Feel free to correct me on how its related to the use of "regularly" tho.

Do you have an example to demonstrate regularity that's not nearly 60 years old?

I do take issue calling an anual arbitrary. It's a very common denominator used in finances. ie, you pay taxes anually. Don't attempt to tell the government it's arbitrary. To be pedantic, everything is arbitrary, even the value, the amount of, etc of USD, invadating this entire discussion.

As a society we agree upon things. A year is not an arbitrary unit of time.

That's just over 10% of the GDP. Not a small amount by any measure but our numbers are rather different. What am I missing?

And please don't ad hominem attack people you're responding to.

In 1995 the idea of commercial products being adversarial is low. For the very few cases of the driver they install being unwanted, there's countlessly more cases of it being wanted.

This wasn't "secure by design," it was "usable by design." And for 99.9% of the people, it was likely both.

I don't know why you would make that assumption. See https://www.wsj.com/articles/how-uber-makes-its-drivers-pay-...

> Most Uber drivers seem unaware of how their job costs them when it comes to the value of their cars.

Someone needs money for groceries. A bank will lend them money for a car but not groceries. They use Uber as an inefficient means to turn said loan into cash for groceries.

There's no reason to assume that Uber drivers have priced out devaluation and/or have the long term in mind.

It's also rare to need what Enterprise has that Professional does not.

According to that source, one expired in 2014 and the other in 2018. I have no information beyond what's in that article.

This pcgamer article is... weird.

> If some hooligan signs off malware with a genuine code from Nvidia, your PC may not be able to catch the malware before it unpacks, and wreaks havoc on your system.

I don't know what that means. Unpacks? Catches? It feels like random words assembled in a way that doesn't mean much.

I do believe it's a contrived story as an attempt at "viral" marketing.

After 20 paragraphs and the 3 ads that made it past ublock, the article comes to it's titular point that Google bought a company in 2010 which had designed a UI based on a physical desk.

The video of the UI is incredibly uncompelling and reminds me of Microsoft Bob.

For example that vaccines are subversive for an entirely different purposes. Microchips, financial greed, mass genocide, virus distribution, etc.

  Leftists hellbent on forcibly masking...

  As usual, the hard data supports sanity and normalcy not just in America's schools, but for everyone else as well.

His statement "I state that cloth masks do not stop the virus from spreading" is too absolute. I only read the Vietnamese study's summary, but it concluded medical masks were more effective, not that "cloth masks do not stop the virus from spreading."

All this said, n95s are widely available now and should be worn.

Thank you for the link and context.

Do you know if it models the target arch, too? Like, can it account for different architectures having different instruction reordering rules?

It feels more domain to the browser. Have some sort of required flag.

Lets say it's 4 8bit ints. It can be sequentially and directly in memory like:

  stack: [0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x03]

  stack: [0x07002412, 0x0700241A, 0x07002424, 0x070036A0]

  heap (or stack, really):
  0x07002412: 0x01
  0x0700241A: 0x02
  0x07002424: 0x03
  0x070036A0: 0x04

That is what "void*" is doing. You're using a pointer instead of a value.

In C# this is what generics allow you to avoid.

  // This is like my first memory layout above.
  struct Foo<T> { public T MyField; }

  // This is like the second layout above.
  struct Foo { public object MyField; }

That's what I am talking about. I don't know much about modern C optimizations.
