So an attacker able to write to memory would be able to elevate into the ability to... write to memory. That doesn't sound particularly worrisome.

Well - in C, you can use macros as well as in Lisp. Classically, you'd use X-Macros, requiring a separate file to hold the list of bytecodes; in the modern style you can use Boost.Preprocessor to operate on preprocessor data structures

The Lorentz factor here is 1/sqrt(3/4), around 15% over unity. So the elapsed time for you to see the flare is 2/1.15 * 26ky, or 45 ky. In general, for any λ multiple of c, the elapsed time multiple is sqrt(1 - λ^2) / (1

Similarly, but I dot my zeros to distinguish them from the null / empty-set symbol ∅ (and from the Scandinavian Ø).

And she is working to improve NZ women's access to reproductive rights, but they're still well behind what should be expected of a civilized country.

This feels a lot like profile-guided optimization - it can't be much of a step from PGO observing that a branch is never taken during profiling and so marking the not-taken path cold, to eliminating the not-taken path (and the branch t

Only if his obligation to you is transferable - that is, if you can freely pass it onto another person, and then the debt is owed to that other person. For example, he could write you an IOU for one dollar, and then you could give that do

Knowing how to find out which side the fuel cap is is very much not mostly useless if you hire regularly; it saves considerable time and effort knowing you can just look at the gauge as you pull into the fuel station.

Completely incorrect. Rolling resistance is largely independent of speed, and drag is quadratic in speed. 55mph represents a speed where drag dominates rolling resistance.

Note also that it has only recently been established that water vapor emitted at cruising altitude has an unexpectedly long residence time and thus an unexpectedly high GWP, perhaps as much as the CO_2 emitted, thus doubling the impact over

By the time you write a linter, you've done more than half of the work of a compiler, at which point you might as well just ship it as a compiler. It's a bit different for clang, which is modular and provides libraries that tool w

The price of energy and the energy intensity of an economy are not the same thing. This is because the price of energy is the cost at the margin: the cost of producing one additional unit of energy. Since a rational economy exploits cheap

No, since the early array copies are on smaller arrays they take far less than O(n) time. The total time in copies is 1 + 2 + 4 + ... + 2^m + ... 2^(floor log2 n), which equals 2^(ceil log2 n) - 1, or O(n).
