xz attack was an open source attack and it would be silly to assume that it was unique.
This opinion is a breath of fresh air compared to the rest of tech journalism screaming "AI software engineer" after each new model release.
Unexpectedly got nightmares for years after watching the movie Twister.
Didn't expect so much hate for this game... In terms of simulations, in 2002, the original game was light years ahead of its time. They did a lot of things right that it took the more popular mil sims years to get correct. I'd go as far as to argue it is one of the most realistic squad-based tactical shooters of all time.
My sister started a new position that involves HTML. She tried to explain an issue to me, but I'm not a web guy. I told her to send it to me on Monday and she sent this...
Lol leave. That is so many levels of braindead.
Get it in the schools. It's a bad habit from many people's childhood that they need to break. Make that original habit not suck.
You want to see a picture of me when I was younger?
I'm not sure what metric you're using to determine this. The bottom line is, if you're trying to get the CPU to really fly, using memory efficiently is just as important (if not more) than the actual instructions you send to it. The reason for this is the high latency required to go out to external memory. This is performance 101.
Just wanted to point out that the number 1 performance blocker in the CPU is memory. In the general case, if you're wasting memory, you're wasting CPU. These two things really cannot be talked about in isolation.
Guy from '95: "I bet it's lightning fast though..."
No dude. It peaks pretty soon. In my time, Microsoft is touting a chat program that starts in under 10 seconds. And they're genuinely proud of it.
Then, they look confused when I tell them I don't want the thing connected to the Internet.
In response to:
The xz attack was an intentional backdoor put into a project that was "OPEN and many eyes are on it." Also, it was discovered due to the way it was executing and not because someone found it in the source. The original assumption has been proven wrong.
