[12:23:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> methinks Bytram wins
[12:24:02] <boru> Indeed, the venerable 555.
[12:24:03] <Bytram> yuppers
[12:24:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> luck of the draw. i think chromeass just copied the db.
[12:24:30] <Bytram> there was a time I could give you a breakdown of how a 555 worked, too.

[12:26:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> sigh, almost got the rehash install working up to db stuff but don't have time this morning to chase the one remaining bug.
[12:26:42] <Bytram> "one remaining bug" -- where have I heard that before? ;)
[12:26:52] <Bytram> but seriously, thanks a bunch for working through it!!
[12:27:27] <Bytram> 555: "Introduced in 1972[3] by Signetics,[4] the 555 is still in widespread use due to its low price, ease of use, and stability. It is now made by many companies in the original bipolar and in low-power CMOS technologies. As of 2003, it was estimated that 1 billion units were manufactured every year.[5] The 555 is the most popular integrated circuit ever manufactured."

[12:33:24] <Bytram> well, at least it IS building. Unless there is something wrong with the build that precludes it being able to install. :P

[12:53:48] <boru> Are they just regurgitating what a ROP chain is?
[12:53:55] <boru> Because, this is far from new.
[12:54:10] <Bytram> no... *I* am to explain a term used in a story submission
[12:54:16] <Bytram> https://arxiv.org
[12:54:18] <upstart> ^ 03SMoTherSpectre: exploiting speculative execution through port contention
[12:54:19] <boru> Sure, but that paper, I mean.
[12:54:26] <Bytram> oh. really?
[12:55:02] <boru> Jesus, this paper reads awful, even from just the abstract.
[12:55:11] <Bytram> ESL
[12:55:34] <boru> Their 'novel' approach is by no means novel.
[12:55:35] <Bytram> It appears to me that the key point is this line (though I could well be mistaken) "SMoTher is a fine-grained side channel that detects contention based on a single victim instruction. "
[12:55:53] <Bytram> maybe instead of novel it is just a short story?
[12:56:19] <boru> Novel is their words, though.
[12:56:33] <Bytram> yes.
[12:56:49] <Bytram> so, do you think we should not run the story?
[12:57:30] <boru> Looking at the journal it's published in, no. I doubt it's been peer reviewed.
[12:57:51] <boru> And it's also years old.
[12:57:54] <boru> 2015.
[12:58:36] <Bytram> okay... I see "(Submitted on 5 Mar 2019)"
[12:58:37] <boru> But even in 2015, it wasn't novel.
[12:58:45] <Bytram> where do you see 2015?

[12:59:32] <boru> Added to IEEE xplore in 2016.
[12:59:46] <Bytram> I'll take your word for it then (story queue is empty and trying to find a story I could releaSe quickly.) ... thanks so much for the insight
[13:00:13] <Bytram> ahh got it. thanks SO MUCH!
[13:00:46] <boru> Sorry for the grumpy teardown. I should be helping by submitting stories.
[13:01:00] <Bytram> I was about 2 minutes away from pushing it out on the site!
[13:01:07] <Bytram> no, no problem at all!
[13:01:09] <boru> But what's described in the paper is really far from newsworthy, even in 2015.
