The microcode update will probably be automatic but it might also be distributed as a bios update.

Realistically there’s no way to tell if you have an affected unit or not (Intel hasn't provided any information that would help). Nor is there any guarantee that the microcode update will prevent future issues. It appears that there is both microcode and manufacturing issues at play here.

It's not uncommon for B2B software to isolate each customer in their own database.

Yes, but that is not the same as assuming there would only be one customer. I think your interpretation makes more sense.

How do you propose bad behavior is punished without fines?

I do think the fine should be collected but the resulting cash should be destroyed by the federal reserve.

The goal should be safety and that’s it. Not a quick buck for local governments and traffic camera vendors.

Oh I misunderstood your original comment. What incentive do the towns/vendors have to setup these systems in that case?

The incentive is to make their streets safer. If they don't think the systems do that, then clearly they shouldn't be setting up the systems?

I don't know if you've noticed but governments rarely do the right thing for the sake of it.

The towns can still pay vendors, just as they pay vendors for lots of things. They just can't keep any of the ticket revenue generated.

The vendors can now just tip the town officials for choosing them.

It typically means that they prefer somebody onsite but are willing to do remote for somebody exceptionally qualified.

I doubt that. It would be exceedingly stupid to commute to NY just to share oxygen with their worst employees.

Low-fi university sites are often maintained by professors who have been around a long time and have a "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" attitude.

In this case, it appears the author is still active at the university. https://www.higp.hawaii.edu/index.php/people/peter-j-mougini...

Or a "I'm too busy to spend any more time on it now that it is working, and it's not even worth the risk of turning it over to a TA"

I would guess that they want to create more high quality tooling for Lua because that's what every game published on Roblox has to use. By unifying their stack it could be argued that they're reinvesting it what makes Roblox great.

Go modules can be hosted in any Git repository. The Go toolchain also keeps hashes of the selected tag so if you've reviewed it once it will never change without you explicitly giving it the ok.

> giving it the ok

You mean giving it the Go ahead? ;)

Also any svn/hg repository afaik
