So where's the $15k super machine for today? I'd absolutely look to pay that for something with a similar advantage over a MacBook Pro.

I'm not so sure of that. For example, it's not clear that Congress has the authority to create NSLs, a sort of not-a-warrant. It's not clear that they can issue gag orders like this. Even if they could do these things with

The UAP-AC-PRO and its generation support ZHO. Set up a new VLAN group and you'll see the option.

Do those sorts of differences in early publishing predict later success—say, in attracting grants or top grad students, when you adjust for the benefits of being at a top school? If not, maybe it doesn't matter which is hired, as wi

I've worked with SELinux professionally since 2002. The whole point of mandatory access controls is to NOT take the config file as gospel: rather, there are security goals we want to achieve even in the face of compromised daemons, or

Maxes out at 50-100 Mbps, depending on packet size. Wifi-USB-CPU-USB-Ethernet for every packet.

Those machines cost $10-$30k, and require cleaning every few hours (minimum wage, only significant skill is the diligence to do it) and maintenance every few days or weeks by a steam plumber. The operator/button pusher is a little bit

Also, you're giving up half your antenna-seconds for that. I tried it and was not happy—the hardwired performance is generally great, though.

Microsoft's LS-6000. I liked it so much I bought a second for my spouse. The outgoing sound quality is very good, the ear cups are tolerable for hours, and it doesn't keep me from hearing a phone ring in the next room. For use wit

They had a bunch of special purpose chips that make emulation hard---both computationally intensive, and finnicky around details. For example, a real NES will glitch differently when many sprites are on the same row. Some games depend on th

I suspect we'll see cheap storage before modular storage. If there's 64 GB onboard and nearly as fast as RAM, it's easier to live with the rest of the world being on the other side of a USB interface.

If there will always be crap out there, everyone's going to need an immune system. Long term, we can wish for a fancy adaptive one. In the short term, we probably just get an analogue to inflammation---something like the DDoS network s

Bounty programs are very noisy. I don't even have a bug bounty program, and have several messages from confused people in my inbox asking about one. The "bugs" they propose are not bugs in my programs---for example, one rep

Sounds like someone who doesn't need a pro machine: doesn't use the SD slot, so not a photographer. Doesn't use ESC, so not a heavy terminal user. Doesn't need RAM for VMs or for 4K The docks are a good solution for loca

Half of the typing control system is fixed: proprioception, reflexes for stopping finger extensions when you hit something. Keyboards designed to work well with that system---the hand and brain---let a user type more rapidly and more surely

Light, yes, because every g of space is another g I can carry. But I don't know anyone who's constrained on compressible volume when traveling. (he says with a 3 day trip packed into the Brain Bag beside him)

It's 5-10 person-years of work, depending on where you draw the finish line, "just" to do something like BoringSSL. miTLS is at least five times that, and even there I'm assuming you start with people like Bhargavan and

a) He's a troll. Look at his patterns around specific requests: he asks for something (an operator, an example), and when one's shown that doesn't count. His messages aren't signed with his name. It's textbook

Could be! But someday we'll want to turn off the 1.2 handshake, so better that we deal with some of the version intolerance now.

Much better PDF search. Swift 3. Clipboard sharing for people for whom iOS is a productivity system. PiP for entertaining the kid in the lap of the power user.

That was a thing, for a while: ALGOL, COBOL, a few others had alternate keyword sets for non-English languages.

I know a couple reasons for a backdated cert. Here's one that is easy to explain: backdated clients + emergencies. At least one in a million client devices is backdated by more than three days. It is therefore prudent to wait until a w

Why is Kerberos ticket forwarding better than agent forwarding? Either way, root (or a bad .bashrc) can use your credentials while you're logged in.

But you still need them in a Blockchain world, and still need to trust them.

He even has a working certificate---just for a different name. It sounds like Hunt expects to not see much interception and manipulation at the "backbone." My own experience suggests that such is common at national borders, and b

The example text about the y combinator looks mistaken to me. It says Y can "find" a fixpoint, and sketches an example of a fixpoint in a numerical function. It implies Y is doing something like convergence. But that's not wh

IAPs do not share within a family. That's a big problem maintaining five or ten devices.
