Same here. initially i too couldn't remember for sure.

Then i remembered the scene from Terminator 2 (1991) in which it looks up Sarah Connor's phone-number and home-address in a phone-book! :-)

This is https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-2633... originally discovered in April 2021.

The issue was this leaking of previously stored data in system memory, due to reusing the system memory without re-initializing it.

    > If the userspace aapplication requests to initialise 1 byte,
    > the driver will round that up to a full 4096 bytes, and allocate that much memory.  
    >
    > However, it will only initialise the first byte, leaving the rest in its prior state.
    > The user can then access the remaining 4095 bytes which have been untouched,  
    > thus gaining access to the contents of uninitialised memory.

Apparently patched in the currently available latest drivers starting from

- AMD PSP driver 5.17.0.0

- AMD Chipset Driver 3.08.17.735

Nice App.

I was trying to create some web-UI like this to read my own dump of bookmarks/notes on various devices.

What language/frameworks did you use for the web UI?

Is the source available somewhere gitlab/github?

if anything, the behaviour described is the exact opposite of Gell-Mann amnesia.

You sir/madam, have mastered the art of saying a lot and yet saying nothing.

This would hurt during the exploring phase of development by eliminating frequent small iterative increments towards the ideal architecture/implementation.

I thought so too. But, it seems the Wired has the original article and that is still up.

Apparently some crosspost was taken down at ArsTechnica. Not sure how that works.

Posting the archive.org link as the direct link appears to have been taken down.

For the Nth time (not you), Github is NOT git.

This is "just" the CPU. Not the SoC/motherboard.

Whoever designs the SoC/motherboard incorporating this CPU shall determine the answers to the above 3 questions...

Common reasons for proprietary kernel / vendor blobs are BT/WiFi, GPU, PMU. So, whether the end-users will have access to the source or ability to choose/customise, will depend on whether open or closed variants are chosen for each of these controllers in the final product.

BTW, have you checked-out the Pinebook? https://pine64.com/product/14%e2%80%b3-pinebook-pro-linux-la...

Looking at the snapshots in the article, in the middle of all this tech to optimally fit the banana slices, the dude forgot to apply peanut-butter!

Competing app stores would raise another problem though.

One that occurred with certifying agencies in the financial crisis of 2008.

In a world with competing app-stores, if a store does its scrutiny properly, and is seen as too strict, then the apps will flock to get listed in other less-strict app-stores. Thus all stores are incentivised to relax the scrutiny to retain apps for their own survival. Sometimes to the point of simply rubber-stamping their approvals on crappy stuff.

Thus the end-users lose the benefits of proper curation.

That's some Ai-powered "Smart Shoe-Rack" with blockchain technology, running on some kubernetes clusters with 5G connectivity right there!

Just do it, eh? :P

...and in related news, Apple, Huawei, and Qualcomm to begin shipping their 5nm chips later this year 2020.

Sounds exactly like something Jinyang would say.

And of-course, Erich is a lying person. :D

What will one do with that bit of info?

Find out who's currently excited about demonstrating middle-out compression to one's mates? :-)

+1 on having the feeling of FINALLY understanding wht the whole hoopla is after age 30. :D

BTW, based on the currently common lifestyle choices, most tech folks who are 35, likely do not have another similar 35 yrs left in them :-)

Please limit these mass identical msgs to ur app only. Plz don't spam HN.

Cool idea. Clearly there's a market for it. But stop trying to force ur way onto the HN top. Makes U look desperate and attaches a negative feeling to U and ur app/use-case (Hardly wht U want)

While I certainly prefer open discussions, I have noticed that most ppl strongly believe that certain sensitive topics, though they maybe a common theme with everyone, are best discussed 1-on-1.

At first sight, the ability to mass DM individuals on Slack, with all the recipients hidden from each other, just sounds wrong.

However, as Slack positions itself as the new email, and once we remember that email has had bcc since forever, this app/feature no longer appears so sinister anymore.

True. However, the same strategy - "Focus on alternate sources of lead generation" can be applied for applications on Android (and presumably other platforms) where 3rd-party app repositories and sideloading are supported.

The first rule of Growth Club is that you don't talk about Growth Club ...without asking for their email first!

Both are owned by the Coca Cola company now.

By now, birds must have developed a low opinion of us hoomans and our "cold-calling" techniques!

We either post mating calls, the bird equivalent of "Singles in your area..." or post danger calls, the bird equivalent of trolling flamebait.

I bet there's a market opportunity for a HN for Birds!

Until they allowed Coke back in and it promptly bought-out the various local brands!

Every bottled drink brand is now either owned by the Coca-Cola Company, or by PepsiCo Inc. :-(

But, what about when he posts pics of the cousin's kids wearing T-shirts he bought them containing propaganda slogans? :-)
