I don't disagree with your conclusions about managed platforms being better for enduser security, but for what it's worth a vast majority of botnet payloads are being loaded by drive by exploits, email based infections are generally rather

Having a deflationary currency is pro-citizen, it is pro-poor, and pro-middle class. People who have a high amount of debt relative to income (generally the poor, the middle class, governments) benefit from inflation, not deflation, as th

I'm far from a bitcoin bull, but shorting a market that's gained 500% in a few months is suicidal.

I'm not super up on os level virtualization providers, but I'm curious why exposing 8 cores is an advantage. Based on the ram sizing it seems like they expect to run 100+ containers per processor - so surely they're restricting cpu time per

ChromeOS isn't really about providing a fast booting browser, it's about rebuilding a secure platform on ISA's. There is very little overlap.

in linux cgroups (control groups) allow you to allocate resources to groups of processes, which makes it easy to ensure things like ssh or npre or your load balancer ping (as long as you run it out of band) still have cpu/mem even when your
