Oops, I didn't realize there was a paywall (using tor browser w/ ublock origin there isn't).

I've edited the post body to include the whole article now.

To answer your question: yes, YTA 🤦

Also, I'm deleting this post per asklemmy rule 3.

Snopes says they haven't found evidence that this is something he actually said, and also that even if he did say it, it was most likely "kayfabe" - a pro wrestling term for maintaining the story line outside of the ring.

Otoh, https://www.houstonpress.com/news/opinion-the-reality-behind-hulk-hogan-vs-andre-the-giant-16554572 is an interesting read i just found while searching for the above which includes some good reasons why Andre might legitimately have stopped being friends with Hogan. Also TIL Jesse Ventura tried to unionize WWF and later learned in court that it was in fact Hogan who had ratted him out to their boss (Vince McMahon). (Or maybe this is all just higher-order kayfabe? 🤡)

Ah, figures. I should know better than to post quotes without checking if they’re attributed correctly

jackie chan wtf meme

Why don't you correct it then? (Eg, either delete your post, or replace the linked image with an updated one that attributes the quote correctly.)

This isn't facebook; please don't post years-old misattributed quote memes.

CBOR uses variable-sized length prefixes. Strings zero to 23 bytes long require just one byte of overhead, after that it becomes two bytes for strings up to length 255, and 3 bytes of overhead for strings up to 65535. Above that, it requires 5 bytes of overhead, which is probably enough for strings up to at least a few hundred GB, though I didn't test that far.

click to see how i empirically determined those numbers$ python -c 'import cbor; overhead=0; print({ length:overhead for length in range(65537) if overhead < (overhead:=len(cbor.dumps("a"*length))-length) })'

{0: 1, 24: 2, 256: 3, 65536: 5}
