   Note within the domain of this problem was the point. Which means on the same machine, with the same architecture and both ends being C which is what the init system is written in. You are adding more problems that don't exist to the s

   Using an equation to represent this is dishonest. It assumes linearity and proportionality between variables which may not be the case. Also none of the terms are really measurable. You might as well write statements instead. I mean try def

    I don't have any formal data to prove this available without losing anonymity and probably getting sued by my employer but the introduction of them at my organisation correlates directly to a measurable rise in bugs and incidents. From

    I wonder if this is a legal issue if they bypass HDCP and record or snapshot content from a privileged domain?
