The meeting held a few days ago between Intel's management and investors was notable not only for announcing a restructuring strategy but also for unveiling plans to implement 10 nm and 7 nm technologies. At the same time, some key speakers made very interesting and even ambiguous statements on related topics. Among the standout speakers was […]
It was only a matter of time before someone had sex in a car controlled by autopilot. Last week, Taylor Jackson, an adult film actress from Los Angeles, and her boyfriend may have been the first to embody this idea. They uploaded their video to Pornhub, where anyone could see how the couple performed various sexual acts in a moving […]
Recently, the specifications of AMD Ryzen 3000 series Matisse 7 nm processors have been actively discussed, which will soon offer Zen 2 architecture. Existing engineering samples, according to unofficial sources, are said to provide up to 16 cores and frequencies exceeding 4.0 GHz, with mention of a twelve-core processor with a higher frequency limit. When the Matisse processor sample was first demonstrated by Lisa Su […]
The release of DXVK 1.2 has been published, providing an implementation of DXGI (DirectX Graphics Infrastructure), Direct3D 10, and Direct3D 11, which operates through call translation to the Vulkan API. To use DXVK, drivers supporting the Vulkan API are required, such as AMD RADV 18.3, AMDGPU PRO 18.50, NVIDIA 415.22, Intel ANV 19.0, and AMDVLK. DXVK can be used to run 3D applications and […]
OpenBSD has added a sysupgrade utility designed for automatically upgrading the system to a new release or snapshot of the CURRENT branch. Sysupgrade downloads the necessary files for the update, verifies them using signify, copies bsd.rd (a special RAM disk that operates entirely in memory, used for installation, updating, and recovery of the system) to bsd.upgrade, and initiates a system reboot. The bootloader, upon detecting bsd.upgrade, begins […]
The Wall Street Journal reported on a secret weapon developed in the U.S. aimed at eliminating terrorists without harming nearby civilians. According to WSJ sources, the new weapon has already proven its effectiveness in a number of operations in at least five countries. The R9X missile, also known as the 'ninja bomb' and 'flying Ginsu' (Ginsu is a brand of knives), is […]
I want to share with you some of the non-fiction books I've read over the past few years. However, while compiling the list, an unexpected selection problem arose. The books, so to speak, are for a wide audience. They can be read quickly even by completely unprepared readers and can compete with fiction in terms of engaging storytelling. Books for more thoughtful reading, for which a bit of […] is needed for understanding.
A vulnerability (CVE-2019-11815) has been identified in the TCP-based RDS protocol handler (Reliable Datagram Socket, net/rds/tcp.c) that could lead to access to already freed memory space and denial of service (there is also a potential for exploitation to achieve code execution). The issue arises from a race condition that may occur during the execution of the rds_tcp_kill_sock function at the time of cleanup […]
For many years in the USA, it has been common practice to require candidates for various positions to provide not only a resume but also a cover letter. In recent years, the importance of this aspect has started to decline — as early as 2016, only about 30% of employers requested cover letters. This is easy to explain — HR specialists conducting initial screenings often have too much […]
New technological processes will first be implemented in the production of server products. The discrete graphics processor from 2021 will be unique in many ways: the use of EUV lithography, spatial layout with multiple chips, and Intel's first experience in releasing a serial product using a 7 nm technology. Intel remains hopeful of mastering the 5 nm technology. Following the successful implementation of 7 nm technology, the revenues for investors and the company itself should rise. In […]
Below is a brief overview of how to move to France for work in IT: what kind of visa to expect, what salary is required for this visa, and how to adapt your resume to local traditions. The current political situation. Not out of butthurt, but purely for factual purposes. (c) The situation now is that all non-EU immigrants, regardless of their level […]
