Yes, it's a canvas library, there's a lot of risks of including AI generated code that hasn't been checked in a rasterizing library.

Author here. There's no AI-generated code in this. But yes, security hardening this has not been a priority of mine (though I do have some ideas about fuzz testing it), so for now - like with many small libraries of this nature - it's convenient but best used only with trusted inputs if that's a concern.

A lot of risks compared to what? I imagine bugs in kernel drivers or disk utilities be riskier.

Such as?

NeKernel is a microkernel project written in modern C++. I just shipped a new release, v0.1.21, with improved APIs and a new WiP language frontend in Nectar's repository. The following link points to the NeKernel software distribution and its development branch, please give it a star here: https://github.com/nekernel-org/src


Hi, thanks for the input, is it allowed to upload this again as a Show HN?


You should be able to delete this post and redo it. Or maybe you can edit it to be one?


Yes I can edit it, It went through the right category now, thanks a lot for the help!


  Location: Paris, FR  
  Remote: Open to remote work  
  Willing to relocate: Yes (U.S. preferred)  
  Technologies: C++, Objective-C, C, Linux, Java, Assembly, Docker

  Looking for kernel-level roles (filesystems, schedulers, 
  low-level systems).  
  Open to full-time opportunities, especially ones involving 
  custom OS or performance-critical infrastructure.

  Thanks in advance for reading.


Hi, I've got open-source project(s) focused on low-level C/C++ mostly around kernels, toolchains and boot infrastructure.

Check it out: https://github.com/amlel-el-mahrouss (it's on the pinned repositories)


Ah, yes, was that because of a lack of inline assembly? I feel like these could be replaced by 'nop' operations.


I'm surprised that nobody has talked about HaikuOS, I used to daily drive for a while before returning to Linux or OS X, depending on what I do.


>Supported platforms: x86, 32-bit and 64-bit

Because it's not relate to the question.

Edit: Sorry they support other platforms. See next comment.

Thanks I haven't seen that. I take it all back. Maybe they could add a note on their download page.
