The system, probably by design but also to limit capacity requirements for the server, is ephemeral, everything only exists in the moment and once everyone leaves the channel it ceases to exist, once your connection breaks your nick ceases

It’s just a calculation, surely TSMC knows about these rates ahead of time. In my opinion it’s just a way for TSMC to give themselves a big bonus if they manage to improve yields.

So now container decoders have been magically vetted and secured so they don’t need the sandbox. Which is quite surprising considering most vulnerabilities in streams are in the container decoders and their multitude of hardly used features

The container format would be decoded by a sandboxed codec that can be found by decoding the container? WebAssembly codecs indeed exist, and they are impractical due to a lack in performance.

Wetransfer is exactly made for this purpose. Or if you have Apple and the file is not larger than 5GB, it’s sent through Mail Drop which does the same thing but seamless.

Yes, and you can also download a million projects like this, the sandbox exists. But my suggestion would be that you build a video codec out of it. Preferably one that has the properties the market demands: performance and energy efficiency

So what do you suggest doing to turn it into ‘many smaller chicken coops’ and how is it more secure?

If you assume you just say the magic word ‘sandbox’ and everything is safe, then yes, security is a solved problem. This is however a prime example of the saying that in theory, there is no difference between theory and practice but in prac

You know you can actually bring fuel to a plane and refuel it wherever it is? And that’s probably the answer to the first question, it can be done but you you have to have someone who knows what he’s doing think outside the box a little.

We used to have formats like this, and then the attacker points to his decoder/malware package. Apart from that of course the decoder has to be fast and thus native and interface with the OS, so the decoder is X86 on the today version

Apple has to make sure you can’t make Siri give the offensive answers AI is famous for. Apple sells quality, they are always under a magnifying glass and they can’t play by the same rules Google can.

If the applet chooses to expose such a method; reflection is about finding out what methods are exposed. And while Java had plenty of security holes applets were definitely not supposed to have a lot of access to your computer.

These people follow different rules. Famously, Steve Jobs used a rule that allows a car to be driven without a license plate if it is newer than 6 months, and he just got a new one every 6 months to never have license plates.

These players work in a perhaps surprising way, they emulate the complete machine to run the part of the original code that programs an emulated SID chip. So it’s not like MIDI or something where the storage is a stream of commands in seque
