I'm not sure mere mortals can really implement secure cryptosystems. The only normal/personable coder that could is probably cperciva. OTOH, you have Theo. shrugs Point stands.

First paper was pi-related. The bsdiff stuff looks interesting (to me) though.

Deliberate practice can bring that number way down.

Is that something you would pay for? Physical interfaces and keys are something of an obsession of mine (I don't use any keyboards that don't have Cherry MX switches, for example).

Ephemeral volumes are shared, just not nearly as variable.

That occurred to me earlier. There's a lot of people like us (I think) who really just want to accumulate as much "80/20" information as possible and don't want multi-media. Call it, "The wiki for getting to the fucking point".

You're welcome, hope it helped. I really despise non-textual media.

These are von neumann machines, not harvard, at all levels of abstraction save for some newer security measures.

That's not accurate either. You can own an AR-15 in California without a license of any sort, it just cannot have any of the restricted features like a 30 round magazine.

I don't share those concerns because I don't give a fuck about anything that isn't code, motorcycles, guns, or my cat almost to the point of pathology, but I understand and respect your decision to avoid them nonetheless. Because I understa

I get random writes on the order of 5-10 mb/s at best on a typical server we use for our databases. My macbook pro I upgraded with a gaming grade SSD gets 100-200 mb/s random write. Just upgrading to SSDs is more viable than hacking up a da

You're a good contributor to this community, so this is a kind of one-off deal and frankly I'm surprised I have to say this but: Say what you're going to say. Mean what you say and don't watch your karma. If you weren't willing to say it in

I'm sure they know how to get one, and whatever reason they have for not getting one, you've not addressed. Given those circumstances, refrain from responding if you aren't going to be genuinely helpful. Nobody likes a comment from the pean

I know a couple fund guys, and one in particular runs a really aggressive fund. His example sort of presents an exception to what you're saying, but it mostly doesn't for reasons you'll see in a moment. I can't really discuss his strategies

I have an air-to-air missile and a minigun firing 20mm rounds at 6,000 rpm that beg to differ. Regardless of pressure, you could turn the entire aircraft into swiss-cheese or blow a hole in it so large you could fly a jet through it in seco
