I run sel_ldr_x86_32 file32.nacl and sel_ldr_x86_64 file64.nacl on my Intel machine vulnerable to Meltdown and Spectre.
Given that even JavaScript can employ Spectre, I am curious if NaCl'ed binaries can. Are there any known vulnerabilities of NaCl related to Meltdown or Spectre? Does NaCl provide enough powers to binaries to run Meltdown or Spectre? Examples of such vulnerabilities would be escaping the NaCl sandbox or reading something from any memory otherwise unavailable for the application.

Writing my frontend app in Flutter/Dart, and my backend server using Aqueduct being written in Dart too, is there a tailored client that could e.g. reuse the models of Aqueduct?
Short anwser:
The Aqueduct is dead. Long live the Aqueduct!
it's been a long time since the last update.
To be precise, Aqueduct is not alive, not dead.
Can I ask a reasonable question here?
What's the point of using a framework whose users have long worried about the lack of updates?
P.S.
Excuse me if my question seemed to you on the contrary, not very clever.

Our current Development and Production systems are PHP v5.3.10/Ubuntu 12.04 environment. We Our new environment will be PHP Version 7.0.30/Ubuntu 16.04.
Is there a way to analyze our current PHP5.3 code and determine the scope of how much work would be needed once we port current code into our new PHP7.0 environment?
This will help give us a feel for how much work will be required to migrate from PHP5.3 to PHP7.0.
The performance is the big plus in PHP7, but the effort to migrate to it depends from your time/money and the traffic in the website, if it is heavy you should consider the migration as a real option.
For security reasons, maintenance, lots of important deprecated function, and the new cloud hosting services, I recommend to not use PHP5.3. Migrate to PHP5.6, can be a sooner solution for future problems. In the last days I have been experimenting hosting problems with mysql_connect(This extension was deprecated in PHP 5.5.0) function used in PHP5.3, and this is just an example

This question stems from curiosity more than anything else.
If one was to sit down and write a Perl module with the sole objective of getting that module to eventually become a part of the CORE load, what factors should they pay attention to? Here are a few that spring to mind, though I'm sure there are exceptions to every one of them:
Usefulness
Maturity
Stability
Core-modules-only dependency
Problem area being solved
Cross-platform compatibility
CPAN testers review
Reviews
Also, am I right in assuming that the Perl 5 Porters make the final call on whether to include something in the core load or not?

I am working on a VNC viewer application for iPhone, and connecting it to tightVNCServer. I have discovered that I can either:
Modify COTVNC to build my own version for iPhone
Use C-based libvncclient library and bind it with Objective-C code
Which solution will provide the most features supported by tightVNCServer, such as file transfer, etc ?
I'm going to quickly end your debate : both are licensed under the GPL license. And GPL-licensed code is not allowed on the AppStore (remember how Apple pulled VLC off of the store ?). So your choice has to be "none", unless you're ready to see countless hours of work go down the drain...
Take a look at TightVNC commerical license for a fast solution. It is not under GPL license.

Developing software solutions which already exist and are available for re-use (either commercial or open-source). AKA "re-inventing the wheel".
Same as above, but your solution being broken. AKA "re-inventing the square wheel".
Developing solutions for problems which do not exist.
Again, I'm interested in a more formal approach, e.g. TRIZ
Doing some research beforehand (1) and investing in solid software architecture (2,3) usually helps :)
When you're planning to develop something you always need to calculate the benefits of doing some and the things like the ROI.
