If you're willing to go a bit further you can also do GPG signing with ECDSA, though it requires a patched GPG due to bugs and a patched SSH agent that allows raw signing. We have a packaged version with a macOS UI [0], but the same b

There is a good reason though, right? My understanding is that local ordinances require very frequent window inspections (following a highly publicized death), so to perform those inspections they need the scaffolding to protect the under-

I had a fun bug where bash would run scripts out of order! This would lead to impossible states, like if cat foo | false; then echo hmm; fi Producing output sometimes, depending on whether or not `cat foo` or `false` return value was used [

In Linux it also needs mprotect() to change the permissions on the page so it can write it. The OpenBSD man page[0] indicate that it supports this as well, though notes that not all implementations are guaranteed to allow it, but my guess

It's more like doing Linux services the UNIX(TM) way since it's more similar to other UNIX service managers like SMF from Solaris or SRC from AIX in the integration -- NT's service manager requires an active event loop which

AppFS (my project) and CERN VMFS do this, if I understand you correctly.

As a hiring manager you are being paid to do that work, while the job-seeker is doing it on speculation. These are not equal positions, even though your falsely equate them. Think about this: If you are not externalizing the costs, why not

You are wrong. It improves the efficiency for the company at the expense of all of the people who spent time applying for something other than what was stated. For example, you could not tell them that you would or would not hire them after

I think the protocol on which PDUs are exchanged on is a bit orthogonal to the PDU protocol itself here, but the split-mode networking protocols (FTP, IRC DCC, mosh, SIP, etc) always do end up getting less used because establishing two diff

FWIW, ASN.1 BER supports an indefinite length encoding (though DER does not; ASN.1 JSON and ASN.1 XML do as well)

Or an ASN.1 DER encoded sequence -- ASN.1 is more common than CBOR (being in a lot of PKI stuff) and there are already generators for DER (or JSON or XML...) for a given schema.

The logic seems clear to me: if you want people to be able to make use of/benefit from your published knowledge/artifacts you would want people to be able to find it when they are searching for that kind of published knowledge&#x

FWIW, how I read the article it was just an implementation of the original Redis, but with some other language (and this types) than Tcl. Redis is/was basically just Tcl-typed which are persisted to disk using snapshots (Tcl commands)

I see this comment often, but when I implemented SAML, the spec wasn't too unreadable... I did write my own IdP [0] instead of using something that existed though, since those were more complicated than I needed. So maybe because I on

From what I understand, it didn't look like that when most users signed up -- it looked like a gimmicky bank account with a savings account that a portion of the interest was invested in a lotto-style system, so you were earning slight
