On your gluten free diet, do you eat (in no particular order): apples, pears, peaches, milk, sugar, asparagus, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, garlic, avocado, cauliflower, mushrooms, and soft / fresh cheeses?
Do you have any issues with them? They are identified as high FODMAP foods.
Do you have any actual data to back your wild assertions? Entire domains of computer science are dedicated to productivity languages and many are widely used with great success and little or no overhead relative to C. (edit: for example scipy)
A proportional-integral-derivative controller (PID controller) is a control loop feedback mechanism (controller) widely used in industrial control systems [...] A PID controller calculates an "error" value as the difference between a measured process variable and a desired setpoint. The controller attempts to minimize the error in outputs by adjusting the process control inputs.
For some hardware attacks, like transistor-level dopant mask swaps, there isn’t any reliable way to detect them, not even optical inspection (because the layout is unchanged) nor functional testing (because passing BIST and external benchmark results can be faked). See the paper from UMass: https://people.umass.edu/gbecker/BeckerChes13.pdf
Since the “detection” I’m referring to is already extremely difficult before the chip even leaves the legitimate chip manufacturer’s facility, what hope could someone have of opening a modern IXP-scale router and determining if any of the zillion chips inside has been trojaned by double-0-mailman?
You’ve got me wondering about startup culture. When you’re running a startup you presumably invest all your money, borrow from friends and family, get investors, expose yourself to various types of legal liability, sacrifice family time, risk your reputation, and endanger your retirement. A lot of stuff can go wrong. (Based on your garden box of doom example, I’m sure you could enumerate the risks of a startup better than I.) I wonder if people running the typical startup acknowledge the risk and deal with it, or is it mostly a “what could go wrong? / don’t think about it” kinda situation?
The phrase “Oculus Rift, which added an orientation tracker” glosses-over the chief technical accomplishments of the team. The Rift is defined by the affordable very low latency head tracking. We’ve had head-mounted 3D displays at least since the invention of the stereoscope in the 1800s.
It's like writing that Alexander Graham Bell* should get Apple stock because “iPhone, which added a multi-touch computer” just made $56 billion dollars.
This reminds me of "Thing" -- a passive bugging device hidden inside a wooden carving of the American Great Seal and given to the American Ambassador to Russia by Russian school children. It operated for years and was discovered only by accident. Beware of Russians bearing gifts (if you are a diplomat).
His usage of "powered" is a very common english colloquialism. For example the phrase “powered by wordpress” doesn’t indicate that someone is obtaining energy from the wordpress software product.
