This talk seems set out to prove that "XML is Bad". Yes XML-DSig isn't great with XPaths, but most of these attack vectors has been known for 10 years. There is probably a reason w…

As having implemented EDIFACT parsers and translation layers, Universal Business Language (Oasis UBL) is a bliss to work with. Yes, it's a big standard and looks scary when startin…

Does the "Stop broadcasting SSID" option in most Wifi access points / routers prevent wardriving or is the BSSID still leaked?

I wish we would focus on making tooling better for W3C EXI (Binary XML encoding) instead of inventing new formats. Just being fast isn't enough, I don't see many using Aeron/SBT, i…

Super interesting compiling pg, I assume, with same as the zfs block size! It was always on our todo to try, but never got around to it. If possible, what block size did you end up…

If I may make an suggestion: Instead of a static json file, read at boot, I'd suggest passing the feature flags down per request as a header, or a pointer to the set of feature fla…

I see there is a few posts repeating the common interpretation that glyphosate is not dangerous because it only targets metabolic pathway only animals has, so for the sake of discu…

Krste Asanovic in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxuQW8HWBXI shows numbers that the Berkeley Rocket implementation of RISC-V is both faster and has smaller die size than the ARM C…

We run with ZFS over LUKS encrypted volumes in production on AWS ephemeral disks and have done so in over two years on Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04. The major issue for us has been getti…

Please stop spreading this misinformed statement. I assume you are referring to the ZFS ARC (Adaptive Replacement Cache). It works in much the same way as a regular Linux page cach…

I would recommend anybody interested in filesystems to watch Jeff Bonwick (ZFS inventor) explain the design of ZFS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRoUC9P1PmA . They have a few ve…
