@kelseyz I don't see what gender has to do with programming. I really just don't.

If someone is cam program then they fit the job. That's really all there is to it.

But people care so much on both sides that I feel pretty stupid for not getting it.

@Morgane Mew.

@ceiphiedknight My head: "This isn't bad at all! What's th- oh this is in *fahrenheit*, isnt it 😐 "

@iliana Oh.. thank you for explaining. ☹️

@iliana Can you tell me what this is about? If anything? :o

@wxcafe I knew I kept my 486 for a reason.

@wxcafe Haven't considered microkernels - that'll be interesting~

Sadly I am fairly confident the PS4 is monolithic. Not sure about the XBox.

@wxcafe It depends on the bug. It's actually two of them: Meltdown is Intel only and is the worse one, letting you read kernel memory space. Spectre is cross-architecture and lets you read the memory of other user programs, but not the kernel.

With consoles you're most likely going to want to read the kernel memory space. You might still get some interesting things from other user space processes, but probably less so.

This is why I said "more resistant" rather than "safe" ;)

@wxcafe Most consoles are AMD which doesnt really use speculation execution, so they will be more resistant to this. Alas!

@Mirzaba See if they have workflow videos?

@Mirzaba Okay I don't get this often but wow. I had no idea this was a 3D scene until I got to the WebGL pane.

Niiiice~

@jessiscah24 Well, there's my first purchase for 2018.

@aleksy Not *the* goal but it certainly can be *a* goal.

Personally to me it looks like you're already there! If not, then certainly somewhere good down the road.

@Morgane my least favorite part of any day :o

@BadWrongFun I don't know, you seem to fail to be boring on mastodon. Shows you've got it in there.
