First of all, thank you for making and sharing this. I have a few technical questions, if I may. Does Bearer perform data-flow analysis? If so: 1. Is the analysis inter-procedural?…

+1 for s2n. It's one of the select few C codebases that is actually a pleasure to read.

I've been using it for a while. It's been the most convenient solution, and worth the price. Before that I used a 3rd party Send-To-Kindle bookmarklet, and Instapaper via Calibre i…

Does the library export data from the web service or from the device itself? Also, do you know if the device can be prevented from syncing with the cloud? PS: Thank you for your co…

I assume you are looking at the table on slide 7. I think that is the percentage of all who completed relative to those who started it, so whether many CS undergrads go intro indus…

Could you, please, explain what .service files are and how they eliminate the need for bash scripts etc? Couldn't find anything in search results.

Depends on the publisher. Both ACM and IEEE allow publishing a copy on your website, don't know about Springer or Elsevier. Most authors in CS that I know publish copies as soon as…

It's not the departments that pay for subscriptions: it's the universities themselves (usually, the library).

Not the parent poster, but I have custom agendas too. The two I use the most are "Today" and "Weekly review". "Today" has the ordinary day agenda block, but sprinkled with habits t…

>> I'm kind of shocked there hasn't been a horrified response from HN Haskell fans. "What an ignorant fool?! How could he abandon the holy grail of Haskell?!" -- like that? :) For …

> Maemo/Meego wasn't really an option. Now, why wasn't it? It was a solid OS, and there were two great products running it (N900 and N9).

If you have time, Steve Awodey's book "Category Theory" is both beginner-friendly and helpful. You can get a PDF of an early pre-print online. He covers monads towards the end. If …

Yes, I think you should avoid Haskell (and any language with managed memory) on embedded systems or in very performance critical applications. Beyond that, it's going to be a choic…

> Instances can't be explicitly imported either. You can import only instances by saying "import A.B.C.Instances ()" where A.B.C.Instances is the name of the module where the insta…

Depends on what you are doing. The library eco-system used to be a weak link in Haskell, but I see it improving. To clarify, there were (and still are) a lot of broken and/or poorl…

Well, I'm exploring the process myself. From what I understand, you need to patch the CM source tree for your device with the patches found at [1] (choose the branch that correspon…

Thanks for an insightful reply. > Frankly I think that level of privacy control has little appeal to the mainstream. One might argue that the whole idea of privacy is of little app…

While I think this mode is useful, what I'd really like to see is Cyanogen integrating OpenPDroid [1,2]. OpenPDroid allows for more fine-grained permissions which, I think, is what…

Does it mean we won't be able to use "ssh -X" on Ubuntu in future?

Replication and sharding (horizontal and vertical scaling) in acid-state are in development right now. The developer's page has the road-map as well as his contact details: http://…
