Even more so in some areas, for instance a Python `int` is not a machine integer but a full-blown object.

Truth be told, Marx himself would probably not be seen as a "marxist". And as a guy who swears by his Hayek and Lord Acton, I wonder how come when someone in the former Western block countries calls you a "marxist" or as a follower of Marx supposedly it is something bad, very bad?
Pretty epic. A pure demonstration of the power of open source. Will definitely have a play with this.
I think its important to note your first example actually isn't valid. Part of PHP's type-mixing means strings that consist of an integer representation as array keys are automatically casted to int.

$arr = array(1 => 10, "1" => 11);
echo $arr[1]; // >> 11

Your site says you operate under Crocker's rules, Julian, so please hear me out. (And to Phil Welch: I understand, but allow me the claim that he probably would have agreed with the message. And even if the distastefulness depends on the probability of a dead man's agreement with a position, should we not prevent ourselves from lashing out at people who post the message so that people may at least read and decide for themselves on an issue as important as this?)

Firstly, Christopher is not dismissive of life-extension techniques that transhumanists espouse. If he could live longer right now due to a technique formerly classified a "espoused by transhumanists," he would choose to, as is evinced all over that essay. Rather, he is largely dismissive of life-extension techniques that don't work. The transhumanism part has nothing to do with it.

In that essay, cryonics is lumped in with the paragraph that discusses bad advice. So we can agree that Christopher considers cryonics as bad science, the same way he considers eating the granulated essence of the peach pit to prevent overwhelming growth of a malignant neoplasm bad science.

On the other hand, the rest of the essay discusses good science, that is, science which has been proven to work. He discusses its "near-miraculous" quality.

Perfusion of chemicals to preserve and prepare brain tissue is already textbook science, just not applied to whole brains. The case of Clive Wearing is one piece of an assortment of evidence that consciousness is a clever illusion (the philosopher of consciousness, Daniel Dennett, can say a lot here). Ultimately, cryonics is science that (by definition) has not been proved to work, but nonetheless serious science. Please don't deny that. Harvard neuroscientist Kenneth Hayworth explains this much better than I could, so I leave the floor to him:

Some things you can't change
There are still questions concerning the Tech News Today takedown issue. From the article:

UMG's response also sheds some light on another mystery: why Monday's issue of Tech News Today was yanked from YouTube. When UMG removes a video via YouTube's CMS, a "reference file" is created that "in theory is supposed to identify other instances of postings of the same content." UMG speculates that this "reference file" system was responsible for the accidental removal from YouTube of a Tech News Today episode featuring the Megaupload video.

Now, this is plausible why TNT was taken down the first time. TNT then issued a counter-complaint and was put back online shortly thereafter. Finally, it was removed AGAIN in accordance to the DMCA because (according to the speculation on how this works) UMG confirmed that the content in question which was originally removed did infringe.

UMG cannot hide behind the "accidental" TNT takedown if they personally confirmed it twice to be infringing.
Does that account for the size taken by the integers themselves?
I wonder if rep-rap can print good enough lego pieces?
The surpriing take-away from that graph, assuming we take Google searches as an accurate measure of course, is that the popularity of Digg was steadily falling long before The Event. Of course being a eaily typed domain name (though that counts for reddit too) and people having it bookmarked will reduce the number of occurances where people neeed to search for it over time, so we should probably take these figures with a pinch of salt.
Well, surely, DMCA invoke or not - that is anticompetitive.
the video made it for me- humble how it started with just him walking in through the front doors, then walk on stage with no warm up act and no announcements.

> You guys need to understand that you're the Western precedence society.

Correlation is not causation. It's just that the same lobbies at work there are at work here too. Democracy is dead.
> they have basically given them the ability to silence any and all opposition to UMG on YouTube with the single click of a button

Which, unfortunately, seems to be a legal.
And here you are complaining, avoiding, being offended, giving your opinion, generally doing anything and everything except learning.

Seriously. Shh. Just do it. Shh meaning stop all the opinionating. Just do it meaning only do that and not all the surrounding fuss and bluster.

It's not disrespectful, it's pragmatic, you're reading his book to learn, what are you doing thinking things like "I don't want to type it 20 times, I've typed it 5 times and I know it already, this is stupid, it's boring, I'm not saying it out loud, that's embarassing, blah blah blah"? You chose to read this book to learn, do what he says. No, shh, just do it.

