Leo and I discuss the week's major security events and discuss questions and comments from listeners of previous episodes. We tie up loose ends, explore a wide range of topics that are too small to fill their own episode, clarify any confusion from previous installments, and present real world 'application notes' for any of the security technologies and issues we have previously discussed.

This week Steve and Leo examine the amazing evolution of microprocessor internals. They trace the development of the unbelievably complex technologies that have been developed over the past 25 years to wring every last possible cycle of performance from an innocent slice of silicon.

In commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the invention of the LASER, this week Steve is going to relate a story from his own past, 39 years ago, containing a strong moral about the importance of getting out from behind the video game screen and actually building something.

Steve and Leo continue with their "fundamentals of computing" series this week, building upon all previous installments, to explain the details of multi-threading, multi-tasking, multi-processing, multi-core ... the "multi"-verse of modern computing.
