This is clearly just my laptop (or maybe firefox) but that google site took about 30 seconds to load up. Every time I click on the tab that has it open - my computer fan whirs up to near full speed and it locks up firefox's graphic rendering until it finishes the page. Once loaded there is an unusable level of lag on the browser and CPU usage is levelling at 55 odd percent.
I think many would agree with you, that most modern browsers with the expected features are pretty bloody efficient pieces of software. I believe what OP was saying was that the layers of abstraction used in building web application on top of the foundation the browser provides -- while really useful -- are also inefficient. This is to be expected since they do not usually have access to the full capabilities of the operating system and hardware.
Could it be my new scripting language? It sounds pretty avant-garde... maybe a little too much for me. My mindset is just not there. As others have mentioned - I also like the interactive environment that is available with traditional scripting languages.
Ah yes, auto! I've been using that a lot since I saw Herb Sutter's talks.
> Distro repos do provide many of the packages you need for development because you need to be able to compile all of the C++ applications and libraries in the distro repo, of which there are many.
I think it's more along the lines of the distro's package manager's responsibilities should be different from the language's PM. Although I do find myself in agreement with you that the distro's PM is sufficient for C/C++
That's really... what word to use? .... that's really fresh! I like it a lot.
Spent some time going to sleep with '10 hours of rain' youtube videos in the background. This is like all the soundscapes in one place. I particularly liked it when I found out I could layer jungle/paradise island and rain together... sweet.
About 2 months ago -- for a presentation about being vigilant with your smartphone on public APs -- I implemented a toolkit that was essentially a man-in-the-middle/evil twin -- a single channel BSS analysis tool which allowed for broadcast and targeted deauth injection along with a probe request monitor, all in one interface, and a DNS spoofer in the other interface. I used HostAP for network spoofing. Its the simplest exploit but was very interesting building the demo and the kids enjoyed it!
This is another good little attack piece to shove in!
Very cool. I love seeing these home made operating systems. Nice to see an in-house C implementation! The feature list is very impressive. Screen shot of GCC running in the terminal is straight up smooth!
Good to hear from such a long term user! I can't really see my enjoyment for the system waning any time soon; feel pretty at home with Gentoo. I hear that a lot about staying for the USE flags, and it's becoming a similar story for me.
I'll keep that in mind about the update frequency.
[] Do you enjoy building everything to the minutest specification, regardless of bins being available?
[] Do you like the idea of building/rebuilding the entire system into your hardware instead of performing a quick fresh installation?
[] Let's say you've been lazy with updates -- would you mind emerge ragging the CPU for 15+ hours?
(Disclosure: I love Arch but (believe it or not) I've been die-hard Gentoo for a couple of years, even got two versions of the same T-Shirt -- which I feel is appropriate)
I'm completely in agreement with you. There are very real experiences that people go through, that have similar outcomes including permanent changes in perception but we lack the common scientific concepts and language to discuss them seriously within that particular domain of knowledge.
Just got to level10 of Nebula, literally 15 minutes ago. Been doing levels in bed before crashing out -- It's really good fun so far! Highly recommend.
I heard about this one company that had a similar idea but implemented it via a high frequency acoustic signature; the higher the frequency the stronger the encryption. It apparently turned into this nightmare of competing signatures and people couldn't think straight near the more secure connections. This scent technology seems to be less intrusive.
When you get different scents, will the wiffi emitters automatically sychronised with other nearby emitters so the distinct carrier smells don't interact and cause service ambiguity?
Thank you for your reply
