Depends on how amazon's lawyers looked at it. I suspect they assumed that section 230 of the CDA, and the DMCA would cover them. However because physical paper copies are being generated that voids both the protections provided by both

A complicated mix of Trade Secret, Patents, and Domain knowledge are the primary issues. I'm really hoping Boeing/Ford/GM/<big company that manufactures vehicles>/Tesla will buy out a couple of the manufacture

These are my uses for unconditional noexcept, they are not all encompassing but they work for me, in all cases the exception guarantee of the code should be noted: * Code that will never throw an exception * Code where throwing an unanticip

no, bit wise is logical there. I'm thinking it was duplicates or primes or some such.

I don't recall the exact question, but I recall they were only looking for the answer that used bit manipulation. Which was not necessarily intuitive in the context.

I wish I could, but it's been three years so I don't recall specifics. I do recall the last pair asked me to re-implement a java standard library functionality that was rather complex. It seemed out of place for an interview quest

This was in 2013 so it's out of date now, but it was very clear from the line of questions and the attitudes of the interviewers that they were being made to be there and saw no point. They were in general completely disengaged with me

I'm glad you're fixing it, but having been through a second round interview where I was flown out to Amazon in Seattle. I will still never interview with Amazon again. It was the second most frustrating interview I've ever be

At least two is the best answer I can give without specifying a specific libc and architecture. Something to think about is that the binary size of libc is only half the story. Even if the executable portion of libc fits in a single page. A

by leeter 10y ago
Unless the binary size exceeds VM page size this has no real value even in the unshared case. Because the OS is still going to have to map a full page for the executable to be loaded into. That said techniques to allow a binary to fit under

by leeter 10y ago
Because the code that knows how to call the VDSOs is in libc, and how VDSOs work is very architecture dependent. Not saying you couldn't in theory do it. But at that point you might as well just load libc.

by leeter 10y ago
So a few things to consider in regards to point 1: * Your executable is going to be loaded as a whole page regardless of how large it is, on most platforms this means you'll need at least 4k of User VM. * You'll need a page table,

by leeter 10y ago
A few thoughts: * The space savings are moot as other processes such as the daemons are going to load libc into virtual memory anyway, and the kernel shares libc's page among all processes. * This adds a lot of LOC you have to maintain

I suspect you're right, that said Yahoo has lost all respect from me after they've basically turned over everything without question after Mayer became CEO. In all honesty it's very hard to tell because the challenges are sec

Actually MS was the one to first challenge National Security Letters. Moreover if it was found out that they had left a back door in it would result in the loss of billions of dollars in business, from Europe alone. Whereas Kaspersky very c

tbf... almost all of WinSXS is hardlinks, there is very little actual duplication. It's just that explorer doesn't understand that and reports it as duplication.

The recommendation for windows is hopelessly out of date. On Vista and up CryptGenRandom is exported directly from Advapi32. That said... just use the CNG functions (BCryptGenRandom[1]), which is what both RtlGenRandom and CryptGenRandom us
