The comparison isn't apples to apples though. You'd have to setup bcache or dm-cache with the NVMe drive in front of XFS to compare ZFS with L2ARC on a NVMe drive. This is stated in the article as an exotic technology, but bcache

You can find automatic tags for around 1k. I know it's not the Omega, Rolex, Patek, etc, but it is considered luxury by many.

In my opinion, the simplest (and fairest) solution would be for municipalities to lay down the fiber itself, including last mile connectivity (paid for by whoever develops the land), and the city simply Rents out the fiber to any company in

That's not how it works. If a vulnerability is found in the service, and you don't need external access, blocking it from the firewall/router essentially blocks the vulnerability. In your scenario, with a public facing servic

I'm fine with those rules. Until you can understand why the rule exists (on a technical level), can you break it. Because anyone who knows all the edge cases, filesystem issues, contention issues, deadlocking and integrity guarantees w

Upgrades between LTS versions are officially supported until the .01 of the newest LTS afaik (so you'll get the update prompt when 18.01 is released)

One thing I've learned is that the user's complaint is always valid, the user's proposals seldom are. That is to say, users know when they don't like something, but they are often wrong about why they dislike it or what

If you were ordered to pay 1 billion, you would probably hire whole attorney firms to file appeal after appeal.

If you have the seed and the algorithm for the PRNG before the random number is drawn, then anyone can calculate it and pick the number. The seed would have to be picked as the number is drawn if the system is public.

Have you tried the Windows Subsystem for Linux? I've found it to be great. Since I basically use Linux for either python development or server administration, a full linux shell is basically all I need to fulfill my linux needs.

I use digicert and I can get as many certificates as I want with my wildcard cert. In fact I run different certificates in different contexts.

That's the whole point of an HSM... A somewhat tamper resistant device that executes all encryption operations. You give it the hash and a reference to the the key, and it returns the signed data.

Reduced index size is the most important one, IMHO. Once your indices are larger than than your available memory, write and read performance plummets. This obviously only applies to fairly large tables, but in our case it will be a godsend.

Because you might need to pay someone? How do you know beforehand all the wallets you are going to transact with? (Assuming we are talking about using it as a currency anyways)

People keep saying that. I wonder if they have actually read the white paper. The lightning network will only work for exchanges who will keep channels open between them. Getting a graph of every wallet connected to every other wallet is a

This is a joint venture against Nvidia basically. ML is the next big thing, and Nvidia has smartly positioned GPUs as the best way to do ML. AMD needs to claw back marketshare from Nvidia, and partnering with Intel is a quick way to do it.

That's a horrible system for $3700 dlls. You can easily shave $1k off if you're smart about shopping for the parts. Also, assuming you're not going for OSX (apples and oranges I know), a thread ripper would be a much better c

The liquidity is increasing because of the current gold rush. People who have no business getting into this kind of investment are buying in, thus increasing liquidity. I can no longer count the amount of acquintances who have bought 5-10K

so if the jvm is installed in your system, 11M out of the 11M in the example (since it includes the cut down jvm) is irrelevant? Then all you need for the example is a 1k .class file.

You can get 40 Gbps infiniband cards for $200 now a days. The switches are a bit expensive (you can probably find them for 3-4K if you look hard enough), but that's not that expensive for a data center.

I like that design even better. It explains up front what stripe is and why you should choose it, without any fluff getting in the way.

If you pay for the service after consuming it, you are by definition using a line of credit. For cable you'd have to load a prepaid balance into your account, from which the the cable provider could debit by usage. As soon as the balan
