Is this the same as grpc.SharedBufferPool? The gRPC implementation does a lot of memory allocation.

I just bought an Asus Chromebook and it has Debian linux kind of built in. I can apt-get install GUI apps. The employee logs in with their company account (we are a GSuite shop). Vendor-support means there are no driver concerns. As a co

You get the equivalent setup in ipv6 by having your home modem or router deny inbound connections. I think port forwarding configuration is a pain that does not offer value over just poking a hole in your firewall to do an authenticated con

You can also check if you have ipv6. I have tried both, but prefer directly connecting home.

I wish coffee shops would start letting wi-fi users have ipv6 addresses. What is holding up the captive portal vendors from allowing ipv6?

What is wrong with protobufs and grpc?

Think of time as defined by how many times a photon bounces between two mirrors. If the two mirrors move at the speed of light with the photon, the photon will never reach the mirror to bounce. Therefore, the photon experiences no time. T

The Fed cannot fix this. It is illegal to build dense housing. Car-centric suburbia is fiscally unsustainable and people are feeling the effects via rent. See San Fran and Miami for ground zero.

For what it is worth, I totally agree. I programmed a fairly large project only to find that goroutines were mysteriously blocking in extremely hard-to-debug subtle ways. So, I had to rewrite a huge chunk. I think goroutines are like Ackb

I switched to cycling for transportation. Benefits: 1. way more access to the city 2. eliminated need to go to gym; transport time doubles as cardio time 3. freed up time to see people; 15 minutes door to door is hard to beat I really hope

Is PGP out for this use case? Doesn't the US military have DoD people plug in their ID badges to read/sign emails through outlook?

I read Romans had a height disadvantage against Germans, etc. So Roman strategy was to knock enemies down with the shield and stab up close. Like Mike Tyson vs taller heavy weight boxers. The shield mitigates the risk of close combat.

We put developer machines in Kubernetes. And devs ssh in and code remotely. The VS Code remote ssh plugin makes this really painless. And the devs get the benefit of the kubernetes dns to access our internal system they need to program a

The hold-out resident can just sell the land to a developer who will build something denser than a single family home. Then as a condition of the sale, the resident will own a unit in the new building. I see it all the time. There is some

You can theoretically run untrusted code from customers in a secure sandbox. This is a simpler proposition that letting customers run vms.

Nice. Pretty soon, we won't need CDNs for DDOS protection. We just serve API through Onion services.

Is anyone experimenting with the WASI feature?

by favflam 3y ago
Question: for sandboxing untrusted code, should I invest time in learning more linux container stuff or switch to learning WASI? I am inclined towards WASI myself.

Walter Rudin's real analysis slaughtered me in school. I can't imagine getting to measure spaces and Lebesgue integrals. Respect to people who get this.

With no street parking, ambulances pass right through. Also, you don't allow through-traffic of cars. The only vehicular traffic are taxis (supply limited with licenses), delivery vehicles, emergency vehicles, and those rare people wil

Have you considered the costs to contain and clean up Fukushima? The financial costs and loss of lands for decades is a heavy hit for a country to take. Japan passed a special tax to pay for the disaster ( https://www.reuters.com

Respectfully, suburban guys want to use urban cores rent free. If people with cars actually paid anything close to market rates for the precious real estate they take up with their cars, then most of them would just walk/bike/bus

From the "leadership election" snippet, this setup looks perilously close to the peer to peer propagation of transactions and blocks in a blockchain system such as Solana. I suppose the latency requirements are much tighter than

Public transit gets another plus. Bicycles get a double plus as you do not even tap into a system, nor have a license plate.

The next state is "It works in web assembly runtime (WASI)", no?

by favflam 3y ago
I agree. But we should be seeing a spectrum of density with the urban core having some skyscrapers and as you go out from the core, density drops exponentially like a bell curve. Vancover is a bit nuts b/c they have single family home

You can do a POST with an api access token to gitlab.com to get a job to run with custom environmental variable settings. So, you don’t have to use git to start a job.

Yes, but you need a static ip address, resilient server software components, acceptance of occasional inconvenience. IPV6 works, so long as you have a jump box to get you from a CGNAT'ed IPV4 network into the global IPV6 world. If you

I know that Firecracker does not let you bind mount volumes, but QEMU does. So, we changed to QEMU from Firecracker. If you run the workloads in Kubernetes, you just have to change a single value in a yaml file to change the runtime. I wo
