    Tweet is addressed to several accounts, one of them is KyivIndependent which reports Ukraine related news. The tweet looks like a death wish from RU supporter.

    The problem solved by arena allocators here is to avoid many calls to malloc. System allocator is slow, especially in multithreaded environment. Instead of calling malloc 1000 time…

    Apple spends a lot of money at TSMC (about 75% of TSMC 7nm production was for Apple chips in 2018, according to a link below). AMD also makes its chips at TSMC and TSMC fab is a li…
