Despite almost everything being in one big repo, it has silos. Not everyone has read access to everything. Some code, like the important bits of Search, is only available on a need-to-know basis.
We use the nanos heavily at my workplace. I've seen people make a chain out of paperclips when their nearest USB port is too far away (and they can't be bothered to grab an extension cable).
That's like asking "Why are people still manufacturing bikes, you'd think everyone who wants a bike would have one by this point". Bikes generally have shorter lifespans than people, and we're also making new people-who-want-bikes all the time.
The government also can't stop you from robbing your neighbor, but that's not how laws work. Laws are about punishing you after the fact. If they catch you, of course.
It would be terrible to design it that way, but I think it's fine as a compiler optimization. Most of that datastructure is constant anyway, think of the memory savings!
Depends. The article didn't reveal which parts of her had which DNA, we just know that her eggs had different DNA than whatever they were sampling from. If she left blood behind and they did a blood test, it would come out as a match. If she left some other random bit of cellular structure behind, it might not match against her blood.
"Additional eKeys are available as an in-app purchase for a one-time charge of $1.99. eKeys never expire and can be passed from one person to the next by a lock Owner or Admin."
Have you considered buying solar-powered drones from Titan Aerospace before Facebook snatches them up? Probably a bit pricey, but they are marketed as atmospheric satellites.
Tried signing in with a gmail account and it wanted me to create a password. The gmail bridge seems to be functioning normally at persona.org, so what's the deal?
> Until recently(?) the primary JIT back-end for PyPy was, in fact, still the JVM.
This sounds false. The PyPy Features page does mention that PyPy will run on the JVM, but that it is incomplete there, and in particular they don't have their JIT ported to it yet. Do you have any source on that?
Depends, how good are you at creative writing? I can think of a lot of messages you might send to someone that you'd want to be private that aren't nefarious plots. Weird fan fiction. Deviant porn. Messages exchanged with a secret mistress. Depending on the situation, you might even want to give them a fake copy of your nefarious plot. Include more than one extra set of messages if you like and give them whatever keys you like in whatever order is appropriate.
Near the bottom they mention using more than one wheat stream to achieve something like deniable encryption. If they ask you for the key, give them the one that produces innocent-looking messages.
