It's usually called a global shutter, and it adds complexity to the sensor design, because each pixel has a tiny amount of "memory" with a gate and capacitor to store charge into. There is a signal bus that simultaneously mov

You would figure that overclockers would like to know when they have memory bit errors. There is a large overlap between gamers and overclockers.

That hasn't been my experience. I inherited a net5501 that encountered what seemed to be temperature dependent random hanging, on both Linux and BSD. I also found that the case was mildly frustrating to put together with all of the add

I wonder if machine learning will lead to worsening of the echo-chamber problem. "Error: The message cannot be sent because it does not conform to accepted groupthink."

The real meaning behind patent infringement concerns is that the source code contains clues to the "secret sauce" that the binaries don't make readily accessible. So publishing the source is publishing the restricted IP. Wher

Wouldn't this method also erase any EEPROMs on the die?

Right, I see what you mean. I just interpreted your post as possibly indicating that you knew of some specific publicized exploit.

Is there any evidence that suggests this might be the case?

Funny because I'm in IT and sometimes I feel like switching to embedded systems for almost exactly the same reason.

This is a pump-and-dump scam.

I don't see the cell phone idea working simply because the raw data from the radio receiver is not exposed to the user application. Similar for the FM radio in cell phones - all you really get is the demodulated and processed audio. So

A lot of CPUs will cycle-skip which causes worse performance than just manually reducing the multiplier. Especially for real-time tasks like audio or video.

I purchased a neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet from a surplus auction that included electro-optical equipment (big lasers and such.) The garnet is a nice pink color with a high refractive index. It's slightly bigger than 1 cubic

Every player could use the same pseudo random number generators with the same seed and predict the same random result instead of downloading it from the server.

Wire is basically using the Signal protocol.

Malware might be designed to run a kind of self-test to see if it's been tampered with, in order to A) prevent detection and reverse-engineering and B) discourage code reuse by other malware writers

In a VM the hardware is fake, and usually works on most OSes. The real hardware is the problem here, because it only has official drivers for Windows 10. The CPU is fine. Using a VM makes it more difficult to use some features of real hardw
