If this really works with reasonably low power, you can bet the big guys are lining up for a bidding war. This is the kind of feature which an Apple or a Samsung would want to have exclusively, at least for a while.

E.g., Apple seems to have bought all the consumer electronics output of the metal-moldable-like-plastic company (forget the name) a while back, though we haven't seen the results publicly yet.

Can someone smarter than me explain how exactly 401k fees are assessed? My wife's 401k has $3 taken out of it as a fee once a quarter; my 401k doesn't even have that. Or are the fees built into the returns? (e.g., my 401k is up 5% for the year, but without the fees it'd be up 6% or something like that?)

yeah i apologize, perhaps i was a bit harsh. i did understand what the issue was and never claimed that it was the newline/EOL assertion itself. i said that your newline/EOL assertion is being treated as PART of the alteration, which is exactly what happens - yes because of pipe's higher operator precedence when no explicit grouping is defined.

novice or not though, 2 misplaced chars in a regex can make the diff between a security feature and a security hole, in this case matching a plethora of inject-able, potentially malicious characters which appear nowhere in the regex, not even as a wildcard ".", i would never make the claim that a 2-char mistake which matches this far beyond its intent is a minor oversight in a real-world, public facing application - and isn't that the ultimate goal?

the only issue in the context of a book for a regex beginner is that the regex gives the appearance of newline/EOL assertion hugging an alteration, but does something quite different. removing those assertions would clear things up for the better.
I'd imagine such super users get Name/Codeword/Purpose briefs to cross reference, rather than access to the information itself, as clearance to know is not a need to know.
Looking for Web Based Audio Recording
Hello, I'm in the search for audio recording from a webpage. I've come across some products like flvar but they all seem a bit amateur.

I'm looking for one that doesn't necessarily need a media server to stream to.

Any help would be appreciated.
Indeed. In that benchmark I did, it was 2 times faster on 32-bit linux and 4 times faster on 64-bit linux. In both the Luvit version used about 40x less ram. Also startup time is much faster in Luvit. This doesn't matter as much for servers, but for embedded devices like writing webOS games for the TouchPad, it makes all the difference in the world!

Node depending on how you build it can take between 300 and 1000 ms of time and 10Mb of ram to just start up on the TouchPad. Luvit starts instantly and uses much less ram.

Larger programs are needed to see how the memory usage and performance scales with real work. That could be completely different.
I think there's a big danger here.

Of course the idea of being initiated into a secret circle is extremely attractive. It appeals to our sense of ego, intrigue, romantic notions of the other. It's the stuff of novels and films .. it's the beginning of a great story. The personal advice given sounds good. But the dangerous part for me is the inference that we need to consider that those above us necessarily know best, and we should, by necessity, capitulate control.

The fact that such layers of information, access to information, and access to power exist should not supplant the fact that this system embodies one single way the world can be ordered.

What would happen if everyone had access to everything?
> And it's of much less interest to companies due to the per-user installation setup and not being self-contained (it relies on the host OS for encryption, proxy handling, etc).

I don't run an IT department, but the self-updating browser seems like a pretty good win. Doubly so when it's very secure.
Honest answer.. I don't know. Its not so much about encryption. It is more about data protection and restricting data access.

In their FAQ regarding if they have access to account information... "Yes. But with 100s of people using the app, it's really not interesting to run after your details."

I would expect that in a lot of application's it is possible to pull out client data one way or another. The way this is written makes it sound like client details are sitting on a desk and the only reason they aren't rooting through your details is because you aren't interesting enough.

Well.. what happens when you apparently offend the designer on HN and become of interest.

The answer should be technically yes but no. A developer could engineer access or pull data from a client database. However, breaches like this aside, there is no formal way to access your account or see your data.
Attractive only.

If I remember my electrostatics, the rationale is that if the surface becomes positively charged, the positive charges in your finger will move away from the surface, leaving only the negative charges near the surface. Those particles will be attracted to the screen. If you reverse the charge so the surface is negatively charged, then the negative charges in your finger will be repulsed, leaving positive charges which will be attracted to the screen. Either way, your finger gets attracted to the screen.

Indeed, this is a problem. I've mitigated it somewhat by changing how require works (to be more node-like) and disabling the built-in I/O library. This will make most offending libraries unable to run in Luvit. Also this means I don't get the large existing community of modules either.

But no gmail user is in much higher demand by google (or their advertizes) compared to any other. The generic gmail user is more like dime-a-dozen no-name bands that don't have even a whiff of the negotiating power against a label that the Stones do by virtue of being the Rolling fucking Stones.

I too am a Chrome convert and loved FireFox in its day (mainly because of its development tools), but its rampant memory leaks drove me away. While Chrome's dev tools aren't quite as robust as FireFox's, they're getting there very very quickly.

On a side note, I'm tired of having to design and develop around IE. All versions have the promise of adhering to modern web standards, but with each release, they tend to fall short of those promises.

He's based his argument on the recruiter's statement, which is a poor choice. On the other hand, other material from the company supports, in fact, a much larger number.

