At the risk of defending a faceless megacorporation, I'm curious what injuries per package look like at Amazon vs "Industry Average". According to the article, productivity expecta…

Have you heard of this thing called quantum computing?

The article did say that the motivation for doing so was because AWS credits were running out .. why prematurely optimize a free resource? :)

I built some coronavirus simulations to explore the impacts of our actions in a virtual environment - let me know what you think! Goals of this project are to spread high quality i…

Yeah that would be incredibly useful for testing policy in a simulated environment before releasing into the wild :) One of the hardest challenges is "How do we choose realistic pa…

Another fun surprising result from queuing theory is that if you have a buffer of pending RPC's that have some deadline, it is better to service them in a "unfair" LIFO order, as o…

Given that the A12X runs at < 10% of the TDP of an Intel i7 chip, would it be feasible to utilize many of these A12X's in a 10+ socket motherboard to significantly increase NUMA-co…
