3. The history of Tech is people from other fields, usually career drop outs, deciding they could have a more comfortable life if they gave up their passion and did something easy …

This sounds nothing like the gradual leak problem described.. An OOM killer is great once you actually run out of resources, removing virtual resources to always run out and play r…

What if the thing you kill is in the critical stack to saving your work? If it isn't I don't really understand why you would be swapping it in a lot I would view the OOm solution a…

Economy size is very interesting in itself and has a lot of relevance in some decisions, but per capita has always seemed more important to me, i.e. the Italy and Russia comparison…

I think the doubling costs are pushing toward 1 fab a generation and TSMC is 1 year ahead.. The model I would make is that TSMC has maybe 4 more generations as Samsung and Intel lo…
