Does your mac support an external GPU? A mid to high end nvidia card may or may not outperform the M3 GPU at a lower or similar price. You can also stick it in a PC or resell it separately.

Modern Intel CPUs I am led to believe that issuing nops is actually slower than adding prefixes. I think there is work in the backend updating retired instruction counters and other state which still occurs for nops, but decoding prefixes h

There is almost certainly a performance and battery life hit. Each pointer dereference will trigger a lookup in the MTE tag table, and a comparison between the pointer's tag and the table's tag. So you have a decently sized chunk

Where did you learn that most of the slave owners were killed in the war? Most of the South's slave owning political leadership including Robert E. Lee and Jefferson Davis lived long and healthy lives after the war.

It's actually a very common class of techniques. Carbon-14 dating relies on the ratios of carbon atoms, and is widely used for dating younger stuff. However, its relatively short half life means that for older stuff archeologists need

Those aren't political rights, those are social norms. If a man does any of those things, it's frowned upon, but if a woman tried to vote in the 19th century she'd be thrown in jail. I'm totally on board with people wear

The speculation I've seen is that they're intending to steal someone's research, weaponize it, and using it against their adversaries.

I haven't read Ullman's memoir, but I'll just put down "Soul of a New Machine" by Tracy Kidder as a peek into hardware history you may find interesting.

Because on a map it's already implicit in where the pin actually is. You're staring at a pin in Westville Chelsea.

It seems like most of these new instructions and registers correspond to the original armv8 base isa. I'm going to go out on a limb here and suppose that's not an accident. Does anyone know why Intel thinks x86 needs them? Is the

Yes, on arm the branch type is saved in SPSR_EL1 in the BTYPE field. That stands for Saved Program State Register for Kernel Mode (Exception Level 1) and Branch Type. https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0595&#x2F

A few years ago when I was there, there were still remnants of that same Dave Cutler NT culture, especially around the folks who worked on minkernel/. I agree there are definitely shitty chunks Windows, but there are still some very so

Clang's ir is more c like. I can't find a link to a good example offhand, but if you pass the right combinations of flags to clang you can dump it.

Most modern CPUs (really SOCs) have an integrated GPU built in, which isn't half bad. Heck, the GPU often takes significantly up more space on the silicon die than the CPU does.

Looks like you will still be able to run 32 bit user mode applications under a 64 bit kernel. I'm not sure, but I think 32 bit guest kernels get the ax as well. " 3.3 Removal of 16-Bit and 32-Bit Protected Mode 16-bit and 32-bit p

msvc does not support inline asm for x86_64 code. Additionally, inline asm can be quite fragile, can impede other optimization opportunities, and it is easy to misstate your inline asm's invariants and side effects to the compiler.

No. In this context reverse engineering is looking at the assembly to understand what it does. Once you understand that, you can figure out how to exploit the code, by, sending a subtly malformed packet which will cause a server to write ou

The enum to tell what shape an object is costs something, probably 4 bytes. Storing the 8 byte vtable constant isn't so bad considering.

They're signed and I believe encrypted by Intel. The CPU will fail to apply a microcode update whose signature fails validation. Here's the best public discussion about the format of microcode updates I know of offhand: http:&#x2
