I really like Crockford's JS version, JSCheck [0]. [0] https://github.com/douglascrockford/JSCheck

by oso2k 10y ago
This was Crockford's attempt at making JS secure in browsers before his seif project. In theory, this would work well but requires developers to use the adsafe plugin of jslint to ensure their web apps are safe. Caja is Mark Miller&#x

A little self promotion but mostly because it addresses some of the other commenters concerns about malloc (or the lower-level api around sbrk): a couple years ago I wrote rt0 [0], a small (mostly minimal) C runtime for i386 & amd64 tha

This was called DOS but was deemed not sufficient for people who wanted multi-tasking.

Very little if anything about booting DOS from usb has changed. U/EFI is about it and that usually rules out DOS.

FFF would say that you release a new part number. But, it does not say how you name your part. So, you can essentially use a SemVer technique to indicate the same family of functionality with some sort of indication non-compatibility.

It's actually been done (IMO) and done for several decades. In Manufacturing, they have the 'Form, Fit or Function' "Rule" [0]. In essence, your have only a two segment part number, and the 2nd part is considered

I hear your argument, but then why not release your previous year returns? Presumably, those have already been audited.

At least for me, there is a distinction between a Phone Home capability and a Backdoor.

This is a good start. Could be made a bit more minimal. I'll throw my base Makefile into the fray [0]. It supports cross compilation, CFLAGS & LDFLAGS usage, dependency file generation, source file autodetection (add the file to r

For a single licensed installation, over $7k per year for SAS. Every add-on/package increases price as well. What we're charged is inline with [0]. [0] https://www.quora.com/How-much-does-SAS-cost

Besides using only base 10 representation, 1) all numbers are exact even if there are multiple representations. 2) because of 1), .1 + .2 = .3, eg, arithmetic follows the same rules you learned in school for 4 function arithmetic. 3) It su

In the U.S. $0.20 per kWhr is a more common rate.

Same here on the availability front. I really wish that production run would finish up.

Pre-school is still considered "optional" if you "make too much money" (at least in Los Angeles County & Ventura County). My daughter was denied access to pre-school even when my wife would only enter her income, my

Definitely at CSULA. It's taught in OS, Multiprocessing in CS undergraduate, and in Multimedia and Networking in EE/CE at the grad level.

Thank you for proving my point gambiting. @forrestthewoods, asset baking is already 50-200% of the gambiting's non-Retail workflow build time. This is before PGO. Ask him, if had to choose between reducing his build time 10% (without

It's not that results are unimpressive, but the market has dictated faster compile times. When a PGO compilation is an order of magnitude slower, for the 90% of applications out there where the extra 5-25% improvement means less than a

Many compilers will iterate the so called classical optimizations until they produce no effect (an iteration where no optimization took place) or some artificial limit (say 4 or 8 iterations through a basic block or a function). At some po

Default is too strong of a word. If you meant that it can be installed from the FD 1.1 Install CD, then you are correct.
