I don't get this article. They're not even fuzzing the interpreters, but rather the STANDARD LIBRARIES. How is this remotely interesting? Passing unsanitized input to arbitrary standard library functions, what could go wrong?? *facepalm*
Why so few ONUs? I worked for an ISP in a third world country for a while, and we used Zhone equipment, which I would never recommend. Even so, it supported up to 64 ONU per fiber.
I love how it's done in Ruby. It's compact and yet readable, unlike certain other older languages known to include many paradigms, including OO and Functional.
It's my most familiar language, back from when I was learning it on the schoolbus by reading K&R. I would still never choose C over a carefully-selected subset of C++ for a new project. There is just no advantage to keeping things more primitive except when it comes to very specific environments, like traditional Unix kernels. I think templates are very useful in limited doses and far superior than macros, inheritance is somewhat useful to almost any kind of CS problem, and the STL itself is a huge boon to software reliability and interoperability.
Of course, I also have no qualms with Java, so....
Note 2 owner here; I would welcome this upgrade because my WiFi/Bluetooth module is now dead and I doubt I'm capable of reflowing the solder which is likely the reason for failure.
I am quite curious if Sony is now the leading manufacturer of consumer electronics powered by FreeBSD. The only other manufacturer that I think may be in the running would be Panasonic, with FreeBSD as the basis for their televisions.
The magic's gone since they started seriously dumbing down the game at the end of TBC.... Have only done a trial period or two since then, totally unimpressed. Final Fantasy XIV is it now, unless that goes in a direction that is clearly upsetting to me. I am pretty damn nostalgic for old WoW memories, though. You can never go back.
Revision control systems are not magic; if you edit the repository, you've changed the data. If they're open source like CVS then there's not a hint of obstacle in writing a program to modify the revision control repository, including modifying any metadata like checksums.
I'm using the Google Web Toolkit to program JavaScript by writing Java. It seems to be working quite well. Learning DOM and CSS intricacies is the real bitch.
Because it's much smarter to try to simply leap unassisted over thigh-high barriers, possibly snagging your toes by not being able to leap high enough because you were too macho to do a proper vault, resulting in face-planting and eating concrete. Glad to have you as a parkour instructor!
I don't think either of you can truly appreciate the distinction between kernel-mode software and user-mode software. User-mode still exists when things go wrong. That's called "your kernel having actually booted up and started running init scripts."
fat soluble chemicals never actually leave (like LSD), they just get stored away in the alrd region
This is wrong. Lysergic acid diethylamide is broken down by monoamineoxidase. This is just like the myth of LSD being stored in your spinal fluid and causing flashbacks or the one of THC being stored in your fat and getting you high when you exercise -- completely baseless.
The cynic in me says, yes, of course these are official exercises. These are official exercises to see how quickly the public can react to martial law being enacted, not exercises to determine if people can perform helicopter dogfights well.
Helicopters are really air-to-ground attack platforms. Air-to-air-defense would be nominally supplied by fighter jets. The harsh reality of cognitive dissonance says most people will blindly believe whatever makes them feel the most secure.
With a Galaxy Note 2, you just pull out the stylus and start writing. You do have to turn on the setting that enables a new S Note window to pop up when you remove the pen. As a nice bonus, it works without unlocking, too.
I just spent a week in the Tokyo area and a week in Kansai (the South) and don't agree. The Hiroshima Peace Memorial alone is enough to see that Japan only suffers America's fascist tendrils quite begrudgingly. Most people in the Tokyo region seem to have a general disdain for American foreigners. Osaka embraces American culture but still feels far more Japanese than it does American.

That's nonsense, you can't fit a milligram of anything onto a blotter square.

If you avoid static_cast/traditional (C_casts *), and use -Wall -Werror, then C++ is really quite a lot safer.

i.e. any modern Unix, Mac OS X, Windows, etc.
I am quite curious if Sony is now the leading manufacturer of consumer electronics powered by FreeBSD. The only other manufacturer that I think may be in the running would be Panasonic, with FreeBSD as the basis for their televisions.
I don't hate BSD or wish anybody ill. These are just my perceptions based on what I've seen.
No, they're not. They're your perceptions based upon what other Linux trolls have posted on Slashdot. Grow up.

Oh, don't worry, they'd make sure to send mvn -o off to space; download times for dependency updates would certainly not be stellar.
OSv certainly appears to be a derivative of FreeBSD (see https://github.com/cloudius-systems/osv/tree/master/bsd).
Oh, the irony. Let's conveniently ignore the fact that OSv is based on FreeBSD.

Heh.
Congrats on your CTO-ship, Jordan -- seems like you had a great celebration in the Maldives!

More like: expect the Zetas to bring things here. You follow the McAfee story at all? He's trying to expose the scandal of it all....

Talk about infancy... what a twatwaddle.
