New blog post: on branch predictor:
https://t.co/i346z01fMJ

This time I dived into branch predictor and BTB of modern CPU's. I must admit it wasn't easy to understand what I was doing.

There are many open questions. Like... is there a BTB on M1? There is _some_ branch cache...

A 21 year old is an adult NOT a child. Old enough to drive,vote,marry,get a job,& have kids. Old enough to be sent to the gallows if they commit a “rarest of the rare” kind of crime.

Of all the excuses,the age excuse is the most laughable.But it shows there’s no other defence

This is the COOLEST. A Google Earth-type representation of the planet. Every green dot is a radio station. Click any dot to listen in. It’s like cultural teleportation. You could spend hours with this thing… https://t.co/rdEHUUfgvk

@JensJot @RichardDawkins Whatever is the correct decision, making mockery of the researcher by saying ‘BioNTech doesn’t even have a website.’ is definitely not the correct way to handle the choice.

UPenn "told me that they’d had a meeting and concluded that I was not of faculty quality,” she said. ”When I told them I was leaving, they laughed at me and said, ‘BioNTech doesn’t even have a website.’”