I don't think there's any goalpost moving here at all: Hundreds of millions of keyloggers -- rootkits, really, as the article states -- are installed and unremovable. Whether they are being abused or not at the moment is irrelevant; it should be outrageous and unacceptable that such a datastream is going through a third-party without any kind of transparency, acceptance, or even tacit acknowledgement.

Likewise, your rhetorical refutation here (very thorough, in the abstract) would be a lot more damning if there wasn't, you know, video evidence of this rootkit collecting exactly this data and sending it back.
neat! I almost accidentally implemented this when making an implementation of this paper/technique: http://www.cs.umd.edu/~mwh/papers/martin10ownership.html

I bet they used llvm to do this? it would be childs play to do this in llvm ...

the downside to this technique is that you can only instrument / inspect code that you compile, so if you have any third party code that you link against, and that code results in memory errors, you have problems. you always do have third party code, like the C runtime. you can get around this though by having the source for the runtime and recompiling it with your instrumentation added.

you CAN recompile the runtime on windows (they ship it to you in a ready-to-build way as part of visual studio), but there are a lot of other libraries that they don't do that for (advapi, com, rpc, etc). I guess it's fortunate for chromium that they can run these tests on the linux codebase and have the windows codebase/build pick up the improvements made for free ...

also, if you're willing to insert some annotations into the code that you are instrumenting you can perform race condition detection with lower overhead. but konstantin already wrote a DBI extension that does race condition detection without requiring annotations (ahem, most of the time) so I guess that is low on his to-do list...

I posted a high-karma-earning poll once ("Do you know C?"). I suspected if it caught on, I would earn a bunch of karma, but I posted it because I didn't think as many people knew C as seemed to be commonly assumed (and because I couldn't find a previous poll on the same topic). Sometimes you just want to know how reality aligns with common belief.

Nevertheless, I think your idea is great.

real question here: Should it be obvious that the carrier controls the OS? Second question: is that acceptable? I mean, that assumption underpins your dismissal of an MITM as "pretty silly", which also seems totally correct.

I'm just curious if that's the way phones will be forever: with the OS controlled by the carrier and with no right to tinker/hack/modify the device you buy & pay huge monthly fees to use.

> Also its just another version of electric fence which existed ever since I started debugging code. Correct me if I am wrong.

I was about to say the same thing (though comparing it to Mungwall and Enforcer on AmigaOS), but then I read through it in more detail. There are significant differences:

Electric Fence/Mungwall/Enforcer type systems rely on one or both of poisoning and using the MMU to trap accesses. But the MMU approach only works fast if you only trap access to unallocated pages, not if you try to trap every access. That's where the comparison to Valgrind comes in - Valgrind checks every memory access precisely. But it's ridiculously slow.

So you get immediate feedback for accesses to unallocated pages from the simpler tools, and very quickly, since it's no slower than any other memory access through the MMU, except when there's a hit. Tools like this may or may not try to be more precise by trapping accesses to partially allocated pages, but if they do, performance drops dramatically.

Then they can trap writes to poisoned areas where they don't trap reads by running checks for magic values at specific times - typically at least on free() and program exit. The problem with this is that it won't pinpoint where the write happened, and it won't catch reads of unallocated memory.

But this tool inlines code during compilation that checks every dereferencing of every pointer, as far as I understand, by maintaining a lookup table that says whether or not a specific byte is allocated or not. The upside is that they can be as precise as Valgrind.
May I suggest you to delete your Firefox profile folder (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox) and give it another try? They have corrected tons of problems, really.

IE10 is pretty solid, but you're right, we'll have to develop and design for older versions for a long time.

"I know plenty of people who prefer more advanced source control system [than Subversion], but my belief is that many agile practices diminish the importance of advanced features like branching."

The author instantly lost any credibility with me after this line.
Updated my comment. Scary thing is you still haven't responded to the fact your FAQ points towards a complete disregard to data protection.

You could have shut me up instantly by saying. "The FAQ is poorly written. There is no formal way to access client data... blah blah"

Instead you have no response. It doesn't seem to bother you that you suggest you can access any clients personal data at the drop of a hat.

Regarding knowing what your site is built on. You don't seem to understand that you aren't a designer. You are a co-founder. At least I thought you were. If not disregard what follows. As a co-founder you should know what is going on in your company. You should know what your website's technology stack is, you should know about your costs, your pricing and your marketing strategy. It is in your interest. This isn't about programming. It is about business ownership and knowing what the hell is going on with your product.

If you approached an investor and you couldn't answer a few questions about the technology used in your site you would be sunk moments after setting your foot in the door.

If none of this bothers you then fine. My boss knows no programming but he knows how many servers the company uses, the OS on the servers. The database system. He knows current storage (%) total vs available. he watches the technologies we use for updates. Yet he know's nothing about programming or design for that matter. He is a sales person.

It is in his interest to know these things because his product is a website and he doesn't want to look like a dick in front of his clients or financial backer.
