Using logging facades means that libraries don't need to update -- which is great -- but libraries were never directly vulnerable anyway. log4j is, to my knowledge, still by far the most common actual implementation of logging in the J

“Third party”. In this case it just means “not Amazon”.

I've worked at Amazon since 2007 and I can confirm it has gotten a lot better over that time, especially more recently. I have, in the deep deep past, experienced serious strife with the older policies, and obviously nothing is perfect

I think it's worth noting that the paper is from 1992, where much of the work you reference (such as widespread use of overloading in Haskell) won't have existed yet. I don't think it's unreasonable to point out that so

Work on the specification stopped in 2010 but it's not been removed from the browsers that supported it.

I think this is mostly answered in the README. This is probably the most relevant section: > The structure validation is simplistic by necessity, as it defers to the type system: a few elements will have one or more required children, an

Isn't the former what Mozilla Persona was trying to provide? A shame that was canned.

If you go to the Privacy section of the iOS app it's mentioned at the bottom with a link to the webpage ("Further customise your privacy..."). Not ideal you can't do it from within the app though.

This isn't the case, he works for Amazon. Unless he also works for Intel but that seems unlikely. Edit: Just to make this clearer you can see his email in the Signed-off-by of the patch under discussion: https://lkml.org&#x2

I had a look in Software Update and apparently iOS 11.2 is now available (not as a Beta release). Since people were reporting the Beta didn't have the issue, maybe Apple just released it?

Possibly he was using this poll data: https://twitter.com/DRMacIver/status/746810127584464896 ...but I don't know what the primary source of that is. Edit: Sorry about multiple broken links, I was klutz-editi

> Those languages used to introduce mutable wrappers and not a "to_string()" method. Yes! This is similar to, say, StringBuilder in Java. The difference is that ownership is intertwined with the type here. Strings are always ow

If you have a string slice (&str) you need to convert it to a String you own before you can mutate it, yes. In some other languages strings are always immutable, and mutating them requires creating a copy. In Rust if you own the memory

I think we're running out of good names for things, especially since Spark uses Snappy (compression) itself. It is time to build a tool on top of SnappyData called Spark.

I'm finding the fact that almost every page in the CIA site's 6-12 section has the same "classroom" stock photo to be inexplicably unnerving.

I think I heard the Amazon-supplied ePub converter can work better sometimes, but I haven't tried it. It may be the one on this page: http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?ie=UTF8&docId=1000...

People focus on these because they are usually exploitable through applets; as such they pose a direct threat to users. The recent issues have been mostly irrelevant to "enterprise systems" since so few use Java's sandboxing, and it's typic

This is true, although I find the default body text size in Bootstrap way too small, and often wonder if others do too. It seems to fit the "text wedged into elements of a Web tool" use-case it originates from better than longer body text.

I think cluster instances are always HVM, not sure about high IO.

I believe it's because the "normal". EC2 instances are paravirtualised through Xen, whereas the types listed are hardware virtualisation. Not sure though.

Would it be possible for them to just rely on the commodity chip and PIN readers that most banks (in Europe, or at least the UK where I am) use for 2 factor auth for online banking?
