Why Facebook Hates (Some) Viral Videos
I recently heard one of my new favorite YouTubers, Drew Gooden, talking about a video his girlfriend tried to post on Facebook. She did post it, and it was quickly taken down, not by her, but by Facebook because the video had copyrighted music on it. The video showed her and her boyfriend on a racket ball court making ridiculously bad hits with aggressive rap playing in the background. The video wasn't making any money; it was just for their friends' amusement. Drew points out that, while his girlfriend's video got taken down, other accounts, monetized accounts, with millions of followers, put copyrighted music on their videos, and they don't get taken down.

Why Social Media Within Our Future Generations Will Doom Us All
In a world filled with iPhones, Instagram, Snapchat, and Facebook, we no longer have to call the house phone of our friends and have that awkward conversation with the parents, nor do we have to email or write to each other. I can ask my friend how their day was in a two second time period. Yes, it’s amazing, and yes, it just saves so much more time...but we’re now in 2018 and I feel that social constructs really depict our lives. I’m a 20-year-old musical theatre student and even my course tutors let us know what room we’re in for the day via a private Facebook group.

How We Stalk Ourselves
I'm going to make a confession here. Every time I post something to my Instagram account, I jump on to Snapchat and send my friends an extreme close up of my face, double chin and all, with the caption "pic on the 'gram, get on it, pls like and comment," or something of that ilk. It's a bit of an in-joke now, and I do it to be funny. But I find myself pulling down on my feed to see if those friends did actually heed my announcement and liked my photo.

Spectre Attack
In the era of computer systems, time and performance is very important. To achieve that, computer scientists works hard to make CPUs better and faster. Most of the modern CPUs in present devices around the world make use of a performance feature called speculative execution. Speculative execution improves the performance of the CPU. It does that by guessing future tasks and executing the instruction. In normal cases, the task comes from the memory and it is executed by CPU, and results are stored in the storage. For better performance using speculative execution, the task is guessed by CPU and executed. When the task comes from memory, the CPU makes sure the correctness of its initial guess. If the guess was incorrect, the CPU reverts speculative execution. If the guess was correct, a significant performance gain is achieved.
