True, but not sure how it's relevant - you don't need memory corruption for the test to perform arbitrary I/O. And even if you trust the tests to not do anything bad, you don't nee…

You are giving it to them. That's why the demo asks for your location permission, and that's why the API expects location info. "You" here means another app that integrates their A…

No, live train data in the UK is already publicly available, e.g. see https://www.opentraintimes.com/ This is matching your phone's location to the already public train data.

I think you're misunderstanding what they are saying. They don't use background location data, but they do use your current location data. Try the "Find My Train" demo on their sit…

Presumably you still need a C++ compiler for LLVM itself though. Or... a C++ to C translator. Edit: On second thought, that's only needed if you want to run rustc itself on the old…

It might sometimes prefetch the surrounding lines as well, but ultimately cache space is limited, so there is a trade-off. Every time you fill a line, you are throwing away somethi…
