Random trivia: "dian nao" () is the chinese word for computer, it literally translates as "electric brain". A very appropiate name for an AI chip, I think.
Shor's algorithm is only applicable to asymmetric encryption algorithms like RSA and ECC. It would absolutely destroy them, rendering them useless.
However, for symmetric ciphers like AES you are limited to Grover's algorithm ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... ), that merely reduces the key length in half, so just moving from AES-128 to AES-256 would make us safe again.
C++'s massive overhead? One of the guiding principles of C++ are zero-cost abstraction. Also, it's one of the fastest languages out there. If you couldn't meet your performance requirements with C++, you were doing something really wrong.
We already have American CPUs doing exactly what you describe. As an European myself, I don't know the difference between being spied on by the Americans or the Chinese.
When will we have a 64-bit client? Steam is right now the only 32-bit program I have running on my Linux system. It's annoying having to install a bing bunch of libraries for just one program.
You are a horrible boss. Work performance should be evaluated on what people do on work time, what they do on their free time it's their own fucking bussiness, not yours.
Is Carmack still developing 3D engines? I think the last one he worked for was idTech 5. Don't get me wrong, he is a legend and a well deserved one, but nowadays there are many 3D programmers as good as him who don't have any problem using Vulkan.
I have lived all my life in Spain, so obviously Spanish is my mother language, and I'm seriously tired of all the idiots who try to promote this supposedly "gender neutral" language, ending words in -@, -x or -os/as. The first two are unpronunceable, the last one is way too cumbersome. I wish they would stop butchering our language.
It's not legal, and the Spanish government is already investigating it: https://www.eldiario.es/tecnol... (link in Spanish)
Whoever created this app is in deep trouble now.
Digital sensors surpassed film's dynamic range many years ago. 35 mm film peaked at around 13 stops, while current digital cameras peak at almost 15 stops. Even my old D7000 surpasses film: https://www.dxomark.com/Camera...
Plenty of Americans today have their penises circumcised for no real reason, not to speak about Jews and Muslims who do it for religious reasons. Should we take you all away from your families?
Maybe. Some physicists have proposed the existence of "electroweak stars", where energy would be generated from a process know as "electroweak burning" where quarks are converted to leptons: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
The best sale rep I ever met was a former engineer. Which was good, because it meant he actually knew what he was talking about. He even knew more about technology than the CTO, but that was because the CTO was incredibly crappy.
For the ungrateful nations of Europe? We didn't ask for this war who is killing thousand of innocents and sending us a crapton of refugees. Nobody in Europe want this fucking war, so fuck off.
Heck, there were a couple of bad instructions in the 68k that made a "modern" OS impossible (i.e., you can call them from user mode) - that's why it was revised into the 68010 to allow proper user-supervisor mode separation.

A New Mexico astronomycal observatory? Did they found a mysterious looking hammer, impossible to lift?
AFAIK, those neural nets processors are limited to 8-bit integer, and are limited to very specific operations.

Call me crazy, but if I could redesign the DNS, neither subdomains nor TLDs would exist. Just a flat name hierarchy.
So this would explain why my cat sleeps 16 hours a day...

There is a PS3 emulator that is getting very good results: https://rpcs3.net/
Ni no Kuni is currently listed as "ingame", but not fully playable. Give it time and it will be.

Tor isn't decentralized, onion sites work just like normal websites, just with more layers of encryption and anonymity.
Freenet is decentralized.

Nope. Read the release note, they don't care about Vulkan, they want everybody to use their own Metal API.
The biggest war effort by far was done by the Soviet Union, but 70 years of Hollywood have done a nice job promoting the USA as the saviors.
