A burgle.

It's been several years since I've released anything new, but here is some instrumental work: https://soundcloud.com/bashcoder/popular-tracks

By way of documentation, this refers to FCC Part 97 rules, specifically §97.113(4): "Music using a phone emission except as specifically provided elsewhere in this section; communi…

In fact, we couldn't switch to Scylla prior to 2019 because their support of incremental counters wasn't yet complete.

Hi Alex - This looks a lot like what Scylladb did to unleash the potential of the Cassandra space, with a fully optimized C++ rewrite of an Apache project. Did you draw some inspir…

Agreed. We have already migrated 90% of our workloads to graviton2. After running our performance tests, it's a no-brainer price/performance boost.

Yes - this is the issue for me with the Razer controllers: They are right-handed only. Like the Sherbet, the Azeron is 3D printed, which of course makes it much easier to manufactu…

These have always been magical devices to me. I still use and maintain an old Heathkit capacitor tester that uses one as its indicator.

CPAN also exists, but not as it once did. Perl 5 wasn't just a language, but an ecosystem.

“Meat’s back on the menu, boys!”

In your view, does this study fall short of answering the “is it true?” question?

Alternatively, it could also be in the interest of many for these patches to have an inordinate negative affect on performance with Intel CPUs. I am reminded that Linus has experie…

The most striking thing here is that Linus has apparently dismissed incompetence as a rational explanation. Yes, he is often brash, but usually he is accusing someone of sheer stup…

Yes - I’ve had five kids. The sum total cost was less than the claim in the title of this article.

The author misses one key point: it’s not only about debt coming due on their scheduled dates. It’s that much of this debt is also saddled with covenants that can cause a debt to b…

It was my understanding that CoreOS was started as a minimal Linux distro tooled for hosting and orchestrating Docker containers. IMHO, Docker still has a long way to go to impress…

Maybe, but in the meantime I can't imagine a scenario where such a direct financial threat to a business isn't vigorously defended by Symantec. I'm not a lawyer, but certainly they…

How about you bump to 0.14 now, with this patch included? 0.13 is the Homebrew version, with data collection still enabled.

Fair point, but it's also fair to note that Perl 6 development began 17 years ago.

To a large degree, the ongoing utility of Perl 6 depends upon the continued vibrancy of the CPAN community. IMHO, CPAN is anything but vibrant by today's standards. While CPAN host…

You can request pre-warming for additional ELB capacity, when you know far enough in advance that you will have a spike. AWS customer service responds by asking 10 clarifying quest…

If you install this Chrome extension, it has the ability to "read and change your data on all google.com sites." Why is this necessary? Seems like quite an overreach.

I probably should have said that it "can" run on any node. Yes, currently it does run on every node, but their roadmap doesn't have the requirement that every node be actively part…

I listed what I like. "Excites" is your word. I guess what I meant by "from scratch" is that they aren't burdened by legacy code, and aren't limited to using the Paxos algorithm. I…

I know that there are lots of heavyweight folks who swear by Zookeeper as both a reliable and powerful tool, and for good reason. Unfortunately the docs can be fairly inscrutable, …
