From what I can read, this press release mentions that they have so far reached an agreement to work together on the project, and they are currently _planning_ on using a KSI blockchain. Too early to say if the project will succeed or not.

Could you name any projects that are based on a blockchain and which could not have been viable with any other technical solution, such as an SQL-based database like PostgreSQL?

> silent is better than quiet In most cases the beefiest air cooler + the lowest tolerable fan curve (meaning no overheating) will do the job just fine, especially if the CPU TDP is between 35-65W. Alternatively you can also limit the CP

Fan cooling a Raspberry Pi 4 is such an odd thing to do. You are essentially taking one of the pros of the Pi - quiet and reliable operation - and replacing it with a moving part that will not offer too much benefit and will eventually wear

I must point out that this does NOT cover ThinkPad T and X series. From the press release: > Our entire portfolio of ThinkStation and ThinkPad P Series workstations will now be certified via both Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Ubuntu LTS –

The available power budget and memory bandwidth will be the limiting factors for those new APU-s, just like for the current generation. Given the performance requirements that I have seen for VR I don't think the new APU-s will be able

Have you tried out ZFS? It's quite good at resolving failures and data corruption and can be configured in all sorts of combinations, depending on your performance and disk failure tolerance requirements.

I have found myself with a similar issue. Haven't been in the industry for too long (been working for over 3 years), but the constant shitshow that is FE development is really taking a toll on me. No matter what you do, people keep cha

I remember reading somewhere that nowadays a significant chunk of the instructions isn't actually implemented on the CPU using transistors, but by using CPU microcode to sort of emulate these instructions by combining existing ones. So

AMD has committed to supporting AM4 until 2020, but you still have a fantastic upgrade path to the 3950X 16C32T CPU and plenty of RAM.

Given enough writes, any SSD will eventually fail. As a related anecdote, I did some stress-testing on a ZFS filesystem with two Kingston NVMe SSD-s in mirrored configuration and at one point I got two random read errors on one drive, which

I also used btrfs not too long ago in RAID1. I had a disk failure and voila, the array would be read-only from now on and I would have to recreate it from scratch and copy data over. I even utilized the different data recovery methods (at s

I like to think about messages being ephemeral. If a piece of information needs to be saved, I just store it outside the messaging app. This includes media files, too.

For someone based outside the US it feels so odd that the delivery services just leave the packages outside the house. Why not address that particular issue head-on instead of deploying a surveillance network to handle the consequences? Loc
