The dependency map of the program you're running states which one takes precedence and gets mapped (overlay-mounted, to be more precise) to /System/Index/bin. So, a dependency map that contains "Foo = 1.0" woul

What a beautiful book cover. The chapters remind me of several algorithms available on SAGA GIS to handle digital elevation models, like lake filling and finding flow direction. Kudos to the authors, this is a nice resource to learn more ab

Samsung's SmartSSD comes with a Xilinx FPGA accelerator that can be used to execute code without having to move data outside the device. And their open source SDK includes domain-specific routines including databases. See https:/

Hi! It isn't derived from any other distro; it's built from scratch using its own file system arrangement. The most recent release comes with GoboLinux' own init system, although we have been running some experiments with sys

I liked the integration with binfmt_misc! There are several different approaches to bundle data files with a single executable, as the author probably knows it. My favorite one is AppImage. Even though, I've also looked into using alte

I loved the paper! The technique its authors present is more elaborated, though: they mix different sounds extracted from nature, such as birds and wind, and allow mixing different streams to create something pleasant to a sysadmin's e

This is really cool! It just occurred to me that the same approach would work to identify non-sequential reads from applications that access data from disk/tape. Thanks a lot for sharing this project with us :-)

Excellent point regarding their Wiki. Gentoo's wiki is a great resource, too. What I like the most is that both have distro-agnostic information that apply elsewhere.

I run GoboLinux on all machines I own. The distro provides an infrastructure for experimenting with different ideas at the filesystem and package management layers, which are activities aligned with my personal interests. I've been a c

The alternative Linux distribution is back with a new major release. The project, which is known for using a completely different filesystem hierarchy, comes with its own desktop extensions and even a fancy procedurally-generated wallpaper.

I've always worked from home a few days a week and my productivity has always been above the average. Fast forward 2 years, and I am surrounded by 2 little babies and a cute toddler that likes to have her dad around. Unless I go to the

I have browsed the source code and the project's commit messages, but frankly it didn't leave a good impression on me with so much cursing and swearing in the logs. It would help to have an actual README file in place too - the on

Oh, true that! Alien has been merged into the code base for so long that we didn't really remember to announce it as being one of the new features of the new release. Thanks a lot for pointing that out. We will include a note on that o

Thanks a lot! We have been wanting to debut something like Runner for a long time, but now that we have lightweight infrastructure for containerization (such as native overlayfs in the kernel and support for private mount points) that final

Yes, and more importantly: there are still some fresh ideas coming out of it. The developers behind Gobo are operating systems and programming languages enthusiasts, so every now and then they use the distro as a platform for evaluating and