I think it is almost entirely that cars are more safe nowadays than they used to be. And I expect it has less to do with "collision avoidance maneuvers", and more to do with better design and crumple zones, and a significant focus on crash test ratings. There are probably as many accidents as ever, it's just that less of them are fatal.

That's not quite true, is it? The documentation says I need to verify the user's identity by calling e.g. browserid.org/verify…
And all of them agree on the fact that running afoul of Christian doctrine is -by itself- not a reason to go to hell. The usual point is that trying to get into heaven without the bible is like driving a car blindfolded : you may very well get there, it's just ...

While you're correct that there are variations, they're not that different at all.
> "his willingness to debate"

Debating must be done on the ground of good faith, right? Bad faith in a discussion is the sure mark of someone who is not willing to intellectually exchange rational arguments. Then in at least one case Hitchens showed a shocking "unwillingness" to debate:

In his debate about Mother Theresa with Simon Leys, triggered by his book titled "The Missionary Position", Hitchens said "he describes the title of my book as “obscene,” [...] Would he care to say where the obscenity lies?".

This was a killer to me. Never could see him again as someone whose writing could be taken seriously.

Can you explain briefly what the good reason is for no browser to integrate OpenID?
Seems to be back up(ish) now.
Yeah, I wasn't questioning that. I was simply stating it, one because I find it hard to believe that YouTube would sign such an agreement and second because it means an corporation can censor what they deem to be damaging for them.
I take it to mean that the one expressing that sentiment doesn't have the same interests as the corporation mentioned in a shared matter, like open/closed platforms, like freedom (maybe wanna rip that DVD you own so you can view it on the iPad because it's even not available for iPad), or maybe you don't want to be tracked by facebook and googles supercookies (via like buttons and, google adsense/analytics).

Another thing would be removing all crapware that comes with a new windows computer, or having to buy a "clean" windows just to get rid of that. Another big evil is Microsofts requirement that all netbooks can have max 2G of ram. That's clearly not in anybody elses interest but Microsoft.

Interests are not aligned. Annoyment ensured.

Then there are real evils of course, like using slave or child labour, destroying the environment and funding wars by using natural resources like Coltan.

Nice text, but "This is a very limited set of operations, and certainly not all real numbers can be written this way -- π clearly can’t be written this way." caught my attention. I know it is true, if that is 'clear', one can just as well claim "clearly, quintics cannot be solved" and be done with it.
It would be interesting for this to get some exposure from a large web-service. Being realistic, Facebook nor Google would be interested in replacing their own system. But I think it is an interesting idea which now is no longer just theory.
I'm pretty sure I understand how this works, but please correct me if I'm wrong.

As currently implemented, it appears that if the Primary Identity Authority or Secondary Identity Authority keys are compromised, then all accounts for which that authority is trusted are also compromised. This enables accounts to be compromised en masse, rather than individually. It would seem that by de-centralizing authentication, browserid centralizes security.

Ok, so revoke the compromised certificate. If you "trust" browserid.org and do assertion verification on your own servers, how are you notified of the compromise and key change? Conversely, if you offload assertion checking to browserid.org and they go down, will users really understand why they can't log in and your site is "broken"? You could use CRLs and OSCP, but now you have another thing to get wrong in individual sites' assertion verification implementations.

Another interesting side effect of PIA or SIA key compromise is that an attacker could now create accounts and impersonate users, not just access existing ones.

It would also appear that due to the omission of a nonce, assertions are vulnerable to replay within the validity window.

I think that authentication is broken, and commend attempts to fix it. I'm just not sure that all the added complexity of browserid really buys us anything, and instead enables new attacks that previously weren't feasible.

I'm surprised to see that much difference between IE6 and IE8.

Though IIRC the sunspider test is all javascipt processing and no DOM manipulation, so perhaps the fact I pecieve IE8 as not being that much faster may mean that its DOM layer is the bottleneck I'm experiencing. Not unlikely as I don't currently do large amounts of nmuber-crunching and text processing in anything I have to test under IE.
The documentation also says "NOTE: You may choose to validate assertions on your own server. While a bit more complicated you can reduce your dependencies on others. Refer to the specification and the source for the reference validator."
Why?

Firefox already stores passwords in a local database and it wouldn't be that hard to automatically log users into sites.

The method they describe here requires every web site be changed and requires cross-domain JavaScript to be enabled such that browserid.org will know which websites you visit. You _could_ place include.js on your local domain to avoid this issue. However history has shown that sites will tend to just cross-domain link to googleapis or yahooapis.

