As well as a fast fix because you know what mobile cell or wifi network you're on.

My point is that the appearance qemu/kvm didn't really practically change the space much.

Everywhere in Intel will be subject to layoffs. My point was that the graphics division itself will still be around, as integrated mobile SoCs are basically the only revenue stream Intel still has a good handle on. That requires a graphics

Mainly because of the much larger attack surface of QEMU.

Eh, we just used stuff like bochs and vmware prior.

KVM is basically three components. * An abstraction over second level page tables to map some of a host user process as what the guest thinks of as physical memory. * An abstraction to jump into the context that uses those page tables, and

Good luck to her. That's one of the pieces of Intel I think will survive its slow motion implosion.

Pretty much all of the benefits provided by the hardware of lisp machines are provided by modern CPUs, just in more general ways. Most of the benefit was pushing their interpreter into microcode, leaving more of the data bus free for actual

A chunk of what you'd want (x86 alu flag generation) seems to be an extension that is incompatible with most of the arm architectural licenses which don't allow for custom extensions to user visible space. Apple is special here f

Well, it has a simple hardware decoder for what would normally be the first stage of the jit.

I'm not sure Altera would have had an architectural license. You don't need that to hook a hard core up to your fpga fabric.

I think the point isn't to expose this to normal developers, but instead do stuff like enable rust like poisoned states in locks.

What an incredibly Curious Marc esque blog post. And I mean that in the best possible way. : )

I think it's fair for someone to have the impression that defcon is a predominantly counter culture space, even if it really isn't.

by monocasa 1y ago
The difference being that I don't think anyone in their right mind would declare the internet as a whole as counterculture in the first place anymore.

Or, in a police state, the point isn't solving crimes. In my city, any protest over a half dozen people gets a police response. However they may show up a couple hours late to you being robbed, but will probably tell you to go to thei

I'm smart enough not to dabble in the particularly dangerous stuff, but genetic engineering is a relatively democratized technology at this point.

From a certain macro perspective, of no one is going to beat the Treasury, where is the Treasury going to get that money?

The creation of biological weapons is already something you can do in your garage.

There's rumors that ML played a part in the creation of the covid mRNA vaccines.

SBI doesn't attempt to handle that, just like EFI doesn't really handle that on x86. Just about every device your x86 computer uses looks like PCI (or on a bus hooked up to PCI), and is handled through those configuration mechani

As well as extra bits in the Z buffer to give it a 15.3 fixed point format.

Ohh, and then we could write the digits in octal. Interestingly, the N64 internally had 9 bit bytes, just accesses from the CPU ignored one of the bits. This wasn't a parity bit, but instead a true extra data bit that was used by the

You can preemptively schedule without an MMU just fine, just like there's nothing stopping multiple threads in the same address space from being preemptively scheduled.

The fact that you have to have side hustles to make ends meet as a teacher is one aspect of how they're overworked.

A lot of geopolitics that leads to invasion is more about groupthink among whatever ruling class than any actual resource gains. See Russia->Ukraine, US->Iraq, soon China->Taiwan.
