Linux Mint replaced Ubuntu as the best first distro, and Ubuntu's own choices explain why
AI summary
Linux Mint đã thay thế Ubuntu trở thành distribution đầu tiên tốt nhất cho người mới bắt đầu. Sự thay đổi này chủ yếu do Ubuntu chuyển sang sử dụng GNOME Shell làm environment mặc định thay vì desktop truyền thống như trước. Thay đổi này đã tạo ra trải nghiệm người dùng phức tạp hơn, đặc biệt là với những người dùng quen với giao diện desktop đơn giản. Hệ quả là Ubuntu mất đi sự thân thiện với người mới, trong khi Linux Mint giữ được sự đơn giản và trực quan. Bài viết này giúp hiểu tầm quan trọng của UX trong việc lựa chọn công nghệ cho người dùng mới.

sbom-cve-check 1.4.0 released
sbom-cve-check 1.4.0 has been released, adding an OpenVEX exporter and improving Linux kernel CVE analysis and version parsing. The new openvex export type, contributed by Andrey Zhizhikin, generates OpenVEX v0.2.0 documents with VEX assessments, configurable via a new --export-author option. Kernel CVE handling now distinguishes mainline versions like 6.12 from stable versions like 6.12.34 to reduce false positives and negatives. Version parsing also gained support for formats like 0.9~rc5 and Ubuntu-style suffixes, and build metadata like 1.25.0+4f85853f64 is now ignored per semver rules. Install or upgrade with pip install --upgrade "sbom-cve-check[extra]".

What is malloc doing, anyway?
malloc has a very nice and simple interface: you ask for a certain amount of memory, and you’re given a void pointer to your block of contiguous bytes that’s been magicked into existence. Once you’re done with it, you call free with the same pointer and the memory disappears into the ether.
