I'm kind of confused by AMD's and Intel's response. I thought both companies were building technology that allows datacenter operators to prove to their customers that they do not have access to data processed on the machines

There isn't even a Nonstop port of GCC yet. Today, Nonstop is big-endian x86-64, so tacking this onto the existing backend is going to be interesting.

These days, there are compiler diagnostics for that. There's also a pgindent tool, which will align the visual presentation of the code with its syntactic structure.

The core issue is that tzdata files do not contain the time zone identifier. If you are unlucky in /etc/localtime is not a symbolic link, you have to scan the files in /usr/share/zoneinfo to find a match. PostgreSQ

I don't do much banking in the U.S. system, but I'm assuming that ACH transfers get you pretty close to a giro system. Apparently, they are quite slow by SEPA's standards.

The existing giro system is the real Paypal competitor. Most Europeans had access to Paypal-style money transfers before they had email. Merchants probably want to rely on another party to maintain their integration, but there is no real ne

Even for compilation workloads, you need to benchmark beforehand. Threadrippers have lower boost clocks and (in the higher core count models) lower base frequencies than the high end Ryzen desktop CPUs. Most build systems are not optimized

I think it's more likely that it's caused by lack of read buffering in early implementations. The function that reads an SMTP command just reads whatever it can get from the kernel. If the connection is half-duplex as expected (fo

Intel's T variants in the Core series can be passively cooled. They have pretty good burst performance in case you need it. I don't know if there are laptops using them (I only have fanless desktop systems with these CPUs).

GCC Go does not support generics, so it's currently not very useful.

You wouldn't sue across jurisdictions, though? This would be an Australian suing under Australian law in an Australian court, potentially even an Australian entity.

That's how mmap and mprotect work today. Sizes get rounded up to the next multiple of the page size. Many applications using mmap do not need to know about the page size. I think it's even part of POSIX: “The system performs mappi

Surely that depends on the container? Podman doesn't artificially inject a systemd process as PID 1 by default.

This can be mitigated by limiting the amount of data that is transmitted with a single 3DES session key. I doubt that Gmail accepts that many gigabytes of data in a single SMTP session anyway, so I doubt it's impacted by this flaw. (AE

You might not have a systemd instance inside a container, but you still might want to switch user IDs there.

U+07E6 probably should be rendered as exactly like “SS” (not a ligature, and as a double-width character in monospace fonts). Inventing a separate glyph for it seems a bit silly and only hinders adoption. Even if it's a ligature like §

It's not entirely clear, but the bill may try to extend liability to the first sale (or even earlier) also in cases where this sale wasn't to a minor (however a minor gained access subsequently). That would be quite different from

It's come up before. HackerOne is not intended as a replacement for a PSIRT front desk, but many companies use it as such. It looks like Paypal still does this, for example.
