This article is part of a series; glad to see they were aware of the two sports that use roadbooks today: http://www.core77.com/blog/object_culture/roadbooks_part_3_r...…
The article might tout the idea of cyberweapons slightly too much, but I think Stuxnet indeed qualifies as one. I'm somewhat worried about these things. The problem I see is that we are becoming even more and more…
150 years is still far from 969 years ;-)
It would be an interesting situation for Nokia. First they announce that the company will be bet on Windows Phone, Symbian gets axed, and MeeGo will be put to the background. Many MeeGo developers saw the writing on the…
Thanks :-) Comparison to London makes me feel better about Buenos Aires. Puts thing into a context. I actually used to live in North London, in a semi-rough area. Even though London was an expensive mess and certain…
Could you describe your experiences a bit more? Buenos Aires seems to be one of the more interesting places in South America. Based on the typical news about South America (or Mexico), just landing on that continent…
It can be done in SW and it removes the need to implement it in hardware. Most probably nothing is preserved over a stand-by in a CPU, and when a CPU comes back online, it needs to be set up from scratch.
Quite a bit of stuff is done in assembly: - Low level processor set up: MMU, TLB, caching etc. - Early stage boot code. - Using instructions that are not normally accessible in C. For example, SIMD instructions, count…
That future might be happening already. Both AMD and Intel have products that pair CPU with GPU, ARM has Mali, NVidia's Tegra has on-chip GPU. I think discrete GPUs will become niche products in the future. Once…
It seems you are in a situation where I was a long time ago. I also was frustrated, because the CEO had the same attitude, the start-up never started making money, low pay, no savings. I was thinking about quitting for…
I was just pointing out a trend. It seems that more and more companies are trying to appeal to the start-up types. I'm not too optimistic that these big-corp-in-start-up-mode ideas will work, most people are not up to…
Notice the following "AMD says it maintains a start-up mentality even though it's a large company". This is becoming a trend now, hardly the only company touting this. My current company is doing the same. My old…
