#10 [Talk] What is wrong with our CPU's and what are operating systems doing about it?
Closed Opened by huzaifas.

Reopen Issue

This talk discusses various processor related flaws which have come to light in the recent few months, which include Spectre, MELTDOWN, POP SS etc and discusses them in some detail and how operating systems are currently mitigating them.

This talk should be interesting to any one who have heard of these flaws, but they feel that the existing material is too technical to go through.

Though this is a security talk, it should be relevant to fedora because of its widespread use and the fact that we are almost first to fix any security flaw as compared to other linux distros out there.

Hmmm. After hearing this talk, what will be different in the audience? Is the goal to have Fedora Ambassadors and other advocates able to talk knowledgeably about these flaws when presenting Fedora operating systems to potential users, or is there more than that?

As currently constituted, I'd rather send you to a _different_conference to talk about what Fedora is doing to address these flaws, rather than have this for a Flock audience.

I agree with you, also i spoke with team internally and i would rather talk about something which is more relevant to Fedora contributors here. I submitted another talk (which is closer to my heart) at:
https://pagure.io/flock/issue/12

I think we can mark this one as closed now.

Okay :)

If you do want to take this talk to another conference, let us know!
