I now have GB's of RAM and most times I have no shortage of physical memory; I have more than enough to run all my small, statically compiled programs in their own memory space. While I know the kernel is still designed…
Example that comes to mind is libcurl. How many of the functions in the third party library are actually used in the program? What if some names conflicts with the name of a system function? (curl is exempt, but other…
mininet, which this project uses, appears to be written only for linux? is this project linux only?
Until now I had no idea there was a game. :) This comic strip is the second thing I visualize when I think of MAD magazine. The first is the drawing of Alfred Newman's face. It is interesting how different generations…
BIOS just runs whatever is in the first 512 byte sector. Unless it fits in 512 bytes this is not a "kernel" but is just instructions to jump to another address, where there is more small bootstrap code that loads…
Do you think there are any BIOS developers who can do all their work without Microsoft Windows?
Does anyone disagree that UEFI has the capability to be an OS itself? If it is only used as a "BIOS" then is it unreasonably adding the surface area for bugs and attacks? Is it much larger and more complex than legacy…
Would your idea include small form factor external media as the "card/chip"? What would be the negatives to this approach? I have been doing this for many years and have still not found any. Currently I prefer RO space…
Cheers.
Nothing perjorative at all about the term "nerd". The issue is not simply privacy, it's control of the hardware.
I was referring to IRC gateways. Were those IRC gateways?
This is a great comment. You should not close apps because you may interfere with tracking your location and other data collection. Data collection is necessary to enrich your "user experience". When we know what you…
Can HolyC be used to write a network stack? Are there any plans to do this?
Ever tried bitlbee? Not sure how well it's keeping up with the new protocols but years ago it was a way to consolidate at least a few of the older ones into a single application. Also not sure why this idea has not been…

That domain name brings back memories. Registration dates back to 1989. It's WR Stevens' website, isn't it?
You are allowed to be concerned. I probably read too much into your comment. But I think you all understand my point. I was concerned that some mortals might be scared off from experimenting with NaCl. "Experts only."…
Agreed. Now kindly point to the mistakes the author has made so others can learn from them.
The use of the word "expert" here gives me pause. I thought one of the motivations behind this library was that you did not need to be an "expert" to use it.
Correct. My mistake. Only down for me. I block AWS as part of blocking mobile ads.
Note to securiteam: ns2.beyondsecurity.com 209.40.99.8 appears to be dead Edit: Ignore this. I was blocking AWS.
"tmux was supposed to provide [of] additional value" Are you sure? Could it be the author just wanted a BSD licensed screen alternative or some other reason(s)? "The keybindings are different" argument seems quite silly…
May I suggest an "Ask HN." Show your .json input and the desired output.
I propose a new project: lessutils. You post about some program that you use for some simple task that's not among the "standard UNIX utils". (ed, sed, AWK, lex, etc.) Then we show you how to do the same task with only…
