Mostly, they try to avoid it by allocating extents instead of blocks (so, they look for a contiguous space to store most files) and by delaying allocation to accommodate for a growing files.

Author here. This article features interactive demonstrations of the spanning tree protocol (an old protocol to detect and fix loops in Ethernet networks) using MSTPD (user-space implementation for Linux) compiled to WebAssembly with Emscri

This is not untrue, but I suppose that if you don't prevent bots from accessing your website, they won't try to use the more advanced scrapers running JS and won't trigger your analytics.

The bug on Linux still exists today on this family (e100, e1000, e1000e). Maybe the root cause is different, but the solution is still to disable TCP segmentation offload and I suppose this is a firmware bug. At some point, Mellanox took ov

It is now mostly unusable for web analytics. So many scrapers are pretending to be browsers. On my site, there is a factor 10 with what I consider an honest view of human visitors.

In France, thanks to STIR/SHAKEN, this is not possible any more for the fixed phone numbering plans (and telemarketers have to register their phone numbers in a subset of this numbering plan). For mobile lines, this is still not 100% i

After 27" 4K OLED last year, I suppose 24" are next! I didn't have the patience to wait and I have migrated to 27" 4k OLED (Alienware).

I have switched from FVWM to awesome because of Lua. Many years later, I have switched to i3 because it's not using a programming language for configuration. It's fine to have a configuration language if you have time to maintain,

It's easy to disprove. This website is not behind CF. Also: https://backlinko.com/cloudflare-users .

I don't think CF is that much present, but yes, the situation is dire.

I often run a linkchecker on my blog and substitute broken URL with links to the Wayback machine. Unfortunately, this is becoming quite difficult to detect broken URL as everybody is fighting bots. I am using linkchecker < https:/&#

Biking is not meant to replace everything. More people biking means more room for people that cannot bike. Bike-heavy cities like Amsterdam show that most of your "facts" are incorrect (bikes can be used to transport goods, are us

It already does. With IPv6, you don't go through some CGNAT box, that could misbehave or just break (and since the biggest chunk of content is available through IPv6, this may not be a priority). Also, a shared IPv4 can be banned by va

6rd will soon get away to get native IPv6 instead. Also, 6rd is what allowed France to lead IPv6 deployment.

But PulseAudio API is still the "standard".

I don't understand why Cloudflare got unrestricted access while Daniel Stenberg got Mythos run by a third party on cURL and only got a report. Well, I understand, but I may be wrong.

I find this fascinating. I also like to customize my desktop experience with my own code, but it's more assembling stuff with some additional code as glue. A word of warning: a reliable lock tool for X11 is difficult. You should look a
