Ken Shirriff has an excellent series of blog posts on early Intel chips (running from 4004 to 8086 I think). Don't believe he's done one on the 8080 but the post on the 8008 is great [1] and I'd expect that the 8080 (which followed it and was designed by the same team) is very similar.

In short no microcode but there is a PLA (Programmable Logic Array) which helps to decode the instructions.

Reddit recently dramatically revised their moderation policy and has generally been banning a lot of subs. Reddit very much wants to be a profitable business, and has no problem elimiting non-profitable subreddits.

"When your content is too cancerous for church, maybe the issue isn't the church".

Feel free to replace church with whatever is appropriate to your situation, but there have always been censors and there will always be people who resist the censors. The censors have acted against homosexuals, trans folk, hippies, anti-war demonstrators and many others who we no longer see fit to censor today and I will continue to be in the camp of people who work to thwart the censors.
It's funny because for me, it's always on, and it's terrible because it shows "are you trying to talk" every time my kid screams (very often).

So users should purchase new equipment to suit designers? Or maybe - crazy idea, I know - designers should design for the equipment people actually have and not whine or look down their noses because not everyone makes designer salaries.
Right wing propagandists flooded twitter and reddit with deceptive edits, frame grabs, and narratives. I expect there are now multiple retaliatory take down campaigns by multiple groups and bot networks to try to preserve only videos that support their preferred narrative.
It might also depend on how AMD clears this temporal register across contexts, and the method it's updated.

The first I could think of (in the 5 minutes I've read this) is that it could be potentially ASLR breaking. As Agner says, it's highly useful for stack operations, but that also can help an adversary derive where the stack is.

Second, I could see an attack where the CPU predicts a sequence will use this register (since the address in the register could be speculative) and prefetch (since it kind of looks like it's prefetching) but it ends up being wrong and not killing/clearing the register, or not preventing its usage speculatively.

But it all depends heavily on lots of things. I feel like it's pretty similar to spec v4 in that exploitation would depend on the memory disambiguator, but we'll see.
> The fraudsters discussed in the article

Your comment almost directly contradicts the article. This isn't about just stealing credit cards:

> “Many of them told us the same thing: Buying identities was so much better for them than stolen payment card data, because card data could be used once or twice before it was no good to them anymore. But identities could be used over and over again for years.”

And your part about "The banks could easily just say "unless you can prove this was our fault (and it rarely is)":

> “But during my case, the federal court received like 13,000 letters from victims who complained they lost their houses, jobs, or could no longer afford to buy a home or maintain their financial life because of me. That made me feel really bad, and I realized I’d been a terrible person.”

That doesn't sound like the banks were very forgiving for those 13,000 people, and it is 100% not their fault that Experian published on the public internet enough personal data about them to open new credit cards.
Ask HN: Open-source auth0/octa alternative?
Hi HN community! Are you familiar with any OSS projects that aim to have somewhat parity with using an identity service like auth0 or octa? The idea is for this to have all the nice things about having a 3rd party service for identity, but being able to run in one's infra. Something e.g. what https://github.com/mikecao/umami does for analytics.

What I'd like this to have: (a) .sql files to setup the DB, (b) Dockerfile for easy deployment, (c) admin panel for stuff like tracking/revoking sessions, etc, (d) built on something battle-tested (e.g. devise).
My anecdotal experience: I’ve never noticed this with my 2014 MBP until I was at my parents’ recently, plugged into an extension cord from their garage.

With my feet on the ground, the metal body of my MacBook was “tingly” all over. Feet off the ground, no more tingling.

I’d love to better understand what was going on (and whether it’s potentially dangerous).

FWIW, I was using the Mac power cord with the ground pin. Does this just mean that the wiring in their garage isn’t properly grounded?
> I'm just worried there is too much safety everywhere and no one takes risks any more.

If this is really true, then I personally think it's wonderful that no one is taking a risk with my safety when I'm flying on an airplane.
I have no idea why Lenovo doesn't offer the Carbon X1 in a larger and slightly heavier configuration for people that like larger screens and use them for full-time work. Clearly the 15" and 16" MBPs show that the market exists.

A 16" or 17" (remember 17" laptops?) Carbon X1 would get me to move away from the Macbook Pro in a heartbeat.
Oh right, I don't think I understood what you were saying, then. That's also a good question.

