Shortly before I left someone on the coding standards committee espoused the idea that good code was code where you couldn't tell who wrote it. I feel as though the last vestiges of the BillG era died that day.

Phillips is incompatible with thread lock assuming you want to take them out. If threadlock is not used the removal torque is actually less than the insertion and it shouldn't be a problem in this case.

It is mentioned in later patents, and regardless it is a specific part of the tool's behavior. Its continued use is based upon this fact.

Phillips screws are design to have the driver leave the socket if it is over-torqued. Frequently people keep going after this has occurred which results in stripped heads, but if you listen to what the tool is trying to tell you then it sh

When someone has time to consider their actions the blame has to be put on the person carrying out the action - not the one who gave them the idea. This is for a multitude of reasons: 1) People are not automatons and they don't carry

Money has always been around, but even "corporate" was not nearly as stifling. 90s era Microsoft code is quite colorful - as I'm sure it would have been at most other companies of the era.

Book publishing has a long tradition of publishing "inappropriate" content, and has never needed regulation. By contrast internet infrastructure is much more an oligopoly by nature of the technology. Much like the telephone has

I don't really get this "joke" but man do I hate the trend of removing any personality from code. Programming used to be FUN and a way to express yourself. Easter eggs exemplified this. Now its cold and business only.

Your conflating the principle of "freedom of speech" with the implementation in law. The social expectation of neutral service providers has been seriously eroded over the last 2 decades. We never had laws in this space because

I was serious, if this is actually the case you literally have to go where people of talent congregate. As you increase in skill those places become fewer - you may have to move.

You can actually refresh specific rows adjacent to frequently accessed ones by issuing ACT->Precharge command combos. Timed right it only comes into play during attacks (whether intentional or by coincidence) and therefore has little ad

Some people would question your experience, and there is a chance that you are failing to appreciate others. However you may also accidentally be the big fish in a small pond. If that's the case try to get to the bigger pond. If you

Although not evidence either way - were apple to include mitigation for row hammer its most likely they would advertise it as they do their other security infrastructure. Its about on-par with the encryption processor in the imac pro in te

They are probably immune to this specific implementation simply because the relevant bits are in different locations - but not to the attack in general.

Apple is using the same commodity DRAM chips as everyone else. I doubt they are immune.

Its not just about the compute, but also the data acquisition. You can connect directly to your ADC without extra glue logic (and in some cases use the one embedded on the FPGA). Also a GPU is a lot more expensive than a $20 FPGA.

Its not confusion, its a specific talking point used to advocate pro-censorship ideology. Arguing against the 1st amendment would be arguing against american values - this conveniently side steps that association.

If you sank it before containment was breached nothing would escape into the atmosphere and therefore there would be no fallout. There would be leakage in the ocean itself but its effect is more localized due to water attenuating the radia

Water is great at containing radiation, to the point that you can safely swim at the top of radioactive cooling pools (just don't go too deep). Should something go wrong, scuttling the boat is a much better containment method than wha

On the contrary it gives insight into something I'd always wondered about. How did a chat app get such big mind share - its clear the strategy was deliberate, and that it worked.

That trigger circuit looks pretty big. It would be very hard to find a spot for it in an existing layout without moving things around. Moving things around would invalidate their timing which would be noticeable to the chip designers. A f

In Canada it's between $25-$50 [1] depending on the test. The price of medical care in the USA has little relation to raw costs and if you approach it that way you will lose. https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/

A common way to implement this is to have a resistor that literally does blow open due to over current. Pretty much the same principle as a fuse which is why it has that name.
