Ah, I failed to read “Inspired” somehow.

That’s a post from 20 hours ago, with 50 comments. Still, it’s useful, thanks!

I had this exact problem myself two weeks back. All the pre-Observable examples I found were for D3 v4, while D3 is now at v6. Some great resources in the thread, which I hadn’t found by Googling. Thanks!

When I commuted to the office my IP would change multiple times as I crossed from 4G to various WiFis. It would be really annoying to have to log in each time.

That is covered in the article.

Cortex doesn’t need a NoSQL database now, since about a year ago. It does need something S3-like. (I am a Cortex maintainer)

Here is the output from 'slabtop' that I captured at the time, right after a commanded cache drop - looks like dentry wasn't the biggest component, but there were 32 million of them: OBJS ACTIVE USE OBJ SIZE SL

From TFA: “it seems that dentry caches consume around 2GB memory under one memory cgroup”. My issue happened after stress-testing Kubernetes by repeatedly starting and stopping many containers. So over time there could be tens of millions o

I tried to debug a very similar-sounding issue a couple of years back. Many GB used in dentrys, not shrinking when asked, no obvious cause. Sadly I have no kernel hacking skills, don’t even know what a dentry is. Kudos to the author.

Sorry about that; I guess I misremembered? This file says it does, though only for network events: https://documentation.help/Process-Monitor/documentation.pdf

Original ProcMon used ETW, Event Tracing for Windows; the analogous technology (although very different in style) on Linux is eBPF so that’s what this tool uses.

What about just paying for a commercial licence to use it to meet your needs?

Would you consider paying for a licence to use it?

Thank you for your kind words. Most of the credit for the CNI project should go to CoreOS, now Red Hat, folks.
139.
by bboreham 5y ago
Yeah, the project could have been completely different. And the CNI marketing department sucks :-) Like most things in Open Source, it’s a product of whoever showed up to do some work.

Most of what you describe there is Kubernetes. > the near-oneness of kubernetes and CNI This is not something that can be blamed on CNI. We keep strictly even-handed.

The CNI project manages the spec, a Go library to help parse the json, and some basic plugins that set up a loopback device, bridge, etc. Intentionally, people can use the spec to write whatever they want. Istio is a vastly bigger tool that

If there is a running process using that device before/after hibernate, it needs to know it should re-configure it. There is currently no way to pass this information to a Linux process, and quite a task to add the feature to all exist

[a CNI maintainer writes] I have to say I’m a bit puzzled at the phrase “fighting CNI complexity”. CNI says you exec a process to connect your network and give it json on stdin, encoding what you want it to do. I get that a function call t

Maybe. How would you feel if an investigation stalled when a bank said “we have no idea who these people are, or where the money went”?
145.
by bboreham 6y ago
Money-laundering rules make it illegal for banks not to know who the customer is. Also various anti-bribery and sanctions rules.

Now I like hypolatent and throughputful.

I was thinking “lower latency”. Is there a suffix that means “less of”? “Timeless” is already taken...
148.
by bboreham 6y ago
So, we need words that say on what dimension it is performing better. I hereby coin “latencyant” and “throughputant”.

Mongo bought WiredTiger. Both founded by Keith Bostic, from Berkeley DB heritage.

When I first heard about Active Directory (1998?) I thought it would work a bit like this - a distributed Registry.
