I question how much of an issue this is. CPUs have got fast - real fast.

Most of the time the CPU isn't the bottle neck in a "gaming rig." You limited on GPU which will still be doing native shader code. You are often limited on memory bandwidth, which translation of executable code probably has negligible impact on. Modern games are finally starting to parallelize more but again that pressures memory bandwidth and cache efficacy, leading to a lot idling anyway.

A few more MIPS is probably about the most affordable thing in consumer gaming machine right now. Apple pretty well showed with their move to arm and support for x86_64 translation that the performance can be pretty darn good. If you're an e-sports person, sure you're going to want either native or more realistically you're going to build yourself a Zen4/5 beast with a GPU that costs more than your car, for people that just want access to more titles to play with 'enjoyable' performance on the hardware they already have or a handheld or whatever, this is probably going to open up a lot more choices for a lot of people.

If the pictures were encrypted so the company couldn't decrpyt them wtf would be the point of sending them in the first place!? Its a service, not a personal file server for poo pictures.

This "security researcher" seems to lack even basic common sense.

Affordability is important. No matter how much fantasy some want to engage in there is a huge segment of the American public and industry alike that is NOT ready to electrify.

Meanwhile we have huge new grid demands from the tech industry, a place where America remains a leader. Asking the transpiration and tech sectors to compete for electric power would be horrible policy.

We also know the writing is on the wall for ICE; in most respects electrification of cars looks like a clear winner. So why force American automakers into a horrible corner of:
1) Spending mountains of cash to try to eek out another couple % efficiencies form legacy engine tech
2) Going bust selling cars to few can afford to buy

Electric cars are not hard - battery tech is; if you can build an ICE car you can slap some pancake motors onto some wheel hubs and build an electric. Its hardly rocket science. By all accounts we already lost the battery tech race too. China, Japan, SE Asia own it. So were back to no real risk of falling behind on anything where we stood a shot at leading in the first place.

In short higher fuel economy standards achieve nothing but hurting the American public, and industry alike. They stand only to increase capital costs beyond what the fuel savings will amount to. Saving $1000 a year on gasoline so you can pay an extra $1500 in bank interest does nothing for a family. What the US economy needs at this time are cheap autos that run on existing infrastructure!

True in general but there are only so many players capable of manufacturing top draw DRAM. Most of those places have other products that are also in demand and fully leveraging those manufacturing resources.

The market will absolutely 'fix' the glitch but this is a sector where it could take years.

Russian astronaut photographs US hardware to show to his bosses. Wow! Might as well have a headline about the toilet habits of bears or the religion of the pope. The only thing that surprises me is that only now has one of them been caught doing it.

Same thing "dude". Fucks sake.

AFAIC ruzzia can and needs to go to hell. I hire people, I won't hire a ruzzian, the world needs to get its act together and start using space without them.

They are a scourge, always were, always will be. The American scientists, that passed information to the USSR about nuclear weapon design and manufacturing were not just traitors, they made a gigantic mistake, they truly made the world a much worse place to live. Preferably the soviets and by extension the Chinese and then the Iraqies, Iranians, North Koreans and who knows who else should not have nukes, at least not immediately after the Americans designed and built them.

Americans are exceptionally good at delivering innovation, but they are also exceptionally naive about the rest of the world. All Americans, their scientists incorrectly believe in basic good human nature, their politicians incorrectly believe that others are just like them and want to do business. Ha! Business is the last thing on the minds of foreign despots. The first thing is to make sure their population are controllable so that nothing can dethrone them, this means the status quo must be maintained, business does not help to maintain status quo, on the contrary, it may provide extra resources to the population. Once the population has more resources than the absolute minimum and once the population does not depend on the State to provide this bare minimum, once the population can provide for itself it starts demanding change and this is unaaceptable. The change is a political demand, population must be dependent and ready to die for a few scraps off the table of the rulers, business interferes with this. Americans think putin or whatever other dictator wants to do business, what a stupid notion.

American people believe they can just keep to themselves, nothing concerns them about the rest of the world, they do not need to try and control the outcomes. They are the naive wealthy mark, walking carelessly through a foreign open market, there are enough eyes on their pockets and there is a guy with a knife in a dark alley waiting for them specifically. This is a metaphore. Americans need to build alliances with the Europeans, not break them, they need to understand that ruzzians are not friends or business partners. They also need to understand that global caliphate is a real thing, it is the goal and if Americans care about their way of life even a little, Israel and Ukraine are their lines of defence right now and must be supported as if the war was already in the USA, bevause it is.

Which analysts?

The difficulty of migrating away from Github is when you've built your entire deploy pipeline and QA process around it, which is what a lot of companies are doing lately.

Look, at least they haven't completely deleted all user data recently, like they did with Sidekick. Congrats on the small victories.

There was a big scandal about smooth submarine motion during the cold war. Toshiba makes the quietest refrigerator I've ever heard (42 db iirc). Can't hear it in the next room.

lol do you have any other questions you'd like to ask to display your ignorance?

I'm curious if you'd be comfortable if the people who manage your investment portfolio or retirement accounts were to act that way. Everyone always complains about the other guy being greedy, but seems to overlook their own behavior or that kind of behavior when it's beneficial to them. No one would be happy if their bank forsook their fiduciary duties and lent money irresponsibly and lost their depositors money because they didn't want be seen as money chasers.

It's your money though. Use it how you will. Just don't complain if it doesn't work out the way you wished it would have. The only sort of charity that ought to exist is personal charity. Even that is not immune to scammers and those who would try to take advantage of others, but it limits the damage that can be done.

Trump is a bully, but he's mainly a coward.

There's a book that talks about it in some detail: https://www.amazon.com/Network...
