Yes, absolutely. Itanium was designed with the expectation that memory speed/latency would keep pace with CPUs - it didn't.

You are wrong about this part: > The FCC is allowed to enforce a certain morality. As I said previously, the FCC is bound by the First Amendment. They do not have the power to restrict speech, whether on grounds of "morality" o

And what you said was incorrect. Under 1A, the only content which the FCC can ban outright is obscenity, defined as per the document I linked; see FCC v. Pacifica for context.

Two notes for the creator: 1) The CD4000 series is about the slowest logic family that's still on the market. Switching to anything else - 74LS, 74HC, take your pick - will improve your fMax dramatically. 2) Every IC on your board need

They don't have parts for the iPhone Air yet, but Apple sells replacement parts for all their other supported devices at https://selfservicerepair.com/ .

The "SIM card issues" article is a generic troubleshooting document, not specific to this phone. (It even mentions that some iPhone models don't have SIM cards.)

I think that the (unsatisfying) answer is that there's no established standard for how protocol selection works. nip04 and nip44 are completely different types of messages, and it's up to the client how it'll use and/or

Not precisely. {x} is a set literal; {x for y in z} is a set comprehension.

How robust is nostr against downgrade attacks - can an attacker induce users to use nip04, or are there safeguards against this? (I have no significant knowledge of the protocol; if this is a meaningless question just say so.)

They're less rare than you might think. Parthenogenesis ("virgin birth") occasionally occurs in some domestic birds, including chickens and turkeys. Due to the way sex determination works in birds, the offspring created this

Palm OS borrowed a lot of concepts from Mac OS - and it's no coincidence that many of their early employees came from Apple as well.

Two important notes: 1) Semihosting calls are extremely slow. They halt the processor until the debug probe polls the target, notices that it's stopped at a semihosting breakpoint, handles that, and resumes it. This can take tens to

Right. The surviving CFAA claim involves Automattic's takeover of WPEngine's plugin listing. I think this is a stronger claim, since it actually involves unauthorized access (rather than blocking access), and the judge seems to ag

by duskwuff 1y ago
I'd add that some of the WPEngine claims which have been dismissed were reaching quite a bit, e.g. that blocking WPEngine's access to wordpress.org constituted "computer hacking" under the CFAA.
