Neurodivergency, or whatever you might call it, sucks, at least during childhood. Ten times so in a family-centered society. I had a mild enough case to grow up functional and independent, but if not for that… I totally see how one might ch

> Corolary: submarine datacenters are much better than orbital datacenters Yea, except datacenters also need connectivity. And submarine connectivity, while not particularly expensive, is quite vulnerable - even more so than on land.

This sounds pretty similar to Java's array-of-templates problem. Is it really more of a problem than parent pointers?

At that point they might skip the bonfire part (or the locals would without asking their permission), which is kinda the whole point.

> the densest 64bit ISA Because all other 64-bits were designed with no regard to density too. On 32-bit (and thats where density matters) it's sill worse then Thumb even with compression extension.

I don't think it's any good for that. It's relatively narrowband and not the frequency you usually have issues with EMC on (5 to 6GHz - unless you are specially transmitting on this frequency you are unlikely to emit anything

"Moore's law" is a marketing gimmick. The real physical law that held for decades is Dennard scaling, which stopped to apply already in 2006 once transistors got too small so short channel effects and gate leakage kicked in.

Yea, but governance structure can be changed on a political whim. .io is efficiently governed as a gTLD now, even if it is a ccTLD. While .com/.net/.org are generic and governed by ICANN, the registry is VeriSign, a USA-based comp

Same applies for .com/.net, except it's USA's politics. Which you may or may not consider more reliable. But yea, ccTLD domain hacks are pretty damn stupid.

A friendly reminder that a 0-day is a vulnerability that wasn't known until after a malicious actor exploited it. If someone publishes a PoC, it is not a 0-day, just a vulnerability.

Depends on the application, of course. For "google replacement" they are trying to sell it as - it's absolutely essential, but even then it works like crap. For coding… Maybe it's not so essential? Yea, it would not know

Gyrotron isn't quite a maser, more akin to a free-electron (i.e. electron beam) RF source. AFAIR (might be wrong, but based on what I could find there: https://www.thinkgeoenergy.com/wp-content/uploads/2021&#x

Intel wanted to go full 32-bit with capability-like segments right after 8080 with i432. It took way too much time to design, so they released 8086 as a stair-step to 432. It still took too much time, so they released 286. And when i432 was

It might have worked better if x86 had general-purpose registers where every register could work as a segment. Or maybe just many more segment registers. But with only two data segment registers to play with and quite cubersome (and slow!)

Than you can skip the hollow state part altogether. And any plastic-package parts would screw your vacuum up badly - if it survives sealing and bakeout that is.
