Wireless happened, I'd think. People started using wifi and cellular data for everything, so applications had to adapt to this lowest common denominator, and consumer broadband demand for faster-than-wifi speeds isn't there. Plus

That sounds apocalyptic. What if street addresses were unambiguous? Think of the security implications. Anyone could just walk into your house. Much better to just have "local street 10 b" etc.

They're not aiming at replacing SQLite-in-C with SQLite-in-Rust, they're doing this so they can implement more additional functionality faster than with C's chainsaw-juggling-act semantics and the inability to access the prop

Yep. But from the point of view of running CPU-style code on GPUs (eg Rust std lib) and how the "thousands of cores" fiction relates those are less relevant. And for GenAI matrix math there's of course all the non-gpu acceler

This level corresponds to SMT in CPUs I gather. So you can argue your 192 core EPYC server cpu has 384 "vCPUs" since execution resources per core are overprovisioned and when execution blocks waiting for eg memory another thread c

GPUs having have thousands of cores is just a silly marketing newspeak. They rebranded SIMD lanes "cores". For eaxmple Nvidia 5000 series GPUs have 50-170 SMs which are the equivalent of cpu cores there. So a more than desktops, l

We don't know how to secure C codebases by manual review. It's been well known to security engineering people for decades. And has been wider industry and academic consensus for a long time. It's like "is man-made climat

This is conflating unambiguous addressing with internet reachability. These things are separate, it was also in the pre-address shortage IPv4 days.

Would be interesting if you know of any evidence about being an architectural hw limitation. Though of course the practical difference may be small if the DRM bootloader enforces loading the hypervisor through cryptographic checksums. But I

Apparently it's about software, not hardware - Qualcomm recommends running Android under a virtual machine (which lacks nested virtualization support).

Yes, this is the #2 direction recommended by the paper. Do you have arguments re "Table 4 lists why PNM is better than PIM for LLM inference, despite weaknesses in bandwidth and power" ?

Have a look at the traffic on your network with tcpdump, you might be surprised what's going on even if you don't have IPv6 internet connectivity. But yeah, bigcorp managed networks still often make do with v4 routing only. Beside

It's a good idea so it can't take over your dev machine. But not sufficient since it'll still F over whatever code you are working on resulting in a backdoored app getting deployed + infected dev scripts etc bringing interest

Yep, rfc19188 addressing leads to accumulating complexity due to workarounds (end-to-end addressing is simple, there are very good reasons for that design), addressing ambiguity, and various practical security problems.

Though just like with IPv4 most of the time you shouldn't build on assumed-secure internal networks.
