yeah, I dont actually know of any smartphones implementing usb 3.x. would be kinda pointless considering the transfer speeds of the actual flash.
New Hampshire, libertarian paradise, has none of those things. And no income tax and low sales tax.
> Yes exactly. The worse case still seems like a doubling of (actual) memory use though: imagine a very sparsely accessed region of memory: even today each access would bring in a whole 4K page (on x86, for example), but now you'd bring in a whole 4K shadow page as well (yes, the access has to be really sparse to get this 1:1 ratio).

In theory you should be partially saved by the allocator, just because it is going to try and place as much stuff as it can into every page it allocates, as well as allocate multiple pages at once (So they all end-up in a row). An allocator that was aware of the 'shadow' pages should be able to allocate chunks of pages at once that correspond to a single 'shadow' page, ensuring you avoid creating tons of them. The higher alignment requirements mean more wasted memory though, meaning you need to allocate more pages and need then need more 'shadow' pages overall.

The paper suggests anywhere between 14% and 18% RAM overhead (discounting Android apps, which had a range from 6% to 42%) for 64 byte granularity, and that it actually goes down if you choose a smaller granularity like 16, due to the lower alignment requirement.

And of course, you're also talking about doubling memory accesses as well, assuming this is done in software. Every access has to first check the 'shadow' page. Unfortunately both of their implementations are at least partially hardware assisted, so I'm not sure you can use those numbers to just a pure CPU implementation, but they suggest around a 2x slowdown.

> I think a 4K granularity is next to useless - you already get that from the hardware/OS paging support. If you want to detect problems on a 4K level, you only need to change your allocator to mmap in a page at a time, which you can even already do on some with tunable ones.

I would agree. The tagging system can prevent a higher percentage of OOB accesses at the page level in theory, but considering the size of the address-space vs the number of allocations (assuming a 64-bit/48-bit address space) I think the likelihood of an OOB access actually hitting another separate allocation (assuming a mostly random placement) is already pretty low, so the tagging system would make it lower (You now have to hit a random allocation with the correct tag) but not significantly lower then before, and at the cost of performance.
more units equals more property taxes for the municipality to pay for services, and more people buying stuff and paying sales tax, and use fees like the $11 BART ticket.
Even if you can't authenticate evidence (chain of custody, disclosure of technical process, etc), you can still use the fruits of the analysis as long as acquisition of the phone wasn't illegal and the fruits can be proven independently after the fact. I imagine that in most situations law enforcement can make their case once information on the phone points them in the right direction, especially in high-profile cases where the government would spend a lot of money on a secret process.

Authentication is necessary because the prosecutor has the burden of proof, and part of meeting that burden of proof is making a facially sound case about the authenticity and reliability of each piece of evidence. But unlike, say, an illegal search, failure to meet that burden doesn't poison derivative evidence as long as that evidence is independently submissible.

Importantly, you don't need to authenticate evidence _before_ getting a warrant to take possession of the phone; at least not to the extent required at trial. And as far as I know there are no laws limiting how the government can extract information from a phone it legally possesses for investigatory purposes, which means any technical process would be entirely irrelevant to the legality of the search. So there's no way to force the government to divulge the process as long as they don't try to submit the information gained by that process directly as evidence.

But maybe I'm missing something.
Really appreciate your detailed information. I'm not familiar with Firefox extension system, and I really learn a lot from your reply, thanks :))))

Maybe its time for me to study Firefox devtools and to find if there are something interesting to do :p
I wish they'd make one with less premium content and minimal weight, priced and competitive with something like a GTI or Civic Si.

I'd also like a Civic Type R, but the wait-list on those is just as silly.

They're making great cars, but you have to wait for them.
Extremely competent, perfectionist healthcare. Ideally the money would directly fund studies and the program would offer opportunities to participate in studies as well. Focus should not just be on acute issues, but the smaller quirks that a lot of people have. As an aside, most medical doctors i've encountered have a very bad confidence/merit ratio.

Unfolding the Earth: Myriahedral Projections in WebGL
sure, but manufacturers seem to be uncommonly bad at implementing the new USB 3.x specs, power delivery in particular.

the majority of USB-C cables on sale violate the power delivery spec in important ways.
many, however, effectively all of the smartcard hardware implementations are proprietary. The most open one I can think of is the OpenPGP card which is PC/SC standard compatible. It's sold by Free Software Foundation Europe and is colloquially known as the "foundation" card. However, while the applet source that runs on the Java card is available, I don't know about the firmware or runtime libreness.

It's be really great to have an auditable open source processor/soc design with PC/SC compatible interface and secure enclave implemented in an ISO standard smartcard form factor. Alas, to my knowledge nothing like that exists.

