Literally the day after I spend hours figuring out thinkfan and tinkering with fan levels to get something I can live with. What timing.

At the moment this is just a smattering of socket programming and man pages available in full elsewhere. Instructions on using the socket API is not kernel commentary. I am disappoint.

If you buy a top-model Subaru it comes with driver-facing cameras that detect drowsiness and advise you to pull over. The tech is already here and in cars.

If you're interested in more shell stuff, read the Bash Manual. It's not very long and it's quite enjoyable: https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bash.html Run all your scripts through htt

This reminds me of an anecdote about code which was always beautifully commented. The author would code while wasted and couldn't remember anything if it wasn't on the page in front of them, hence the comments.

This is how everyone outside the US thinks as well. We do the same sort of rough maths for Fahrenheit (double and add 32) and pounds (about 500g).

I'm surprised how much crossing NUMA nodes can affect performance. We've seen NICs halve their throughout with (intentionally) wrong setups. I think of NUMA nodes as multiple computers which just happen to share a common operating

I don't know about this dam, but Wivenhoe in Brisbane has various grades of flood capacity. 100% is full of drinking water. This isn't actually "full" and the dam can hold this amount of water twice again - 300% capacity

I have used vim-fugitive for years to read large and small codebases. Its blame and re-blame interface is the best I've found.

This is one of the tips given in Zed Shaw's "Learn C The Hard Way". I've also found it invaluable, and make my mentees do the same thing.

I am still amazed anyone would use a proprietary password manager which stores in someone else's computer. That's the opposite of good password management.

If your C isn't arbitrarily running Doom at unpredictable times, are you even doing it right?

This. I think wanting a "beautiful" graphical Markdown editor defeats the purpose of the format. It's supposed to be used as plain text while writing. Rendering to HTML when writing is finished is an added bonus.

This is the first thing that came to my mind as well. I've said on here before, it takes real talent to write code which is this legible while still being small and efficient.

I enjoyed reading the VFS layer down into the NFS client file ops and then the RPCs created from them. (skip the RPC state machine) An easier entry point might be the ethtool_ops in an earlier Intel network driver like e1000.

We have the same situation here in Australia, except the old e-Tax app was Windows-only and was the only reason Linux and Mac users kept a Windows XP VM around to be booted up once a year to file a tax return. Yet another basic service that

That's why your dog watches you while pooping. They're vulnerable, you're able-bodied and will spot danger first, so they take danger cues off you.

I cannot stand it when people ignore (or even worse, are hostile to) custodial staff. If anyone ever thinks taking out the trash is an unimportant job, try living without rubbish collection for a week. Suddenly it will become very important
