    Authentication/trust is simply unrelated to this outage. The post you linked seems to have no relevance.

    Zero trust seems to be very unrelated to this issue. The issue seems to have been a poison config breaking fastly stack. Zero trust is about verifying authentication of devices/use…

    I wish they'd rather use python or Julia. GNU Octave is great. But as a clone of Matlab it's constraint by compatibility and doomed to always be second* and at worst an enabler for…

    Yep. Having each front end needing to scale with the overall size of the front end sounds is obviously going to hit some scaling limit. It's not clear to me from the summary why th…

    From the summary I don't understand why front end servers need to talk to each other ("continuous processing of messages from other Kinesis front-end servers"). It sounds like this…

    More like hardware from 20 years. Yeah I hope the TI monopoly gets broken. Numworks looks exactly like the calculator I was dreaming about when I was in uni.

    Imagine a future where whenever the energy price drops in a region suddenly companies show up with a bunch of such tubes drop them in the ocean. Do some batch processing and once t…

    And that does not include any external packets... Yes, there is no way Emacs will get rid of elisp. That's why Guile Emacs includes writing an elisp frontend for Guile. (There is a…

    In C++ - unlike C - you can actually implement quite good matrix/vector support. E.g., Eigen3 http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/index.php?title=Main_Page or Blaze https://bitbucket.org/bl…

    Isn't that largely because the LibreSSL team refused the invite to the exclusive OpenSSL security list? At least that was the case the last time the LibreSSL devs complained about …

    Yes, that's truly annoying. I have a few code examples that are complete but it refuses to accept them without giving any reason. If I try to step forward it says I have to go back…
