In this article is a 27-way graphics card comparison testing graphics cards from each generation going from the GeForce 8 series through the GeForce GTX 900 series and ending with the $999 GeForce GTX TITAN X. I'm really hoping newer = better.

N.Y. Times, January 20: [^]. Asking “who’s losing?” misses a larger truth about how thoroughly Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google and Microsoft now lord over all that happens in tech. So, forget about Intel ?
An interesting op-ed piece, but, imho, not so deep; I would have liked to have seen a comparison of the "five" (particularly Apple) to the great vertically integrated cartels of the early 19th. century. Would have been more interesting if it mentioned the incredible amount of funding going into "virtual reality" (as with Magic Leap).

How and who will confirm that they got it right.
But by that time they will keep changing the versioning of internal dlls here and there. And while working on it later, we may end up pulling our hair looking the messed up libraries.
Cheers!!

That will happen when it no longer matters.

“Today’s best brain-computer interface systems are like two supercomputers trying to talk to each other using an old 300-baud modem,” said Phillip Alvelda, the NESD program manager. “Imagine what will become possible when we upgrade our tools to really open the channel between the human brain and modern electronics.” [^].
Fund the researchers and the hardware will come ?

Hey, found a new slogan: "A buggy OS for a buggy CPU". I wonder if the automotive industry will reply introducing a Windows 10 powered with Intel CPU Dune Buggy - then it will be a "Buggy with a buggy OS on a buggy CPU"!

None of these bugs seem to have a nerdy Star Trek related meme associated with them, so they'll probably be forgotten in a few years.
They don't make bugs like they used to! "I am Pentium of Borg. Division is futile. You will be approximated."

You may have heard that OpenSSH had an exploitable issue with some bad client code (which is actually two CVEs, CVE-2016-0777 and CVE-2016-0778). A follow up post on OpenSSH

AMD is making a stink about SYSmark, a popular benchmarking program that's been around for many years, and one the chip designer says is not reliable. *Gasp*

This post is not a tutorial on C++11 threads, but it uses them as the main threading mechanism to demonstrate its points. It starts with a basic example but then quickly veers off into the specialized area of thread affinities, hardware topologies and performance implications of hyperthreading. Your Wednesday blog fix

After the previous review of Remix OS I received a comment with interested information about Remix OS USB Tool. My small personal research found that Remix OS developers have a zero tolerance for the code licenses and work of other peoples. A cautionary tale?

What did he say about Microsoft? Did he mention Visual Studio?!
I hope he makes them fix all the bugs in there.

I will refrain from analysing this situation.

Except that he's talking about slapping a 35% tariff on products of US companies manufactured outside the US - which includes most computers and cell phones. "Rising tax tides float all prices", etc.
So, no victory for Android or Windows.
My long term goal is to live forever. So far, so good...
