Wait, so the reason 115200 baud is a common bit rate for UART is because its a multiple of 9600 (x12=115200). And 9600 baud was commonly used because its 32*300 baud. And 300 baud was used because its the lowest common denominator of 50Hz and 60Hz. And that was used…

Here's a wild Linux fact: You can run an entire, separate Linux kernel inside a single process on your machine. No root, no VM software needed. This is User-Mode Linux (UML). It's a special port of the kernel that runs as a userspace application. Instead of talking to…

Your Linux distro is just two things: 1. The kernel 2. User-space binaries Once the kernel is ready, it hands off to a SINGLE userspace process: init. Everything else you run – your shell, your apps, your services – is a child of init. This means you can build a Linux system…

Does faster DDR5 memory makes the need for L1/2/3 cache go away? No, faster DDR memory does not do that. The reason is latency. Why does DDR/DRAM memory not respond immediately? Why is there a wait time before the data starts coming back? Let’s reason this out. Imagine we…

It’s a bit easier to just explain how we got here. In the old days, memory and CPU ran at the same speed. The laws of physics make it incredibly hard to ramp up the MHz of the CPU while keeping physically separated memory chips in sync. The distance is just too far for the…

The question: "Why do CPUs have multiple cache levels?" often gets many CS students and professionals thinking and researching. This article from Fabian Giesen narrates a "cache story" in a relatable way, only to delve into the details - a must-read! fgiesen.wordpress.com/2016/08/07/why…

When you plot the denominator of the Lorentz Factor equation you get a circle. The y axis is time, the x axis space, and the circle is your velocity through space-time and is always of magnitude 1, ie. the speed of light.

Calling c the "speed of light" completely misses the point. Rather, c is the "spacetime exchange rate": how many units of space you can exchange for one unit of time. In actuality, everything travels at the "speed of light", just not necessarily through space alone... (1/4)

my windows 11 observations so far - it tries to be linux - somehow fails to do it - everything feels slow, draggy, clunky - the slowness feels like el*ctron - i hope they aren’t using el*ctron - i am afraid to search for the answer - debloat script makes it usable
