That version of Quake is written in C and ran through a C->LLVM->CL transpiler. This is "written in pure Common Lisp" in the same sense that Emscripten applications are "written in pure Javascript".

It didn't actually directly track app usage locally, it tunneled all traffic through a VPN and tracked usage by monitoring network connections.

It's an extrapolation from the last month which was the highest revenue they achieved and roughly estimating from the chart total lifetime revenue was ~$200K.

There is no power efficiency advantage in today's actual high performance ARM chips. See the Cavium ThunderX2 server chips: their dual socket x 32 core system is generally slower[1] (though it is faster in a couple of benchmarks) and

Userland has been built with clang since 7.0. The kernels of some Android devices (Pixel 2/3 for example) are built with clang but seems like most still use GCC.

The uploader filed a counter-notice and Youtube put the video back. The fact that some of the videos got reinstated doesn't change that Apple filed the DMCA takedowns in the first place.

Probably the most notable thing is compatibility with the upcoming 5.2 kernel, otherwise just minor bugfixes. 0.8.0 came out just a few weeks ago and was a pretty huge release. It added encryption, TRIM support for SSDs, ability to remove

The sandboxing part isn't quite true anymore. You can use Desktop Bridge to package win32 apps for the store. These apps are not sandboxed in the way that UWP apps are though they are still kinda-sorta sandboxed (they can access any

Not really something any sane person would use GIMP for, but multi-layer GeoTIFF files are fairly common. GeoTIFF is just a TIFF file where the tags are used to store geospatial reference data. So you can have one layer contain elevation da

Bittorrent has a P2P streaming protocol called Bittorrent Live which was used to operate a TV service for several years but I have no idea how efficient it is compared to IPTV multicasting or central servers+CDN.

The model name with a number next to it is some sort of average (they don't say but I think it's geometric mean?) computed from all scores submitted from that particular model. It's not terribly useful because you have no ide

Science, Philosophy, and Human Behavior in the Soviet Union by Loren Graham is pretty good. It is more on the science side than talking about technological innovations, I'm not aware of any books in English focusing on that (supposedly

3950X and the single socket versions of new EPYC chips aren't NUMA. Instead of each CPU die having its own memory controller there is a central I/O die with an IF link to each CPU die.

Threadripper is expensive by consumer standards but you can still buy a 32 core 2990WX workstation with 64GB quad channel RAM, 1TB NVMe SSD, etc. for less money than a base model Mac Pro. Presumably the next gen Threadripper platform with P

SEV is a completely different thing than ECC. It encrypts the memory. RAMBleed reads raw physical bits which are encrypted and thus useless when SEV is enabled. The paper even specifically says that SEV and other similar technologies protec

This article isn't about embedded SoCs? It's about desktop CPUs that are readily available at retail. Embedded SoCs are a pain to buy from most vendors except the Chinese ones you can find on Alibaba.

GCC and LLVM have supported multiple code versions based on feature detection for a few years, they call it function multiversioning. As far as I'm aware MSVC does not have this yet.

What? Zen/Zen+ had larger L1 icache than Intel, same size L1 dcache and L2 and L3. Zen 2 actually decreases the L1 icache to 32KB but in exchange increases L1 associativity, micro-op cache size, BTB size, and L3 size.

AMD has already stated that they're going to continue with Threadripper. It would leave a fairly big gap in the lineup with nothing to compete against Intel's X299 platform. AM4 is lacking in memory channels and PCIe lanes. Epyc h

I think the whole system price basically ends up as a wash with TR4 motherboards being at least ~$300 and needing a ~$100 cooler, I'm assuming these consumer chips will continue to have bundled coolers. The 3950X also draws 75W less th

I have the Linksprite engraving machine[1], there are a bunch of companies selling the same design if you search for "CNC 1610" on any of the major e-tailer sites. It's called 1610 because the build area is 16x10cm, there are

I'm surprised I've never heard of this before. Toner transfer was always kind of a pain. Now I just prefer milling because it avoids all the nasty acid and lets you accurately drill holes and cut the PCB to size/shape at the
