Comment Re:I was always suspicious of this (Score 1) 63

...............
Each section of the brain has RISC like processing dedicated to certain skills, sensory, knowledge, understanding, and logic. But also shows CISC like adaptability as we also have evidence of an area of the brain remapping to perform other tasks not originally processed there. ...................

The brain must be some sort of FPGA

Comment Toxic aminoacids (Score 1) 243

I suspect part of the aminoacids of the protein in food are chemically changed by the industrial processing to unnatural toxic aminoacids.

Here are examples of toxic aminoacids:

I suspect the body could use the unnatural aminoacids to build proteins. Those proteins could cause proteopathy, like for example alzheimer's.

Comment Magnetic properties (Score 1) 79

If the magnetism goes away quickly, the material wouldn't be suitable for mass storage such as a harddisk of magnetic tape. However, then it could be suitable as a core of a coil, the same as a coil with a ferrite core.

Is this material diamagnetic, paramagnetic of ferromagnetic?

Comment Multicore will be next (Score 5, Insightful) 116

If a hyperthread can spy on the other hyperthread that runs on the same core, it is possible to disable hyperthreading.

However, the next exploit will be that one core can spy on another core. This is possible because all cores use the memory subsystem including the L3 cache that is shared between all cores.

Comment Kernel on it's own core (Score 1) 289

If you have a quadcore processor, would it be possible to run the kernel and nothing else on 1 core, and use the other 3 cores for user programs?

Would the above prevent user programs to access kernel memory that shouldn't be accessible to user programs?