If you are being pragmatic about things, a game engine is probably the best. For 3D, give Godot a try. Otherwise there are plenty of other commercial solutions (Unity, Unreal, there are quite a few). 2D engines are more common than 3D engines, so simply select one that is most compatible with your preferred tech stack. Game engines will require more upfront work for the GUI part of CAD software, but it will make the actual CAD a lot easier as a large amount of constraints and collision physics already come built in. Modern game engines also come with importers for common CAD file formats, so that will make your life a lot easier too. The modern Unity-style game engine with everything and the kitchen sink included is somewhat of a recent phenomenon. Traditionally game engines are small poorly documented libraries and therefore less than helpful unless you were truly desperate. Also, the CAD field moves slowly when it comes to adoption of new technology and most of the incumbents are still using core in-house technology from decades ago. My above assessment is based on the current state of the art for both fields.

Similar: I recently built a fleet of telepresence robots that use smartphones to drive them:
https://github.com/dheera/robot-tethys

The nice thing about smartphones for robots is that they have almost everything you'd want for a robot: GPS, IMU, 2 cameras, battery, battery charging circuitry, a high-res display, touch interface. And ALL of that for $60 -- for say a used Pixel 1. You simply cannot get that amount of hardware for $60 for a RPi-based robot.

I actually wrote all the logic in an HTML5 app running on the phone, which communicates with the motors via bluetooth using the experimental HTML5 bluetooth API. I also wrote a "roslite.js" which allows for a ROS-node-like-but-async abstraction from within a single monolithic JavaScript:
https://github.com/dheera/roslite.js
This wouldn't work for more advanced robots of course, but for simple telepresence and educational robots it can work while being much easier to code than an Android app.

> everyone agrees that hate speech is bad

but does everyone agree on what hate speech is? That's the danger. You can just claim any opinion you don't like is hate speech. You can say endorsing a particular candidate is hate speech and those people can justifiably be censored; their views invalid (and in some places; justifiably killed).

It was once considered offensive, in many places a crime, to say homosexuality is morally okay or that the Bible should be translated into German and English or to say God doesn't exist.

There is no distinction between "Free speech" and "hate speech," because it requires you to qualify the former. There are exceptions in many countries, but they are for very specific things: child abuse and advocating specific violence against individuals.
I go past a mall with a dildo shop inside it on my current walking commute to work.

I saw another one of the same chain in the main train station of… I think it was Hannover? I was travelling a lot by InterRail and the places are blurring together.

Zürich has (or had) a sex shop with the wares clearly visible from the outside in the expensive bit of the city centre.

Cambridge (UK) has an Ann Summers in its main shopping centre. Thinking of the UK, I’ve seen vibrating cock rings openly stocked in Tesco, which is the largest supermarket chain in the UK.

Attitudes to such topics are surprisingly flexible.

> In 1614, John Napier introduced logarithms.

Actually, Napier's 1614 Mirifici Logarithmorum Canonis Descriptio contains tables of −10⁷ ln(sin x/10⁷) [0]. Non-trigonometric log tables appeared later.

The worst part is the default font, Computer Modern, which is absolutely deplorable. I'm not a big fan of the general style of "modern" fonts (a name coined at the end of the 19th centry when they still were actually modern). But, worse than that, Computer Modern is horrifically slim and spindly. I've read repeated rumours over the years that it was deliberately this way because the printers of the time used ink that would run a bit so the font was like that to compensate, but I don't know if it's true.

That's not such a big deal since you can obviously change the font. For a long time there were lots of text fonts but very few math fonts, and those math fonts that did exist would either have some symbols from Computer Modern or wouldn't have a suitably similar text font. But now there are a fair number of choices. Personally I like mathpazo (with Palatino for text) but I've found people used to Computer Modern can find this a bit much of a radical departure. (Edit: I've found a more conservative choice is Times for text and Utopia (MathDesign) for math.)

TeX does have a few small typesetting niggles. For example, if you set f(x)g(y) with normal small brackets around the x but large brackets around the y (because it's really a displayed fraction) then you'll find g is miles away from its argument but right next to f's argument. (I'll avoid opening the can of worms about what the root cause is here, but it's very clearly wrong in this case.) This is actually not that big a deal either - there are lots of problems like this but they're all fairly minor and small in number compared to the huge number of things typeset correctly. The only problem comes when people refuse to correct things because they assume that if TeX typesets it that way then that must be correct by definition.

Extremely bad thermals. My i9 mbp spends more time throttled then working full power, even though I'm using cooling pad.
I think you and author have different connotations of white supremacy. It seems to me as though you are thinking Skinheads, KKK, etc.

In typical equity/inclusivity language, the breadth of White Supremacy goes a lot farther. It's similar in concept to Structural Racism -- It's not that the MRAsian emailer literally supports Nazis, it's that they're parroting political and societal points that were created as a result of the White Supremacy being the default state in the USA.

White Supremacy (i.e, Whites, and in particular, (rich) White Males being the defacto "person" that US policy and culture was/is created for) is essentially the state of the world after centuries of actions and policy based on the idea that the White Man is most deserving the fruits of the world, and that their place must be defended from colored people and women. White Supremacy will remain a fact until the long and hard work of including and raising all other people up to the same level of consideration and opportunity is complete, and society stops transmitting toxic memes which are rooted in it.

