I would like a board with a 2-core Cortex-A73 SoC with a simple GPU, 2GB of RAM, ethernet, and PCI-E for NVME. For 20$.

Why not? Doing that with historical figures is pretty much what happened in the Superman movie when having his parents as teachers. It can be done with respect and honorably, in my opinion.

Why there's not generalized discard/trim capabilities on USB/SD devices? It should be "easy" to agree some standard on that.

In the US TikTok can sue the government, while in China they would face lifetime jail without trial by doing in China what they're doing in the US.

Both. MiSTer can output the original signal through the VGA output or through the HDMI digital output (e.g. and using a HDMI to VGA converter), and also it is posible to configure the HDMI output as a scaler (with different modes, from the

Good point, I would like Google using QNX for their mobile OS, too, because of the Hard Real-Time OS feature. Or keep using Linux, but putting more effort on it, e.g. adding better NDK support, without relying in Java at all, a la iOS.

This is an important step for having better RAM overcommitment in Linux (avoiding OOM and having less latency spikes). I hope more effort is put in this line. /cc Google, Amazon, Red Hat, SUSE, Canonical

I wrote a library with similar functionality, also with variable-size header (smaller header for small strings, and bigger when growing). With both heap and stack allocation support (contiguous memory for headers and data), Unicode interope

The biggest problem with videoconferencing is using movie video codecs (designed for maximizing compression, and not for multicast latency control) tuned/tweaked for the worst client. So the typical video conference server uses a hand

Wise move, in my opinion. I hope Python will do that too, eventually.

Try adding following optimizations to your binary radix tree code: 1) Path compression: avoid having intermediate empty nodes, when possible. E.g. replace root-left(void)-left(void)-left(void)-left(item) with root-[000]left(item). Because o

GameBoy Advance CPU (ARM7TDMI) is very close to first ARM designs: just three stage pipeline, without cache (with higher IPC, because of better memory interface and less pipeline stalls). Because of using a 4-byte wide 24 bit memory bus, it
