Thanks for the clarification and explanation. Missed the part about 1000 threads fighting over memory page files, and minimal allocation for scans.

The article would have been a bit clearer to read with something like your summary up near the front to provide at least a framework of what to look for further onward.

After re-reading, does sound like Linux 6.1 ended having a fix with this portion almost near the end:

A significant change in memory management is the introduction of Multi-Gen LRU (MGLRU), a complete redesign of the LRU-based page reclaim mechanism. It was introduced in Linux kernel 6.1 and since then more and more distributions have enabled it by default. I decided to give it a try and enabled this feature. And it turned out to be the cure for COS 109!
I can't find information on what would happen to Chromium, would google need to hand it over too? That's probably more important than the fate of Chrome.
What’s that old (and in my experience pretty accurate) adage? The last 10% of a software project takes 90% of the time?

In my experience, AI is helpful for that first 90% — when the codebase is pretty simple, and all of the weird business logic edge cases haven’t crept in. In the last 10%(as well as most “legacy” codebases), it seems to have a lot trouble understanding enough to generate helpful output at more than a basic level.

Furthermore, if you’re not deliberate with your AI usage, it really gets you into “this code is too complicated for the AI to be much help with” territory a lot faster.

I’d imagine this is part of why we’re not seeing an explosion of software productivity.

I'm late to the party and this is not my forte so I'd differ to many people, but if you patent the natural compound for a disease you can do that. In addition to that patenting it for certain formulations. A case in point is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethyl_fumarate Tecfidera (the drug name for the drug used for MS made Biogen Idec billions of dollars.

The history from wikipedia

The first medical use of fumaric acid was described in 1959 by Walter Schweckendiek, a German chemist, and was a topical formulation for psoriasis. The Swiss company Fumapharm eventually brought Fumaderm, an oral formulation of dimethyl fumarate (along with some monoesters) to market for psoriasis in Germany in 1994.

Based on the efficacy and safety of this formulation, and evidence that dimethyl fumarate was the main active component, an oral formulation of dimethyl fumarate was developed by Almirall. This oral formulation, under the brand name Skilarence, was approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in June 2017, for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in adults.

Initial clinical research on the use of dimethyl fumarate for the treatment of multiple sclerosis was conducted by Fumapharm in collaboration with Biogen Idec; Fumapharm was subsequently acquired by Biogen Idec in 2006. Aditech Pharma in Sweden had also been researching oral formulations of dimethyl fumarate for MS and in 2010, the Danish company Forward Pharma acquired Aditech's patents.
Mostly to get a few miles of steps in, honestly. Throughout high-school, undergrad and grad school I worked as a server and it's just become something that helps me stay sane (and I love the food we serve tbh).

For what it's worth, working as a server can be really helpful for loneliness though - at virtually every place I've worked, the coworkers become very close and good friends as we all commiserate together throughout the shift haha

Serving did help me a ton with getting comfortable speaking in large groups of people; was a huge benefit - being able to strike up a conversation with just about anyone, build rapport and make a connection has been infinitely helpful in my personal and professional life.

I'm sure there is a better way to frame this but when I approach a table of guests I kind of pull from a "rolodex of personalities" to instantly make them comfortable and build rapport (since it's kind of awkward on the guest side, too, if that makes sense) - it's like having hundreds of small, genuine conversations a day. Some tables can be toxic but they are quickly forgotten by another group who are incredibly fun to wait on.

Definitely recommend trying it out at a non-corporate location if you have one! I work at a Rock Bottom which is a definitely a corporate owned brand but it's a lot less suffocating than a chain like Applebees, Olive Garden or others in that vein. A local place will give you a lot of agency and autonomy on how to manage your tables - the owner at the Mexican restaurant I worked at would walk up to your table and tell them to 'get the hell out' if they were being hostile towards you

I remember years ago someone talking about the idea of "open algorithms" in the sense that for any given platform the sort algorithm itself could theoretically be made available for users to submit and share their own custom sorting implementations. A company could just release some DSL of config setup that would make it possible to tweak your own feed. Even if this was tricky, you can image users that were more technical creating algorithms that other users could apply.

I understand why this never happened (algorithms are, after all, optimized to the benefit of the company, not the user), but still it's a shame that this was never explored (at least not to my knowledge).

I agree with you almost completely. I never used YT as a content source until a few years ago - I’d never open the app and only watch videos linked or embedded / looking up a specific how to video. Now it’s different though.

