You could try Edwin, based on Scheme. Yi, in Haskell. Good luck.

When Canada wanted novel ritual for their engineering schools, they hired Rudyard Kipling. He adapted the story of Martha, Mary’s sister. The Masons too fictionalized the story of Solomon’s Temple. I think the OA could do worse than to hire

Micro donations? I think this is implemented by the legislature in the building code. If you’d like to run a restaurant, you must have restrooms with N urinals and M stalls per space of occupancy. Each restroom must contain K sinks per f

My answer is about network effects and something like Metcalfe’s Law. If I spin the dial and find something, I should find it interesting and comprehensible. If half of transmissions are encrypted, I can’t even get the thrill of reading hal

TLS specifically does not prevent a passive eavesdropper from telling what compressed video you’re watching. If they can drop a few packets and force you to rebuffer, they can tell very quickly—plausibly faster than you can tell watching th

Approximately: because browsers already have good HTTP parsers built in, and that seems safer than trying a new fast binary parser.

They don’t. You, the end user, do. They’re selling you a tool to do that.

This is a tricky question to turn off. It’s rarely clear how to construct an attack with it, and it does allow a kind of privacy by telling your ISP & DNS providers one name, while asking for another.

I feel the same way about Opus Mangum: I have all the achievements for Sigmar’s Garden, and am a third of the way through the “real” game. Also, these games work great with Steam Link from elsewhere in the house—no beefy GPU required.

The simplest system I know to mask destination IP is an anonymizing mixnet. Tor is a good approximation: delegate your privacy to a system design. A CDN, or what Google’s doing with signed exchanges, is a bad approximation: delegate your pr

Oh, thank goodness. I consume a relatively large amount of such content, and I can read twenty good articles in the time it takes to watch one video. Do you think I can get them to ban video game walkthroughs?

Oof. This is an important contribution about the handshake and resumption protocols, but the abstract is badly misquotable. I worry this will lead to problems as it’s reported elsewhere. TLS 1.3 doesn’t encrypt the SNI, doesn’t encrypt the

I don’t see how encryption is required there. Strong cryptographic authentication, yes—but that could be as easy as an HMAC with a key shared offline. The HIPAA information is a great example of what should be kept off the amateur bands, ex

I remember Flight Simulator making a lot of news in the Fall of 2001, and then Microsoft seemed to let it go dormant for a while. Maybe they didn't want more news stories like that.

This is fantastic work, and sets the problem out with high resolution and clear contrast. Pity the stand costs so much.

It’s great against mistaken API clients. Murphy is the most frequent adversary I encounter.

This is similar to a problem with exercise studies: they under-dose in intensity and volume, and are then surprised that nothing much helps.

No. The atmosphere gives the yellowish tinge by scattering blue. The sun looks white from outside it, emitting strongly all the colors we can see. The strongest emissions are near green.
