Nanotechnology vs. God

The U.S. is experiencing an apocalyptic showdown even as we speak.  In one corner we have nanotechnology, which could potentially end the world through rogue replication or uncontrolled alteration.  In the other we have God, who has - and this according to his fans, remember - killed almost everything on Earth at least once and will do so again the very instant he decides he wants to, under the euphemistic name of "Rapture".  The public is the referee and, amazingly, they're on the "I drowned all but one family of you people once" guy's side.

Making societal technology
choices based on religion is like altering the economy based on a
knowledge of macramé: it might be something you care about in your
daily life, but that doesn't make it valid for everyone else.

Remote debugging for ARM target board

By
Remote debugging for ARM target board With GDB one can both trace and modify code and data flow, and otherwise analyze the behavior of code, without explicitly changing any of it. Rather than run a full-blown instance of GDB on the target platform, you can use GDBserver , a program that lets you run GDB on a different machine than the one on which your program is running. The advantage of using GDBserver is that it needs just a fraction of the target resources that GDB consumes, because it implements only the low-level functionality of the debugger -- namely setting breakpoints and accessing the target processor registers and read/write application memory. GDBserver takes control of the application being debugged, and then waits for instructions from a remote instance of GDB running on a development workstation. Remote target needs to have debugging stub (gdbserver), The gdbserver is also referred to as the 'stub' and must be cross-compiled for that targ...