I never go to my subscription feed - the front page algo keeps me up to date on any new content from people I want to see updates on. I’ve noticed too it almost has a “shadow subscription” where even though I am not subscribed to certain channels, it knows I watch every video by them so it gets on my front page too.

The front page really has a “vibe” that follows my interests around. Watch a few too many Minecraft videos or car repair and soon you start seeing more and more of the front page being those topics. Get a new interest in pyramids? Devlogs? Nature? The front page slowly decays old interests and promotes new ones.

Which is again why I don’t check my sub feed - it’s a graveyard of interests, many of which I don’t care about right now. The algo surfaces the ones I do.
Because IRL it is just as inconvenient but it doesn't actually happen. I've never been carded in my life. Even when I was in my 20s.
Bluesky is pretty much that?
Vmscan is not single-threaded. Every thread that tries to allocate more memory when current memory consumption equals memory limit triggers vmscan. So lru_lock is used only to isolate some pages to scan and later to return pages that were not reclaimed back to cgroup. The scan itself is done without lru_lock.

The first problem was that the vmscans are done under mmap_read_lock. And there is no good reason for it. It happened that vmscan is called from page fault that requires mmap_lock. At least some parts of page fault handling require mmap_lock, but definitely not reclaiming itself.

> Always bring memory usage down to at most ~95% (configurable) of the cgroup limit
I agree. It could be sometimes done in the application itself.

They have been saving up a bit last year if you see the financial reports their reserves are just above $1B now and there are others who paid in the past (like Yahoo did till 2017) who will pay Firefox a decent amount if not like Google does .

My guess it is likely be Bing or probably a new generation AI company like OpenAI who will replace Google and perhaps even pay similar or close to what Google pays. The traffic is worth a lot. Bing attested to click flow as the reason they cannot make a better product in their testimony in this trial.

Also Google will either be allowed to continue the contract till its current end (I believe 1-2 more years ) or will pay fully and release Mozilla from their obligations (Mozilla is not party to the case so early termination without compensation would be penalty on them for no reason ).

Mozilla will need to make some significant cuts and layoffs no doubt will be hard on the team, but the product will survive.
Every so often, it saves me a few hours on a task that's not very difficult, but that I just don't know how to do already. Generally something generic a lot of people have already done.

An example from today was using XAudio2 on windows to output sound, where that sound was already being fetched as interleaved data from a network source. I could have read the docs, found some example code, and bashed it together in a few hours; but I asked one of the LLMs and it gave me some example code tuned to my request, giving me a head start on that.

I had to already know a lot of context to be able to ask it the right questions, I suspect, and to thence tune it with a few follow up questions.

This suit began under the last Trump administration. If there was a Google-friendly administration, it was Obama's.

What's disappointing to Google is that all of their kowtowing to the Biden administration's "content shaping" ended up worth nothing in the end. Harris would have rewarded them for that help, but Trump of course hates them for it because it was largely directed at him.
> A company owning a web browser, OS and search engine shouldn't be a problem either

It is when Google compromises the privacy/security of Chrome because of their Ads/OS business.

For example, allowing first party cookies to be a maximum of 400 days versus Safari and Firefox where it is 7 days. These cookies are required by ads retargeting which is critical to effective ecommerce campaigns.

It also supports browser fingerprinting by advertisers which means that every random API Chrome adds (and they add a lot) directly improves their Ads revenue.
That has been a pretty wild development to watch..

I've been following him for a while, it's interesting what a polarizing figure he is..

a recent comment on his X feed resonated with quite a few people

"I’ve never seen an account that feels inspirational and makes me want to kill myself simultaneously"

He is definitely an entrepreneur/business man first and a developer second.. He has taught himself the skills to minimally get the job done functionally, has decent eye for design, and knows how to market... He makes it blatantly obvious, moreso than usual, that sales and marketing are way more important to making money than doing things technically "the right way".. At least on these smaller scale things because he only knows how to work by himself.

People hate that he's figured out how to make tens of thousands of dollars from a game that is arguably worse than hundreds of games that make nothing... I see that as just another skill that can be learned. And it is cool how transparent he is about his operations.

