Whither USENIX?

Whither USENIX? 07/08/2004 12:12 AM
Bryan Cantrill: Wh ither USENIX? "The content of the General Session was academic in the strictest sense: it consisted of papers written by graduate students, solving problems in systems sufficiently small to be solvable by a single graduate student working for a reasonably short period of time. The problem is that many of these systems -- to me at least -- are so small as to not be terribly relevant."

Mitch Wagner sez, "I've been blogging the Usenix security conference here in San Diego, including a talk by EFF counsel Cindy Cohn:"

- EFF is deeply involved in projects to ensure honesty in e-voting. In California, she said, voters have the option to choose a paper ballot. "I'd like to see a significant percentage of people choose the paper in California. this will make the case to the rest of the country that this matters."

Many voting-rights advocates are urging people to sign up for absentee ballots--problem with that is that people order absentee ballots all the time, and legislators will assume the ordering is going on for normal reasons. Only people requesting paper ballots will make a case to legislators that people don't trust e-voting machines.

- EFF is also involved in a project called TechWatch, looking for technical people who want to be involved on election day, serving as, essentially, poll watchers, to document technical snafus on Election Day. More info and sign up on VerifiedVoting.org.

"I am concerned we will have some train wrecks involving the technology. We may not be able to prevent it but we can mitigate it and, more importantly, make sure it doesn't happen again."

PHP & Parrot (PDF)

PHP & Parrot (PDF) 10/28/2003 11:08 PM
Here is the PHP-Con Closing Keynote by Sterling Hughes and Thies Arntzen on running PHP on Parrot. Parrot is a virtual machine used to efficiently execute bytecode for interpreted languages. Parrot will be the target platform to which Perl 6 code is compiled. From their slides: Parrot is FAST! Generating a Mandelbrot fractal – PHP, 2.4 seconds – PHP-Hacked, 1.2 seconds – Parrot without JIT, 0.5 seconds – Parrot with JIT (Intel), 0.08 seconds I presume that PHP-Hacked is the patched PHP that Sterling and Thies released in August. I have been a sceptic about Perl 6 because it has taken so long, but this is impressive stuff.
