They claim to capture 240 tons of CO2, which turns into 60 tons of organic carbon retained by moss growth. And then, where will it go? They cannot let the moss culture grow without limit in their "tree".
Patent protection for x86 ISA show how the patent system is broken. x86 ISA is not innovative nowadays, and the number of transistors required to decode x86 instructions makes x86 ISA a technical liability
The real value of x86 ISA is compatibility, with a lot of programs built for it. That means patent here protect a network effect and not innovation.
64-bit apps still use a native 32-bit word size for everything but pointers, and most of the pointers in a compiled program are still 32-bit because they are "RIP Relative"... Thats taking the 64-bit instruction pointer (RIP), adding a 32-bit value to it (relativity), to get another 64-bit pointer. Thats how all direct branch instructions work, be they absolute or conditional.
But if I printf("%d\n", sizeof(char *)); on a 64 bit OS, the answer is 8. Where are that shortened pointers you are talking about?
According to TFA, interests rates are between 6% and 14%. That seems huge. Why would anybody want to borrow at that rate while banks loans are cheaper?
Sorry, what's wrong with the regulator operating the infrastructure?
Nothing, I am perfectly fine with FAA being both regulator and operator. My point is that if it is to be replaced by a private interest owned corporation, then the regulatory function should be separated so that it does not fall into private interest hands.
In other words, I fear that government is in fact invoking FAA operator function inefficiency to offer its regulatory function to private interests.
Each country is running its own propaganda, with most of its media following the government. In the end, I do not know how I can make an informed opinion on this story.
Hacker News's story notes MacOS is a target, but that information cannot be found in Checkpoint blog.
The infection involves installation of plugins from Chrome. Is that native code? If it is the case, it is unlikely that multiple targets are maintained, as it costs money
I understand your concern, but if I push your logic, employers should not even look at diplomas, and have exams for applicants. Some companies do that.
EU loves infrastructure projects that serves its only true goal: create an optimum currency zone.
This project require capital and labor to be perfectly mobile within the zone, hence the subsided transport and communication projects where free market failed to create the approriate conditions
This may be true, but I find the "racist" adjective disturbing. It suggests it would be unethical to study workers performance by nation in a given field: is it racist to publish bad numbers?

The size of pointer doesn't directly affect the size of executable.
I agree it has little impact on the binary size, but it indeed affects runtime memory footprint.
Of course the culprit fled: who wants to be hit with thousands of dollars damages that insurance will not cover?

I wonder how AI will handle pirates. Perhaps this is the "certain operations" why they retain a minimal crew?

While I would not consider this as a model to follow, France's president Hollande already did that in 2015
France, for example, has been in a state of emergency since 2015
And after initial investigations,it was mostly used to silence protesters, according to Amnisty International.

I understood that when founders anouce improved density nowadays, it is more because of 3D stacking rather than miniaturization.
But the mention of ultraviolet light suggest this time it is indeed about miniaturization. Anyone has more information?
The problem is that FAA is not only an infrastructure operator, it is also a regulator. Hence what we see here is government-pushed Regulatory capture
It seems this is a binary only release. Or did I miss something?
Putin knows that the western democracies are a chief barrier to his imperialistic ambitions.
Well, in my opinion this sentence is tainted by US propaganda. Except of course if you acknowledge that US also has its own imperialistic ambitions.
Title say "Millennials Prefer Watching eSports", and summary says 40% of them prefer watching eSports. Since when 40% became a majority?
Each country is running its own propaganda, with most of its media following the government. In the end, I do not know how I can make an informed opinion on this story.
Well I used the search feature of my browser for the "mac" word and did not find it in the article. Weird.
the ability to take that data and sell it..
Now if I am Intel's product instead of being Intel's customer, I hope they are going to give me their chips for free.

Watson agrees with humans in 73% to 96% of the cases. But who is right when it disagrees, the human doctor or Watson?

Any other employee would probably be fired, or at least admonished, for such spontaneous PR.
This is puzzling. One day we are told 95% of indian engineers cannot code, and the other day India has huge number of highly skilled hackers.
