It's not just better performance on latency benchmarks, it likely improves throughput as well because the writes will be batched together. Many applications do not require true durability and it is likely that many applications benefit

I was _extremely disappointed_ not to see this meme when I clicked on the link. Will not consider using this extension until Xzibit is prominently featured.

This is an insane standard and attempting to adhere to it would mean that the CVE database, which is already mostly full of useless, irrelevant garbage, is now just the bug tracker for _every single open source project in the world_.

if it's not compiled in by default, then you aren't shipping the code! Somebody is downloading it and compiling it themselves!

Great idea! Now to just find somewhere to put a billion dollars worth of solar PV in California, preferably somewhere where it doesn't ever get dark so the power will stay on at night.

How does this kind of shit get upvoted? it really takes about 5 seconds of thinking about this to realize why this "analysis" is stupid - he takes an INCREDIBLY expansive view of what counts as "pollution" from food prod

Yes it is, it's part of the standard go toolchain as described in the first blog post in the series: https://eng.uber.com/dynamic-data-race-detection-in-go-code/

At least some of these would be caught by running your tests with race detection on? I haven't read the whole article yet but as soon as I read the loop variable one I was pretty sure I have written code with that exact bug and had it

An important step here that is missing here is evaluating if your fix is going to cause other, potentially worse problems. I suspect that in this case, it's fairly unlikely that increasing the maximum POST body size to 60 MB is going t

Maybe I am misunderstanding how this works, but if you did that, you would no longer have a pointer with a valid metadata flag, and if you try to use it, you get a fault (at least on the Morello board that ARM has built). Perhaps you could

There are comments suggesting that this was reported the Apache some time ago, but a CVE wasn't assigned? Getting a CVE assigned, even with hardly any details at all ("get ready to upgrade log4j") could have really helped peo

Yup! As I noted in a comment above, this is just not a common case for us - usually our inbound traffic is coming from SEO which sends you to the right place. But when I am typing it into a search box, it's real easy to forget. I am go

Well...in many cases all it really tells you is the roundtrip network latency, which may or may not be something you are interested in. In my case it actually was sort of interesting - it definitely suggested that the redirects don't h

That's just the NICU expenses. If your baby needed any procedures (e.g. MRIs), that would likely be in addition to that. Both my kids spent ~3 weeks in NICU, bill for everything (entirely covered by insurance except for $100 co-pay!) w
