At least on my completely unoptimized desktop, majority of boot time is already spent in UEFI firmware, not in kernel or userspace startup. So realistically there is limited opportunity to optimize the boot times.

It's curious that despite trains and rail networks being a perennial nerdy favorite, the simulation game selection feels somewhat limited. For example is there any that simulate real-world signaling systems, such as ETCS or it's n

I wonder if anyone has implemented kernel module or smth to limit filenames to sane set. Just ensuring that they are valid utf8 and do not contain any non-printables would be huge improvement. Sure some niche applications might break so its

This whole article and discussion reminds me of the key idea that physics is a model and map is not the territory. Reality is just its own thing, to me it seems pointless to debate if something is really wave or particle or quubaz, the ques

Considering that Rust is the most hyped language (and e.g. topping SO surveys) out there, and I definitely would not call many things in Rust simple, I wouldn't be worried about simplicity being overly dominant

Neat project, but hate the branding. Android is Linux. I think it's really important to recognize that. Linux is not just not the one traditional POSIX style system, it's a platform to build all sorts of systems, including Andro

Isn't this just same as sssd? You got daemon with various backends, and then nss wrapper lib to query that daemon.
