The headline is definitely sensationalist but there are threats and missed opportunities on Intel's horizon and past.

The lure of mobile is the upgrade cycle as those are much shorter. The same, short upgrade cycles were a boon for intel in the hey day of desktops/laptops.

The bigger threat the article fails to focus on is ARM.
Singularity for apps has always hinged on write-once-run-everywhere. Intel hasn't been able to compete with ARM lately and it seems that ARM is moving into Intel's turf. A few months back Microsoft launched windows 10 on ARM -- that's an inflection point. Apple relatively recent iPad Pro also continues to blur the lines along with other initiatives around app continuity (Mac/iOS) or the Nintendo Switch's hardware continuity that offers a glimpse into what the same thing could look like for mobile in general.

It's not for Intel's lack of trying either. It's just that ARM got off to a good start while Intel failed to make in-roads with Atom and whatever else.

As a game dev in a small studio that runs on git, I'm so exited to see where GitVFS goes, and especially since the announcement they're working on macOS drivers. We're pushing git to it's limit, and it would really nice if we wouldn't have to switch to another system (git is mostly great, and we're all good at using it, even the artists). GitVFS seemingly solves all our problems in a really slick way.
I mistyped in my previous comment: I don't make the eggs with Spanish olives, I make them with black olives. I find Spanish olives harder to cook with because the flavor can overwhelm other flavors, but I do eat them alone and every once in a while find a recipe that works well with them. I cook much more often with black and kalamata olives.

But as cloud service provider grow stronger, they will begin to make their own chips, like TPU. That is a much bigger threat to Intel. Essentially, as Moore's law is effectively put into an end, people will seek to make their own customized chips, CPU will be marginalized as time goes by.
Bookmarks are great in theory, but in practice they have a few issues:

1) The API is poorly documented, and behaves differently on different macOS versions

2) Error reporting is really bad. Sometimes “opening” a bookmark fails, and there’s no indication why. The error message suggests that the user should change permissions in Finder, which is incorrect and misleading

3) It’s really easy to forget to “close” bookmarks, leading to leaked kernel resources (which might be one reason for 2)

4) Issues with code signing or the keychain can cause bookmarks to silently fail to open. There are no error messages that suggest this is the case, the only way to fix these problems is to search Google and try random things until it starts working again.

Bookmarks, just like the whole sandbox API, are a good idea in theory, but they suffer from poor documentation and extremely poor error reporting, making them unreliable. It’s no wonder developers are reluctant to adopt the sandbox unless they want to distribute their app on the App Store.

This was only for non-departmental workstations. For computer labs run by single academic departments, the root passwords were not generally public.

The command

tellme root

would print out the root password for the public workstations.

The command

tellme off

would spew insults at you.
The file open dialog does not return a bookmark. It just returns an URL, and your sandbox is extended to get permission to use the file. You can then create a bookmark, if you want to keep using the file across restarts of the app.
That's absolutely glorious.
Of course. It still works right? :)

To clarify, I was talking about RAM, not flash. Binary size is still a problem, thats true. And yes of course you need to go the no-std route, but it works.
The picture at the beginning emphasizes ARMs rapid improvements.

It only goes out to 2014. It leaves one with the impression that ARM will soon pass Intel in performance.

This would suddenly eat into Intel’s profits.
Exactly -- the key thing is the historical cost structures of the high-end makers makes low-end chip making highly unattractive which was why it was easy for Paul Otellini to say no to Apple to make chips for the iPhone.

In the end, low-power chipmakers like ARM have no where else to go but up -- they can slowly move up-market and over time, enjoy the same high margins but at much lower costs relative similar to entrenched players like Intel.

I agree with that sentiment. There's something semi-nonsensical about application specific currencies, when the application does not involve some sort of distributed computing.
The HTML stuff mainly abstracts Three.js objects for faster development and better composition. Since Three.js is already an abstraction of WebGL you may have more luck with it by making a threejs plugin that "hand meshes and a camera position" to the Three.js scene/geometries.

But honestly my experience on this subject is that it would be much more manageable and productive to make the game directly with A-Frame or at least with threejs. If you need a particuliar behaviour you can go down from A-Frame to threejs and from threejs to WebGL and build the relevant components/plugins.

You apparently do not understand the legal concept of 'conspiracy' nor do you understand what 'entrapment' actually means in practice. Until you do it would probably be wise for you to stop sharing your unfounded opinions about the law or else preface them with a big, bold statement like 'I have no idea what I am talking about here, but would like the facts of the case to be read in a manner that matches my political whims regardless of existing laws and precedent.'

If the facts, as presented in the article and linked complaint, hold up in court then the conspiracy charge is likely to stick and any claims made regarding entrapment will not be made by the defense because counsel for the defendant is unlikely to harbor a desire to be laughed at in court by a judge.

Ancillary Does Not Mean Optional
Ask HN: How to help someone going through depression?
I have a friend who lives about an hour from me and I recently found out that he had secluded himself in his room for a few months. My friends and I have been trying to invite him to go out but he doesn't want to. All my friends are saying, "He doesn't want to hang out, just let him be", but I'm worried about his mental health. Today I invited him to my birthday dinner (6 people total, all of whom he knows) and he refused. His parents have given up on him, which is really sad for me to see. Is there more I can do to help?
No. You can spend 10x as long downloading random libraries and utilities looking for the perfect one than it would take to just write the function you need, and then you haul in a massive stack of dependencies that makes your project fragile and your build times long. I see projects now with literally hundreds of external dependencies. And if one of them breaks or suffers a security compromise you are toast. Say no to PyPI, NPM, Github and all the rest.
Nobody is "concerned" about the convict's reputation and future employability. You are misreading people's statements and thus misunderstanding their points. Namely, that the justice system serves a greater purpose than simply making you and me feel better and causing harm to perpetrators.

