So they want symmetric complement of the ancient Knight Processor where there was NaN encoded so that divide by zero wasn't an exception but just a return NaN.

sometimes called audit or journal tables.

Every time something is updated or deleted, the entire previous record is inserted into its corresponding _A table with who did it and when (and optionally for what transaction number)

so delete from foo results in an insert into foo_A before the delete occurs. so update to bar results in an insert into bar_A before the update occurs and rolling back a delete results in picking the old values out of the _A table and rolling back an update results in picking the old values out of the _A table and inserting the current values into the _A table before the updating the main table.

does no one know about _A tables anymore? This has been a solved thing since the 1970s

Well the easiest way to give people secure systems is to ensure that they are able to change the software themselves. So just require 90 days prior to end of support, that the manufacturers publish information that would allow independent their parties to build, install and run their own custom work on those systems. Basic hardware documentation goes a very long way with the Open Source community and without it we would only be able to support systems that the FSF community reverse engineers.

It is that lack of information, which prevents hardware drivers from entering the Linux Kernel main tree; which along with Tivoization are the leading drivers of e-waste and unsecured systems.

Please do the VIC-II chip next

Yeah, that was like trying to program when my ex-wife wanted attention.

Just wish I could have typed half as well as Hugh Jackman in Swordfish; then I wouldn't feel so sorry for all of the bugs I introduced into production because of her.

Clearcase was utter crap. 6 hour code checkouts and 2 weeks to setup a new developer is a freaking joke. I literally did a conversion from Clearcase to git and reduced the setup time to 15 minutes and this is for a code base older than Clearcase is.

Not to mention the absolutely bad design for handling merge conflicts (punt to human if more than 1 person touched a file seriously???)

Well the Systemd developers got sent death threats.

Heck the cryptocurrency community has repeatedly sent death threats to the very people working on their root of trust.

People just plain suck

But I was born in 2002 and I still don't get this crap. It is like people are begging to be psychologically controlled for max financial extraction...
