Now that's what a backbone looks like.

Had an instance with almost 2TB on disk in 2015, it's probably a lot more by now, if it's still running as-is. Was for analytics/data-warehousing. Though the big table was partitio…

10-15W for a wifi router with a cable modem, less if it's only wifi, but that's the general ballpark (this is measured with a calibrated smart-plug)

In my experience of almost a decade in infosec now, no, we're not okay. I don't know any other group where so many people are struggling with burnout or who have developed a drinki…

I hope they'll try to upstream some of those drivers at least. I've written driver code for some parts before and I was better off not even looking at their code and only going by …

that's interesting, ADI doesn't even list it anymore on their website but it's marked as still active. i guess it's still used in some test&measurement equipment.

they didn't though. zstd has been around even before the main dev joined fb, i distinctly remember it being under the persons personal github name.

you might've mistaken it for v which has been open-sourced in the meantime: https://github.com/vlang/v

Most of the developers have been and still are in Estonia. It would be easier to enforce regulations there technically.

Exagear is originally from the Russian company Eltechs and was targeted to running x86 apps on SBCs like the Raspberry Pi. e.g. they provided Ubuntu images with wine to run windows…

It's already running an almost mainline kernel: https://twitter.com/mntmn/status/1259611758827835394 and what is left looks like it would be easy to get upstreamed. I don't know ab…

Yeah, i saw the part now too that everything has to be placed first. This makes it quite... unspectacular. It's really cool if they come up with a good auto-router, but if it's jus…

Quite the contrary, KiCad is constantly improving and getting better with each release. When did your Altium last crash? I bet it wasn't more than a week ago. To quote a colleague:…

That's human powered for sure. Routing isn't the hardest problem, everything is quick once all the components are placed where they belong. E.g. TopoR already does quite a good job…

I have the most experience with TI silicon, so that's where i can talk most about the datasheets. Some are excellent, many are really good and except for the odd outlier, most are …

Because I see it again and again: Please don't put 20 years old dc/dc converters into new things. Neither price nor package are valid resons. There's cheaper and better ones availa…

Not all workers have a union. And the current trend in Hungary is to take away more and more workers rights. A law is quite toothless if it's not implemented that way. Example for …

Yes, the employers can and will try to pay out the overtime only after that time. And some are already trying to do just that. There have been large protests which the state media …

That's only half true. Chinese authorities will generally just not let you out of the country again, if the crime isn't severe enough. Also as a foreigner you won't necessarily be …

There's (in my experience) not a very large overlap between overly promiscuous poly people and other poly people. Not having long-term stable partners is also not mutually exclusiv…

Location: Vienna, AT Remote: preferred Résumé/CV: upon request, looking since very recently Technologies: Go, C, C++, Python, (No)SQL, Splunk, LogPoint, QRadar, binja, IDA Pro Emai…

There's the HiFive from SiFive though. Which is the Arduino form-factor board with their Freedom E310 core.

Just looked, UPC wants 45€/m for 300/30 over coax. Fiber would be so nice though.
