The PRU in some TI chips like that in the Beaglebone give you that kind of thing. A couple of deterministic 200mhz arm cores that run separately from the main cpu. They've been used for lots of motor control projects and also bit-bangi

There's a lot in there. Cluster file distribution with bittorrent https://github.com/vespa-engine/vespa/tree/master/filedistri...

Going by other Dyson products it'll be damn loud. But I guess it's not so far outside of their expertise, aerodynamics being important for battery range.

Something like Keychain support seems high-risk to leave to third party addons? In the back of my mind I wonder if they'll also follow the Chrome model of malware takeovers.

I thought they kept doing security updates for 32 bit macs for a little while?

Hm. I what the distribution of latency vs bandwidth is like, whether 14kB or 2 round trips takes longer for most people?

Nice work. I guess it'd just as quick if it sent up to ~4kB - that's the normal TCP initial window? https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3390

New blockchains have lower barriers to entry I suppose?

And doesn't load at all with cookies off too (javascript on). Looks handy though.

Interesting to see it's GPL, unlike most other Facebook and Rust code (BSD or Apache). Is Mononoke meant to be reminiscent of Monotone?

10x sounds kind of reasonable, it's harder to make things than break things.

The kext shouldn't be necessary for a Safari and Firefox plugin. Is it just there to fake a u2f usb device for Chrome?

Keep reading - AWS latency was too high so the benchmark was run on some bare Dell hardware.

A bit off topic, but do the people using deep learning GPUs use the same device for desktop graphics? There aren't problems with display lockups etc?

Maybe you could even make them run out-of-the-box like a static binary, using binfmt-misc https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/admin-guide/binfmt-...

A double-free can traditionally allow remote code execution. Maybe modern libc mitigations will protect you, maybe not.

Seems they might share fibre susceptible to excavators, etc. I guess they've probably thought of that ;)

Huh, so the "3 availability zones" are 3 datacentres on a 1km stretch of road? https://goo.gl/maps/CSpsvPWsxNE2

Anyone able to say (or guess!) where the datacentres are?

https://pastebin.com/jrcJbjU4 I've realised straight tee() is actually wrong - it works fine for piping to something but "zcyes > /dev/null" won't work, it needs vmsplice() like mrb said.
