It's good to see Google crediting Retpoline to Paul Turner. As Senior Staff Engineer, Technical Infrastructure I wonder whether he was actually tasked with working on mitigation for these vulnerabilities or he came up with this in his free time.
- boulos 9y agoAs the article notes, lots of people worked basically round the clock on this as a top priority. That isn't to say they did nothing else, but Paul et al. definitely didn't just happen to do this in their spare time :). The relevant quote from the article: > For months, hundreds of engineers across Google and other companies worked continuously to understand these new vulnerabilities and find mitigations for them.
