  • Commented on Lying to the ghost in the machine
    WebAssembly is a idealised virtual machine code, which is designed to be easy to run[3] at high speed and to be a good target for compilers of traditional compiled languages[1]. It's power is in the limitation: it runs inside the...
  • Commented on What happens now?
    Well, no, actually: HANG ALL the priests [ Up to 9,000 children died in these 18 institutions between 1922 and the closure of the last such home in 1998. ] More info here How utterly revolting I grew up...
  • Commented on "It'll all be over by Christmas" (Part 2)
    In the mid 1990s I heard the likely true story of a support call to DEC. Paraphrasing: "Our VAX has fallen over". "Is there anything useful on the console?" "No, I don't think you understand. Our site is near where...

  • Commented on Follow the money: Apple vs. the FBI
    One of the issues that I have with biometrics as an authentication factor (DNA in particular) is that the failure modes can be horrendous. And by failure modes, I have read (unverified) stories of cars in Malaysia with thumbprint unlocking...
  • Commented on That "Annihilation Score" spoiler thread you're all asking for
