Is it really a good use of our tax money to have (usually equally incompetent) government bureaucrats chasing rich "eccentrics" around and policing how they hurt themselves? Department heads, and chiefs, and comptrollers and TPS r

No, power on already requires membership of group _startup so no security problems there AFAIKS.

By bespoke you mean using standard interfaces to create shared memory pools? They do roll some of their own locking primitives, but that's not particularly unusual in a large portable program (and quite likely what they wanted is/

It would be good. It would not be harmful. Almost none of the crime I say I want to stop is driven by people driven to desperation to survive, so the prospect of consequences would make it a net positive for reducing them.

Makes sense. Reddit moderators are even more deluded about where the site's value is than they portray its owners to be. It is certainly not in the moderation work, which many do to satisfy their need for power over others, and for eac

RISC vs CISC was intimately about implementation. John Cocke's project came about because the complexity of mainframe and other CISC ISAs made implementation difficult, as did the other RISC efforts that soon followed it. One part of i

It's not increasing policing, just increasing prosections and penalties. But yes it would also be good to also strip money and welfare from offenders and force them to pay restitution to their victims, thereby reducing the hurt from th

You really think cheap housing is a big factor? You're looking to attract investors, entrepreneurs, and highly skilled engineers. You might stand to be a little cheaper than the bay area, but Detroit cheap isn't necessary surely.

A city is a large scale government program by definition. Of course a "new silicon valley" needs conducive government infrastructure, laws, support, that is necessary. But not sufficient. You can't just government programme y

Every city thinks they could be the "next silicon valley" because how hard can it be? Just need some office buildings and internet cables.

`lock ; xadd` isn't really fundamentally different than `ll ; add ; sc; b again` The latter is a bit clunky but the core more or less implements them in the same way. Acquire a line exclusive, load value, increment it, write it back. A

It seems to be a state that can send stale data to loads, but will get invalidated if the CPU performs a barrier. It doesn't work of course, obviously because there is no forward progress. CPU1 can order all previous stores, then later

Your example was hard to follow. What do you mean exactly. Write it in terms of memory operations performed and values observed by each CPU and address, with assertions that are or are not violated according to your example.

Oh yes that must be right, I wasn't thinking (or thinking about consistency ordering). Good catch.
