Ansible internally abstracts all its SSH bits into a 'connection plug-in', the initial goal is implementing another one of those. So with one or two extra lines in ansible.cfg you will get a much faster Ansible, with no other chan

The layering inside the kernel is completely different... Kernel Connection Multiplexor Facebook’s primary motivation was to gain access to the un-encrypted bytes in kernel space. KCM is used to decode the framing, and ma

Cloud Postgres is also hilariously hard limited to 100 simultaneous connections (the default). Doesn't matter how much RAM you give it. My experience with GCP in the past 4 months has led me to revise my "friends don't let fr

It seems this would break a number of libraries (can't name one, but certain I've seen it), although per the article it would be a simple affair for the browser to reify the encoded AST into a compatible representation, especially

They're asking for funding to spend on a risk-free attempt at GIL removal (risk-free since it won't bone PyPy mainline), if the attempt meaningfully succeeded I'd imagine their next step would be making it the default. A full

Side note: whatever happened to article-sized advertising from computer periodicals? Just like this one, they actually manage to be informative while remaining sober and honest about their intention. Not to mention it includes enough prose

Don't forget that electrical grid transmission losses cause massive efficiency problems before centrally generated power ever reaches that car charging point -- on the order of 30% or more, and conversion from AC to DC at the charging

The problem is simple enough that it could be solved client side, with some precomputed metadata from the server (an 8-bit integer for e.g. ReplayGain). That could be implemented as a little checkbox that twiddles the volume control from JS

No, they can be slippery as all hell. Ask a question by e-mail, expect a definitive yes/no answer, instead receive a phone call that's instantly claimed to be "off the record", and receive a parable about a nameless othe

Throwing random code over the wall is fairly harmless, until it sees any level of popularity, at which point you become the sole point of contact for a sea of people expecting bug fixes for free. That can be rewarding, but it can also be in

Bookmarking always struck me as a 90s solution to just having fulltext search and analytics over your browser history, there have been a few attempts at browsers that addressed this head-on, but they've all died off over time IMO just

98% of the difficulty in implementing a rich text editor is already present in every browser, its hard to call it wheel reinvention at that point. Drawing a caret and responding to key presses by mutating the dom is about the only thing lef

Perhaps I'm just old and grumpy, but the video seemed to be more about the people in it than the library itself. I guess it was pretty fun to make, but bleh, a little overkill for a JS lib?
