Hooking code you don’t own is typically playing with fire. Because Microsoft wrote the code, they’re generally in a better position to understand when it is safe to do so.

Glad to see Apple providing APIs that go beyond the bare minimum they ship with on iPhones

Why though

> the government knows best, give us all your money and we will take care of you and save the planet

Yeah this is kind of explicitly what most people living there seem to want


California's pretty big, possibly too big, and the dense population centers in the Bay Area and SoCal may be dominating state-level politics at the expense of regions with different economic and political interests.

Which seems like a reasonable way to go about it? If you’re in California and taking advantage of the benefits the state offers, you should be contributing towards it?

If there was a way to do FTL communications you’d expect that Jane Street would have found it already

I wouldn’t really say it compares to entitlements

I’m confused why they can’t just write a sandbox profile that does the equivalent

Are sandbox profiles (or how to use them) officially documented anywhere (as non-deprecated)?

They just got burned by the documented usage of sandbox_init() going away (which didn’t even get a mention in the release notes), I can understand why they’d be unexcited about moving to a different deprecated/undocumented API.


It's an API that a lot of software uses (as opposed to the thing that they were using, which ~nobody used)

Who is "they" ? AFAIK the OpenSSH team focuses on the OpenBSD version and others people/teams use the new releases to create/update a portable version.

So I think it would be up to the team that ports it to Apple, so I think the "Apple Team" is the ones who would worry about sandboxing.


OpenSSH -portable is maintained by the OpenSSH developers, who are also OpenBSD developers.

I only skimmed the paper but it doesn’t see particularly dense, mostly just relying on college math?

It's 50 pages and cites this other paper in the same repo:

OpenAI. An explicit power saving for the exact discrete Fourier transform.

Here's a random excerpt:

8.3 The middle transform and the final permutation The factor QFt in (35) can be computed from a cyclic convolution and two pointwise phase multiplications. The chirp identity below performs the frequency change in Q without applying Q as a separate permutation of the array. The second identity shows how the retained source permutation R cancels when computing a convolution. Here ∗ denotes cyclic convolution on the product of the coordinate groups and a dot denotes coordinatewise multiplication.


Sure, I don’t see what’s horrible about this? It is a lot to read, sure, but it doesn’t seem unreasonably advanced

Yeah sure dude they’re going to do nation-state level silicon attacks against the key material in that sensor
