My fault: I just compiled the instruction with an assembler instead of looking up the actual instruction from documentation. It makes much more sense: resetting ax, and bc (xor ax,ax ; xor bx,bx) will be 4 octets, DWORD aligned, and a bit f

You're right. I forgot that!

I remember a lot of code zeroing registrers, dating at least back from the IBM PC XT days (before the 80286). If you decode the instruction, it makes sense to use XOR: - mov ax, 0 - needs 4 bytes (66 b8 00 00) - xor ax,ax - needs 3 bytes

Every 3-4 years RAM prices spike. There is always an excuse like a fire in a factory. I believe the truth is 1) we have little amount of suppliers, and 2) supply is very near the limit of what can be sold.

I must confess I felt a lot of lust looking at the self color calibration feature. It is extremely useful if your work ends up in paper. For photography (edit: film and broadcast, too) would be great. My use case are comics and illustrati

Actually power efficiency was a side effect of having a straightforward design in the first ARM processor. The BBC needed a cheap (but powerful) processor for the Acort computer and a RISC chip was When ARM started testing their processor,

Comics Not just reading, but drawing them. For me nothing is better at inking than a Pentel Pocket brushpen. I do some lino engraving from time to time as well.

Totally makes sense. If you go to any mobile operafor you will see a lot of huawei hardware. From CEP routers and switches to multichassis routers in datacenters, and whole cell phone tower equipment. They own the nework, they will bette

I believe #1 is true; but not #2. It's just that those rocks are more common than we thought. And we thought they were uncommon because we weren't able to spot them... yet.

Glad to see Amoeba here. Last time I heard about it I was still in college X-D I guess academia was too far from what industry needed. They where thinking about the future, and we needed more stable boxes and sometimes a cluster for critica

WHERE are you located? In Europe there are a lot of companies that need to be NIS2-compliant but have little (or no) idea about it. A service offering might work... unless you want to retire before your 30th birthday.

I agree 120% with you... ... but I am wondering about how good you are using free tiers. IMHO the free tier in cloud/saas just offsets the initial costs of using the cloud/saas. So... unless you're really small free tiers wo

I believe all options you suggest are more than OK, but. Why don't you limit the trial with some capacity limits? Say, 1000 vms for installation. Of course, you'll need to have two artifacts: one for paying customers, and a second

I had a project related to this in a big telco about 10 years ago. We used Citrix because a lot of apps were not native (yet). Women in tech loved the concept: instead of carrying a laptop they could use the medium-size tablet we provided a

IMHO Cook is following good development practices. You need to know what you support. If you are going to change, it must be planned somehow. I find Torwalds reckless by changing his development environment before release. If he really need

I believe when we talk about this there's a big misunderstanding between Copyright, Trademarks, and Fair use. Indy, with its logo, whiplash, and hat, is a trademark from Disney. I don't know the specific stuff; but if you sell a t

First time you go to London, you visit everything else; but Greenwich is great. Probably because is far from city center, but totally worth the visit. I guess next time I travel to London I'll stay there.

If visit Greenwich Observatory you'll see Harrison sea clocks H1, H2, and H3. I had the luck (and honor!) to meet a volunteer guide - Stephen - that knew everything about clocks and explained it perfectly. When you meet him, say hello

Excalidraw and PlantUML Each one has its own benefits / drawbacks. PlantUML is great for version-controlled files. Excalidraw for throwaway diagrams and discussion. Ocassionally I draw comic strips with Excalidraw.

A lot of old hardware uses TFTP and RARP to boot. RARP just will get you the ip address, and the rest is hardcoded somehow in the machine - needs very little memory on boot. For BOOTP you need some intelligence to know where are your files.