What point is there in discussing the so-obvious-it-goes-without-saying good-bad polarity of this situation? If we myopically give in to our emotions, rather than dispassionately examine the best course of action, then we'll miss an opportunity to improve the system and deter future incidents.

Stated another way, by attempting to redirect the course of this conversation, you are saying that virtue signaling by pitying current victims and demonizing the perp is more important than preventing future victims. If anything is highly disturbing, it's that.
Except they wouldn't. It took Apple a decade to up their silicon to a level where it is now. For most of that time, their activity was a money sink for them. And even today, even with some of the best talent in IC design one can get in USA (PA Semi and its veteran designers from HP, Sun, Freescale, and whatever else was remaining of American semi industry), their chips are still half outsourced, 70% external IP if you remove SRAM from calculations.

Apple is company with an own silicon, but it will never be a true microelectronics company.

Google's TPUs are another examplary case. Goog did spare no money to get into the market first and secure a tech/platform lockdown. Yet, what took them at least 5 years, and extremely expensive to make reticule limit chips, was bested by a no-name Chinese fabless that blew TPUs out of the water on power/cost/performance ratio.

All American dotcoms that are actively trying to get into hardware are oblivious to the fact that there is an inherent difference in between a hardcore engineering company to a company whose topmost technical expertise is underhanded web programming.

Where I work, the company has a TLS 1.2 proxy as discussed in the article. The stated purpose is to intercept malware. It frequently fails, as the fine article states, and people then either use their personal phone and 4G to wifi, or proxy traffic over ssh to a server they have at home. I can't imagine it's anything but "something must be done, we're doing something."

Furthermore, as most large companies install these, won't malware authors just start proxying C&C traffic over ssh on port 80? Or use other non-interceptable secure channels?
> Mobile is a decelerating market, while cloud and servers, where Intel has a huge lead is an expanding market and profitable.

No, it is not decelerating, it's still growing [0]. Besides, demand from other low-power applications such as IoT will only lead to increased demand for low-power (mobile) chips.

> In 2017, Intel's revenue hit an all-time high, as it did the year before, and its stock is an all time high. This is not a company "fighting for its future."

" ... as Microsoft shows, revenue is a lagging indicator in the technology business." -- pg [1]

Given enough time, all investments will eventually mature.
In other words, revenue is about the past -- reaping the rewards from mature (technology) investments. Growth is about the future -- future returns can only come from nascent (technology) investments.

Growth in a new product with lots of potential applications is a much better indicator of a company's potential to continuing earning returns in the future, before that product reaches maturity (and revenue attributable to that product starts to decline). Intel needs a new product category to future-proof its existence.

Speaking of Intel failing to innovate, has anyone seen Intel's 10nm process? Canon Lake was supposed to be out in 2016 and it has now been pushed back to mid-2018. There was a super brief update about it at CES [1]. Makes one wonder if the future is not arriving on-time as previously expected.

There's a fair number of inkjets that use a 5-cartridge system. There's the usual cymk, but then there's an additional pigment black cartridge. Cheap ink to print photos, more expensive ink to print text. Works great in my experience.
To be fair, that is the response to all 'Why is X acquiring Y?' questions, and it's a terrible answer.

M&A is hard to do right -- most fail, and a staggering percent have all the surplus delivered to the seller instead of the buyer. See: https://www.mckinsey.com/business-functions/strategy-and-cor...

The real answer would speak to why (Intel thinks) this deal is not like the average, unsuccessful deal, and specifically why they would be able to use Broadcom's assets better than Qualcomm.

The answers here probably have something to do with datacenters and energy/heat efficiency gains when you stop being fabless, something to do with anti-trust avoidance (qualcomm is limited by anti-trust concerns much more than Intel is, without those limits the value goes up), and something to do with cost and workflow concerns. Intel has a substantial risk to their current model, which is already hitting something of a natural ceiling of cost per manufacturing facility, driven largely by precision requirements -- that ceiling is what stopped Moore's law, I think, because no one can build a facility that costs even more money than Intel -- and developing business processes that can deliver classic Intel improvements in a more fabless or fabless-friendly process could reduce that risk.

This is all pure guesswork, but I think it gets closer to the actual discussions inside the companies.
The site is quite good but appears to be extremely dated. The last update to the Newbies page (http://www.linfo.org/newbies.html) was in 2006.
A-Frame is incredible, it is both powerful and flexible thanks to its component system. You can start a simple project and as complexity goes up you can quite easily put React or Vue in the equation since it is all HTML.

React + A-Frame is my favorite game/3D programming experience and thanks to A-Frame we will see many 3D web apps. Last year I prototyped a Facebook/Youtube browser with it and right now I am working on something bigger with those tools and I absolutely do not feel limited by them.

If you are interested by the idea of a 3D web you should definitely try A-Frame !

I was told that DNS was the reason for keeping the SNI unencrypted. I.e., encrypting SNI is tricky and doesn't help if DNS reveals what you are doing anyway.

The DNS community is now trying to move to DNS over TLS. Once that is wide spread, there is hope that a future TLS version will encrypt SNI.

Note that if you do DH before sending the SNI then it requires an active attack to figure out the SNI. However that will make life very difficult for server-side proxies that try to route traffic based on SNI.
Whitelisting entire CDNs like that is incredibly dangerous, see https://github.com/cure53/XSSChallengeWiki/wiki/H5SC-Minicha...
