I'll bet Intel will be no more within 5 years. I think I read Apple
will be manufacturing chips? Maybe I'll migrate to apple.
I do not see the outrage over these chip issues. I'm deeply concerned
over all of this. I have watched as we have become more and more
dependent on computers.
Intel had / has a fiduciary responsibility and they blew it.
I'm a software developer so when I hear CPU vulnerabilities are being
patched with software I cringe.

At least one of the kids appears to be much worse than spectre.
"an attacker could launch exploit code in a virtual machine (VM) and
attack the host system from there – the server of a cloud hoster, for
example. Alternatively, it could attack the VMs of other customers
running
on the same server."
"Intel's Software Guard Extensions (SGX), which are designed to protect
sensitive data on cloud servers, are also not Spectre-safe."