At least, this is how I understand it. (as a member of the most privileged class; happy to be educated by someone more knowledgeable than I)

We live in a time of extreme devaluation of terms. The Democratic Republic of Congo is a hardcore dictatorship. The People's Republic of China is run by a close circle of elites. Likewise, "Hate Speech" is used far too often to shut down fairly reasonable criticism against the "equal outcome, not equal opportunity" policies bundled together with original sin and Orwellian struggle sessions.
I think this specific case is a bit different, as Google sold the house (i.e. phone) to me, yet they want to retain control as if they were the owner.
I think the problem is, that two things are getting mixed up.

First, there are content providers like Facebook or Youtube. Those platforms store the content of their users and if the content can be publicized the content providers have to apply their rules.

Second, there are software providers like the Play Store in its original function, Apples App Store or Amazons App Store. Those platforms should not care about content but just about software. If the software is malicious, ban it. But they should not ban software because if the content you can reach with it. That is the job if the distributing content providers.

That said, I am not a particular friend of censoring content at all. I just accept, that some content providers have their own rules about which content they accept and which content they don't want to support.
Yeah I'm not ruling out the "placebo" either!

> government organizations should be run like businesses, but the ways in which people are measured and rewarded should not be profitability, but impact.

"Impact" can't be tied too strongly to number of people affected because one of the things governments do is take on jobs which must be done but which are unprofitable because too few people need them done to make it into a market. This should be obvious, but it's also obvious that "number of people" is a really easy thing to measure, so, like the drunk looking for her car keys under the streetlight because the light is better, all organizations tend to build metrics on top of the data that's easiest to get at.
I'm surprised they take it down. Why would they do that? Is the fediverse a threat to Google? It's a super niche thing for the a small minority of people who are not Google target users anyway.
I've done this — I have a filter to move any email I receive without a dot into a "Not For Me" folder, which I periodically go through and usually send a canned response back about how they probably have the wrong person.

You can also automate this part, perhaps to reply with "You probably have the wrong person, but if it is actually for me I'll get back to you shortly".

I don't think it's a question of the medium but a question of the actor doing the censoring. If the feds mandate the censoring on a private medium, I don't think it makes it legal. I think one difference is the enforcement, Google can't censor an individual universally, just on their platform, whereas the government can enforce it universally with force/jail/etc.
Fatality is a binary measure for which early numbers are easy to get. You catch the illness and you either survive or don't, with some fatalities at a delay. (Diamond Princess did have some people that took months to perish afterwards) Other effects require long periods of observation, and more granular measures of degree of impact. That research is ongoing now, and you seem to be deliberately wanting to misunderstand the nature of the problem.

This is actually Google's fault. Because Google is large enough Netflix could be nice and have special handling for Gmail addresses but this would be going against the email RFC that says $inbox1+$subaddr@domain == $inbox2+$subaddr@domain iff $inbox1 and $inbox2 are identical.

Netflix has zero idea how any particular email operator mangles or maps inboxes to actual users. Apple's private email service maps all sorts of inboxes to the same actual person. Mailinator maps every address to everyone.
Boeing has had a lot of issues with the South Carolina plant, but I don’t think the 787-9 is built there.

In a more complex example where you actually take a variable, do some operations to it, then reassign it, Pluto.jl encourages you to separate that into multiple cells. The reason is each cell marks a distinct node in the dependency graph. If you prefer to use cells, then the notebook can be smarter about what lines actually need to get re-run and what don't.

A downside to using multiple cells is vertical spacing/visual noise. This is something that the package authors are currently thinking about addressing.

I did this ages ago for a website for my engineering class (now long gone). The focus of the website was a punbb instance, but it also had a front page with a weather widget, an announcements blog, etc. The announcements were just a date-ordered list of first-posts from threads on one of the forums. It was a simple enough thing, and it was easy to click through to the actual forum thread for the "comments" on any given story.

The study this references turned out to be based on bogus data and bad statistics. The original authors since amended their data and don't back down from their conclusions, but they seem a bit unjustified (IMO, and the opinion of their critics).

Here's the tweetstorm (sorry) from the professor that initially called this out [1], the acknowledgement of the errors [2], and the tweetstorm (again, sorry) from that professor again pointing out that the corrected data shows "Covid survivors DO have thingies in their T1. But it is JUST AS COMMON in people with similar risk factors who have NOT had Covid. In other words, yes there are those funny thingies in the scan, but it is NOTHING TO DO WITH HAVING HAD COVID. It is because of the background risk factors" [3].
