Great article from Ariadne. Just a comment: > Two other frequently cited options are to use seccomp and network namespaces for this task. Seccomp is a natural solution to consider, but again has significant overhead, since all syscalls m

It's only valid in the context of that function invocation. The docs say not to write impure functions or do anything with concurrency -- if you start two simultaneous transactions, the client isn't "smart" about it unfo

Given that most application developers started with something like a postgresql, or a MySQL that has pessimistic locking, and thus transactions rarely end in read / write conflicts (aborts), how have people (and potentially programming

Having played with the Firebase Python client, outstanding writes within a transaction are "kind of" exposed because you fetch the document, and make alterations to it before saving it (within a "transaction"). That obje

This is likely due to a kernel bug that was caused by the way cgroup slab management is handled. Upgrade to 5.10 or later, and it should be fixed. I’d be interested to see if the problem continues.

I wonder why they chose to use Kernel 3.4 on the helicopter ( https://docs.github.com/en/github/setting-up-and-managing-yo... ). I wonder if they'll ever upgrade the kernel aboard -- it seems like they can do u

Funnily enough, I seem to get 5 GHz interference from nearby buildings through glass. I’m very much looking forward to 6Ghz. I ran some 60Ghz radios for a bit, and that was great, as it was interference free, and a drywall layer would stop

I did a lot of kernel development with GCP instances. Having the serial port enabled me to use a remote debugger and made it super great.

Jet Turbines are actually surprisingly good for power plants. They run on all sorts of fuel and are very efficient. I believe GE refurbs some old airplane engines into power plants.
