   I checked archive.ph, and they did not have a copy of this article. I requested that they make a copy of it. It is currently #11 in queue. Hopefully, they will be able to copy the whole article. No, I am not able to alter what it archives.

   If we are going to be specific, 64-bit ARM (in the form of AArch64) arrived in 2011. It would seem to me that Intel and AMD were not friendly to custom designs at that time, and MIPS was not significantly evolving. A fast, low-power CPU tha

   These seeds of the present were definitely sown in the past. We very much should not have defended British Petroleum (BP) in this way. Venezuela was allowed to nationalize similar assets, with consequences. Iran should have been permitted t

   "LED Filaments" are a more direct example of phosphor-coated blue. Most everyone has seen these now, in "Edison Bulbs" or elsewhere. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LED_filament

   I upvoted you, and I think that was quite interesting.

   That would actually imply that an OH group replaced one of the hydrogens, forming an alcohol. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_(chemistry) So Benzol is not benzyl alcohol. Edit: this is not what I was expecting.

   "Recently, mosquitoes and mosquito-borne parasites have developed resistance to chemical treatments and antimalarial drugs." This seems similar to phage therapy, in that the treatment continues to evolve along with the target. The

    In 1986, I made nylon, and I am 98% sure that we had benzene.

    You have two choices. UNIX epoch time is defined as the number of seconds since 1970/1/1 midnight. You can do those. I think there is also Julian time, which incorporates the Gregorian skip. It is stored as a floating point number

    Sophie Wilson (ARM instruction set designer) was very enthusiastic over her "Firepath" architecture that had VLIW aspects. It was targeted at DSL modems, and I think the platform has faded and is now somewhat obscure. https:&#x2F

    The CDC 6600 had a very odd architecture. It had several I/O master processors, but the floating point engine was the slave. This was prior to silicon microprocessors, so these processors were laid out on circuit boards with arrays of

    I don't understand where the rest of the parent universe is if all of the matter has emerged from the event horizon. Twisted into a new dimension, perhaps?

    Yes, it was obvious that the Windows 8 focus on tablets (and Windows phone) would not work well with Aero, since their GPUs were lacking.

    You likely mean the "Aero" stage. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Aero While many express nostalgia for Aero in Windows 7, Microsoft dismissed it in fairly harsh terms: 'Microsoft called the Aero

    The platform that we each hold is the most powerful abstract analysis machine known to exist. It may be, by the end of my life, that this will no longer be true. That would be poignant.

    This article asserts that white blood cells are the target, but we also know that (within the brain) astrocytes and [iirc] microglia can bear latent infection. Is such a carrier capable of addressing latent reservoirs inside the blood-brain
