Meltdown & Spectre Information and Discussion
#44
Acutally if we consider the fundamental ethical business model of the proprietary computer industry we can derive the creedo: "Don't look back. You're not going that way." though Roks take is perfectly funny too. Rush to development is what this mess is all about. I believe a cautionary approach is better, given that this flaw involves proprietary code that has such a cross platform impact and scope. The best approach would be for Intel to release open source CPU code, not expect software modification. Some say Linux in general would be better off to drag its feet a little with this issue and consider a little more in depth what the suggested mitigations might open a door to. Could be a bad moon rising.
