So let's think that further: they'll determine the way to get most money. If your processor is slow, encrypting your data may generate more profit.
As a consequence, you should buy faster processors quickly.
The processor industry will like that 
Ah, now I see: the hackers are paid by the those companies trying to sell their fastest processors!

In this article, Ram Lakshmanan goes over the most popular myths about Garbage Collection. Don’t worry — he’ll also debunk them to make sure you won’t repeat the same mistakes ever again. It's not on Tuesdays?

Reading the title I was thinking about Garbo truck collecting bins from outside home. Then again I got woken up today early by one of those as I left my balcony door open overnight.

Microsoft reveals how Microsoft Spectre updates can slow your PC down.

When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others.

Any software patch for Spectre Variant 2 is going to slow down a system. Other tests show the slow down is within the margin of error for most benchmarks, but noticeable in a few.

The new Colgate Smart Electronic Toothbrush uses Apple ResearchKit with the user's permission to crowdsource toothbrushing data so the company can "anticipate the future of oral care." I can think of no joke that is funnier than the fact this product exists

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

I'd hope that number would be vanishingly small, but this is being sold on the Apple Store.

WTF?
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Epyc, aimed at one- and two-socket systems, isn't necessarily faster than comparable Intel Xeons, but its mix of features—lots of threads and cores, and more memory and I/O bandwidth than Intel's latest Xeon offer—along with Intel-level performance make it a serious competitor in the server space.

Back in November, longtime rivals Intel and AMD shocked the computing world when the two companies announced that they’d be teaming up to create laptop chips that combined Intel’s Core line of processors with AMD’s Radeon graphics. "Dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!"

A security researcher is urging owners of Western Digital MyCloud NAS devices to update the firmware of their portable hard-drives to fix a series of important security bugs he reported to the vendor, among which there is an easy exploitable and wormable hardcoded (backdoor) account. Because *no one* ever finds out about back doors

Understanding the basics of software architecture is more important than ever before, given the distributed nature of the software systems we’re now building, and the distributed nature of the teams building them. "Once the design is in place, there's just the trivial matter of writing the code."
Attributed (when I heard it) to Rumbaugh, but I kind of doubt it.

That was a very useful article
"There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare

Instruments in smart phones such as the accelerometer, gyroscope and proximity sensors represent a potential security vulnerability, according to researchers. Sounds like they just pressed '3', now feels like a '9', now they've dropped it

MyLiFi is a lamp that provides a secure, wireless, radiowave-free internet connection to nearby devices, all through the data-transferring power of LEDs. Whoa, man. Look at the strobes!
Yeah, "invisible LEDs". I'm betting on headache-inducing flickers.

Morse Code or Semaphore anybody?
And I'm sure that some enterprising AD Service will figure out a way to subliminally advertise by finding some weakness in this.
Nevermind that it was reported a year or so ago that a way to breach air-gaps is by utilizing the existing LED's on a computer.
