It’s probably implied by something deep in the TOS.
What does the phrase "blood sport" mean here? Giving up literal blood sports seems so obvious as to not be worth mentioning, but metaphorical ones so vague that there's probably a better way to phrase it.
Microcode updates have to be rerun every boot since the updates aren't stored. Modern chips use only signed updates. I'd be pretty surprised if they were successfully attacking chips through this mechanism. There are so…
I should really read that paper, since I'm sort of confused by the threat model. Arbitrary queries seem like they would defeat the point. So I'm assuming this "using a secure, authenticated channel to communicate out,…
Not without CPU support. Intel SGX, AMD SEV (sort of), and ARM trustzone (if you want to do a lot of work) make this possible.
People fall all the time. Climbers test movements by doing them (and most don't work). Honnold left chalk marks on key holds on freerider to ensure he grabbed the right pieces.
One of the big selling points of x86 is backwards compatibility. If you have some OS from 1990 you can still run it (without emulation or virtualization, so long as it doesn't depend on clock speed), which is pretty…
Probably because the perceived skill difference between this and many other modern jobs is small. I can imagine people being incredulous that this is skill rather than something less deserved (luck/situation/...). The…
All you need for constitutional reform is a 50% majority on a referendum. That seems way too easy.
It's a comic that oversimplifies philosophical arguments and (often) makes fun of them.
It's not that 'having' willpower is bad, it's that the concept is misleading. Pretty much any story where someone changes themselves (or tries to) can be coerced into an anecdote about willpower. The point here is that…
There was an article earlier this week on HN about the effects of stimulants on Chess Ability that was oddly consistent with this: https://worldchess.com/2017/01/25/special-report-new-study-f... In particular, players…
Probably means that upgrades are done in-place. They don't move the VM between machines, but they do something like move it from the old process to and upgraded version (or in some other way upgrade the software…
It's a solid book, although I don't recall the bit that you're citing. I didn't read it that thoroughly. Started it and realized that I'd rather work towards 5.13 than the summit of Everest/Denali/whatever.
Probably not (but who knows, you could probably use this as part of a fuzzer). Instruction emulation is a superset of instruction decoding. You need to decode and then emulate the behavior. Aside: Instruction emulation…
Not sure what is meant by that commenter, but weight loss and strength gains are common goals which running isn't the most efficient at achieving. Obviously, it still impacts these and, obviously, those aren't goals for…
I can't tell if you are trolling: Many parts of the world don't have ample sunshine or nice weather, particularly in winter.
Fun fact: physical addresses will still have at most 52 bits, despite linear address space having up to 57.
Recent MacBook pros use the IOMMU for isolating PCI devices. With that, the devices can't read arbitrary ram (if Apple configures it correctly).
This is definitely the result of Snapchat's acquisition of Epiphany Eyewear back in 2013[1], which was a startup that made something very similar. [1]https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epiphany_Eyewear
An open source version (remake?) of the game exists[1]. [1] https://www.openttd.org/en/
