Their 64bit kernels can run a 32bit distro too. With multiarch you also get to cherry-pick packages of the other arch.

It does look unpromising; even something like nacl_dyncode_copy is too restrictive for the PyPy JIT (can't patch jumps).

The cards have two links that do 10Gbps in each direction. The 16MB buffer will hold 7ms at worst (double if the links are unbalanced and the buffers shared), which might be okay for web content. Frankly CloudFlare should focus on making

RED has too many tunables and overfits for a single traffic profile. Fair queuing CoDel just needs a bit more testing to become the Linux default (the current default is a fifo, which is horrible but simple). In addition to that, a lot mo

Password reuse is still bad, your password doesn't have to be breached through a database dump. You could be accessing a compromised site, or get caught by any number of network attacks from stripping to mixed scripting to dumping a s

Ubuntu is splitting logind from systemd with no help from the systemd maintainers, because some gnome projects have started requiring logind. That effort is spent undoing Lennart's work swallowing most of the consolekit code base into

(Storage=none is streaming things through the journal, which I have no use for) Apache2 and Nginx are modular. Let me tell you the story of a small web application. Once upon a time, requests were hitting an Apache server, dispatched to

I can't disable the journal, for example. If I run something more full-featured, I'll still be streaming things through the journal. It's not at all like the kernel does it. With Linux, there are multiple competing implemen

It's monolithic because you can't pick and choose the components. You have to use all of systemd, or none of it. You can't replace bits of it, or use just parts of it.

journald was enabled in Fedora very recently, on the premises that no one would feel a thing, just an implementation detail of systemd. Now systemd's syslog compat is seen as unnecessary overhead, and at some point the goalposts will

PyPy reuses the Python stdlib as much as possible (though they do have patched up and/or rpython versions of some modules). PyPy's advantage is performance and hackability, but the stdlib isn't critical to that.

by Tobu 13y ago
(e)glibc and friends are fairly critical since they are the one exposing kernel features. Those that save a bit of space on embedded systems also have a selling point. For C++, aside from must-haves like open-source licences and community

There may be ways to do it right now, but it's hard to fight the fact that Lennart doesn't want it to be supported. He's already thinking of deprecating initramfs builders that don't have systemd running inside (which c

I haven't seen it in the discussion, but systemd's journal has horrible read performance. Apparently it's poorly indexed, or the disk layout has issues.

systemd's philosophy seems to be “bundle everything, attack anything we haven't assimilated”. The source is relevant.

Patch and diff mean the same thing in this context, AMHA the original translation is a legitimate clarification. But guy does work better.

That's an abort(). libmkv encounters an invalid file, throws an exception, vlc exits immediately.

Secunia does seem selectively clueless (I think of it more as fear-mongering, what with the Twitter posturing and stealth edits of their reports), but AFAIK their vulnerability index exists to be linked from their "software inspector&q

I like github-backup[1], which I think does something slightly different; it mirrors github issues and the rest of github's non-git metadata. [1] https://github.com/joeyh/github-backup

Linus is a good, pragmatic designer and a fantastic manager. Do give him some credit for fostering the kernel community.

While they could update the list, it's still typo correction. As implemented, the url needs to be typed in the location bar and the domain can't exist. Edit: sorry about that last part. http://amazon.co does exist and
