For getting started with eBPF performance mindset, I normally recommend Brendan Gregg's book just to see what's possible:

- https://www.brendangregg.com/bpf-performance-tools-book.html

And as a related activity, you could just install the bcc-tools package (on RHEL clones) and check out the /usr/share/bcc/tools directory to see what's already implemented (on latest Ubuntu, these tools seem to be installed in /usr/sbin, etc, but you could "find /usr -name
*bpfcc" to get a list of eBPF tools already installed there (and test/man some more interesting ones).

For the bigger picture and other eBPF uses like networking, I'd get Liz Rice's eBPF book (free download):

- https://isovalent.com/books/learning-ebpf/

But the most valuable resource for me when I took the leap from writing bpftrace one-liners to more sophisticated modern eBPF programs was (and still is) Andrii Nakryiko's blog with examples of modern BPF programming:

Nobody cares about democracy though. People want jobs, supermarkets, houses and cars.

The Americans actually understood this which is why they focused on the economy when they helped Japan and Europe to rebuild after the war.
Of course they want NATO, but Russia doesn't want it, and considers it a threat.

I think the cold war never ended. And it's not just the Russians that are active in it.
Take my word for it, Datura and Dramamine aren't worth fucking with. If you are determined not to take my word for it, Dramamine is pretty similar and a lot safer.

Take too much Datura and you're dead. How much is too much? It's very difficult to know, because it varies plant to plant. I'm sure you can die from taking too much Dramamine, but at least you can accurately gauge the dose.

Nothing I ever experienced on these drugs was interesting or enlightening. Some of it was horrifying. Typically I ended up curled up in a ball waiting for the madness to end (which took hours). 0/10 would not try again. Reliable source of bad trips.

Right, but a SIMD single precision mul is linear (or even sub linear) relative to it's scalar cousin. So a 16x32, 512-bit MUL won't be even 16x the cost of a scalar mul, the decoder has to do only the same amount of work for example.

Germany spent a lot on renewables but next to nothing on actual grid infrastructure and storage. Energy prices depend on the most expensive option in the mix at any given time. In Germany that means energy prices are dictated by the gas price. No amount of renewables helps with that unless you can eliminate gas entirely.
> that has brought relative freedom and prosperity to most of the world for the last three and a half decades.

What an incredible take.

I cannot possibly think of a US intervention that went well for the receiving end.
Finland and Sweden in NATO is a huge setback, but they'll probably get Crimea, Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhia, plus a guarantee against Ukraine joining NATO. This is not a great outcome for Russia, but it's certainly better than a NATO Ukraine and a second Euromaidan in Red Square next year, which was probably the alternative on offer.

Also, it seems likely that Russia will get the dismantlement of NATO as part of the outcome of the war, and that would be a great outcome for them. Will Sweden and Finland remain in a mutual defense pact with France, Germany, and the UK after NATO ends? It's up in the air. But in any case invading Russia from Sweden is vastly less feasible than invading Russia from Ukraine.
If X is encroaching on Y and you're all the way over in Z, you're not defending yourself; you're deliberately getting getting involved in someone else's problem. Maybe the numbers are in your favor, or it's "the right thing to do," but Europeans have been using similar rationale to destroy their continent over and over again for centuries. I'm not judging at this point—it's probably just in your blood. The rest of the world just wants you to pay for it from here on out.

I will fully agree on OS/400, of the operating systems
and platforms I have worked with, it is by far the
most stable.

That is easier to achieve when your operating system
only runs on your own proprietary hardware.

It worked well for years without any sysadmin touching it.

Well my mom was trained to be the "sys admin", which

Yes but Russians are attacking which makes them more vulnerable, i.e. their armored vehicles. Also, sanctions prevent Russians from using high tech components. Drones are a panacea but a great tool in defence.
And it's not like B2B doesn't get whacked by bad software or bad actors regulalry. The idea that software updates itself is vastly more benefitial than harmful in the very long term. There so many old machines running outdated software in gated corporate networks, they will get owned immediately once a single one of them is compromised in any way. They are literally trading minor inconveniences for a massive time-bomb with a random timer.
In my experience, blame for this basically never lies on grunt-level devs; it's EMs and CTOs/CIOs who insist on using third-party products for everything out of some misguided belief that it will save dev time and it's foolish to reinvent the wheel. (Of course, often figuring out how to integrate a third-party wheel, and maintain the integration, is predictably far more work for a worse result than making your own wheel in the first place, but I have often found it difficult to convince managers of this. In fairness, occasionally they're right and I'm wrong!)

