A file system is an emotional investment of a decade+ so I can understand Kent's desire to defend it the way he does. That said the kernel is the bigger picture, if he wants it to be successful and remain in mainline he needs to adapt

Margin isn't everything, it's a very stable business with a very wide technological and regulatory moat. Add to that fierce brand loyalty among pilots and it's a great business IMO. Personal electronics (unless you are Apple

Use Bazel. GHA/Gitlab CI/Buildkite/whatever else floats your boat then just builds a bunch of Bazel targets, naively, in-order etc. Just lean on Bazel fine-grained caching until that isn't enough anymore and stir in remo

Netbox is crap unless you are trying to manage a small but very heterogeneous environment. For anything big, very homogeneous etc you really don't want it. It feels more like an OSS tool for managing university campus scale infra, whic

I'm not sure it's possible to solve for that with additional prowess. If you are wronged by a machine you are always going to be emotional about it, i.e having your email account unceremoniously terminated by Google without recour

Why? We aren't looking at introducing autonomous ambulances any time soon. They should be compared to taxi/Uber/Lyft drivers that is what is being replaced by this and as such where the net harm increase or reduction will occ

You really don't need all 10 people on-call to know k8s to that level. They just need to know enough as to when to wake someone else up. Everywhere I have worked where we have run clusters in the 100s to 1000s of nodes we have rarely h

If you prefer no bullshit communications they are great. They are to the point, terse and very German. I find this both refreshing and exactly what I want/need out of support. The few times I have needed to contact them it's been

In my experience noone bothers unless they are using GPUs or they are already at 100k/mo. I do think 100k/mo is the tipping point actually, that is $1.2M/yr. It costs around $400k/yr in engineering salaries to reasonably

In this benchmark actually no, Go doesn't fare well. There is actually higher static overhead per goroutine than JVM VirtualThread. I presume this is because of a larger initial stack size though/ This probably doesn't matter

Well they are all concurrent. I think what you mean is Go is also parallel. As is C#, Rust and Java in this bench.

Ironically Javalin is largely written in Kotlin. Kotlin (from the perspective of this blog post) stands above both Java and Go here because it's type system is even more expressive, it has null safety and it's less verbose than bo

Too much custom stuff too quickly, there is a lot of efficiency in vertical integration and a fully cohesive stack but it takes a very long time to stabilize if you take that route. We spent months trying to convince them of problems with t

There is. In fact it's called a "land port" for a reason, the park has a huge freight yard connected to 2 rail lines it's just not shown in this picture because it's shared infrastructure of the industrial park.

You could say it's central to their culture. Sort of goes for most Asian cultures, the education of children is something Asian parents will sacrifice greatly for.

k8s is the API. Forget the implementation, it's really not that important. Folks that get tied up in the "complexity" argument are forever missing the point.

Televisions have been fairly egregious in recent decades. Curved and 3D the primary suspects. Unfortunately "smart" turned out to be a way to make money despite the protests of the consumers so that isn't likely to be phased

Exactly. The artists are not the church. I'm not religious at all, however I was deeply moved by many basilica throughout Italy and Spain, as I was by the Pantheon, the aqueducts at Segovia, etc. It's hard to look upon such feats

Seeing a digital version of it in such detail only further reinforces how important it is to experience it in person. Few sights of man-made things have instilled as much awe in me as La Basilica Di San Pietro and most of them are also in R

Plus in a modern DC you can trivially convert it to be essentially lossless with DCSP/PFC and ECN which both work perfectly with any UDP based protocol (and is why NVMeOF, FCoE and RoCEv2 all woke so well today). ECN isn't a neces

By OFED I assume you are meaning RDMA and yes, it's used extensively. Not just in HPC but anywhere you are doing high performance collective communication. Frameworks like MPI, UPC/UPC++, NCCL, UCX etc are all underpinned by RDMA.
