    Hi. ok, I get that. Maybe something like A-left to move to next i3 window and A-S-left to move to next tmux window within an i3 window ? Perhaps a tiling window manager with multip…

    Hi. Nice kit. > I couldn't use my normal `i3`/`sway` bindings to switch between terminals inside a tmux session Just curious, what are your normal 'i3'/'sway' bindings that you can…

    I used this method for a cache eviction/replacement scheme. For our use case it was better than traditional lru.

    Was at Convex and then HP (and then Convey) and worked quite hard porting/optimizing numerical/scientific apps for the I2. Eventually, I think performance for some apps was ok, I m…

    And perhaps k8s is a specific category to consider here. I've read and thought I've experienced where 'active' (as opposed to in-active) page-cache does count towards k8s mem limit…