Yubikey designs used to be a lot more open than they are currently (you used to be able to run your own applets, IIRC - with some security compromises, of course). That said, I would still personally use them for non-critical things - it's a really handy form factor.
VESA is still around, and many modern graphics cards support multiple VESA standards (e.g. VESA BIOS Extensions, DisplayPort, EDID).
If Python is interpreted, what’s the pain? Do you mean static compilers like Cython/pybind11/Boost.Python, or JIT compilers?

It still is getting posts, though few and far between. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/alt.sysadmin.recover... . Thats an aspect of the "if no one is there, new people don't stick around when they show up."

As that one slowly became luserish, the both hierarchy was created that had a restricted feed http://bofh.taronga.com/bofh.html - that one is harder to find and as I've been out of sysadmin for some time where I could ask the right person for either a feed or access to their server...

Because housing availability seriously impacts economic and social mobility. It's hard to work one's way out of poverty as it is. It's even harder when the cities with the Lion's share of the jobs hardly build any housing and cause rents to skyrocket as a result.

> I don't know why people in San Diego or NorCal should have a vote about what happens with respect to zoning in Palo Alto or Mountain View. Why not let people in Butte, Montana put in their vote as well?

I'd be totally okay with nation wide housing policies (and I have lived in one of those cities you mentioned, and I currently live in Silicon Valley so I'd be impacted by this change). I think poor housing policies are big drivers of economic immobility, and people everywhere in the country are affected by it. Someone in Montana may not live in San Francisco, but if they have to turn down a job in SF due to insane rents then they are impacted by SF's housing policies. Consequently, if there was a push to ban nativist policies like rent control, proposition 13, or other barriers in the housing market nation wide I would both think it is fair and I'd support it.
I suppose you could go even further with it if they had things like hosting with AWS. With the product information you mentioned and any technical information they could pick up through AWS I'm sure they know exactly what to pay for something. Just gotta hope that an employee doesn't leak it one day.
Americans are Constitutionally entitled to the equal protection of the laws everywhere in America. Cities are not sovereign nations. They don't get to control migration or treat natives preferentially.

While it's nice to govern as locally as possible as a matter of general principle, when cities are hoarding wealth and opportunity and dumping the downside on the larger community, the larger community is right to reconsider the limits of the authority it delegated. Part of what it means to be in the State of California (or the United States of America) is accepting migration from, and influence by, others in that category.
Please re-read the comment you are responding to. The answer is there.
Call me with AMD launches something that supports extended ISA.
the downvotes are probably because it's not usually a polarity issue. the most common issues are with current/voltage negotiations between the charger and device. when this isn't implemented correctly, either the cable or the charger itself (maybe even the device, idk) can erroneously negotiate a power level that is too great for the circuitry to withstand.

you're right that it's not exactly the fault of the USB-C spec, but at the same time, manufacturers would probably not mess it up so much if it were not so complex.

At some point rather recently we made the decision to get rid of all the icky blue collar jobs and replace them with service economy job. The people who protested this change were branded as backwards hicks and their concerns were hand waved away along with promises of retraining.

The gig economy is just more of the same but we get told that wages are rising in other countries so we should be happy, as we subsidize some startup with our cars or our houses. But hey, we are getting rid of the 9 to 5 right?

I bought the first Tivo when it came out, and bought most of them over the years - currently I use an OTA box to record local TV over the air and stream everything else.

The original Tivo was miles ahead of any other alternative, and it pioneered the ability to skip commercials, which was HUGE at the time. The notion of time-shifting was somewhat new as well, it changed how people watch TV before streaming existed by allowing you to watch it whenever you want.

Other recorders existed at the time, but programming them and setting them up was an enormous pain in the butt, while Tivo had a friendly UI.

Over time, the competition has caught up, and Tivo doesn't have that much value over anyone else. CableTV is on the decline, so there's not too much reason to innovate into a shrinking market.

Intent comes into play when you determine the appropriate processing basis; for eg preventing abuse, the basis isn't consent and therefore consent is not required. So GP is partially wrong. If your intent is to use the data for marketing purposes, then you are much more likely to require consent. See LI balancing tests.

My story is kind of similar to yours. I was one of the tallest guys in the class. So, I was put in the back rows and one day I realised I couldn't read the blackboard.

But I stammered too and hence very shy to share this "deficit" with anyone. It continued for a long time before things got worse and couldn't transcribe anything from the blackboard. I started crying so, they called my dad. He took me to a doctor and I got glasses.
The email and FTP features are available on my cameras, but I don’t personally use them. I only included it as an option to use a camera without relying on the vendor’s cloud service and without setting up something like Zoneminder.

