Or you know... Switch to @redpandadata, it just hits different.

Spending too much on your streaming infrastructure? Tips to optimize & cut your Kafka costs by a ton: • enable & tweak compression (less produce, replication & consume data in/out) • KIP-405 - store cold data in S3 • tweak retention • align consumers to read from the same…



Maintaining an illusion of necessity is the first step of many in a bureaucracy.

If I could think of a phrase from pop culture that would embody the level of care and true security interest exhibited by the Linux CNA, it'd probably be "I'm just here so I don't get fined."

[ASPLOS'25] Fusion: An Analytics Object Store Optimized for Query Pushdown cs.princeton.edu/~mfreed/docs/f… Tightly integrating an Iceberg catalog with an object store means that one could make file-format aware erasure coding decisions, to permit pushing down filters and aggregations.

Has anyone built an LLM based content recovery system? For things like deleted posts or accounts that got banned or locked away. If LLMs are trained on its content, it might be possible to recover those. Would be a pretty nifty tool for many things.

True. A new 0day is only a dependency upgrade away.


Next: shadcn of agent capabilities - impl. can be swapped out - allows reusable and composable capabilities - independently optimize capabilities, isolated testing, and benchmarking - override any detail you want, since you vendor the code - tree shakability

💡Someone should build a TailwindCSS of MCP Servers. Declaratively choose which tool calls, endpoints (utilities) you want to use, and at build time, only those get compiled in your $SYSTEM$ Allows for pluggable implementations, chainable tool calls, and much more

MCP servers are CSS equivalent of LLM/AI - Full specification - Declarative & widely adopted - Libraries, frameworks & tooling integrations (IDE, API) - LinkedIn courses & bullish startups - devs don't want to deal with it - machines choke on too much of it

Hey! You think no one is checking your code? But overall, simple and easy to understand technique. Not a windows programmer, but I could follow. I didn't know it was possible to straight up read/write to registers of a thread you spawn. Kind of demystified how debuggers work.

New tool drop! Let me show you Obex: github.com/dis0rder0x00/o… Spawn a process and block unwanted DLLs from loading (in user mode). Example: spawn powershell without "amsi.dll" for an easy amsi-less experience :)



Nice quality improvement to testing Even better, testing being promoted by them. You don't see that very often. It's usually posts like "why x adopted y when their business experienced exponential scale"

🧪Exit testing is new in Swift 6.2! Now it's easy to check whether code exits cleanly, and ensure it prints the expected output to the console. Here's a sssssuper sssssimple sssssample! 🐍 More at developer.apple.com/documentation/…

This isn't based on tested, battle hardened, learned practices. This is to get likes on social media. You can pretty much guarantee to get VC funding and social following if your tagline is "we're (re)building X but in Rust" No real contribution, they aren't inventing anything…

Ubuntu’s plan to replace the GNU Core Utils with Rust-based reimplementations is going exactly as poorly as predicted. Some Rust versions being 17 times slower than the battle tested GNU C / C++ version. And other Rust-based versions simply failing to work on large files.

No way this is real.

True 💯 1. GCP is inefficient by default 2. Complexity is in their veins 3. You need the GCP specialists and people working on it along with your already well qualified team 4. GCP could be millions of dollars cheaper, but their DX/UX is designed against it 5. Make everything…

Software has always had a huge market for keeping the nostalgia alive or keeping things stable. 1. Build products that bring back the good'ol' days, be it a word processor or a new OS 2. Introduce feature creep and value monetization 3. Loose user trust. 4. Rinse & repeat.…

Linux on the desktop is starting to look more appealing by the day - not because it’s getting better, but because everything else is getting worse and piling on features I can’t stand
