> That's the easy thing with ZFS, just add the disks as new VDEVs What are the drawbacks of this approach and why can't I just add additional drives to an existing VDEV?

Let's say I build such a system and in 2 years from now, I want to add another 20 disks, is that possible too?

I mean practically speaking. Lets say I actually were to buy 100 x 10TB drives. I know that I can span a ceph cluster across those drives (e.g. CERN has created some 30PB cluster in the past). Can I use 100 drives in a RAID-Z? I'm aski

How about WebAssembly? Whats your size limit for that?

Why don't you span a ceph cluster across your servers and combine all these 8 TB drives into one big pool. Then you could sell it as cloud storage with freely configurable storage sizes.

Sure, but I would also like to consider the prep time + starting and landing. So lets assume, you call an helicopter pilot and a lambo driver at night up out of their bed, both lets say 20 km far away, in the middle of the night. For this d

Congratulations that's a great achievement. I think that almost everyone should be able to achieve a solid 2000 elo rating, with enough dedication over the years. Doing tactics puzzles is one of the most important factors for fast impr

I wonder what would be the maximum distance where a Lamborghini is actually faster than a helicopter (assuming there's almost no traffic e.g. at night).

No, because you'd rely on the fact that the time critical execution paths in your python application happens to be in C. This is clearly not true in general and therefore pydis just demonstrates a special case.

But therefore you need perl, gnuplot and feedgnuplot, the latter isn't even available via package manager on my distro.

For files that big I often find myself switch back to vi. However, vi also has its limits. If the files are really huge, then grep, head, tail and awk are my best friends.

One important example is eBPF. I think we will see many interesting turning incomplete eBPF kernel space programs in the future.

Maybe rust in hindsight was the first language to introduce the borrow checker as an real alternative to either manual memory management or garbage collection. Maybe we will see a kick-off language based on rust that is much simpler, includ

Basically everything related to cloud computing is written in Go nowadays. As long as there is kubernetes, containers and cloud there will be Go. I would say Go is at least here to stay for the next decade or two. For rust I would like to s
