1st one is the fastest in Cpython and causes the least mallocs. Ultimately not sure what the criterion for best is here

Hackers solve challenging problems whose solutions are not clear. This is not a challenging problem, and the solution was obvious. This is not an example of curiosity being explore…

This solution isn't ideal because it requires multiple internet facing IPs. It's fine for a private network. SRV records are the right solution. There needs to be more advocacy for…

I like bootstrapping but I don't believe in coasting on a lifestyle business or anything similar to what DHH promotes (which I view as mediocrity).

Hey man I read your profile and you sound wise (according to my pre-existing biases). Just curious, what API/platform do you use for your trading bots?

IPOs are by definition "wealth transfers" from investors to business owners.

Saying Silicon Valley is dead is like saying the earth is dead. Saying Silicon Valley is in trouble is like saying the earth is in trouble. It's just irrational agenda-oriented FUD…

Reading the comments it seems like not many people here are entreprenuerially-minded. What do others think?

Sure but how common is that case? How common are multi-tenant Linux systems with untrusted users that give those specific permissions? Do you want untrusted users sniffing the pack…

The bpf() system call and SOCK_RAW both require root. Is there an example of using bpf that doesn't require root?

For experimentation and testing, a kernel module for each rule doesn't seem unworkable. Just hide all the details behind a nice tool. For production, placing all rules in a single …

If you write your kernel module in eBPF (by pre-compiling to native code) it can't crash either.

I'm not arguing against eBPF the language. It's safety guarantees make sense to me. I'm arguing against the in-kernel eBPF infrastructure: bpf system call, the JIT and the VM. I th…

I can but I don't see why that is necessary. It's plain to see that it's possible and performs better in production since it avoids the JIT step. https://github.com/tsgates/rust.ko…

I'm not sure this argument makes sense. Avoiding accidentally crashing the kernel doesn't require a BPF layer. For instance, you could just write your kernel module in a sufficient…

I'm confused why BPF exists in the first place. Can't we just compile kernel modules that hook into the tracing infrastructure? It seems like a webassembly for the kernel but local…
