The Debian security team doesn’t patch packages from the non-free repository, like the 7-Zip RAR support: https://www.debian.org/security/faq#contrib That would have to wait for the maintainer to upload a new version a

The Wikipedia page doesn’t really give any impression of what it’s like to program in RPG with SEU, and with SDA. I wouldn’t say they’re very close to using vi or Emacs at all. I have very bad memories of STOS BASIC, mostly around how very

I'm more interested in the non-PASE (more accurately, non-Teraspace) situation. The single level store maps every program into the same address space. Will POWER speculatively access another user's data before it discovers that

Some of those programs would have been Java programs, where java.exe is modern, but the program is not. The definition of os.name in Java makes checking the string prefix particularly likely.

The change is a bit disappointing, in a way. Though I'm not sad to see the last of CRTJVAPGM.

IBM i Java used to run on top of TIMI. But the runtime overhead and IBM developer overhead were too high, and now it runs on top of PASE, which implements the AIX runtime without involving TIMI.

Take it with a grain of salt because it's years since I used it, but the Jetty HTTP Client has a fluent API and can be used completely asynchronously. It doesn't use CompletableFuture, but it works with Java 8 lambdas and wouldn&#

Weren't there also (alleged) patents on arithmetic coding back then? Huffman coding had that as an advantage, too, especially when GNU were looking for an alternative to Unix' compress program.

It sounds like what you're thinking of has been included in the Brotli compression algorithm, which uses a relatively large initial dictionary. There are similar ideas with a more limited scale in HTTP/2's HPACK algorithm for
