    jokerfied Love living in the age of ubiquitous hardware side channels because our wonderful for-profit electronics industry is focused on getting the chips to go faster and have more features above all else.

    Sometimes I think we need a radical new approach to computing but I'm not sure what it is. Probably involves the burial of the instruction set architecture approach (it's already dead, everything is microcoded anyway). Maybe logic processors. Maybe hardware stack machines (unlikely). Transport-triggered architectures might play a role.

    Death to America and PCs.
