ETL processes are heavily I/O bound, especially when you're trying to shuttle data from one enterprise system to another enterprise system. It's also common when the culture of data exchange from the regulator all the way dow

I suggest you make yourself a private fork of Pi so that you don't have to be beholden to Mario and his not-so-new clique. Create a private repo in GitHub first, then do a bare Git clone of https://github.com/badlogic&#

If they did, they left out the best one: "m-m-m-m-monsterkill" Surely Anthropic could do a better job implementing dynamic thinking token budgets.

Not gonna lie: the "ultrathink" keyword that Sonnet 3.7 with thinking tokens watches for gives me "doubleplusgood" vibes in a hilarious but horrifying way.

I'm surprised no one here has mentioned rinseless washes like Optimum No Rinse (ONR) as an option for washing your car. You dilute it with water in a 1:256 solution in a bucket, and then you use a slightly-dripping microfiber towel or

Dave Taht's bufferbloat project could have gotten way more actual non-technical user data had Flent supported Windows. At least fast.com and Waveform's bufferbloat test [1] exist now. [1]: https://www.waveform.com/

For enterprise, sure, using a separate IDM provider works, but last I checked, neither Okta nor OneLogin cater to individuals and their personal accounts. So as far as threat models go, I understand why people view this requirement from Tai

Why recommend RED for client-side routers? Better to use more modern AQM approaches such as fq_codel or its successor cake [1][2]. Both of them are far easier to apply to client-side routers without fussing too much with settings: setting y

Heh, was this you [1]? Pretty much asking the same good questions you brought up in a different post. Additionally, I see that the Senior Director of Engineering, Tim Zallmann, has left a bunch of GitLab project repos about 14 hours ago as

Along with a couple of others (this [1] being an example), thanks for responding. I read paganel's follow up post [2] and was flabbergasted at how out of touch he sounded. The shock is the main reason why I chose not to respond myself

Yep, there will usually be opportunities for arbitrage for active traders if there are too many passive investors. I suspect there will be some sort of equilibrium between active and passive at some point. The thing is that I'd rather

That's what ETFs like VXUS and IXUS are for. You get international exposure. VT is another good choice if you're lazy and just want to own a slice of the global stock market.

Has there been any serious push to get HFT accessible to the average retail investor in the same way that Vanguard did with the S&P 500? As for beating indexes, it goes back to the age-old question of being able to identify the great au

I mean, ARM is eating x86's lunch in the smartphone space. Are ARM CPUs more power efficient than x86 CPUs? That could be the deciding factor on whether it will take over.
