Eastern Europe here, local full time offers are down, US remote freelance offers are up. Not sure what to make of it yet.

I don't know, I haven't had a fight with the compiler in a long while now. On the other hand a $42 dedicated box benchmarked my project's REST API at 270,000req/s. I don't even use a DB, just structs serialized in J

Great job AMD, now do RISC V so Apple's M1 can get some competition.

Sniped a deal at the server auction, it's closer to $43 at today's exchange rate.

Not sure about $4 but for $40 I get a dedicated box with Intel i7-8700, 128GB RAM, 1TB of NVME storage and 1Gbe of bandwidth at Hetzner. That is a lot of machine for the money.

On the other hand the RISC V ones are good for decades to come.

My Windows 10 LTSB is going strong, no ads either. Plenty of time left on the security patches too.

UFS with journaling makes fsck almost instant. They must be using barebones UFS.

To this day I admire Linux for having the grit and perseverance of maintaining ext2, ext3 and ext4 as separate code bases for so long. Equivalent FreeBSD UFS, UFS with soft updates and UFS with journaling is one code base with each generati

Salesforce is an Oracle/Java webapp from 1999 + a whole bunch of poorly integrated acquisitions. It's a miracle it works at all.

How about their future prospects? From the 4 implementations I've seen all are desperately trying to leave the platform. One succeeded so far. Is the enterprise Salesforce craze over?

I would imagine load-store to be simpler to implement in hardware.

A question to the Rust experts, would lifetime annotations 'a in Rust have similar benefit as "in" or "in out" or "out" in Ada and other languages? With the additional benefit in Rust where the compiler ca

$900 on sale for m1 laptop. $600 for used. This is less than a day's labor for this crowd.

Well, get an older one that does not use the chips in the toners. The new ones are iffy.

> The ping process runs in a capability mode sandbox on all affected versions of FreeBSD and is thus very constrained in how it can interact with the rest of the system at the point where the bug can occur.

Already OVH customer, I just need a less flammable failover.

Since we have Hetzner employees reading this, please bring back FreeBSD image support. Operating system diversity is good for Internet's resilience.

Backend connections are not keepalive with that nginx config and benchmark is ran on a shared digital ocean VM. I suspect the author is inexperienced with proxies, operating systems and benchmarks.

I'm writing a toy image sharing webapp with Axum, $40/m server is able to process 200,000 dynamic requests per second. A bit more than nginx and a bit less than varnish serving static files on the same hardware. This whole Rust th

This is a lie. The bad code was never "deployed in production", it was pulled before a release. FreeBSD users were never exposed to it. HEAD code branch is where reviews happen in BSDs, this code failed that review and was removed

Yeah I bought a used Lenovo M720q NUC style 6 core i5-8400T 16Gb Ram 512Gb NVMe machine for less than a new Pi 4 8Gb. With a windows 10 pro license. Makes one hell of a home server.

I've had to deal with forks and threads, epoll and inotify. It was beyond my skills at the time.

From what I can recall, the performance issues were on the network side. I suspected accept() calls not scaling right, but instrumentation on Linux was quite poor at that time. They had nothing like dtrace back then so I can't be certa

I don't know man, I've given up and handed it over to someone more senior. Their port was half the performance and the project was killed. We kept on using FreeBSD for the product.
