Cool! Intel is going to make magic processors!

It can function as DRAM, but as you said, why would anyone want that? See https://nvdimm.wiki.kernel.org...

Why not think of it as a fast disk instead of slow RAM?

It clearly changes lanes quite a few times in the video. In the upper right corner it even says what it is doing (Driving, Merging, Changing Lanes, Construction Driving).

Agree there is no footage outside of freeway/highway driving. Would have been especially interesting in the SF and NYC sections. It also zips through the middle of the USA ridiculously fast. I guess that was boring flat corn fields.

Not sure if it is fair to compare it to Tesla's first-gen autopilot or not.

So basically the Inmos Transputer from the 1980s?

I, for one, welcome our new .... oh.

Or cats!

No way! It will be the night after you changed your will. To give everything to Google. Life insurance paid out by a wholly owned subsidiary of Google.

Nice. Real nice. We are talking about Satoshi creating an anonymous email here - BTC wasn't invented yet!

I think a free email service offers the simplest and best privacy. Running a domain requires payment and hosting, which are hard to do 100% anonymously.

It's not the same. You still go faster when doing strafe jumps. The bunny-hop just allows players to move a little faster. You know... make em feel like they can play with the big boys.

Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) is also a common name for it. That and tons of linux distributions and people refer to it as "arch" or "architecture". GNU coreutils even has a program named arch that prints out the "machine hardware name" (ew...).

The fact is lots of people call it architecture and it can reasonably be called architecture in the given context. I'll allow it!

Not denying it's important to know the difference, though!

Interesting discussion save the bickering :-)

Bitcoin is a protocol, not a product or technology. I would compare bitcoin to HTTP or bittorrent. Look at the success of the web, which is based on a protocol that has seen minor (and mostly backwards compatible) changes over the years. Nobody could have predicted exactly what the web browser experience is in 2013. Once a protocol gains enough user and developer momentum it is hard to throw it away. In my opinion, bitcoin has a good shot.

The fact is that bitcoin is a protocol with lots of flexibility baked in which will allow it to grow and expand as needed. Fundamentally unlike an iPhone or AOL or Myspace or specific company X.

dm-cache is in mainline since 3.9. Now please test it and let me know if I should bother trying it!
