I have stocked my fridge with soft tofu tubes, a bunch of spring onions, some other veg, and I have a bunch of other bits ready for tomorrow's Kimchi Tofu Stew cooking effort @codethink -- I hope the Codethings bellies are ready.

Today's #adventofcode really kicked my arse. @ericwastl writes some fiendish puzzles from time to time. This one takes way too long for my solution to run (3+ seconds) so I'm going to have to get my optimisation hat on.

today in "fucky things your CPU might do to fuck up your crypto": Intel SA-00219 is a bug where an integrated GPU has access to the first two DWORDs in cache lines so apparently you have to 8-byte align and allocate 8 bytes extra for garbage before any cryptographic secrets

I ran the Bolton Bauble 10k trail with Phil and @reiterative and it was hard. Final time was 1:18:49. Before and after pics included. I only fell over five times.

Now United can't marshall their catering to the plane, despite knowing when it'd be ready for them. How is this company not bankrupt?

Oh fuck. My lufthansa flight has been bumped onto United. I am probably going to die. Not sure if that is better, or worse, than going back to the UK now.

This morning I was reminded this morning of an incident this week.
I was laughed at for writing sci-fi/fantasy as an author.
βYou do know youβre an adult that lives in the real world donβt you?β
So just to prove a point, retweet if youβre an adult who reads sci-fi/fantasy.

Jesus suppurating fuck, will the horror never end?
We present #plundervolt TL;DR First ever fault injection attack on Intel SGX enclaves. Abuses an undocumented software-based interface to undervolt the CPU. Extract full crypto keys and trigger memory safety violations in bug-free code. Read the paper at plundervolt.com

Just posted an RFC proposing to demote @rustlang's Apple **32bit** targets to Tier 3, as Apple removed support for them upstream.
Are you using those targets? Any feedback? Please tell us in the RFC:

Experiment was both positive and negative, results - wise
27:18 unofficial time is good when I say I was trying for a sustainable 10k pace.
But when I say it was super hard, it shows my experiment around pre-feeding was a fail.

This one is important! If you're using Rust on Embedded, thinking about it, or have already decided not to yet, let us know!
Your feedback helps make Rust a better way to develop embedded software!
Weβre doing another survey this year! Please share far and wide: blog.rust-lang.org/2019/12/0β¦
