It's about informing Uber's de facto employees that they have liability and must carry appropriate insurance. Should the employee decline to take this responsibility or should Uber fail to appropriately inform their employees, tho

I agree with your overall point but I think your corporation analogy is slightly flawed. To my mind, the appropriate analogy with a corporation is a comparison of citizens to customers rather than employees. That is, the original commenter

In the United States, there is no expectation of privacy while in public. They are not legally obligated to do anything. This doesn't make it any less of an asshole behavior, though. Also, it should not be the onus of each target of yo

Mechanically, yes. Linguistically, no. Despite "Like" only subscribing you, Facebook has given that action a connotation of endorsement by naming the action "Like" which suggests agreeableness, enjoyment, or satisfaction

While I agree with your general point, there has been some recent work < http://www.defensivejs.com/ > on isolation of javascript from the rest of the DOM/session. What's your take on this kind of static ana

No. In the US, you continue to pay your original contract fee (including overpriced handset payment) even after the contract expires. The handset cost is not broken out. After 2 years, the telco expects you to re-up a new 2 year contract an

Too bad Facebook actively punishes third-party client-side software distributions that modify its behavior or function according to user preferences.

Could you elaborate on Scala's TCO support? I was under the impression that only self-tail calls are eliminated and only if the stack trace would be provably unused. Doesn't the JVM require stack traces? Can you use CPS in Scala?
76.
by silentOpen 13y ago
Things Scala lacks which OCaml has: 1. Tail call elimination 2. A full-featured module system 3. Functors (functions at the module level) 4. First-class modules 5. GADTs 6. Polymorphic variants 7. A decidable type system 8. ... more? Things

It's very simple: a free country is run by free software by definition. A free country has published laws that are implemented and debugged (adjudicated) in public. If the FBI wants carriers to install software on their network devices

I believe NSA refers to themselves without the article when the organization's name is abbreviated.

False. I always know when I have been shot by a police officer. I do not always know when my data has been copied even with your assertion of Google's good will. Your conditional of "when Google is legally permitted..." is quite telling (in

Your lexer emits buffer positions which you then put into error/diagnostic messages. Afaict, this tool makes it easier to visualize cursor positions in buffers. Personally, I'm not sure about its approach but it's not an unreasonable goal.

This article talks about spectrum allocation but lacks any details about which frequencies . The closest it gets is "television guard bands". Is this the state of technical governance reporting in a modern, digital society?

You mean a VM instance is a lightweight process? With hardware-assisted virtualization, multiple cores, and no preemption, shouldn't an OS-less VM be lighter than a general-purpose kernel-scheduled process?

by silentOpen 14y ago
Hypervisor overhead for hardware-assisted virtualization is worse than OS-level preemptive threading? Why bother with an OS at all and just run mobile apps in a hypervisor with system service ACLs?

What about hypervisor as microkernel and VM as app? Is this a viable new model for system security?
