I'm using the new Dell XPS 13 Developer's Edition, without the touch screen. I've found build quality to be a step up for Dell, but still a bit flimsy especially around the cover of the monitor. I like that it's pre-vet

What do you mean run Ubuntu in a Chrome tab? Is this a full virtual machine?

A lot of their speed comes from special tricks like bypassing the kernel and going direct to hardware (DPDK). Intel's DPDK doesn't support Mac OS X. You should probably develop in a VM anyways, or at least with a platform + hardwa

This is actually the most stressful part of dinner. Along with splitting a bill fairly. Of course I can do it, but when I'm talking with people I'd rather do it much faster with less likelihood of a mistake.

I see what you're saying...kind of like an AI or an "automation" tool/framework for backup. I was focusing on the lower-level building blocks.

Problem with Snebu: it only does file-level deduplication I think which means storing something like virtual machine snapshots or images will not deduplicate well. You need block-level deduplication to work well with things like VM images

My experience with attic (seems to be a trend with all of your dedup reviewed systems) is that it also takes a very long time to restore large amounts of data _however_ you have the option of restoring individual files via a FUSE file syste

As some commenters mentioned, a meta-backup system that can manage multiple different ingest methods would be Deltaic: https://github.com/cmusatyalab/deltaic

So a metatool that is flexible in terms of backup ingest? Almost like backup plugins? Check out Deltaic, designed precisely for this: https://github.com/cmusatyalab/deltaic

With TCP_REPAIR, presumably they could...but both ends need to implement the REPAIR option I think, so maybe not in practice yet. Or if the SDN of your cloud is good enough, even TCP_REPAIR might not be needed!

Precisely. Also perhaps why Telegram didn't respond. This is an OS-/device-level attack---not an app exploit/attack.

by theonewolf 12y ago
Yeah...it doesn't feel like a true vulnerability...feels like just padding the "vulnerability" counter :p

by theonewolf 12y ago
Perhaps because the attacks/exploits were more against the device/OS and not against the app itself? It is unsurprising that text can be found unencrypted in memory---even while during rendering it has to be decrypted somewhere. T

As others have chimed in, while working extremely well for _libraries_, which I believe Semantic Versioning was really proposed for in the first place anyways, it does not work or necessarily make sense for Kernels which are kind of a very

Yes, "ridding the world" of the GPL is a bit too strong of a stance to take. Almost like a knee-jerk reaction. I think it would be better to catalog the licenses into categorical types so that we could then more intelligently dec

Oh this isn't an organizational webpage. This is the web page of an individual (a researcher). As another commenter said, he is focused a lot more on research than building websites ;-) If anyone would like to help put together a nice

I think for things like WiFi networks this could help immensely. Extremely long tail latencies are observed which reach a second or more in those networks when some interference causes loss. It would be much better to react quicker than the

They actually claimed/stated that if you want these features, go code them yourself.

Everything always goes away, given a long enough timeline. You might believe it will last your lifetime, and that is semi-reasonable given our short generational lifespans. But I find it hard to believe in any engineered by human hands sy

Also, please describe the technical details better---maybe eventually having a whitepaper showing some performance graphs with different workloads? Criticizing you from a pulpit is easy, kudos to you if you fix things up over time :-)

Basic math issues and vague description of the technique make me worry about the technical veracity of the described approach. I am also worried about fairness: do SuperTCP streams muscle out other streams? Is that how they grab all the ban

But it does involve command-line bullshittery which is more what the article is about. The article isn't bemoaning the state of programming languages or their tooling necessarily---more all the steps to get a programming language toolc

@jeffbarr I just wanted to say thanks for not only posting this, but also sticking around in the comments section. Makes you + Amazon seem way more human :-) Also, in case you have any "cloud servers" you want to decommission: h

Actually I think Lua is a great candidate because of its openness and its similarity to C (predominant systems OS programming language). Lua is open, as their about page ( http://www.lua.org/about.html ) states: Lua is free

Totally agree, as a hobby eBay is fine. I avoided these guys (and others like them) because of the premium cost on top.