That figures. It was fun though to pretend it would scale across processors. Were you tempted to fork the typescript compiler in this project to add some optimizations or something crazier like gpu acceleration for rendering or parallel workloads?

Reminds me of the guy on Youtube obsessed with optimizing Mario64 code, he found really interesting things like how removing optimizations made the game faster - presumably because the very basic tooling the original developers had made it hard to measure things across the board, and also not making the most of the powerful hardware architecture.
Free trade as implemented in the past seems to have been the opposite of democratic cooperation. Non-elected appointees making free trade agreements behind locked doors, which effect ignore the citizens interest and makes industry regulation irrelevant. It was free trade that enshrined current copyright laws world wide with 90 years after the authors death, which few people in the world voted for.

Free trade only reflect cooperation if done transparently, chosen by the people, and which does not bypass industry regulation that people voted on. If that is not possible then the trade agreement need to reflect the different national views on things like minimum wage, environmental issues, safety standard, animal well fare, justice system, trade marks, and so on.
> As icing on the cake, to report this bug to Google, I apparently need to pay $29 plus a 3% surcharge on my GCS usage. Thanks.

That's the price of a support contract, not a "bug report". And it's not "plus", it's "or": support costs $29/month or 3% of your monthly billing, whichever is greater. It comes with SLA agreements for fixing or working around your reported problems. Though obviously in this case they'll probably just tell you to use their own python library and not boto.

Cliché at this point, but worth remembering the Democrats are not a leftist party by any means.

Until America sheds the anti-communist gene and produces an actual, bold left-wing movement rooted in Socialist thought, all you'll have is chauvinism wrapped in politeness optics.
So you're saying they have ever increasing influence and are keeping the rest of society in debt to them.
I wonder if they programmed that into them through RLHF, as a way of trying to teach the model that a preceding comment should be completed by whatever code is described by the comment

I worked at Skype from eBay to Microsoft. The clients were rewritten, sometimes from scratch, sometimes redesigned to chase after the latest UI trend. But rewriting clients didn't address the fact that the OG widely successful Skype was fundamentally peer-to-peer. There were no servers, only supernodes.

After smartphones took off, management was reluctant to ditch P2P and move to a client-server model, for both business (running servers costs money, and remember Skype mostly made money on calling PSTN) and technical reasons (P2P was at the heart of Skype). Internally, engineers had Skype working "in the cloud", but it took years of waffling (middle management was distracted by the introduction of Scrum; don't get me started about that; upper management was distracted by the company getting bought and sold twice) before slowly turning around the big ship.

By then, the A/V part of the tech had become commoditized, and plenty of free alternatives (namely FaceTime, WhatsApp, Messenger, Snapchat) had appeared on the scene, with better business models. No amount of rewriting code and building from scratch addressed that latter part. Management was very interested in finding new ways of making money, but it was also (for better or worse) very reluctant and careful in introducing ads into the UI.
I agree with this - you need to change a few settings unless you're an absolute purist - but once you have done that, it's basically a nicer, well-maintained professional Firefox fork

> Restructuring the elections, congressional seat allocation, etc. would require Constitutional amendments. Unlikely to happen.

As a Brazilian, I think it's unfortunately more likely than you think. Here in Brazil, we got a completely rewritten constitution (the 1988 constitution) after our USA-backed military dictatorship ended. So if the current USA government becomes a dictatorship (which unfortunately does not seem unlikely enough right now), there's a good chance the USA will also get a brand new constitution after all that mess ends, hopefully one with better electoral mechanics.

Because it is a pending note. Which often already are extremely relevant. Many see these as prominently as other CN's as becoming a "Community Noter" is not too hard.

>And it’s not like Community Notes will remain reliable.

