I'm always at a loss with this argument. How does chasing cheaper sources of energy that also happen to be renewable hurt the poor? Gas generators cost the most per kWh to run. Our electricity prices rocketted because of natural gas pr

Most child abuse happens in the room where the child is. It's not really a hybrid working situation.

How much slower? - we diable speculative execution, so every conditional branch goes for 1 cycle to the pipeline depth (5, 10, 20 cycles) to evaluate. Probably a 2x to 3x hit on performance. - we disable prefetching, so every cache miss now

Agreed, and I wonder if we'll see the adoption of "security hardened" CPUs which sacrifice performance features for non-exploitability. You can have one or the other, but not both.

As a CPU engineer, I can say that spectre highlighted channels of information escape that weren't previously considered as vulnerable. That's why it kicked off a new batch of exploits. There was a new idea at the heart of it and o

That would prove that they'd done it, but not that anyone knew how (including the original authors). If this is going to be useful, we need to know how to make it.

Make sure all security critical state is initialised to known values at reset, then have very tight tolerances on your power watchdog to initiate reset. However, that doesn't make for a stable system when powered from batteries.

VSCode is very much a fad, much like Eclipse, Atom, Sublime and any number of others before it. Emacs and Vim just keep going whilst others fade away.

Indeed. How do they handle that in modern versions of the game?

I agree, but it allowed meta to say they had a bajillion users from day one, and make the news. Nothing worse than an empty social network to make people run away.

What I'm not getting is... 1. You've got a cache miss 2. You need to evict something, so look at the next item due for eviction. 3. It's a candidate for promotion, so you reinsert it. 4. You still need to evict something, s

Sorry, but no. The leaders in the Rust community appear to be particularly tone deaf and on a power trip. I think the explosions going off in their faces are needed right now.

Exactly. Telling someone that holding hands isn't your thing is fine. Making them feel like they're abusing you if they do it is not.
