It will take Nvidia 10 years to release the firmware for PMU and then they will cancel it because it's "too old". Just like the they did with pascal, P520 and other perfectly working hardware that are barely usable to this day.

Wasn't the initial selling point of AWS to provide reliable and easy to use services using commodity hardware?

> For example, my very existence as a moderately young, moderately successful computer scientist threatens some men’s sense of identity, thus making them uncomfortable and/or lash out.

I'm not a woman, but I faced this soooo many times in my career that now I believe that it's just insecure men feeling threatened by other people's knowledge or capabilities. Usually these people are hiding something and they are not as smart as perceived. Having someone in the room that can potentially unmask that makes them insecure.

You have to address the behavior the first time it occurs by establishing boundaries otherwise it keeps happening more and more.

And that is a leadership/management failure to address these behaviors. In all occasions the insecure men were so loud and obnoxious that management prefers not to deal with it and take the easy route by firing the target of the abuse, reinforcing the behavior more and more.

It's common for people to think 'usr' stands for 'user' instead of 'unix system resources'.

I like how clean this blog/website is.

Does anyone know if it is a custom engine/theme or not?

Oh, "painful" is to work under the sun. Installing a program in a computer is far away from painful.
I had two similar experiences in the past years: I added some database indices, the application become super fast, the rest of the team starts acting weird, I get shown the door.

At this point I'm pretty sure anything IT relate became a bullshit job.

Also, packages are tested in sid/unstable and migrates to testing which then becomes the new stable when it's ready.

And packages are tested across releases, enabling one to dist-upgrade to a new version of the system easily. I think it's piuparts that does this job of testing packages among themselves too.

RedHat used to have a good open mind approach with CentOS, but then they got acquired by IBM and started switching their efforts somehow.

Creating a series of connections very quickly is cheaper in MySQL and MariaDB than in PostgreSQL. Typically, a connection poller is used before PostgreSQL to support connection scalability.

I'm not sure if there has been a recent breakthrough that has changed that. I think that still applies today. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Unless management is also an enabler/part of such incompetence.
