It probably does not help that the use of the lower ranges for LTE is relatively new.

I wonder if Eric Schmidt left the company because of this debacle: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/30/us/politics/eric-schmidt-...

I think with both DDR3 and DDR4, the number of bits in the row address depends on the DRAM density.

by yuhong 8y ago
To be more precise, I am talking about the DRAM shortage.

Part of the problem is that we have been running a trade deficit for decades in the first place.

It probably don't help that Intel decided not to officially support 8Gbit DDR3 and that not all Skylake laptops were DDR4. It is also funny that DDR3 ended up lasting more than a decade.

Worth mentioning that it is impossible to stick only one chip into a DIMM, though soldering only one or two chips on is common in embedded applications.

Is price fixing really happening though?

AFAIK 32Gbit is not even in the DDR4 standard.

And I mentioned in the essay that "In many cases, advertisers managed “remarketing” lists of “anonymous” visitors that was being tracked by cookies from a central console without thinking of the privacy problems, treating visitors almo

My favorite is the OS/2 2.0 debacle BTW.

Yea, the essay has other problems I want to fix too. What I am interested in most is the points about Larry/Sergey BTW.

And yet they still lobbied against it.

"He asked a Google engineer at a cocktail party whether he should be worried about his privacy." Something similar is what led me to write my essay on ad tracking and Google that tried to trace it back to Larry and Sergey: http:&

The fact that they require the name "Do Not Sell My Personal Information" is part of what I don't like in the bill.

Yea, I don't like the current debt-based economy in the first place that treats people as consumers to be extracted from.

What I was referring to is the sharing of remarketing lists. One example: https://analytics.googleblog.com/2015/06/remarketing-lists-f... https://analytics.googleblog.com/2015/11/share-go

I mentioned for example that "Notice that AdWords comply if all “personalization” features are removed for example. This included things like “remarketing”. I suspect that AdWords when it was first created in 2000 did not have these fe

I even mentioned the GDPR in the essay BTW.

There are also Google Analytics/Urchin though. Part of the point of the essay (and one of the hardest parts for me to write) is to figure out when they merged the tracking data after the acquisition. I would consider the DoubleClick on

There are other known problems with the essay as well. For example, I mentioned storage costs but it turned out to be more complex than that. The point is not only to provide an overview though but more importantly to trace back the problem

It is unfortunate that my essay didn't get much attention: http://yuhongbao.blogspot.ca/2018/04/google-doubleclick-mozi...

They don't use x86 segmentation and normal gcc should work fine.

>Edit: unless the code within the emulator is trying to run the BIOS within an emulator of its own. Turtles all the way down... Common with the VGA BIOS BTW.

What I am talking about is things like this: https://mail.coreboot.org/pipermail/seabios/2015-April/00902...

by yuhong 8y ago
Notice the special routines required for reading and writing from segments. A true 16-bit DOS compiler handles this for you.

by yuhong 8y ago
but there is also the VGA BIOS.

by yuhong 8y ago
It is not impossible to use gcc to generate 16-bit code, but it lacks support for things like near and far pointers.
