I find this odd. I read these sorts of comments every time Amazon in mentioned on HN, how its literally only clones, fakes, and scams, and impossible to find legitimate products anymore. I have literally never received a fake/clone&#x

The L3 is split per core? I thought it was only typically L1 cache that was per core, with L2 and L3 being shared across the entire die.

Wasn't there a POC of spectre that used a counter in a webworker as a timer?

I highly doubt its enforceable. I can't try to enforce a ToS against you if I never even asked you to agree to it, or even _informed_ you that such a ToS exist. EDIT: Did some random googling about enforceability of terms of service.

> If you’ve created an account on HN, you’ve agreed to arbitration. Thats is not true. I just tried creating an account, there isnt even even a mention of any terms of service.

Your source is a random blogspot.com who claims that there's ambiguity because they consider the term "caused by" to be ambiguous. I stopped reading there.

Comeon dont be overly pedantic. If you call it coronavirus or covid or covid19 everyone knows what you're talking about. There is no confusion.

Imagine being brainwashed to the point that you purposefully get yourself killed because you only have a minute left to kill the others.

Isn't that just what amazon should already be doing? They need an option for people who are flexible with their delivery times, put in your order and they assign you a delivery slot when one opens up. If a bot can do that, then amazon

I've lost localStorage on PWAs before. But that was a number of years ago when I was still bothering to develop them. I also lost data in appcache repeatedly, then service workers came along to fix that, because the browser vendors&#

Jesus christ. It sounds like there's a time bomb in safari web views just waiting to happen. The timer is supposed to be reset every time you open the app, so there won't ever be seven days of opening the app and not using it. B

And most native apps crash one a week, we should therefore automatically crash every app once a week. Just because current apps are buggy doesn't mean we should enforce those bugs at a platform level.

"Were not overwhelmed yet so its fine" Cases are still growing exponentially. The hospitals in Italy are being overrun. They were being overrun in China.

The browser cache was supposed to handle this. Kind of stupid that you have to implement your own cache in JS now cause the browser can't be trusted.

I doubt the shutdown will be long enough to have significant long term impact. But maybe it will give people an appreciation for how nice the world can be with less pollution. A shift in attitude could cause long term changes in our toleran

Such a shame that multicast never took off. Would save tremendous amounts of bandwidth in times like this.

If you can have 30 years of better returns and try to sell right before the next pandemic, you can bet most investors will go for that. People already invest on much shorter timelines than 30 years.

Could also just bring back applets. Its what the web is doing already, slowly reinventing applets but worse.

God I hate "patent speak." One of the most egregious things about patents, is that if you _wanted_ to go implement something that was patented, the patent itself is a useless resource. So much for providing temporary monopoly in

That's true, however the new standards are often poorly designed and require Google level resources to keep up with the pace of change. They've basically ensured that another Netscape/Chrome cannot happen, they've pushed

People still programming in C want C, its why they're still doing it. But you can't claim there are "no better languages" when all you're really looking for is C.
