Nix generally speaking has a global "nixpkgs" version (I'm greatly over-simplifying here ofc) in which there is a single version of each package. This is likely the source of their commit based versioning complaint/issue

Deep AI/math talent pool. Also a sizeable chunk of HW/FPGA folk too. Given the salary difference vs the bay area I'm surprised more AI focused companies haven't setup London satellite offices.

Galvanized rebar is about 20% more expensive and is actually widely used in highway construction, particularly when salt is a major concern. Epoxy coated rebar turned out to have much poorer efficacy than originally expected as you noted bu

Definitely not. Stream is an ordered log, a queue is a heap. A stream has cumulative acknowledgement, i.e I have read up to X offset on partition Y, if I restart unexpectedly please redeliver all messages since X. This means that if any mes

With Redpanda you would need to build something external. With Pulsar the protocol handlers run within the Pulsar proxy execution mode and all of your authn/authz can be done by Pulsar etc. Redpanda might be more resource efficient how

I built a high scale MQTT ingestion system by utilising the MQTT protocol handler for Apache Pulsar ( https://github.com/streamnative/mop ). I ran a forked version and contributed back some of non-proprietary bits. A lot

To add to this HyperLogLog, sketches and bloom filters are the magic that make most of modern distributed databases tick.

We don't really have sketchy diner drip coffee but we do have fancy approximations like batch brew that sort of capture the idea but taste better heh. I think -actually- serving crappy diner coffee in Melbourne might be considered a ha

Australia not growing coffee is somewhat ironic, given we worship the stuff. Melbourne in particular, it's our religion and we have temples on every corner.

The TTP was structured as the economic equivalent of the Island Chain containment. It's conception lead to Made in China 2025 which wasn't rolled back just because USA withdrew from TPP. Obama had the right idea, Trump if he under

Full reproducibility isn't easy, there is a cost to it. However the payoff is rather significant so if you can temper that cost a bit and make it less inconvenient to achieve then you have a winning solution. I have cooked this up base

In our case some machines would need to access less than 1% of the image size but being able to have an image with the entire model weights as a single artifact is an important feature in and of itself. In our specific scenario even if eSta

Not too hard. If you happen to be on CRI-O this has been implemented for a bit but if you are like us and on containerd then you need the new 2.1 beta release. That does most of the heavy lifting, implementing a CSI driver that mounted thes

by jpgvm 2y ago
That is exactly the feature we are using, right now you need to be on a beta release of containerd but before long it should be pretty widespread. In combination with lazy pull (eStargz) it's a pretty compelling implementation.

I'm looking at using OCI at $DAY_JOB for model distribution for fleets of machines also so it's good to see it's getting some traction elsewhere. OCI has some benefits over other systems, namely that tiered caching/pull-

Even if he held the glide without visibility (harder than it sounds) he would have had less than 60s before eating dirt (rate of descent was ~800ft/min).

Losing all instruments with no visibility is still ejectable even if he thought the engine was still running. He was disorientated and relying on his instruments, when flying under IFR (instrument flight rules) loss of instruments is tantam

I wish HDMI would die as a standard. The TV folk won't that happen though, controlling HDMI allows them to control the ecosystem by extension. Would be nice if the EU could step in an make DisplayPort the required connection and protoc

This is the way. My personal favourite solution is Bazel specifically because it can be so isolated from those layers. No need for Docker (or Docker in Docker as many of these solutions end up requiring) or other exotic stuff, can produce O

We recently did a pretty big rollout of Tailscale and tbh I am presently surprised with how well it works. Between subnet routing to our bare metal stuff and the Kubernetes operator, especially the ability to expose services to the Tailnet

Well current popular systems are pretty much limited to Lustre and the new kid Weka, mostly Lustre though tbh. You can try to use "standard" options like MinIO/Ceph(RADOS)/SeaweedFS but you will very quickly learn those

None of those are close to fast enough. The only competitors in the parallel FS space that are useful for this are Lustre and Weka. Otherwise if you don't need a single namespace a bunch of fat AF NFSv4 servers w/NFS over RDMA wil
