Physics, Engineering, Math, Science, CS were obviously prized backgrounds. Over the last 10 years, I think JPL is diversifying but I couldn’t be sure. When I joined as an intern in 2002 out of college, there was a huge push for youth. It

Professional rivalries. But IMO, NASA engineers are some of the best and many approach the “scary smart” or renaissance levels of breath & depth of intelligence. Also, on the whole, at least at JPL, our engineers were some of the most

I last worked at JPL 10 years ago but all mission systems lived on many distinct networks of “dark cable and fiber”. Physical access to mission networks was usually heavily guarded. It would take accessing several doors to just be in a ro

We “JPLers” call it “JPL” or “The Lab”.

This kind of thing happens often in places where you need a US Clearance to be employed, and, you get judged at all ends of the spectrum. Too new, too old, too different. It made a bit of stink when I showed up to the work site in an avoc

I completely concur. We used Rocket.Chat (running containerized on OpenShift, our Kubernetes distro) for a time at Red Hat to support the bulk of Red Hat Consulting. Many thousands of messages per minute sustained throughput. All of Red

I like to use a `showconfig` rule so that `make showconfig` will display all public vars and give their default values. It ends up being a little like `./configure --help`. But I see now that I could tighten that up a bit with the abo

Oh there’s also an OpenShift user’s mailing list where people get fairly direct access to knowledgeable Red Hatters and even the devs.

If cost is initially a big issue, checkout the upstream to OpenShift, OKD [0]. Mind you, a Kubernetes distribution for production-ready workload will take some work. This why OpenShift is one of the few Kubernetes distributions to suppor

Interesting that `-Ofast` & `-O3` were chosen to bench and not `-Osize`. In some real-world cases, `-Osize` can beat `-O3` because it will impact caches less with the smaller code size. This has interesting affects also when the workl
