I remember a few years ago someone didn’t realize a tweet of your was satire

Office Space meme: EVERY SINGLE DAY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY HAS BEEN WORSE THAN THE DAY BEFORE IT. SO THAT MEANS THAT EVERY SINGLE DAY THAT YOU SEE THEM, THAT'S THEIR WORST DAY OF THEIR EXISTENCE.

I started paying attention to politics in 2001, and one absolute truth I’ve observed is that every single day the Republican Party is worse than the day before it.

UPDATE: @dropsitenews.com has obtained the very graphic video from the lady in the pink coat, which shows ICE executing yet another person in broad daylight:

This is how I found out the guy whose studio came out with Titanfall and Jedi Survivor died 😢

I lived in ATX for 11 years, I am ready to be cancelled for this joke.

Ever wonder why compilers use `xor eax, eax` to zero registers? It's smaller AND faster—CPUs optimise it out entirely!

There has been one other person with so much power that they were able to shoot a layer in the face, hospitalizing said lawyer, causing that lawyer to have a heart attack, and then the lawyer apologizing to the guy that shot him in the face.

Amazon and iRobot agree to terminate pending acquisition Amazon's proposed acquisition of iRobot has no path to regulatory approval in the European Union, preventing Amazon and iRobot from moving forward together-a loss for consumers, competition, and innovation. SEATTLE and BEDFORD, Mass., Jan. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Today Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) and iRobot (NASDAQ: IRBT) announced that they have entered into a mutual agreement to terminate their previously announced acquisition agreement, originally signed on August 4, 2022, under which Amazon would have acquired iRobot for cash consideration. This deal would have allowed Amazon to invest in continued innovation by iRobot and support iRobot in lowering prices on products customers already love. The companies released the following statements today about the decision:

I watch horror movies primarily because it’s my marriage tax but I genuinely enjoyed Weapons.

It’s 4:15 am here and after four attempts over the span of a month I finally completed my language test. It is now time for dog snuggles.

1) yes, agreed. I do also recall around this time Google was growing like crazy, and they used commodity x86 parts to build their search cluster, which it seems like contributed to this shift

2) what (i had never heard this)

When AMD64 was proposed, Athlon was already in the market and was scaling beyond what Intel believed was possible less than 10 years prior. But by then, Intel had already committed to IA64 with HP

Folks may not realize that when Intel announced IA64, their flagship part was the OG Pentium - superscalar but in-order. While some in the company didn’t believe CISC could continue improving, Pentium Pro was still in active development and showed that superscalar and out-of-order was possible.

Quote from Linus Torvalds: "[Intel] threw out all the good parts of the x86 because people thought those parts were ugly. They aren't ugly, they're the 'charming oddity' that makes it do well."

A lot of people rightfully complain that x86 is complex and ugly, but this quote from Linus Torvalds on x86-64 vs IA64 was also revealing

“When the IA64 project was started it was perceived that the performance of RISC machines would outstrip that of [Complex Instruction Set Computing (CISC)] machines. ... They felt that they could get higher performance with a [Very Large Instruction Word (VLIW)] architecture than they could with a CISC architecture.” - Dave Cutler, "A History of Modern 64-bit Computing"

One fact I had memory holed goes back to the classic CISC vs RISC debate. My recollection for IA64’s justification was that Intel believed CPUs were getting too complicated and that they wanted a new ISA. In reality it was because they believed CISC could not scale or be competitive with RISC!

@parkbot.bsky.social on X: "I was looking up some history behind the x86-64 transition, particularly around the Pentium 4 time frame, and I found out that Bob Colwell (Pentium Pro chief architect) has been posting on Quora.

I wrote my first and maybe only Substack post. This is a follow up to my Colwell post because I found a 2007 technical report by two MS employees who interviewed folks from MS, AMD, and Intel about the history of the transition, and I learned a lot!
