This was out of left field. I didn’t expect the pardon but the sense of camaraderie with the founder of Silk Road is less surprising.

Det bubblar av irritation och frustration inom Solidariska byggare. För trots de senaste årens många framgångar ratas nu den syndikalistiska fackföreningen från att delta i Byggnadsarbetareförbundets nordiska konferens om arbetslivskriminalitet och migrantorganisering som hålls i Stockholm nästa vecka.

@vibhatsu I originally wrote it for when there was a highlights program of a T20 or one-day game. It's usually impossible to follow how the second team's progress relates to the target, so the "scoring Worm" is incredibly useful, especially for my wife, who is not experienced, but happy to watch a game with me.
And yes, it was a fun little project.
One day I should become familiar with how to make little projects like this available for other people.

Whenever SCOTUS makes an unconstitutional ruling, state governors should do what Joe Biden should have done: announce that the court has delegitimized itself by making such a ruling, and declare that their state will not recognize the rulings of an illegitimate court.

Very Promising Linux Patch Optimizes TLB Flushes During Page Reclamation
Very Promising Linux Patch Optimizes TLB Flushes During Page Reclamation
Google engineer Vinay Banakar sent out a patch this week for the Linux kernel's memory management code to optimize TLB flushes during page reclaim and are showing very promising results.www.phoronix.com
reshared this
(quick search)
A TLB flush is used when the virtual memory address mappings to physical memory addresses need to be updated.
This patch reduces the number of flushes needed to keep the memory current by a factor of 512, by using some fancy buffering.
Sounds good, wonder if I'll notice it once it's mainline
This probably won't make much difference unless your application is frequently adding and removing large numbers of page mappings (either because it's explicitly unmapping memory segments, or because pages are constantly being swapped in and out due to low system memory). I would suspect that the only things which would really benefit from this under "normal" circumstances are some particularly I/O intensive applications with lots of large memory mappings (e.g. some webservers, some BitTorrent clients), or applications which are frequently allocating and deallocating huge slabs of memory.
There might be some improvement during application startup as all the code+data pages are mapped in and the memory allocator's arenas fill up, but as far as I know anonymous mappings are typically filled in one page at a time on first write so I don't know how relevant this sort of batching might be.

Literally Trump's storm troopers.
His power-abusing, justice-obstructing pardons of 1,600 terrorist Capitol attackers also are a desperate, underhanded & brazen attempt to **exculpate himself**, suggesting to the public "if they didn't do wrong, then neither did he!
Besides being another, this time nonviolent insurrection against the authority of the United States & the laws thereof.
