So, dumb question. One of the biggest impingements upon grey businesses (prostitution, pornography, imitation goods, gambling, social media profiles) is payment processing. Now, VISA, AMEX, etc.. will never want to process these payments. I

Cool! Just curious, what's the use case? Are you trying to integrate Haskell and Elixir / Erlang? From my understanding GHC produces faster code than the speed at which BEAM can interpret code.

I think the cgroup BPF filters align more with what Little Snitch can do as opposed to the TCP tracepoints. In modern versions of systemd, you can restrict a given network application to only having access to specific IPs via this mechanism

I think the formula is simple — if the amount of idle developer time waiting for development gear + the cost of development gear + the cost of porting your software to POWER > the potential cost saving of POWER, don’t touch it. If POWER

If Google does a better job of defining who should be killed, and it siphons money into the Bay Area, why shouldn’t we be supportive of google’s involvement? I agree that perhaps we shouldn’t blow people up overseas, but at least while we a

You work at Netronome? I’m curious if we will ever see your chips in traditional data planes like switches.

Mmap’d IO is still a shit show because of clearing the CR3 register on page faults.

Yeah, as far as I can tell, on a lot of these products volume discounts can easily be in the 95%+ range.

Eh, if you use lxcfs with LXD, LXC, or docker, you can fake uptime.

Have you tried to debug the same two problems when you do not have access to the infrastructure, versus when you do have infrastructure access? It's a radically different experience. In addition, even if no one needs access, a bad acto

Eh, I think the only thing that works is you kill your velocity and institute a bunch of processes, and bureaucracy or put up light gates and hire people that you trust to do the right thing. It sounds like they have some gating, but perhap

How is the podcast functionality? My biggest frustration with smart speakers is the poor support for pausing and resuming podcasts.

I wish it was easier to get your hands on refined isotopes. I believe it'd spawn quite a bit of interesting industrial research that's being held back right now. A lot of this waste is a nuisance, but I believe if it was easier to

Mill feels like the GNU Hurd of CPUs.

Is Mill ever going to come out with real hardware that "normal" people can use? Or is it just an R&D project, and focused on selling the IP?

Does TrustZone mitigate this? Can the secure world be compromised via this side channel?

There is Buildkite, which a hybrid server side / client side solution. This has worked extraordinarily because one of the most frustrating parts of setting up a CI service is setting up a long-lived, reliable server.

Often times devices of secure randomness run the bell test to ensure that they aren’t being tampered with. I believe that blasting the counter with a gamma ray beam would indicate this.

Because installing a tracker on someone’s car will end with lots of privacy issues? You need a tracker to properly attribute taxes to the person that owns the road, and even though you don’t need super accurate trackers, any tracking can be

Erlang is pretty poor when it comes to P50 latency compared to C++ and Java. Part of this is due to BEAM being a pretty unsophisticated VM, and part of this is due to the language and VM promoting inefficient patterns, (FP, immutability—the

Independently from this, IPv6 doesn't really work in AWS VPC. For example, ELB / ALB breaks under IPv6 endpoints. A lot of VPC services aren't available on IPv6. Metadata service has no IPv6 equivalent. I'm sure someone

Err, I think the question is a little bit more complicated than that. You can run various "Soft IP" cores on FPGAs, and then run Linux, or whatever you want on that. I believe right now, OpenRISC, and RISC-V cores are some of the

How would you implement types? receive / send make dealing with types incredibly difficult. Also, hot code reloading makes reasoning about types difficult as well. There's been some proposals for Multi-party session types, but non

I'd argue that switching kernels is pretty easy. At least for us, there's a lot less QA to switch kernels than Docker versions. The more often you upgrade, the easier it is to upgrade, as with almost all things. We also have a tea

At Netflix, we have considerable use of the autoscaler with our custom scheduler. Is there any reason you can't autoscale based on queue depth, or time of items in queue? As far as your Docker problems go, have you tried to upgrade to
