Go look at the stock history, the moment Ballmer became CEO in 2000 the price stopped growing, lulled back down into the ~20-30's and stayed there until he stepped down in 2014. He did "exceptionally well" at keeping it where it was...

Looks like rss feeds are per blog, so just append /feed/ to any author's blog root. I can't find a mechanism to get a feed with all authors content however.

Ex: https://people.kernel.org/monsieuricon/feed/

I'm not sure I agree with (a), any app that is focused on perf is likely going to use jemalloc or any of the other high performance allocators (tcmalloc), and completely bypass the libc implementation...

There is no virtualization used in SQL server on Linux... It's not a VM. It's a just like any other Linux process... It just happens to have something that looks a lot like the NT Kernel running inside that process.

I did read your entire post, I saw that you acknowledged the fact that the AMA was 3 years old.
