There is (most likely) no perfect isolation. If given no alternatives, a kernel should burn down rather than permitting a privilege escalation. Ideally there is no privilege escalation either. Given bad input the kernel should not fault but

Ideally the browser and curl only use a local resolver, on your machine or router, which in turn can use a steadily alive or even multiple alive connections to the resolver.

I don't want anyone preloading anything on my mobile connection other than the absolute necessary. Period. Everything else wastes my bandwidth and I don't care that it is only 100kb, my monthly, effective datacap is about 50MB and

I'd say no, though it depends on the provider. Afaict the vulnerability is simply "users can upload arbitrary certs and have the server use them based on SNI", which does have some legitimate use cases (private CA)

Preloading website content is not what I want for my phone. I have a very low datacap and I go out of my way to disable AMP and preloading because web publishers believe that my bandwidth can be used freely by them in an effort to "red

There is plenty of evidence that there are genetic differences in how the brain is build up between men and women [0]. Several studies have also found that as early as 3 year old children will develop differences in their cognition; boys wi

That would be preloading assets, not the preloading of entire AMP sites as the GP describes.

I have a very low datacap, I don't want a website to preload anything, I'd rather have a slow load.

I've seen way worse for both, so not really. He's found a way to channel his mental condition into something constructive, something that people enjoy even.

Terry has been writing on TempleOS (and the previous iterations which were mostly name changes) for about 15 years without pause, even Linus takes breaks.

by tscs37 9y ago
Yeah but TempleOS also lacks networking so the house is also in interstellar space completely isolated from burglars trying to steal your stuff. It's a very interesting design, I recommend to atleast play a bit with TempleOS.

The amount of dedication Terry shows for his project is beyond what you see anywhere else in the software dev space. For anyone who hasn't, I recommend to watch his videos on TempleOS (there are a lot of hymn videos or ranting videos,

Reading through the court document [0] makes me deeply concerned. Some of the stated actions, if they turn out to be true, are uncomfortable. I believe that in a modern society like ours, such discrimination should not be necessary, advocat

Preloading instructions into the cache or only executing instructions speculatively which only modify the CPU's internal state and no caches.

I believe several studies have bounded the lower limit of nature vs nurture at about 50% nature, though studies have gone as low at 40% and as high as 80%. http://slatestarcodex.com/2016/03/16/non-shared-envir

The size of a brain usually doesn't mean much, it sets a baseline, somewhat, but the overall structure is much more important compared to volume/size/weight. A difference in brain volume of humans doesn't necessarily imp

You can enforce type checks by writing your own. LISP is rather extensible. People have written Haskell-like type systems for LISP with compile-time checks.

The passive listener case is, IMO, a bit more severe since when several web developers complained after having their websites broken, the chrome devs merely yelled "it's faster!" and there was that. Chrome shouldn't be g

I linked you to an explanatory blogpost from the guy that came up with it since that might clear up things better than me trying to repeat what is said in the blogpost. That prevents me from needlessly repeating content.

I believe the 0.28% are only for CPUs that support PCID. Earlier CPUs (which is a lot still) will get a much harder hit since you'll have to flush the entire TLB.
