2009/8/4-13 [Computer/SW/OS/Windows] UID:53239 Activity:kinda low | 8/3 VMWare + Windows XP + Validation question. I need to test stuff with
Service Pack 3 installed. I have a valid key that I own (yeah yeah I
actually *bought* a copy, please don't flame me for supporting evil

disable the rest the copies?

Why 16 registers and not, say, 32?
\_ To double the accessible register count, you need one more bit

2009/2/13-18 [Computer/HW/Memory, Computer/Domains] UID:52565 Activity:nil | 2/13 Question about memory relocation:
These days most h/w has a relocation register. Could the relocation
address be stored on disk or in kernel memory vs. in a register? Yes,
that would be slow but is it possible? Do you *need* a relocation
register or does it exist purely for performance reasons? I was
reading some paper written by IBM in the 1960s that seemed to

UCLA is ranked above Berkeley. UCSD is ranked above
Berkeley. Irvine is ranked one below Berkeley.
Berkeley has seriously gone done in the past
two decades. I'm not surprised.

in the past 15 years?
\_ all the Cal grads I know with MBAs are in VC or finance.
maybe they are just better at risk analysis... starting a company
is not a great way to make money!

2009/9/23-10/5 [Academia/GradSchool] UID:53395 Activity:moderate | 9/23 I'm in grad school part time, and the professor I was trying to get
to advise me just sent me "What you suggest (remote, part-time, topic
formulation) doesn't fit my advising style..." Does anyone know
what "topic formulation" might mean in this context? I come with
funding from work, but the topics I can choose are somewhat limited.
Could be a reference to that...
