    I never called it a strength; I simply don't care how fast Python is because I don't need to. Reasoning about what is going on under the hood with Python is just easier than Julia …

    I disagree; consistency is the most important part of this. With Python, you know where you stand - performance comes from elsewhere. With Julia it might be internal, a C/Fortran l…

    Lustre is not aligned at all with your requirements, so forget that one. Ceph is much more complex than Gluster, but also more capable. Honestly unless you are dealing with hundred…

    The UK civil service agrees.

    Sandboxing is fine, but it sounds like Snaps/Flatpaks don't actually do it because that would be too hard - so what's the point? I get that some packages do actually have sandboxin…

    UV and Superdome are custom hardware for huge NUMA boxes,so not a great comparison. ScaleMP is definitely valid though - a real shame it is stuck behind a license fee, would be int…

    The repeated references to Breton Woods/petrodollar reminds me of when Nigel Farage kept banging on about Habeas Corpus during the Brexit debates. To put it another way, this sound…

    Nonsense. People are allowed to make bad trades every second of every day without protection from the platform; but now they develop a conscience and save people from themselves? I…

    As individuals, we (mostly) want companies building open source to thrive, particularly if they aren't behemoths of the industry. Ultimately though, efficiency matters more than se…
