Can we get rid of the password expiration too? Requiring that users change their perfectly secure password every 6 months is absurd and gives the impression of security when in reality it only makes things worse.
A very detailed article. Love the history of all the kernels too. My only minor gripe is that since it's about a serious security issue, I would like a very brief explanation in the beginning, like what is the impact, the requirements for the attack, is it a logic error or memory corruption etc. Very brief, only long enough to know if I want to read the rest of the article or not :)
Surely Facebook and all the other companies will get sued for using copyrighted material for their products. Right? Right? Let's just hope it won't be so bad for these poor companies. Thankfully companies themselves can't contemplate suicide.
I know this is a snarky comment but the double standards are killing me.
Also this has been said a thousand times but I have to repeat it here. Abolish the paywalls for scientific research. Elsevier and the rest of the gang that produce nothing of value, gatekeepers of knowledge that did not produce. Seriously, what is their running cost nowadays? An FTP server with the PDFs? Semi-honest question.

So no connection at all with actual Moore's Law which states that number of transistors double each year. If you optimize your libraries to be 4x faster, no, that doesn't mean your 'AI chips' are improving faster than Moore's Law.
Statements like these annoy me enough to actually comment. Are they gaslighting us or do they actually believe this stuff ? Makes me really wonder.
