I am a final-year CS undergrad at JNU (graduating 2027) looking for a Systems / Rust Internship, possibly transitioning into a full-time role after graduation (June 2027).

Recent work:

- Redox OS (RSoC 2026): Re-architected the kernel CPU scheduler from Round-Robin to Interleaved DWRR and finally to EEVDF with per-core runqueues and dynamic work-stealing (782x fairness improvement, 82% latency reduction). Featured on Phoronix (https://www.phoronix.com/news/Redox-OS-Goes-EEVDF). Detailed blog @ https://himwant.org/posts/redox-eevdf/

- Rust & ML Infrastructure: Implemented Depth Anything V3 monocular depth estimation in pure Rust using Burn; contributed foundational ONNX ops.

- OS Internals & Writing: Authoring low-level deep dives bridging academic OS theory to real-world microkernel code. Just launched the "OSTEP & Redox" series: https://himwant.org/series/ostep--redox/

I am primarily interested in teams working on low-level infrastructure, operating systems, hypervisors/virtualization, database storage engines, or high-performance distributed systems. If your team is working on something interesting, even if technically adjacent, feel free to contact me!

If every build is different, no two builds will have the same bug/exploit, so maybe better security??

Alternating and advancing from both ends seems to work, it calls n-1, and n+1 correctly if the previous guess was n, but got no calls in a sequence like - 1, 8, 3, 7, 4, 7, 1, 7, 3, 8, etc

Oh how I wish you guys would hire new grads. I got into kernel dev partly due to zfs and partly due to Redox OS. Well atleast I have worked with Redox now, hopefully someday with you guys too :)

Thank you for the article but what about students who truly have no connections? It seems like a bleak time for us, none in my family work in even a corporation that would need tech people and my friends are in similar boat.

Luckily I was able to complete an internship lately (implemented EEVDF scheduler for Redox OS) but even then, the amount of Rust Junior jobs are so rare that it is proving to not be of much help.

I just recently finished my Redox Summer of Code where I implemented the EEVDF scheduler and related parts in the Rust-based microkernel Redox OS (https://himwant.org/posts/redox-eevdf/).

I am now reading through the excellent OSTEP book and documenting topic-by-topic how a real kernel (Redox) tackles the topic. I have covered struct proc and scheduling till now, the next is memory management! (https://himwant.org/series/ostep--redox/)

Redox seems to take inspiration from it and has all things exposed as schemes so /home/user is actually /scheme/file/home/user, etc.

Hi I am the author. Feel free to ask anything.

Hello everyone, I am Akshit Gaur, the student who authored this post.

I spent the summer migrating Redox from Round Robin to Deficit Weighted Round Robin and now finally to EEVDF. It was hard-work, espescially because this was my first time working on a codebase that was not my own.

The move has netted us quite significant gains (including one 782x, read the post for the context ;) ).

I also have the same post mirrored on my personal site (https://himwant.org/posts/redox-eevdf/#did-it-change-anythin...) with the only difference being, a duck speaking sanskrit and an owl translating for her.

Happy to answer any questions!

(P.S. I am entering my final year of CS at JNU and actively looking for a systems/Rust internship for Jan–April 2027, transitioning into a full-time role after. If your team works at the lower levels of the stack, I’d love to connect. My email and resume are on my site: himwant.org)

The problem is not with the poor/small farmers. Those people are genuinely fucked over. The problem are the larger "farmers", quotations because they do not do the farming themselves, rather renting the fields out to landless laborers at extraordinary costs, in a system reminiscent of the medieval feudal systems

There is a difference between invasion and migration though, AIT has long been debunked, the current consensus is AMT

But isn't the entire point of that system prompt to stop the malicious users. The majority of users are not going to ask those requests anyway.

The problem with that is we don't have any kind of training data in that abstract sense, maybe we could use RL to figure that out but current RL techniques are too slow and prone to breakage that anybody trying to use them to train a big enough general model (LLM, diffusion, world model, etc) will either fail or have to make a very very big investment.

The other option is maybe hook up humans to EEG or the likes and map their brains while they solve different kinds of problem, or just see and feel the world around them

A genuine question for the people here, I am just a college student so maybe I am missing something, but does anybody actually browse through linkedin? The only times I actually open it up is when either I did something that I would like to remember when I update my Resume at a later date, or when my friends text me to open it up and like their post :)

They could go the sqlite route for it then, no outside code but let us have a look

Did he say where he was moving to? Couldn't find it myself.

Its VC funded too, so I wouldn't bet too much on it. Try out ngit or radicle, or codeberg if your code is open-source

Hello! The author here, albeit only saw this after 6 days. But if anyone has any questions feel free to ask. This is my first project of this scale!!

Hey, I am just getting started with blogging, could/should I submit my website too?

They didn't even choose two, only one :)

I get public transport being more "difficult" than uber, but more expensive too? Where are you from if you don't mind me asking?

I'm the undergrad who commented earlier. I’ve been poking around the Hubris source code and it’s exactly the kind of stack I want to work on. I'm actually doing the Redox Summer of Code this year, focused on implementing an EEVDF scheduler and a performance testing harness for the kernel.

From the inside, is Oxide a place where a fresh grad can actually be useful? Or is the "complexity floor" of hardware/software co-design so high that you really just need a few decades of experience to be effective? I'd love a reality check on whether I should keep Oxide as a long-term 10-year goal or if there’s a path for people starting out.

I just came to know about Oxide the other day, and god damn if it is not a dream workplace! High salary, flat structure, a large open-source presence, and maybe much more! Their blogs are really good too.

I am an undergraduate right now and looking at the people working there, it doesn't seem likely they would hire a fresh grad, I think I have found the yardstick I am going to measure myself by going forward, "Am I skilled enough that I could work at Oxide?". Hope more companies follow suit in putting the people forward!!

Codeberg, Tangled, Radicle!

Codeberg, if your product/project is open source, otherwise try out Tangled.org and Radicle!!

Radicle is the most exciting out of these, imo!