But yes, even with his blueprints it is hard to replicate his successes, my attempt of "one shotting" a video game was not very impressive..
I would love to completely cut reddit out of my life but would enjoy a smaller, more positive alternative that aims to provide the benefits of reddit when it was at its best but without the inherent flaws of the system's design and the dark patterns it is now known to encourage. I'm a bit put off by lemmy from my initial, cursory glance for a variety of reasons, but maybe I'm just using it wrong. Would love to hear suggestions that people have used for an extended time and would personally vouch for.

> Seeking a pardon is legal and actions in furtherance of that end are also legal as long as those actions themselves are not crimes.

I agree with this, but prisons have no obligation to let prisoners do everything that's legal. That's kinda the point of prison. If SBF has some important information to share about what it's like on the inside or why he should get a pardon, he can forward it through his lawyer.

> Legally, seeking a pardon is no different than filing an appeal.

I don't agree with this. There's all kinds of ways in which formal legal processes are different than general speech, and this is one of them. Prisoners get to talk to their lawyer and file legal documents because these are critically important rights, which can't be suspended even for a good reason.
I stopped using stack overflow altogether. It require to write very careful question not to get removed, with LLM I write 1 sentence, then few to narrow it down as needed. It could easily be 1 minute llm vs. writing SO post for 20 minutes and waiting 30 minutes for response. It also saves googling time because googling query often must be more generic to be effective so I then have to spend more time adjusting found solution, llm often gives specific answer.

The moment I realized llm are better was when I needed to do something with screen coordinates of point clouds in three.js and my searches lead nowhere, doing it myself would take me 1 or 2 hours, the llm got correct working code on first try.

Bias, absolutely. I just know, Russia was at war nearly all ~400 years it exist, and with that "liberation" wars against all surrounding peoples, over last 200 years achieve grow of territory about 2x.

So, definitely, Russia should have at least comparable to Europe number of battles on their territory.

For the past year or so I've only been watching YouTube in private browser windows to avoid getting too stuck in an algo niche. Sometimes I'll have the window open for a few days at a time and build up different interests in the recommendations. Eventually either an unplanned restart or intentionally closing the window makes me start from scratch.

Its especially interesting recently as Youtube encourages you to search for something before giving you recommendations, so you get to "seed" your session with topics you like. If nothing comes to mind I'll just start with Practical Engineering and go from there.

The only downside is that I can't "like" content to help the creators, since I'm not logged in

Thanks, this is an important nuance. Recommendation algorithms are absolutely useful, and if you're so inclined you can absolutely make them work for you, but this is about making educated, conscious decisions about what you click next in your 'Related videos' section.

Algorithmic feeds don't give us that opportunity - they're designed to require minimal effort and to keep the dopamine coming without any conscious decisions.

As a broke college student, I have lots of experience with Cisco networking equipment and have taken quite a few classes for networking. I'm trying to get my hands on a free/ultra cheap high end Cisco device that can do some more modern feature set like ROCM and other newer technologies. It also would let me upgrade my local network from 10 gig, but the main goal would be to get hands on experience with 400 and 800 gig equipment.
Yeah, I basically give orion a try every few months, I think the idea is fantastic. But it just hasn't ever hit the level of bug-free reliability that I would need, especially with extension compatibility.

It does seem like their long tail of issues is going down - each time I check in, it is clearly improved. So fingers crossed it continues to get better ...

Wow, I'm not keeping up with all the new developments in the Linux desktop land, but that surely sounds like a step back.

So let's say I'm building an app like Blender or Reaper - I'm sidestepping the need for most of the OS-specific/native-widget components, because I already need to do a whole lot of very complex and custom rendering, and that is the saner choice when going for portability. But I would still like to maintain a certain level of basic OS integration, for example a native menu bar on macOS, matching the light/dark theme with the OS, or perhaps... a native file picker?

What are my choices on Linux? Link with Gtk, and make the app look out of place on KDE? Link with KDE, and pull in half of it with me when installed on Gnome? Link both? Summon Cthulhu?...

Sounds like we've had a solution for a moment, and now we want to remove it, because think of the yaks?
one really easy example is the AI arms race. and make no mistake, it is an arms race that matters for maintaining global American supremacy and ensuring china stays secondary. LLMs are one of the very few recent technologies where the marginal cost of a user is well above zero; they require colossal build-out of energy and compute. everyone who's done a good job with them is either a tech giant or has become one in valuation. c.f. how Google specifically has been working on TPUs for years, produced solid models with Gemini, and offers them for a tiny fraction of the cost of others. having a large team experienced with scaling stuff perhaps better than anyone else is a good thing and google keeps those people paid.