That's as useless like saying your house might burn down in the next hour so might as well not go inside during a storm. CN's are the best weapon we have against misinformation given they require consensus from people that have disagreed in the past. Track record of CN's is unbeatable. They sure as hell are better than the abuse of flagging my factual parent comment on HN. Shame on whoever did that, but a honor system clearly isn't enough, sadly not even on HN.
How do you conclude that my view of the world comes from YouTube videos? If I am interested in a topic, I actually read the primary sources, and on the war in Ukraine I have done a fair bit of that in the beginning. In that respect I am easily better informed than 99 % of people that just consume the news in one way or another.

And there are essentially two points of view, either Russia has expansionist ambitions or Russia has legitimate security concerns not taken serious by the West. It is trivial to find someone that argues either position. And nuance does not matter here because we disagree on the absolute fundamentals, so it does not even matter whether I agree with every last word as long as I agree with the main points.

And am I neither Russian nor American nor do I feel close ties to any side, so I will happily change my position if someone provides the necessary evidence. But so far nobody has done so.
I just calculated it for 100 ml of methanol. 4.4 kWh/l / 10 * 0.15 = 66 Wh. Enough to charge a laptop once. Yeah, I expected more from chemical fuel somehow. Gasoline and diesel have twice the energy density, but do you really want to carry that smelly, messy stuff with you?
>Tests not failing when your code does implies that you are missing test cases. In other words things are underspecified.

I am really confused. Have you guys never written any multithreaded code? You can write the most disgusting thread-unsafe code without a single lock and be perfectly green on all your tests. And who in the world can write tests to simulate all possible timing scenarios to test for race conditions?

I give multithreading as just the most egregiously obvious example that this "tests can prove correctness" idea is fundamentally broken, but I think it applies more generally.

>Haskell is the extreme example of this. If it successfully compiles then it most likely does exactly what you intended but it might be difficult to get it to compile in the first place.

Absolutely 100% of the safety of haskell comes from the mental model (functional programming, immutable data structures etc) and none from the test cases (although their community appears to even do testing slightly better than others).
And just generally, every time someone told me Trump wasn’t going to last the first term or run again I tried to bet them. A few took me up.

It’s a strange fantasy that guy you don’t like will just go away. How many presidents or VPs don’t last a full term? Anyone who thinks that has let their emotions divorce their logic from reality, and is thus a good person to wager against
And what about the longer term? No one wants to commit to this fight, how much worse is it next time? What lesson does Putin learn when he can take Ukraine? Because even if he only takes part of it on paper, he’ll end up with the whole lot. That’s what the mineral “deal” with the US really is - it’s a bribe: “when we’re in control, you’ll still get the minerals”.

How stable will the world be when Russia wins, Putin is able to rebuild, and then they want somewhere else?

You tell me, which fight is more winnable? This one or the next one?
They have been doing for at least a decade by now (e.g Amazon). So why imply it suddenly isn’t acceptable to show ads (in any form)?
More or less trained LLMs are obfuscating "stolen" training data. The status quo used to call this sort of thing theft and piracy
the problem is that simply asking the question plays into the hands of Putin.

In war, the objective is to get the other party to stop fighting. Either by destroying his means, or by destroying his will. If you can get enough people to believe that a war cannot be won, or that it is not just, then they will stop. And you have won. See Psychological warfare [1]

This is why Putin is menacing with nuclear weapons, even if he knows that he cannot use them. This is why Putin is making statements about Ukraine being a fascist nazi state, that he just had to invade for the good of the planet. This is why reliable / true statistics about macro-economics and battlefield victims have become state secrets.

Every time someone naively, but sincerely, enters in the reasoning of Putin, the public debate is shifted a little bit to his advantage. This is what is referred to as a Useful Idiot [2]. And due to Brandolini's Law, otherwise known as the Bullshit Asymmetry Principle [3] it takes time for people to be educated.

So people get frustrated with having to explain every time. So they just downvoted you. I guess.

In other words, a fork?

Or how does the semantics of patch/changes/update differ in any way from maintaining a fork? The packaging has nothing to do with this. It may not be a well-maintained fork, the maintainers might not see themselves capable of adding features and bugfixes on their own, but a fork is a fork.
And if everyone switches to Librewolf, Librewolf will die because Mozilla will no longer make money and won't be able to devote resources towards maintaining upstream Firefox.

