You can find some computation to optimize just like you can find memory to compact, so getting caught was largely not believing performance was going to be part of the test..
But if you aren't in it for ulterior motives, you have predictive branching, etc, so your performance loss may be in the imagination of a CPU designer with a wrong idea of typical that strangely coincides with a uniquely written benchmark..
I would view it similar to letting people pick through your ewaste trash. It might have value but the company has written it off.
Charging taxes on a consumer resale is hard and unpopular as it is double taxation, the only example I can think of is weird places with house sale stamp taxes and such.
Personally, I see it as a larger problem for the US that the Democrats are no longer anywhere near left enough or dialog oriented enough to maintain the facade of a superpower with European values and special relationships, and I don't think a fake moment of reflection will change that.
Europe would be moving toward seeing itself as bullied by 3 superpowers with less distinction either way but at an accelerated pace if it doesn't even see the Democrats as a relatable government in exile when the US is particularly unhinged.
The distribution game is kind of stacked for the most likely to burn out to be the most likely to be important in the stack and in desperate need of help.
Systemd itself seems security-critical to me. Would removing other dependencies on libsystemd really make a secure system where systemd was compromised through its library?
No, SQL is a standard that warrants many DB implementations, redia is an implementation that doesn't necessarily deserve standards.
I.e. if there is too much fragments in redis alternatives, whatever skills or contributions you made you can't use in any organization because they will avoid all redis like solutions.
He probably is a higher risk of racking up 25 more years every 18 months than a shank specialist.
I don't really think that has the moral conclusion people try to imply though. Thinking they could get away with it as a permanent secret gap that no one need ever know about is actually a worse moral character.
