that talks about the subject : https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167779921000408

Et il y avait une commune appelée "Les Enfers", qui existe toujours, en Suisse. J'ai trouvé ça marrant comme noms.
