The Closes Are Walling In Edition
Top Story
- The Internet Archive has been hacked and credentials for 31 million users stolen. (Bleeping Computer)
The passwords are encrypted with Bcrypt, which is pretty robust, but if you shared a password between the archive and some other site, it's time to change it and also to stop doing that.
Tech News
- Turkey has banned Discord because, well, Turkey. (Reuters)
If you let a turkey into your house, it's going to do turkey things.
- 80% of developers will need to "upskill" by 2027 to keep pace with the growing demands of goat vomit. (IT Professional)
Wait, my mistake. It says here "generative AI".
- The walls are closing in on (throws dart) ELON MUSK. (The Verge)
Sure, he's worth a quarter of a trillion dollars, but we've got him for sure this time.
- Why GOV.UK's Exit this Page doesn't use escape. (Beeps)
Sounds like nonsense at first, but it's actually a useful function and the reasoning is sound.
- Are Intel's new CPUs just bad for multi-threaded performance? (CPU Benchmark)
The eight core laptop 288V runs like a four year old AMD 5800U - also with eight cores, and the 24 core desktop 285K runs like a two year old 12 core AMD 7900. In both cases the AMD chips use half the power.
The Intel chips have great single-threaded performance but multi-threaded test results so far are meh at best.
