ah, this is great news. Thank you. I have been monitoring this since October last year. Since now freeBSD has it, other BSDs should soon pick that up. I noticed that freeBSD is bit like a 'mothership' as far as package ports go,

90% of commercial programming, is really invoking somebody else's APIs. In my experience, most problems and frustration comes from working the APIs (or somebody else's interpretation of the business need) -- not programming langua

https://openbsd.amsterdam/setup.html this was posted here. I was intrigued but have not tried it (because my software relies on java 11, which is not on OpenBSD)

Depends on the software requirements you have, and perhaps on the network throughput you need. For example java 11 is not, yet, a native option in any of the BSDs (OpenBSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD, DF Bsd).

I wonder if Facebook's opensourcing of BPF [1] 4 months ago had negative affects on F5's competitive advantaages. BPF allows to run user code in kernel modules, so things like packet rewriting and traffic shaping are possible. [2]

Yes, that's exactly how the author of the article is explaining it (including the picture). I was just commenting that it was good that, the author took time to explain this. And those kinds of nuances/counter examples are not alw

I am from Gomel. I was there when that happened. About 70% of the fallout landed were we were (the winds were blowing north that time, so Ukraine's side was bit more spared). Most of the time, I do not want to talk about it, though. Fe

Yes, very much so. Having a C++, GO, Java, RUST, Python and F# IDEs running on Risc-V. Allowing to debug, experiment, without relying on centralized hosting providers -- would be a huge boon to Risc-V. Early adaptors will be developers, tha

Drones with infra-red are already used for using infra-red identification (not bombing the animal, that would be horrible). But perhaps more tech could help too. I think the problem too, is incentives. Everglades is a dangerous place... But

JWT refresh tokens are equivalent to passwords. (they are active for days at a time). I do not know of many web apps that store passwords in browser storage. Unlike passwords, JWT refresh tokens are created programmatically (not entered by

I doubt that purpose build data structures optimizing L1/L2 cache, will be slower (or even similar to ) a database running on the same machine. Assuming, of course, that all that's needed can be fit into memory. Databases will d
