Idea is to treat (ip, port) pair as single 6-byte endpoint address. Each endpoint would be able to run just one service (well, two, one for tcp, another for udp). Type of service would be determined by looking up PTR record. On the downside

That's the point. It's the mind that separates objects out from the global mess, from the single process that unfolds. It's a good thing in a sense that it allows humans to function in the world and create more humans. Downsi

Hmm, on my XPS 13 (9360) fan kicks in only after about 5 minutes with one core fully loaded, and it's not that loud. It usually happens only during Hangouts videocalls or heavy dev work. Browsing / playing 1080p videos / text

XPS's Atheros QCA6174 works fine with recent FW. I use it in AP mode in 5GHz band in ac mode, though I had to adapt a kernel patch from OpenWRT that ignores frequency regdomains. I've also tried to use Intel 8260 for this, but wit

I have XPS13 with Killer wifi (Atheros QCA6174). At first there were stability problems but they were completely solved with FW update from Atheros's github repo and a kernel update (to >= 4.9 I think). Later it turned out that an I

I don't have windows installed, but it's highly unlikely that it'll help. This feature is baked into panel firmware, and while Dell releases firmware updates for some models, there is no official fix for 9360 FHD. For models

I also own 9360 with 1080p panel for half a year. The only thing that bothered me was adaptive brightness (CABC) that was fixed in my case with an unofficial panel firmware at some risk to brick the device. Coil whine is perceptable only if

Yes, looks like this. And in addition in average human this pathway is limited to 300g amino-acids -> glucose per day if I remember correctly. Still what should happen if protein intake is tripled say from 50g/day to 150g/day?

Well, fat digestion seems to be effective even comparing to hydrocarbons. I think longer hydrocarbons including sugar have to be broken into fructose and glucose during digestion. Fructose cannot be immidiately consumed by cells, so it'

Have you tried zone plates instead of lenses? Feature sizes should be larger for IR than for visible light, so it's should be possible to fit enough zones to get some focusing.

It's quite possible that in SPEC benchmarks they used 2 Elbrus cores and 1 Pentium M core, so IPCs are about the same. And it's confirmed by 7zip benchmark. In theory Elbrus can dispatch 23 non-SIMD ops per cycle, it has only 6 in

Sure. Just in this case variant 2 is very unlikely. I'd say getting sources after buying one or two Elbrus-based servers would be a success for a company not affilated with government. Company I work for once tried to get linux kernel

Well, full translation would be "hardware support for loops, including pipelining". How exactly is pipelining implemented is not clear.

It's stated on official site [1] that it's based on Linux 2.6.33, and it looks like kernel and userspace are compiled for Elbrus ISA and run natively, without x86 emulation. There are no links to sources on their site, and they do

Here is more information from official site [1,4,5]: - native "Elbrus" ISA or x86 ISA, - Ebrus ISA is VLIW, can dispatch 23 operations per cycle (33 with SIMD), in-order execution, - it's stated that x86 code translation + re

I doubt that you could use NAND Flash as RAM substitute as it is right now. Basically it's a block device with page size about 8KB and erase block ~ 2MB. Data could be read and written only in pages, in-chip page load times are on the order

Actually it's quite easy to bruteforce by hand if you mention that point set has multiple symmetries. For example, you only need to start drawing lines from (0,0), (0,1) and (1,1). Any other combinations are derived by rotation and mirrorin

Dell U2711 is quite nice, good IPS and anti-glare, but it's not cheap (800-1000 USD). But in my case I consider that money well spent. At a recent Slashdot discussion a lot of people mentioned Yamasaki Catleap, it could be shipped from Kore
