- WhitneyLand 9y agoI didn’t hold out much hope of a surgical response (because it’s not the most common thing being done in projects) but that looks like a great link exactly on point. It may sound cynical but as I mentioned anecdotally is does really feel like the AI winter, where simultaneously people felt there was incredible promise while hearing a steady stream of discouraging progress reports. I look forward to reading their paper, maybe there are a lot more bright spots than can be easily seen from the outside.
- CalChris 9y agoI think that formal verification is going to be size limited. seL4 is a microkernel which means small, about 9000 LOC. I don't think xen at 150,000 is within the abilities of verification. So it's promising for small stuff.
