OpenBSD really really supports it:) I went to a talk by Theo de Raadt at bsdcan this weekend, and about half the talk was about how they integrated this stuff into OpenBSD. Very informative, they're doing really interesting security work.
I'd imagine buying the right carpet and glue would solve that problem. You'd have to dust the carpet a lot though, I could just imagine the dust that it would collect.
Hm - couldn't a cracker DOS connections to this kind of system rather easily? Yuo could write a program that tries to connect (knock) on ports to the system say while you're program is on knock 200031, and throw the rest of the knock sequence right off..
That class wouldn't be 95.302, Compiler Design at Carleton University, would it?:) I just took that last semester, and we coded with Jasmin, and what you just said sounded too familiar..:)
I agree, it can be a real pain to work with Jasmin: I like the idea of using it to take advantage of the security provided by the java virtual machine, etc, etc. Just the other day I found on Bigloo, a scheme interpreter, can compile to java class files - having tools like Jasmin around to do some of the work is definitly handy.
Er, and yeah, function calls were a pain. I wasn't a big an of fan of JavaCC... Working in emacs trying to remember what to cast each node object from an Object was a drag! (Java.... Needs... Templates!):)
Because someone could determine the pseudo-random algorithm your random number generator, and start sending out bogus packets to set your generator off. </paranoid>
Er, or if your PC isn't connected to a network / doesn't have any net traffic.
Just as a quick reply to everyone else in this thread, I just ran into the Zaval Ligh-Weight Visual Components Library the other day. It's a really optimized java based GUI library: those gripping about the slow swing library should check it out: it seems to have a lot of useful features, and is fast and small!
I was wondering what toolkit people use for GUI's written in scheme. I'd like to start developing GUI's with scheme - so far it seems like I'm limited to either the GTK scheme binding, or the plt gui toolkit.
As they say, there's no easy way to loose weight besides through exercise and eating less.
Last summer I reached the peak of a big weight loss cycle: I biked and jogged a lot during the week as well as some weight lifting. On top of that, I DRASTICALLY cut down on what I was eating (ie: no more junk food, all healthy, grainy, food, etc.) This is coming from someone who was a 205 lb geek only a year before - at the end of the summer, I had lost about 30 pounds, and gone from a size 40 pant size to size 32! I guess you could say my plan to shape up and loose weight worked a little too well. Make sure to watch what you're doing to yourself, too much weight loss can be a bad thing!:)
Now I'm living with my gf, and don't have as much time for exercise and am going back up in weight - I bike to and from work every day, and job once or twice times a week, and lift weights when I get up in the morning. (And eat too many sweets at work! ):)

Is that really a big problem? Is it that noxious?

Thanks, that was a really helpful set of slides! :)
Is it okay to redistribute it to peers? I have some collegues who would be interested in seeing this.

Cool - how does it do that?

Puffy is the name of the BSD fish, I believe.. (Puffy the Barbarian)
Supposted to be a knock-off of the BSD blowfish, but I couldn't remember the proper name? Can anyone chime in with the correct answer?
Which ports do you need to block to keep the RPC requests out?
I just thought of something: Moore's Law is refered to as a law, and yet it has never been formally proven (and I'd venture to say, cannot be proven.)
Maybe a better title would be Moore's Theorem.
