Sounds like the musical analog of 'windows metafiles' and I don't think most people think of 'metafiles' as executables although they technically contain the instructions required to produce distinct graphics.
Also, it seems that Apple should be able to validate that a 'SID player' doesn't do anything harmful; and, if the emulator itself isn't harmful then the input to it cannot possibly be (isn't this essentially the notion behind the sandbox-'security' of JVM).:-)
You're understanding of code/data borders on that of a LISPer. Since when is musical data 'executable'? If you go that route, then all data is code and all code is data (which isn't a bad way to think anyway IMO).
But if the process does not complete because it uses threads to build those same tabs, then the process will continue to take up that memory.
Not true. Google Chrome is the only one that uses full-blown processes for the tabs; yet the graphs indicated that all programs released memory back to the OS after their tabs were closed.
How about a little more variation on word selection? If I read the word 'verbosity' one more time (especially when it is not even the correct word), I think I'll puke.
Here's a few more you might want to throw in next time:
[conciseness, terseness, succinctness, expressivity, etc]
Of course, given your love of 'verbosity', these words may not be your most cherished (but remember to negate where necessary).
If they stick to 1 in 1000, then they'd essentially be doubling the failure rate. 2x is definitely detectable. It'd have to be more like 1 in 100000 to remain undetectable.
If it's learned, then it's learned rather quickly. I was but a young lad of 3 or 4 years old with the same ability. I tend to think it was more nature than nurture given that few others have the same ability even as adults.
Well, in that case, you could build some sort of verification into the software you are running (maybe logging or maybe some form of 'data signing' a la 'code signing').
So, not only do you get 'the result is X' back from the botnet, but you get 'the result is X and here are the repro steps we executed to get it' or 'the result is hash(X) where hash is known only to you'.
Even if the results were leaked, could any competitor afford to trust it? They would most likely have to carry out the same expensive, long-running calculation to validate the results (and I doubt they could afford to do so with every random 'discovery' leaked to the net).
Not so fast. Consider the ramifications of evolutionary thought [as evidenced by the Nazi implementation of it] (which is purely based on materialist philosophies). It's the philosophy which Christians have a problem with. And, it is a very dangerous philosophy masquerading as 'science' and 'fact' to the naive masses.
I agree completely. In fact, I can move around my macbook faster than Vista due to two main reasons:
1 - two-finger scrolling and clicking.
2 - expose's 'all windows' (it's actually useful [i.e., practical] whereas the 3d equivalent on vista is just eye candy).
Aside from the extreme fallacy of claiming that if an atheist can't explain how something happened, it must have been a specific god, it can also be pointed out that the universe is not precisely tuned for human life. In fact, in all of it we know about, with the exception of one tiny portion of one tiny planet, we can't even breathe. And even on that part there are places where it's so hot and humid you'll die within hours, so cold you'll die within minutes, wind so strong it'll kill you, ground that shakes, falls, burns, fills suddenly with water, or just collapses under you unexpectedly. And that's not to mention all the other life forms, from large predators to tiny micro-organisms, that kill millions of us every year.
Gee, it seems you've noticed the miracle of our existence.
First, how can you say the first amendment does not work in precisely one given way? There must be infinitely many ways that the first amendment does not work--so none of those are very 'precise' are they?
Second, neutral != a-theistic. Neutral means no particular preference for any given religion or denomination within said religion (which secular humanism and atheism qualify as).

Interesting. Thanks for the information!

STM has been implemented in Haskell (and costs a 20-30% penalty) but as far as I know, the actor model is from Erlang, not Haskell.
... but rather that our current theories may very well be incomplete.
As per Kurt Godel-- our current theories are definitely incomplete and if they weren't, then they'd be inconsistent.

Surely there exists an entire spectrum of human intelligence which you could base your reasoning on without bringing animals into it at all.
If they stick to 1 in 1000, then they'd essentially be doubling the failure rate. 2x is definitely detectable. It'd have to be more like 1 in 100000 to remain undetectable.
That's absurd. Get better reviewers or ignore the ones you have.
how fitting that they are part of 'systemax' now.

Meaning accurate DNA testing has shown that species of monkeys are extremely similar to humans showing a common link in our genetic design.
Keyword: 'design'. Commonality in binaries can be attributed to shared static libraries or resource sections.
That sounds like circular reasoning to me.
Mrs. Lacker, is that you? My fifth grade teacher?

but not having them seems worse than having them.
And NK [and other aspiring nuclear powers] seem to agree with you.

Yea, and then you have to scan the entire string just to find out how long it is--a O(n) operation for something that should be O(c).
Actually, null references are not allowed in C++ at all. If you have a reference (i.e., &) then it must be initialized to some non-null.
