Look at my other response in this thread, ROP isn't trivial these days due to ASLR implementations. Almost always one needs information leak bugs. The presence of a JIT makes thing…

It's not that simple. ROP relies on known or predictable addresses and pretty much all modern OSes have some form of address space layout randomization (which keeps getting better …

If you want to give back to Pharo in a way that counts, fund improvements to the UI. The font rendering is bad right now and HiDPI screens are not even supported. This makes for a …

Exactly. Life without parole for running a fucking forum and selling some mushrooms. There is no justice in this country.

Takes the luster off? Nobody died so how is he a murderer? I swear the amount of stupidity written on the matter defies belief. People are unable to think critically and be objecti…

Nobody gives a shit.

I think it's safe to say at this point that it is you who are dead wrong and not Erik.

Because code is data is code in lisp. That's not the case in C or Java or C# or Rust or whatever.

Not enough justification? How about 0 security? All their measures are totally useless, there is no safety here just same old bullshit that can be trivially bypassed.

I don't see anything safer here, same old garbage + snake oil. Sandboxes are totally useless when the kernel is riddled with exploitable bugs. ASLR 64bit bla bla is totally useless…

Psychedelics have their positives and their negatives. You can try to control the experience with controlling the set but really that doesn't mean it's gonna work. You're blasting …

Oh but it DOES mean that Rust has no value, at least regarding security. Once you give them the rope, they WILL use it. Let's see if time will prove me right.

Unfortunately, this point of view has little merit. Security is all or nothing. You can't have a little bit of this and a little bit of that. Unless the parts of the web browser th…

Because clojure is garbage? Also, Java/JVM suck ass, why would anyone willingly work with that whole mess?

An interesting observation would be for the author to start considering why this is true. Why does the "universe" give you what you seek? Why do you get from life exactly what you …

You are a fool.

You can read this as "mainline Guile Emacs is never gonna happen". Guile is very low quality software (that goes double, hell, triple, for "non free" platforms like OSX and Windows…

The "goal" of meditation/yoga is UNION with GOD. Where GOD can be anything of significance to you but to those who have experienced it's "the universe", the Void, the Unborn, the U…

MOCL is garbage, commercial garbage at that. No thanks.

It's 2014, Python still has a GIL, Guido thinks asynchronous event loops are hot stuff and you're talking about quantum CPUs?

Who needs threads when you get drumroll poor excuse of an asynchronous event loop!! In 2014 no less!
