My favourite PalmOS game! The OS 5 version is well done in that it properly adjusts to any screen resolution, including ones that no device ever shipped with. I often use it to test rePalm builds on new hardware. The OS 4 version was not as

I read the whitepaper they published and worked at Apple at the time this idea was rightly pulled. I understand it perfectly fine and stand by my words.

No amount of my device spying on me is acceptable, no matter how cleverly implemented. The fact that your comment said anything positive about it at all without acknowledging that it is an insane idea and should never be put into practice i

What nonsense are you going on about? My Dram controller has no idea as to which bytes are part of my array and which bytes aren’t, so even if it tried to play along with your claims, it wouldn’t know how big my array was declared an thus w

100% wrong 8^(1/3) is 2 So according to OP (and you by agreement), upgrading my machine from 4GB of RAM to 32GB should double my RAM access time. Obviously, and demonstrably, nothing of the sort occurs!

Mathematically wrong, unless restated correctly: "accessing ALL memory at a given cache level is O(N^[1/3])". After restatement: trite and useless. Accessing any given one byte in the address space is amortized to O(1)
