Hence a == c will be false. But if you try to run the above program, you would see below output 0x5781c8 0x5781c8 true To get to know the reason wh...

  The latest on Java-on-Java: the Oracle experiment that is gaining momentum

What is Project Metropolis? The not so hush-hush Project Metropolis is all set to implement Java on itself – popularly known in the developer community as Java-on-Java. Oracle has released updates on its progress, and they are very encouraging. The project will focus on building a JIT (just in time) compiler that is written in Java.

  Additional steps need to implement to setup shadow-boxV2 OPTEE on Raspberry PI

We followed the Shadow-box v2 project from the https://github.com/kkamagui/shadow-box-for-arm to set up the trustZone on Raspberry PI modeB to protect the Linux Kernel. But got a problem when doing the step: [3.6.5. Activate Shadow-Box for ARM and Start Secure Pi!] to create the hash for the memory area. The result is not shown. If you met the same problem, this is what I did to fix the problem on my PI: 1.1  When we do the step [3.5.1. Copy OP-TEE OS with Shadow-Box for ARM and N...

  AI solves complex biology problem from scratch

An interdisciplinary, interuniversity group of scientists from Vanderbilt, Cornell, and CFD Research Corporation have created an artificial intelligence capable of solving complex scientific problems from scratch. The AI, called ABE (Automated Biology Explorer), “discovered” how glycolysis produces energy in a living cell by looking at a set of data and then squeezing it into a mathematical formula, just like a human biology researcher.ABE is powered by the freeware Eureqa softw...

  JavaScript: It's a Language, Not a Community

There's nothing like jsconf for bringing out the meta! Since the conference ended two blog posts have created a lot of buzz, at least within my own twitter bubble. First, Rebecca Murphey's JavaScript: It's a Language, Not a Religion. I take Rebecca's post as a cautionary tale about the dangers of hero-worship and the tendency to assume that the people we respect in one sphere share our views in other spheres. I bring it up here not because I want to discuss the content of her post but b...
