The second generation iPhone was the first as you know them today. The first was a glorified iPod Touch with a cellular radio stack. In fact, aside from the better touch-friendly screen, the iPhone was a step backwards from Windows CE/

How does Clojure or ClojureScript do as they are built on top of JVM/CLR or JavaScript? I'm assuming that since they fall back to many of the primitives of their respective runtimes that they use their implementations.

If you could, it would create an attack vector. From a security point, it's the right way to do things.

If society wasn't so prudish about naked bodies, it'd be less of a problem. It's one of those shoot the hostage situations. We could defuse a lot of our concerns if we'd relax our self imposed constraints and it would gi

As with many things, time has a way of changing our perspectives. No, Office formats would not have been competitive on earlier machines if they used a lexer/parser. Office documents weren't really documents in as much that they w

Ex post facto. It's been a "standard" long before the RFC, so there are many CSV documents which need to be read but don't confirm to the RFC spec. You should create a CSV writer that conforms, but your reader needs to s

Pretty much how I started cracking game copy protections in the late 80's/early 90's. I already owned the games I was cracking, it just became more interesting to me how these protections were implemented and how I'd def

It was still a little different. It isn't just about building the tools and making them run. It is the environment that comes with it so you can follow any number of recipes you find online to get your development environment up and ru

There are two entirely different narratives there when you view Java. Microsoft's implementation was a better, faster, and fully compliant JVM with what Sun was making. An application written for Sun's implementation ran on Micros

As is noted, this was from 2013. I've worked at MS on and off over the years. I only have my perspective, but it is a little different than the posting. While there are certainly things I wish were better, I'm actively doing my pa

This is important. It isn't the same as them possessing the key. They still require physical access and of course with physical access, all bets are off.

Would UWA's be vulnerable? This seems like a good reason to abandon Win32 APIs anyway. If each process can be sandboxed from an executable's perspective, it should reduce the risk. If the number of UWP/UWA apps are the majori

How weird to think about only knowing English at that level. Even when I learned another language, it was conversational. I hadn't really given it a lot of thought about if you only knew the technical words. I can see how that would be

But you still can't use the Cast button from your phone to launch on those devices. My Xbox One shows me the option for YouTube videos, but nothing else. There isn't a one-stop option right now.