Yes I can see how this makes sense, but I wouldn't say it is easier than recursion! Maybe a good exercise, but when traversing a tree the recursive solution is very easy to understand. The iterate solution ...

Then you have other problems, where the recursive solution is actually not super easy to understand why it "works" immediately (think, balanced paren generation) and going on to create an iterative solution, while not insanely hard, is not something super obvious.... what's your condition to stop iteration, again?

Maybe I'm thinking about that the wrong way, I'd love to learn more about it!

That problem is closely related to tree traversal, anyway, I should fool around with those two ideas a bit more to properly understand.
Are you asking me to explain how trial law works?

All of the jailbreaks that were released as easily accessible jailbreaks. It's definitely plausible that this exploit requires direct access of pinouts on the motherboard.

The difference is just that those exploits which were difficult enough that they required soldering generally weren't released or didn't get much traction.

That being said, I remember soldering a modchip on my original xbox 16 years ago
Meanwhile they have killed off the low-end of their market (and potential flow of new customers) by getting rid of their pricing pages and switching up to a “call sales; request a demo” model.

I can’t stand it when SaaS companies do this. I get yield management, but when Boeing and SpaceX have pricing pages it feels like a sleazy move. I know I know, their list prices are high, but at least you know what you’re getting into.

Please, if you run a SaaS company, don’t turn to the dark side by removing prices. Increase them by a lot and change up the offering, but just keep a list price anywhere. If you don’t then you just create an opportunity for a new company to vacuum up all of your future business.
I live in Baltimore, that's even worse, but I still won't work for any DoD contractors, even though that's where the money is around here.

I'm sure I make significantly less than anyone working for Palintir and I don't have those "cool benefits". But I still make a hell of a lot more than most people in Baltimore (ie the median income in Baltimore, what 50% of people make less than). I'm not looking for praise, but, yeah, you can hold people responsible for the work they do, even if they do it for cool benefits. If you're willing to sell out for gourmet lunches and a ping-pong table, your price wasn't very high.

Iowa is a pretty white state, at 91.3% state. In America whites are on average better off than blacks and Hispanics. Therefore whiter states will look good. A serious comparison of states meant to guide decisions on where to live will adjust for demographics, since you obviously won't change race when you move. Even better would be to adjust for race and education. Whites in New Hampshire are better off than those in Mississippi, but if you compare only college graduates, differences will be smaller.

Again, you do not have to if is business critical and used for fraud prevention. You must routinely delete logs before they get too old (60-90 days maybe), but you do not need to take special action beyond that. I’m not saying the GDPR isn’t troublesome, but having spent the better part of the last 6 months combing through the law and interpretations of it, I think the concern over IP addresses in log files that can be used for security and fraud-prevention is unfounded. Data portability requests are likely where it will get onerous and expensive. Even with those, there is flexibility build in to prevent users from repeatedly requesting their data at short intervals.
Like many others said, Hugo (https://gohugo.io) is super-awesome.

- Single static binary for any platform for a static site generator; couldn't get better.
- The fastest too!
- The Go templating is great! It should be fairly easy to pick up by anyone knowing any programming language. I love it especially because it reminds me of Lisp. Example: {{ or (and $a $b) $c }}. (For the folks that are not a fan of Lisp, you can right the same as {{ and $a $b | or $c }}.)

Hugo has inbuilt support for Org mode. But I use more Org syntax than the inbuilt version can support. So I came up with an Emacs package that's an Org exporter backend that exports to Hugo/Blackfriday Markdown + front-matter -- ox-hugo. Folks appreciative of Emacs Org mode might want to check out the homepage https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/ "dog-fooded" by the package itself :)

Upzoning creates multifamily housing. To many, that is not really housing, it's something for other people. The younger, the poorer (in suburban areas), the richer (in gentrifying urban neighborhoods), the transient, the childfree. Upzoning will encourage the demolition of single-family detached homes, which in their mind is the only kind that real families care about. Even if you can get someone to acknowledge that greater supply will make condos cheaper, affordable condos don't offset the increasing cost and scarcity of backyards. To be forced into a tower is as bad as being displaced entirely.

Developers aren't helping the matter. Multifamily buildings in America are too often cheap and hastily-built crap polluting the suburban landscape, or gleaming ultra-luxury alien invaders menacing vulnerable urban neighborhoods. It might help with sentiment if we had more multifamily buildings that were pleasant to live in and that middle-class voters could actually identify with.

I'm as YIMBY as anyone, but the actual recent condo buildings I can point to are making it hard to challenge the preference for single-family homes. Anything that looks as good costs twice as much, or more with HOA fees.
