Have you managed to get good text rendering? I still can't find how to get good sub-pixel anti-aliasing working for the text sizes I want to use on my LG 42" OLED. It's otherwise awesome though, for the type of gaming I do (n

Almost all of it is better automation, shorter supply lines and abundance of highly skilled labor. Manufacturing electronics in China hasn't been about labor costs for a decade. It's still about costs overall but instead of people

Yeah that is hyperbole but NO_HZ=full and friends are extremely useful for latency sensitive workloads. i.e busy-loop polling workloads that need to rip things as fast as possible out of DMA buffers etc. However I would say the more useful

Google Domains shutdown was an own-goal. They should have just ran it at a loss forever if that is what it took, the optics were and are just awful. I get it, it was a "consumer" product essentially, hence selling the business to

I don't think the point is to enumerate every service of a given kind, merely provide at least one good example of each. Do you think they missed a category?

You can read/write to GPU buffers with gpudev in DPDK yes. It also uses some of the infrastructure that powers GPUDirect (namely the page pinning and address translation). Because you can use the addressable memory in DPDK buffer steer

GPUDirect relies on the PeerDirect extensions for RDMA and are thus an extension to the RDMA verbs, not a separate an independent thing that works without RDMA.

Personally I have seen a massive surge of interest in running on bare metal again. Largely due to AI workloads, wanting to own GPUs and run them on Infiniband or RoCE fabrics. Hopefully this trend out-lives AI hype bubble. I much prefer rea

I do but with my own PK. The problem is if the box has run untrusted code prior to that you can't trust it anymore. This is a bigger problem when you have a huge fleet of these already rather than my few servers in my home lab that I c

The problem with Supermicro isn't the short report, the problem is the secure boot keys were leaked so a huge amount of their hardware is impossible to secure because the root of trust is broken. https://arstechnica.com&#x2F

I actually think source available software is great. Not every piece of software can survive as OSS but source available eliminates most the downsides of closed-source software from a technical perspective. In my daily life I use a lot of e

Angry upvote. Maybe it's true failing though was stopping short of becoming the OS.

Different strokes for different folks. Used Go for ~5 years, would be happy to never use it again. Typescript is in a similar bucket, lots of professional usage (sadly still using it) would also be happy to never touch it again. Kotlin&#x2F

If you want to go online-presence free and still be hireable then you need to focus on having a good network of folks you would like to work with again and would in turn like to work with you.

Yes I have actually. I have used it from userspace for all sorts of things, including crazy things like reading out conntrack state to build network flow visualisation etc. I have also implemented my own kernel modules that used netlink for

Is it bad that I knew exactly what this was before I clicked on it?

There is lots of interesting kernel surface that is rarely locked down. eBPF is a (relative) the new kid on the block but there is also Netlink and the other new kid io_uring. Unfortunately security features for these transports are limited

You probably could. Easiest way would probably be to standup a GKE cluster quickly and then copy out the fluentd config.

They all sort of suck to be honest. The least suck has actually been hosted Google Cloud Logging of late, it's just "not bad enough" to get the job done. When I worked at Postmates we had a proprietary log search built on Cli
