    They have an entire youtube channel. For example, see this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uF-GSj-Exms Some of their stuff for handling data and versioned pipelines seem very well…

    Won't work for SSL encrypted connections (but, yes, this does add some latency)

    It's beautiful and the demo video shows how someone with music background can make even such a limited tool sound so amazing.

    No. String.hashCode() was already memoized. So after the first call to hashCode(), future calls just retrieved the data from the hash field of the string object. This optimization …

    No. The string hash is stored as part of the String object. It is initialized to 0 but gets set to the real hash of the string on first call to hashCode() (which is why it will be …

    The biggest problem Intel had was that their process was optimized for their high end processors. Everything else (within the company) suffered. For Intel to succeed as a foundry i…

    How can it tie requests arriving at a service and generating additional downstream requests? Distributed tracing needs some common token all requests share to identify all RPCs tha…

    Is this similar to MySQL's InnoDB? (which is also MVCC and does not require vacuum)

    Unrelated: anything similar for increasing photo resolution? I frequently encounter cases where users upload low resolution images (transferred using Whatsapp or similar) and need …

    My take: have a few database instances (machines) each holding the data for a group of customers. With postgres you can even put different customers on the same database instances …

    This one is about compression, reliable communication. While interesting and well-written, I don't think it matches the original request for "papers on AI, ML, ...".

    Can you explain what's non-deterministic about swagger/open-api?

    This is small: https://www.radiantnuclear.com/ Yes, I understand it isn't comparable (1.2MW). But portable doesn't require construction. Surely something in-between can be built?

    May I suggest joining some sort of sports activity where you can meet and train with others? For example, an amateur running team or cycling. Search for a mixed group - not an elit…

    Not sure what's your use case, but for me photopea.com made paint.net redundant. Definitely worth checking out.

    Everything that requires a loop and is not expressible using list comprehensions. Really for one liners, Ruby (or even Perl) are much better. Python with its significant whitespace…

    Is there a way to place the BPF filter after IP packet reassembly? Otherwise, matching for TCP port, etc. fails to capture fragments which do not have the TCP header and the result…

    Beautiful! Thanks for doing this work. Can you explain a bit on the process that was used to create this? How do you determine your position inside the pyramid precisely? (would ma…

    I think companies don't like these. Businesses prefer when users download their app. They now have some real-estate on the user's phone. For instant-apps you invest all the effort …

    Does that mean they also trade _memory_ for low pause times? Because, in our application, the memory required for avoiding significant GC pauses is at least 4x the amount of memory…

    I agree. It's easier to build TUI apps (and more portable usually) then fully native GUI applications. Another point for TUI apps is that they are usually keyboard focused unlike G…

    To get to a low GC overhead in Java (and perhaps other languages too) you have to pay with an increase in memory consumption. Sometimes as much as 100% additional RAM to avoid freq…
