More likely our dementia patient President forgot he had already done this. (And yes, based on Biden's speeches in the 90s vs. the 2000 campaign vs. now, Joe Biden is suffering from advanced dementia of some form.)

I happen to doubt that it's dementia. I think it's some kind of unique disorder that's due to the brain surgeries he's had.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

The ThinkBook Transparent Display Laptop concept even comes with a built-in drawing tablet. Lenovo just needs to find something worth seeing on the other side. The usefulness is as clear as the screen

Benchmarks play a crucial role in driving informed decisions for users and vendors by separating science from marketing. You mean SELECT * FROM table isn't fast enough?

When we outsource cognitive tasks to technology – such as flying a plane, navigating, or making a judgement – research shows we may lose the ability to perform those tasks ourselves. I can't even remember how to write a physical letter

"Hotpatching" originated in Windows Server, cuts way down on update reboots. "Fool me once, shame on - shame on you. Fool me - you can't get fooled again"
My memory is as faulty as always, but I remember them saying this with the original NT 4 release, and either Weven or Vista (or both). Maybe even Weleven?

Oh, perfect... So now the system will get broken while we are working?

I seem to remember this promise with XP SP3, Windows 7, and Windows 8. However, there really are fewer patches requiring a reboot each month. The problem is there is still one patch that requires it each month.

Computer science deals with concurrency, but what about simultaneity? "People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly... timey-wimey... stuff."
But...why?
I...guess I can see it if you wanted to "run this logic as it was defined at time 'x'", but it does seem to be prone to creating worse spaghetti than the alternatives. Or am I just missing something (as usual)?

What I meant was: lookup how the logic was defined some time in the past, and execute the routine based on that code, rather than how it is currently defined.
So, a tax bill could be calculated based on the old rules instead of the current (when running on old data)

Norwegian laws are that way. If you are dragged to court for a crime committed a long time ago, and the laws have been changed in the meantime, you will be judged by the laws that were in force at the time of the crime.
As far as I know, this is common practice in most jurisdictions. Maybe if a law has been lifted, the punishment has been reduced, you may be judged by the updated law, but not if the law has been tightened, increasing the punishment. (That is not permitted under the United Nations Declaration of human rights.)
As far as I know, enforcing this is still a semi-manual procedure. Paid access (much too expensive for common man) to the electronic version of the laws of Norway, you can retrieve laws in force at any given point in time. (The free version gives you access to those in force today.) From there on, the rest is manual work.

Simultaneous and Heterogeneous Multithreading (SHMT) may be the solution that can harness the power of a device's CPU, GPU, and AI accelerator all at once, according to a research paper from the University of California, Riverside. Multi all the things!

|

Read the article and it glosses over a fundamental assumption. Like all multithreading systems, you'll only benefit if your problem lends itself to this specific solution.
