@spodlife doesn't nail it imho.

hyperfocus is a perfect focus state : you can forget everything but the task at hand for a moment, allowing you to reach peak performance.

procrastination (at least with an #adhd twist) is when your brain is actively working against you to avoid the task you actually need to do, distracting you with every possible thing.

@jnk I only wish I won the mythical switch giving the ability to turn one into the other on demand as a reward !

The existence of hyperfocus implies the existence of hyperprocrastination #adhd

I'm incredibly pleased to announce that the microcode for the Intel 80386 has been decoded.

It was a group effort by a bunch of talented people to extract and correct the physical bits, but the major work of decoding them was done by reenigne - you may know him from such incredible PC demos as 8088 MPH and Area 5150, as well as being the person who decoded the 8088 microcode previously.

Please, check out his writeup.
