Sorry, didn't mean to send anybody on a wild goose chase. Glad you found a reference, and also somewhat glad that the reference says that the the term was "often" used -- maybe I'm not quite ready for the dementia ward…
Well, that was the whole issue. After marking the memory as not accessible via a data load, the CPU was still executing there and borking itself. He had to also mark the memory as inaccessible for code loads. Which,…

In an attempt to go fast and beat benchmarks and other computers, CPUs attempt to speculatively execute code, and then later undo the results of the speculation if it turns out it was wrong. This causes all sorts of…
Truly, indentation is the moveable feast. Even on ancient typewriters, you could adjust your tabs depending on what you are doing. And people who have dissimilar tastes in tabbage will certainly write stuff that doesn't…
> that criticism is usually posited by users of the language. Uhhh, no. Sure, it's posited by people who feel they are are forced to use it, but it's basically unlearning other syntax. Here's a study about people with…

More like asking if anyone in the Tour de France has credited a win to early use ofone of those little Fred Flinstone-style kiddie cars where they use their feet on the ground for locomotion.

It seems like the same sort of category error that some people make regarding free speech. Just as you can say whatever you want, but facebook/twitter/reddit/whoever is not required to give you a soapbox, you can…

A careful reading of your previous comments seems to indicate that you are completely against the idea of intellectual property in any form. That is fine. You do you. But, again, if such property exists, then a line…
So all the non-pixel-specific stuff is in a publicly accessible repo? So the pixel team just decided that they wanted to keep their kimono mostly closed?
Many commenters agree this is not a nice move by google. But is there any reason that google might have that they feel is legitimate? For example, delaying releasing source until they've had a chance to update all the…

> The notion of “your work is too similar to mine so I get to take ownership of it from you” That notion only applies to patents and trademarks, and it seems highly unlikely that it would ever directly apply to…
> Intellectual property does not necessarily have to be copyrightable The US recognizes exactly 3 types of intellectual property: copyrights, patents, and trademarks. There are also, of course, trade secrets, but if you…
Who owns the code if you built it with AI? Someone else! All they have to do is show it's close enough to code that was swallowed during training. Songwriters have been successfully sued for many decades for creating…
There are two different categories of patent issues at play here, and several different implications for competition. The first issue is on the purely physical level. The fabs (and integrated companies like Intel) fight…
Bleeding edge processor development is always going to be a patent minefield, even for RISC-V. Most patents are broad enough to cover more than one architecture. But there are now several RISC-V IP vendors, and ARM…
The confusion is deliberate. The Republicans are trying to strangle the IRS and outsource everything. The IRS, despite its many shortcomings, consistently tries to help people get their taxes filed. So when the…
No. They are fucking not. The site that was killed was the IRS direct file site. The webform is through the free file alliance, aka Turbotax and friends. The API requires you to jump through a million hoops. Heaven help…
