But software can be written anywhere.

I do think Google has good engineers, but they are really not that indispensable

Not that unreasonable I guess?

Even an App is free, it doesn't mean you can distribute it without permission? I would say the case apply to restaurants as well. I can see good restaurants leverage this to negotiate favorable terms with platforms.

Well, it is safe to say this is hot garbage then.

I would love Google to remove all the self entitled BS from this statement, so they can act as an everyday faceless big company which is anyway what it is doing, not some moral beacon for the mass to look up to.

The statement exists only to generate traffic for the news outlet for spinning.

It is at will employment, the company makes it clear what you have done there, they want to have a say on it.

If you want independence, goes to academia instead (though it is not easy to obtain it either)

It is at will research funded by google, the researcher makes it clear what their findings were, they want the original research paper to have its say based on results not spin.

If google wants specific outcomes from research, go to the marketing department instead of funding real research.

You are offering a false choice / false dilemma:

Many of the comments on this thread are expressing concern and (more or less) asking 'why does it work like this?' and (in some cases) 'it would be better if it didn't work like this."

New to the hardware land, so the core argument here is that CISC instructions are not fixed in length, so decoding becomes less efficient?

It’s mostly that you can only pull instructions off the queue from the front, whereas with ARM since the size is fixed you can just pull them off anywhere.

I think with x86 Intel and AMD are basically brute forcing this by just pulling instructions off a random position and hoping it’s a correct offset, but it’s very inefficient.

Well, Oracle bought Sun, and the team behind it.

I would be more in the mood to praise Oracle for this development, had they not shown how far they could go to hurt Java's community/ecosystem just to squeeze a penny out of it.

Honestly more curious about how does the FTC verifies the submitted report to be an accurate representation of what the company is actually executing?

2B is not a big deal for Amazon or AWS

Fantastic news.

Go Europe, we need an alternative to compete.
