On a related note, I've been looking at GPU switching on Macbooks, mostly to get it working better on Linux. This work might also be useful to keep 2011 MBPs with a damaged dedicated GPU working with just the Intel card. If you have a

I was more referring to the almost exclusive use of single letter variable names. If one would use at least short words to name things, the implementation would be a whole lot more understandable.

You can get kdb+ for free from here: http://kx.com/software-download.php However, they've been working on a new version of k that's not publicly available yet and I suppose the kparc stuff requires that.

k/q really doesn't have to be this unreadable, that's just Arthurs style. Here's some code in C by him for comparison: http://kx.com/q/cs107/a.c

There is already a second fibre link in these setups that has higher throughput and not much more latency.

I'm just in the middle of building a similar system. As another commenter mentioned, you can use a log / event sourcing for this. A log basically is a stream of changes to a DB. I found this the best introduction to it so far: ht

So it's a schema plus interned values? Do you think it might be better on real-world data to use just one mapping of value id to value instead of one per column/key?

That's really cool. From the way the cursor flashes in the video, it seems to refresh the screen pretty often? Does it do that constantly, 30/60 frames per second or only if something changes?

Check out OpenSMTPd, that makes setting up an email server so much easier. It's still far from what it could be, but pure bliss compared to Postfix.

How well does node.js work on embedded devices? Could I run this on my OpenWRT router (560Mhz ARM, 128MB RAM, 8MB flash)?

>Runtime.JS uses global non-blocking event loop to dispatch tasks for the whole system. Preemption is supported by design (and by V8), but haven't been implemented yet. How would you implement preemption in an event loop based syste

OSv ( https://github.com/cloudius-systems/osv ) for example simply targets the virtualized hardware of popular hypervisors, which gets you pretty far.

Very interesting, how do you control the steering wheel? Most solutions I've seen for that were either really clunky (and unsafe, as they obstructed the airbag etc.) or used/replaced the power steering. I just assumed you would ha

These systems have been available for several years now, so I don't really see how many people would buy a retrofit option. People don't even upgrade their car stereo systems anymore.

I wonder what the long term goal is? Getting acquired by some auto manufacturer? I don't see many people that own modern enough cars (having the required electronics/mechanics already installed so all that's needed is a senso

I suspect this is because he only benchmarks small data sets, even the largest one used easily fits into the CPU cache. It would be interesting to see the number of cache misses for each benchmark, perf stat should be able to record that da

You're completely right about shared_ptr not being the right tool for this use case. However, I haven't tried it but just looked up the implementation of std::shared_ptr in GCC 4.9.0, and accessing it is exactly the same as with a

Yes, at least with raw lxc containers that's the case. You can simply see the processes in the container in the host top.

Any hints on how hard it is to call C libraries from within Swift? This might be a great way to quickly develop a native UI.

There's also the ODROID-U3, which is roughly comparable to the Minnowboard, and it's just 59$. http://hardkernel.com/main/products/prdt_info.php
