Having it as a dynamic library is not enough. It has to be a dynamic library tgat you can replace . This doesn’t work when, for instance, distributing through many app stores.

Not explicitly, but in practice, it does. It is often not viable to jump through the hoops required to do it. That is, if your lawyers will even let you try.

VS now ships clang, so that should improve support for C considerably. Objective-C is C, with extensions. Swift interoperates with C, not C++.

LGPL is incompatible with signed executables, which locks it out of anything distributed through an app store, which is a lot of software these days.

Is it better that no tools will actually be able to export the format? Also, a GPL-licensed encoder will in no way stop incompatible extensions.

At university, we once built a networked doorbell system for the offices. Lots of small displays with a button outside the doors, connected on a CAN bus to a controller, that you could configure, and another device in the office to make noi

Since we do not know what exactly it is, defining "directly" is not really something you can do. But, for instance, electroweak interaction is being looked at, I gather?

There is not such a lack of public voices that we must give every single one, even though of absolutely awful people, an equal hearing. There are many, many people who would be more informative to listen on this topic. They could have been

And how do you find out if they turn out to be right, if you dismiss them immediately as "ridiculous"? That is not how science works. There are other ways of judging if a theory is worth exploring than just a "it must be test

Many discoveries in physics have quite large timespans between being theorised to exist, and being actually detected. Was it ridiculous to say those might exist?

Not at all relevant, as we can see the effects of dark matter in many places, very clearly.

Is it really worth this much effort of yours to defend the honour of a guy who is so involved with a pedophile rapist and pimp that he arranged a conference on said pedophile's private island, where he kept his sex slaves? Like, isn&#x

"There's no evidence" is a weird claim to make against a thing that is well known to have happened, to the point that it is documented on Wikipedia? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_M._Krauss#Allega

You can't really assume a strong password, because if you have to type in 12 characters, letters and punctuation marks every time you want to look at your phone, you're going to give up on the whole thing pretty quickly. To be usa

I have literally never felt "judged by the CoC police" in any project that has one. I have no idea why you would ever feel that way. Pretty much every CoC says "do not be a raging asshole". I am fully capable of not bein

Sure. That is incredibly expensive and time-consuming, and due to anti-tampering protections has a high possibility of destroying the data before it can be extracted. So, not realistically viable in 99.99% of attack scenarios.

No, Apple is using known technology that has existed for quite a while now. Secure enclaves aren't new or mysterious, they are established technology.

How do you read data inside the secure enclave, then?

Replacing components does not give you access to the secure enclave which is on-chip. And that is where the encryption key for the storage lives.

That is not very strong protection - it lets you perform dictionary attacks at high speed. It is often more secure to generate a random, high-entropy key and storing it in secure storage, which is what the iPhone does.

Physical access does not at all need to mean that the game is over, with today's architectures. With an iPhone, any storage you can access with physical access is going to be encrypted. The encryption key lives in the secure enclave, w
