Dear author, if you're the one sharing the article: you misspelled "retpoline" in your very first usage of the word.

Must've been a rowhammer attack flipping some bits...

Haven't there been solar storms this week?
Maybe it wasn't malicious, maybe it was cosmic rays.

A spectre silently fixed the spelling, thanks for the feedback ;)

I see you fixed rewrite as well, just as I was getting ready to point it out :P

Yes, sorry for that, I was really more focused on getting the story details than the spelling (plus I'm not a native speaker as you probably guessed).

It wasn't obvious at all when reading - your written English is excellent. Only after revisiting and re-reading more carefully I noticed you used the construction "So ...." slightly more than a native speaker would have.
Thanks for the great article.

Thank you, both for being kind and also providing a constructive feedback. "So" is very common trap for French speakers :D
