Аудит алгоритмов: как реализация Boyer-Moore с 190K звёзд на GitHub оказалась brute-force

Проверил реализацию Boyer-Moore в TheAlgorithms/Python (190K+ звёзд). Оказалось, что сдвиг bad character записывается в переменную for-цикла, что в Python не имеет эффекта. Алгоритм выдаёт правильные результаты, но работает как brute-force O(nm) вместо O(n/m). Плюс ещё две находки: бесконечный цикл в типичных реализациях full BM и ошибка в оригинальной статье 1977 года, которую исправили только в 1980-м. Читать далее Read more

Сервисы конвертации кода «съедают» опенсорс

Недавно в интернете начал работу сервис рефакторинга Malus.sh по «очистке кода от опенсорсных лицензий». Он позиционирует себя как «чистая комната», где софт очищается от лицензионного бремени. Туда загружается манифест свободного проекта, а LLM за небольшую плату переписывает код с сохранением функциональности. Идея в том, что новый код можно использовать как угодно, без соблюдения требований свободных лицензий APGL, MIT, Apache и др., под которыми опубликован оригинал.Недобросовестные разработчики получаю Read more