I use Firefox. I hate ads. I don't love that Mozilla engages in some level of affiliate deals to pay the bills, but it's the only viable alternative to Google controlling the entire web and doing much worse tracking/advertising at this point, unless Mozilla can figure out some other revenue stream.

Chromium-based "privacy-focused" browsers can only exist as long as they're not popular enough to move the needle on Google's ad business. Firefox derivatives can only exist as long as Mozilla can pay the bills, which they almost certainly can't do if nobody uses Firefox (no reason for Google to pay for search priority for an audience of zero, and no affiliate deals for an audience of zero).

The more people use Firefox forks, the sooner Google controls everything. You might personally benefit in the short term, with "complete" privacy, so I can understand why some might choose that option, but you need to accept that you're contributing to Google's dominance by doing so.
> Nobody gave the slightest fuck about Russia.

It really is tiring listening to the Russian apologetics coming from other posters in this thread.

"Russia felt threatened"

No. Nobody wants to invade Russia.

The deal since the end of the cold war has been this: Russia can do whatever the hell it likes inside its own borders. Its oligarchs with Putin at the front can rob and pillage the country to their hearts content. Putin can use his loyal FSB to suppress the opposition, rig elections, and dominate the domestic media and brainwash his population to believe whatever he want them to believe. The rest of the world will do no more about this than hand out tiny wrist slaps, while holding their noses and trading with Russia. They kept their seat in the UN security council. They were invited into G7. They were treated as an equal to larger, richer, liberal, democracies.

The only reason there is war in Ukraine is because this incredibly generous deal was not enough for Putin and his ilk, they wanted more. More influence, more power, more vassals. They want to restore the mythical glory of the Russian empire, or the Soviet empire, or both. They want all the territories that Russia has ever held dominion over. Getting control over Ukraine would have given that dream a big territory, population, and economical boost.

You don't get to pick and choose between benefits and costs. Like, over the long term you can, but blowing up your alliances at a press conference is not a strategy for long term geopolitical success.

Great TV, though.
But that ignores the reality. Chrome is implementing new (often privacy harmful) features and because the Chrome market share is high enough websites depend on them. Then the average user has to pick Chrome because "Firefox is broken".

The network effects between website and viewers make the market real and failing to gain a significant market share results in you effectively being cut out and failing to serve the needs of most of your users (unless you can match Chrome's insane pace of development bug-for-bug).

> you can expect conflict.

Ok, so who started the war?
Yeah but we could have prevented it, so that means we wanted to so badly expand NATO that we would go into war with Russia for it? Why can't we stay put and maybe try to talk more? And now that we have an opportunity to talk or make a deal, and we blow it off as being in bed with Putin?
Are you sure that was Gorbachev and not Yeltsin? There's even a famous photo of the latter at an American store.
From what I've seen, when people pick Azure, it's always about money.

Whereas with other providers, it can also be about money (because they offer a big discount or because the migrating partner is cheaper), but it can also be about wanting one service/feature that only X is providing; and once you're in, people tend to prefer to put everything there, instead of doing poly-cloud.

In my region, Azure salesmen are very active, providing huge discounts, so Azure is the most popular amongst big companies.
Meanwhile smaller ones will go on AWS because its easier to find information and (actual) knowledgeable people.

I used to work in a company using AWS : everything was managed through Terraform and we were as cloud agnostic as possible (mostly containers).
Then we were acquired by a bigger company with a Azure deal, so they told us to migrate from AWS to Azure.
They provided us with their own experts to help us, but six months in, we were still unable to have anything remotely viable for UAT.
The experts were starting to acknowledge that even with they years of experience, they still weren't convinced with this whole Azure stuff so they actually relied heavily on a legacy on-prem DC.
That's when I left.
Last time I heard about old coworkers, the product was still running perfectly fine on AWS, while there was still a team working on the migration.
It's been more than two years now.

And I had other bad experiences with Azure.
I know that cloud providers are not fun if you don't start with two weeks of training, so I try to stay open-minded, but no matter how many Azure experts I talked to, I never found one who was actually confident in using it.
