an ATTiny45 microcontroller, and a couple of passive elements can get you the USB circuitry for under $5 - e.g. http://stuffthingsandjunk.blogspot.com/2009/06/attiny45-usb-... I've used the V-USB library in a couple of fun projects - it's

There is I think a very interesting idea here - that an excessive "greed" for growth, if unbalanced, actually pushes the service faster time-wise over the lifecycle than it'd go if it were exploited more carefully. This can be excessive ads

Once again - "addressability != accessibility". I think the benefits of being able to reference the host even if for abuse tracking, or netflow cross-correlation, etc. - outweigh the obscurity advantages of NATs. If I were concerned to have

The brilliant and problematic property of the translation (and why I think it will catch up) is that it allows to easily make your today's problems someone else's problems five years down the road. Noone gives a ding about what happens in f

addressability != accessibility Lots of folks get this mixed up. Anyway, arguing about NATs is a bit like arguing of vi vs emacs - it's a great pastime. http://blog.ioshints.info/2012/04/ipv6-legends-and-myths-mor... has a good collection

for the comments: that's a matter of taste, IMHO. for bitwise ops: look at 5.2, it has it now. 32-bit operations. floating point arithmetic: in practice, I haven't seen it as a problem as soon as I stay within the 32-bit range - then the nu

I had instinctively clicked on the images at the top before going to the textures. Might have been nice to catch these (ED: clicks) (or maybe even hover ?) and highlight them (ED: images at the bottom) in something like the "MacBook sleep l

These macros are nothing compared to what I consider a real abuse of the preprocessor - a whole functional language implemented just by that! Search for "chaos-pp" in this entry (which has plenty of other wonders too!): http://stackoverf

As someone who had to single-step through this kind of code in gdb, and who had to use the series of fgreps because the cscope is not smart enough to digest these constructs, I can only suggest - weigh the pros and cons before using this te

It is intuitively obvious that it is better to be rich and healthy than poor and ill. Sadly, the reality choices are neither. And you can not just split a repo. Hearing some ideas for that case would have been interesting. Solving a scaling

Do you happen to know how translate.google.com deals with this problem ?

Why ? I've already paid with my attention to the mails that I did not need. But more than that - in more than one case my attempt to unsubscribe gave zero results. Once I even had an exchange with a human person, who promised "oh of cours

I would agree with AznHisoka. Periodic mails are like shouting in the room to gain attention. When everyone else is quiet, it works like a charm. The others pick up this trick. Soon no-one can hear anything, and those who do not want to be

Oh if they use the close direct, too bad. But libraries that launch the starships behind your back with no control left to you are also not the best gift. Standard's bug aside, I wonder how the practical implementations behave. Is this cond

What about wrapping the first solution into a mutex lock ? Then the multithreaded behavior will disappear. And closing the fd might not be the most frequent operation usually so should not have much of performance impact.

I only wanted to speculate about possible reasons. Maybe there was something else - does not matter, really. On the other hand, ditching your rounds with the subsequent interviewers just because you became emotional about one of them does m

Thanks for the clarification. This makes it entirely possible to spoof someone's address then by a third party.

If governments were to do that, they would also be forced to solve the problem of the routing table explosion. Which is a hard problem. As for unique ID - it's already doable and being done without any IPv6. Read up on evercookie. There was

This is very practical and RFC3489 ( http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3489.txt ) has a definition for this - "Port Restricted Cone NAT". For the reference to some of the port restricted NATs, take a look at http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-jenni

If you do layer 4 network address translation (NAT) - then a single IPv4 address can theoretically be used by circa 64000 people at the same time; depending on how multiplexing is done, by maybe even more. The large-scale translators on the

Absolutely. i got your TCP segment with data on your WIFi, and sent a TCP RST from a location with the lower overall latency - so both your SSL connection got reset. While you hit "reload", I establish the connection and login. Your attempt

Exactly - because all of those solutions do not take into the account the possible active keylogger which might interfere with the "authentication code". In fact I think here in Belgium there was an incident where chunks of money were stole
