Speculating the entire x86-64 instruction set in seconds with one weird trick
This just cinched to me that we need to sunset hardware x86 and run code that cannot be recompiled on emulators. x86 had a good run, but it becoming increasingly obvious that maintaining backward compatibility in modern high performance parts is incredibly expensive and bug ridden.<p>At this point sunsetting x86 is not even a pipe dream, most people carry ARM powered computers in their pockets and Apple recently demonstrated that it can be quite successful in high performance devices.
