Gotta love the word 'sanction'. It is it's own antonym! "The committee sanctioned the new policy." (approved it) "The committee sanctioned the rogue nation." (penalized it)

Why is glibc malloc() not more performant? Are tcmalloc/mimalloc making tradeoffs that maintainers are unwilling to make in glibc?

I switched an agent from Sonnet V2 to o3-mini (default medium mode) and got strangely poor results: only calling 1 tool at a time despite being asked to call multiple, not actually doing any work, and reporting that it did things it didn&#x

Is there a lighter weight solution that abstracts the interfaces so I can swap GPT4 with Claude, including function calling?

Do you mean that you did the research, or your AI product did the research? How are you assessing whether a death was plausibly murder? So strange that the one example you find is of a car crash (one of the most common ways people die!) and

I tried a few PFAS-free dental flosses that were horrible. I settled on Reach Waxed - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005IHMXEQ

Interesting that you say you worry about re-creating the cluster from scratch because I've experienced exactly the opposite. Our EKS cluster required so many operations outside CloudFormation to configure access control, add-ons, metri

I've climbed the mountain of learning the basics of kubernetes / EKS, and I'm thinking we're going to switch to ECS. Kubernetes is way too complicated for our needs. It wants to be in control and is hard to direct with e

I was surprised to learn that PFAS are in dental floss, used to help in glide between teeth easily. This study linked using such floss and higher blood concentrations of PFAS: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41370-018-

How well does OPNsense deal with bufferbloat in a home networking situation? It appears to implement fq_codel for traffic shaping, but not the newer cake algorithm. Test: https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat

High fructose corn syrup is a very poor example. It is composed of fructose and glucose, both very familiar molecules to our bodies.

I set up an account with the public DNS provider and it doesn't appear to support multiple entries per record type. For example, time.cloudflare.com has two A records but the UI only shows the one.

by cyounkins 4y ago
Right, but unless it's documented how do you know that the DNS entry won't change? They could change infra so it's DNS load-balanced instead of anycast and still at time.cloudflare.com It wasn't clear but I provided the

That's great! But I'd want to see it documented - I searched but couldn't find IP addresses, only the domain. For me time.cloudflare.com = 162.159.200.123

Interesting! Unfortunately due to write endurance many networking devices mount their filesystem read-only. This means they also sometimes lack a log file describing why the device shut down!

If your clock was just reset, how do you know what time it is? How do you trust that your own clock is accurate? How do you know your clock wasn't incorrect before ? Usually the answer to all these is NTP.

Cool! I searched but couldn't find any docs - looks like it might have been for ntpjs? What was the process like to get an ASN to do this?

Yeah I guess in general if the security of TLS depends on correct timekeeping (eg a compromised key enables an attacker to use an old cert), then in theory we should secure the time sync protocol. The NIST servers page [1] describes an auth
