Does Microsoft offer favourable treatment or withhold patches when it comes to state level APTs? Can we trust Microsoft to be neutral and offer security patches in a timely manner and defend the interests of their consumer customers above a

How practical is this against an adversary with hardware access? If they can put a vampire tap on the motherboard or CPU pins, won't the alternate code paths pursued by the CPU alert them? Most computers have standardized bootloaders.

This is going to get him banned from India soon if the next Kashmir conflict kicks off. Not the wisest move to intervene in international affairs as a private citizen for cheap PR points.

No, Racket's work for non tail call recursion too. The standard recursive factorial won't overflow in Racket. According to: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30420605

Is this similar to Racket's stack replacement infinite tail recursion mechanism?

I do not know why you are downvoted and flagged. You are perfectly correct, the point of non-proliferation policy is exactly to prevent more states from acquiring such weapons. The agency and rights of non-nuclear owning nations have no bea

Nobody likes seeing Realpolitik in action. When you have been drip fed ideology about the LIO your whole life, it is very difficult to accept anything else. Unfortunately, today Thucydides wakes. It is unfortunate that international relatio

Go can be much, much faster if fast compile times is not focus. A good compiler can probably do some compile-time RAII inlining like C++ and Rust and reduce GC usage without needing any major changes to the core Go language. A lot of the mo

Does iOS not have code splitting? I thought most of iOS app bloat comes from the multiscreen assets. I surprised compiled code takes up so much space.

Go is at about the same abstraction level as Java, maybe a fraction slower due to lack of runtime VM optimisations.

Build a project with enough dependencies and there will always be dependency issues which you will need to fix by forking upstream. For Rust and Go the package manager can trace the codepath and identify conflicting type exports.

I also have complaints about the package manager. A language as new as Flutter shouldn't have significant dependency conflict hell as it is a solved problem. Npm/yarn, cargo, Go are all able to (in most cases) handle conflicting u
