P2P-sharing would be a really great solution to this from the malware developer's point of view. I don't harbor any ill-will towards malware devs, especially not when they're going after windoze machines :^) But yeah, the cur

I'm sure you can mind my own business for me, maybe I should even let you write my next comment? Would you like to see my papers?

You are the type of person I was hoping not to encounter! The kool-aid drinkers. I don't like Clojure or ClojureScript. They are both awful by virtue of the platform they exist on. I would like very much if Clojure had a core lisp KLam

Q: Is Clojure bootstrapped on something other than JS or JVM or CLR? A: No, and don't waste your time on this talk if you already have watched any of Rich Hickey's talks, this is an ego-stroke at best that introduces no new soluti

Could something like this be contained in a box, so that each of the sides has these on it? That way instead of just working laterally, and from the bottom, things could be done from multiple angles. For example, solving a rubiks cube via

If they have special-purpose hardware specially designed for cracking primes, maybe bigger isn't better, right? What can end-users be doing about this?

Wouldn't this be easy to subvert, though? I mean, say we put through a few patches and started generating primes more often. Then there big-ass special purpose prime machine becomes an order of magnitude less-effective, right? I think

None so far, at least that I've seen. I saw the slides and everything when they were first discussing this, but I havent seen any docs for actually using it yet. Good things take time, though. You might also try the irc, I'm away
