uh... more "CPU" (sockets) makes no sense. The world can pretty much run virtualized CPUs. We don't care about the 2 socket limitation of desktop Windows, we just define more cores. It's simply not an issue anymore in 99% of all cases.
And it's still pretty hard to to outfit a single host (virtualized or not) with 2TB of memory, much less 6TB and much less a 4 CPU+ host with 6TB that is a "desktop".
We will no longer support software in our store due to customer complaints.
This includes the recently popular book apps "How to flush away your money problems" (translated) and "How to upload python libraries when somebody already used that name". However, "How to screw the customer with Digital Rights Management" will still be available (free for all members of W3C).
But it's similar to saying it's not Trump's fault that "the South" erected monuments to their relatives that fought in the Civil War, and it's proven that simply is not true.
Most of the complaints are that you have to give Watson the answer first and then it gives you the question.
Doctors were hoping for something the other way around.
Just because its popular with 'toy database' applications (where the db is really just slightly glorified read only storage) doesnt mean it is a threat or oracle - different horses for very different courses.
You need to understand that the "toy" database is deployed much more than Oracle today (including small companies like Facebook, Pinterest, Github). Not bad for a "toy". Doesn't matter if it is a "toy" or not, it's being used by major systems that would have been running Oracle. The good news is that Oracle's expensive attempt to kill MySQL forced the creation of MariaDB (used by Google and many others) and other alternatives, and we all know that Oracle's ploy against HP produced a huge interest in PostgreSQL. Everybody is winning, well except for Oracle.
Don't ever pull a sword on your customer base. It's just a bad business strategy.
Actually there is still more work and research being done. And the problem can be triggered under many scenarios involving various loads. There are "attempts" and some "workarounds" that mitigate the problem, but it's still there.
But AMD's newest have an issue. 0-60 in so many seconds sounds good...however 0-60... segfault doesn't. Until AMD fixes some of the shortcoming on these new chips, there's some risk. Fast is nice, but fast and reliable is better.
I like that AMD is making a attempt at getting back in the game, but I can't afford a system to be down when under heavy load. And arguably it's the point of going with a higher end chip to begin with.
Vendors are urged to examine the data directly. Repeating numbers like 111111111... or numbers like 55378008.... or even 1234567... these need to be examined closely. Right now vendors aren't even looking at cryptocurrency, so it's easy to pass off fakes.
Who writes temperatures as "129 degrees"? This is a science and tech site, at very least, if you're going to use outmoded, outdated, antiquated, anachronistic, non-standard, and mostly unused units of measurement, indicate the unit.
I petitioned these folks for years on the very same matter. No luck.
Can you buy it? AMD arguably made "ok" CPUs (talking within past 2-3 years), and even some mildly interesting ones. But could you buy them anywhere? Oh, you might find something on eBay from the Russian Federation or something like that, but it would just be a part, then you have to find a mainboard, etc..
Several major distributors have stepped up on the stage with AMD.... the question is: Will they deliver? Or will this be a case of "one or two" non-configurable options up against a plethora of offerings from Intel.
AMD needs to learn. It's hard work. And you can't rest. Last time AMD put a dent into Intel (taking about 17% of the server market in a quarter), AMD chose to celebrate and relax for the next XXX years. And Intel, excuse the pun, came in and cleaned their clock, tick tock.
Looks awesome, but if I can't buy it, worthless. And AMD, be prepared, Intel doesn't sleep (for long) and I don't think they'll even give you 5% of the market this time.
Hope they succeed, but AMD hasn't proven that they can sustain...

At first I thought it was extracting the carbon and making it into coal, which of course could be used for fuel.
The best way to be protected is to ignore the problems... so says the Symantec CEO https://yro.slashdot.org/story...

Just saying.
Unless it's a phone, then just strap the bad boy to my face!
We've already banned humans (evil carbon producers), just ban soil.
Kevin Costner says if we wait long enough, the soil problem will take care of itself.
Maybe via Oracle all of this will be put on Solaris. That way it will be off most of the time anyway (?).

Thank you for purchasing Office 235.
We are sorry to report that we are experiencing some problems....etc.

My success is 80% sweat, 1% connection and 19% luck.
Note: helps if your business makes anti-antiperspirants and/or deodorants.
I believe it is also correct to say:
A bad browser i.e. internet explorer
Perhaps another example would be better:
Another example e.g. A bad president i.e. Donald Trump
Or a clear example e.g. A good farmer e.i.e.i.o. Old MacDonald

MySQL? A Threat a real database? Umm. No.
PostgreSQL perhaps, but not MySQL.

It's worth mentioning the CPU bug doesn't seem to be present in Epyc or TR, just the original Ryzens.

100 days... if this means working days, that could be decades in real time in Venezuela. Not sure about Australia.

Humans? At 53.7C? Not good for very long.
This is why we only hire sub-humans to work the hot aisle of our datacenter.

Java is a dominant language. Python needs to suck more to make it even into the top 10.
Maybe Php?
Just pray that our President doesn't start reading /. believing it to contain "real news". Twitter may fallover.
