    I don't know exactly how long loading value from a TPM takes, but my gut says it would be much too long to do it on task switch. Almost certainly fine for waking up from suspend th…

    The man page ld.so has ENVIRONMENT section that looks pretty good. Otherwise one of the most reliable options is to simply grep the source code for calls to getenv, I would not be …

    Please just buy a proper differential probe for stuff like this, you definitely don't need the R&SRT-ZHD mentioned in the article. Otherwise loved the article btw.

    The 85ms is configurable per-output delay for time alignment. That same file in the docs claims a typical end-to-end latency of 10 to 15ms.

    Their have been many vulnerabilities in TrustZone implementations and both Google and Apple now use separate secure element chips. In Apple's case they put the secure element as pa…

    Here's an excerpt about the anti-rollback feature from Nvidia's docs on how the Tegra X1 SoC in the switch 1 boots [0] (called Tegra210 in the document) > By default, the boot ROM …

    It isn't that wild; the typical name for it is anti-rollback, and you probably have at least one device that implements it. Most Android devices have anti-rollback efuses to preven…

    It looks very likely chromium will be using jxl-rs crate for this feature [0]. My personal suspicion is that they've just been waiting for it to good enough to integrate and they d…

    Pebble watches run on Cortex-M microcontrollers which have less than 1MB of flash storage and RAM, I like Kotlin multiplatform but getting it to run on them is extremely unlikely. …

    They still use gerrit, that site is a code search UI that they have that is also a very nice way to navigate the code.

    Rust moves are a memcpy where the source becomes effectively unitialized after the move (that is say it is undefined to access it after the move). The copies are often optimized by…

    This is a very important point, careful use of GCs for a special subset of allocations that say have tricky lifetimes for some reason and aren't performance critical could have a m…

    It looks like the API of Alloy was at least designed in such a way that can somewhat easily change the GC implementation out down the line and I really hope they do cause Boehm GC …
