The Cell was way ahead of its time. Its security architecture capabilities was almost perfect, but they've screwed up the implementation and they failed to provide good programming tools. And, it was very very expensive.

While I agree with Patterson, I'd be careful with the expectations though. Computational engineering is highest tech. Whatever purpose, whatever specialization, processors are the central domain in modern technology and engineering.

I find it difficult to believe that IBM didn't see that one coming. I mean, what were they thinking? "They won't notice the pattern anyway!" IBM HR, probably. Were they really that careless? Or is it that somebody detect

As a teacher? In the US? Good luck with that. At least it might solve the personal problem of working off your behind just so you get something to eat. The profession of a teacher/mentor was once one of the most respected professions t

This reminds me of the fictional character of Walter White in Breaking Bad. Best advice I can offer in such cases - leave the country. Try your luck elsewhere. Teach internationally. Get paid premium.

If Einstein was still alive he'll probably say: "I've been publishing papers before it was mainstream!"

It's a transistor switching on single photons. It's not even light . Why not use proper terms instead of marketing mumbo-jumbo? What audience is it adressed to? I like the idea that a single photon is enough to make a transistor

What's wrong with simply stating that there are special transistors now that are capable of being switched with a single photon. But no, there are quantum transistors now which can be triggered by quantum light. It's appalling to

by dschuetz 8y ago
That's essentially what I meant. Thanks. Quantized light still is like "wet water", but at least it sounds less like some obscure/magical light from the magical world of quanta.

Right, according to this blogspot post, one could figure that what we've learned about entropy is completely wrong! But no! The net amount of energy inside an isolated system does not change. It dissipates evenly through the system, an

I'd like to see quantum gravity as a "commonly accepted theory". But it's not. It's a hypothesis.

She's a pop-science writer. She is a random blogger. She has a job as a physicist. It doesn't make her opinion a fact, just because she's a theoretical physicist with a job and a blog.

The title is misleading. It's an opinion from some blogspot blog without sources. " Aspects of theoretical physics not always taught in school" would be more appropriate.

I looked for footnotes, haven't found any, besides some other blogspot links and an aeon article. The title is misleading, there are little to none sources, the whole thing smells like an opinion and pop-science. I might not be a physi

To evaluate the validity of those facts, whom can I ask for advice? Because, I cannot afford years of study in physics to understand and assess the relevance of those facts to graduate school. Besides that, when we talk about facts , why i

Teaching is also a talent. Much like in singing or dancing there are people who excel in teaching, because they not only use the correct methods, but also manage to improve them, or adapt to circumstances when necessary. Very few people are

Facebook attempted such a thing already, and was caught exploiting it. VPN apps for the purpose of traffic control and monitoring are dangerous as they rely on some other party. I could do the same thing without ever needing a service for t

It's rare to read from such a sober-minded yet deeply philosophical world view. He basically outlines to most essential things in the universe - gravity and uncertainty. Everything else is a means to quantify the world to make it more

There is no way to control the iOS firewall via extensions in iOS. Meaning, it's still not supported, and what you see as "essentially" the same misses the point. I want to block connections of specific apps. What iOS ca

Apple could implement iOS-wide measures to prevent unnecessary network connections or data streams from sensors. They failed to do that. "Offending applications" exploit that incompetence Apple displays in the recent years.

GPS data for a weather app is not necessary, because it's way to precise for its purpose. Most of the time I need to know how the weather is elsewhere, or how the weather is going to be today. How does precise (to a meter) GPS data h

I asked a network info app developer why it's not possible to at least track and control network connections on iOS, like Little Snitch does (or did) for MacOS. "iOS doesn't support that". Well, duh? I don't even kn

This is just like when Facebook wanted to handle all of your iOS traffic via a VPN app for "secure Internet" reasons. "Trust us, you have nothing to worry about, your traffic is safe with us" and then they were caught an

Because Intel is that good in security and hardening, why not use Intel's newly minted own special secure Linux distribution? https://01.org/blogs/imad/2018/letter-industry This is almost like satire.
