Many vendor IPMI is so fiendishly hard to isolate from untrusted networks (or even networks in general) that it almost has to be an intentional backdoor.

Bitcoin's proof of work uses SHA-256(SHA-256(x)). Combining that with your figures reduces the differences to well within minutia of how you count bit operations and exactly which tradeoff the circuits make.

The fundamental business model for these companies is to get everyone else beyond themselves or a small closed oligopoly from having control over these tools.

> That is a odd statement since the people that designed Wayland are, by and large, the same people that maintained Xorg. Which prominent wayland developers were maintainers of Xorg in 2004?

Quite the opposite. Wayland&Gnome are designed for tablets, phones, and barely laptops. Any usability on Desktop/Workstations is pure accident. Consider even the login screen-- it does nothing unless you do a completely inexplic

Make it your goal to trip up the machines, then when its losing its mind it's a victory rather than an embarrassment.

Flash seems to lose its charge a lot faster than that, -- I found ordinary SSDs left in a closet for two years to be full of errors while matched sibling drives left in running systems were fine.

AFAICT the way most 'recovery' places work is that they'll recover data if there are no issues and any ordinarily skilled IT tech could also recover it. And then otherwise they'll claim it's unrecoverable. Sometim

I've also found meshtastic to be pretty ineffectual, in both urban enviroments and in totally rural ones where my devices are the only devices for >50 miles. I've given more study to the latter, and I think it's the lack

sadly the demo is not so impressive as they make it out to be: The extra-path light is 'caused' by exit diffraction of the light source. Now, the same underlying theory also explains why there will always be diffraction from any

The simplex algorithm is exponential in the worst case, in spite of the fact that it performs very well 'on average'.

The np-completeness of it is often not very relevant for practical concerns, as the parent post was mentioning. There are many applications with an underlying technically np-complete problem for which optimal solutions are easily found for

Ending up with visible timing side channels where there otherwise wouldn't be ones though is not an awesome tradeoff. Like... vulnerable to NSA vs vulnerable to everyone? The former is probably preferable. And as you say-- the RISC-V

Right but with cloud services, you can't control their retention and settings to not retain almost always do retain but deny you access to it. They'll still serve it up in a subponea even when they won't give it to you.

An interesting demonstration of relativism is that we might use the same phrase, say "brutally killed", to describe a players dominance in a friendly game of monopoly as we would for a Somali warlord firing a round through the hea