Additionally, this is yet another web authentication method that should probably be handled at a lower level in the stack -- either the HTTP protocol, transport layer (TLS) or perhaps in the future, by using IPSec.

Google is giving the labels way more power than they should. They automatically announce them of infringing content with ContentID, when it's not their obligation to do so under current copyright laws, and now this - allowing the labels to remove even content of their competitors.

What the hell are you doing Google? Google entering the music/movie business worries me, because it means they will give them more power over their other services like Google Search, Youtube, or the Android Market, and they really shouldn't. At least not if they ever want to use the "Do No Evil" line in public again.

Also, can UMG really make their own private DMCA under a contract with Google? Does that mean they could even take down domain names if they agreed to that under a contract with the DNS providers? I don't think the law is supposed to work like that, and hopefully the judge will recognize that.
What every programmer should know about memory [2007]

I think this is a really good analysis of what is going on in Washington. I have always found it worrying when politicians walk into a field which they have little knowledge about and try to pass laws. Anyone can become an elected official and the power they yield over things they have no background in is scary. In the UK a person can effectively go from University >> Elected Official >> Misc Support Roles >> Secretary of State. Or... Student >> MP with 1 or 2 staff >> An advisor to someone >> Budget of billions, hundreds of thousands of employees.

In business you would work your way up. Employee >> Supervisor of Employees >> Manager with budgets >> Area Manager >> Country Manger >> CEO. You gain responsibility as you go. MP's do not have this. They fall into a job which they are almost never qualified for. Some do OK. However.. if you look closely at the majority you will see mistakes that anywhere else would see them fired.

In the states these dubiously qualified MP's are now looking to legislate an global network as a single nation... I am sure that some of them cannot even comprehend what the Internet is.

As I understand it, the authentication token you get back from BrowserID is signed by the entity that verified that the email address is real; at the moment, only browserid.org is signing tokens, but presumably there'll be some scheme where you say "I have a token for foo@example.com, so I'll request the public key of example.com and validate the signature on this token".

I guess it's possible for somebody to set up a website that will sign absolutely any token anybody offers them, but (a) as a website operator, you can tell that the token "foo@example.com signed by example.com" is different from "foo@example.com signed by evil.com" and (b) you could always have a blacklist/whitelist of entities you trust to verify BrowserIDs.

Maybe this is a trick to exploit the Streisand effect? It's in such close proximity to the SOPA hearings that I'm sure it will make waves regardless.

If you can find an image of what the page looked like when initially blocked, it said "removed by UMG", using the group's initials. In the past, videos have been blocked under the name "Universal Music Group". Why the alternate name? Maybe someone other than UMG intentionally triggered this. Either to bring attention to SOPA or MegaUpload itself.

I followed through the entire essay in complete agreement, but I wished the following paragraph had at least a reference pointing to its claim:

The human body’s physical “fight or flight” response evolved to help it evade a dangerous situation, which historically involved extreme physical exertion. The rush of steroids into the bloodstream essentially turns off unnecessary systems, including some higher thinking processes, to aid in escape.

When we make statements like this proclaiming we understand the complex workings of things like human physiology I always have to shake my head. We may be smart, us programmers and designers, but let's not pretend to understand the order and meaning of everything. And if you do understand and you have the means, provide some kind of reference to where the claim originates from so we can all learn more.

In Catholic doctrine one who commits a mortal sin without repenting is bound to hell.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortal_sin#Roman_Catholicism

If you look at the three conditions that a sin must meet to be considered a mortal sin, I think there is a very high probability that writing a book titled God Is Not Great is a mortal sin. There are hundreds of things that Christopher did which very likely meet those conditions, and there is also a high probability that he has not repented about them before death.

According to Catholicism people do not get into heaven by living according to what they sincerely believe, and many, many, Catholic scholars would say that Christopher is bound for hell.

> A union is a means to make some value accessible as various types. For example if you do a zvalue_value->lval you’ll get the value interpreted as an integer. If you use zvalue_value->ht on the other hand the value will be interpreted as a pointer to a hashtable (aka array).

This is not valid C usage of unions. They are _only_ for use as a method to save space, not for conversion between types, despite it being a very common usage of unions.

This can cause all manner of problems when compiler optimizations such as type-based alias analysis are used.
