When I read this, I expected there to be some discussion about the chain of custody, verification of the signature of microcode updates, or possible injection attacks, but none of that is mentioned here. I think those are the real reasons t

The problem is that the higher end GPUs are actually the same chip as the lower end GPUs. The lower end GPUs are where the manufacturing process had an error and thus they fuse off a core. All that to say that they cant manufacture a high e

It is true. Abstraction means that you dont have to worry about some lower level concerns. With computers, the rabbit hole goes quite deep. High-level language (C/python) Assembly language (att/intel) Byte code Micro code So, with

There are a few different nuances to this question. Can it be done? sure: let bar = await foo(); return bar + 1; can be converted to: let resultPromise = foo(); while (!resultPromise.isComplete()){ sleep(10); }

There are certain classes of errors that it prevents. E.g: Thread1: a = 0xFFFFFFFF00000000 Thread2: a = 0x00000000FFFFFFFF One might think that the two possible values of a if those are run concurrently are 0xFFFFFFFF00000000 and 0x00000000
