This would seem to have some similarities with Capability Hardware Enhanced RISC Instructions (CHERI). The project has matured to the point of a complete FreeBSD stack with nearly all packages building. ARM are going to…

I used everolimus, which works the same way as sirolomus, for a few years. Like a fair proportion of people taking this class of drug, I developed severe proteiuria. Large protein molecules making their way through the…

Don't blame central banks so much. They only directly control one lever in the economy, interest rates augmented by QE-purchase of company bonds in Europe & US. In retrospect, they've been caught in a downward spiral of…
The rationale is that the reference NTP implementation codebase was old and would benefit from a large cleanup. It was in a similar position to openssl in that the code was used by large numbers of commercial entities…

I believe global economies have fundamentally changed post GFC, so previous indicators may no longer be relevant. Interest rates have already gone below historic levels so it's not clear how economies will be…
