If true, the SWE bench performance looks like a major upgrade.

Why not just assign across different ports? Seems like a straightforward solution.

Now that array of language expertise and distributed systems stuff is no longer impressive or a strong signal, how should I reframe my 20+ years of programming and management experience? Should I go higher level and focus only on business impact and drop the technical aspects?

Fantastic article, this really sums it up nicely.

I remember playing a black and white version of ShufflePuck Cafe on a Mac LC3 around 1992 or so. Great game, still fascinated by how the exotic characters make the game far more engaging than Pong could ever be.

I think there was a guy, Biff, he was really tough, seemingly impossible to beat (for my 10 year old self, anyhow).

I miss those days!

Maybe you don't have kids of your own. Once you have 2 or 3, it is quite challenging to manage everything, especially over time.

New comment by metadat in "Linuxulator on FreeBSD Feels Like Magic"

> After spending time on Apple’s M1/M2 Macs (coming from a large x86_64 desktop), going back to x86_64 feels like a regression, both in performance and battery life.

This seems like a flawed premise.

Battery:

Yes, MacBook battery life is really good, but only when you're not doing CPU-intensive tasks. Browsing the web, watching Tube or Netflix, it's amazing. Once you're compiling a bunch of stuff the battery performance tanks and seems just like any other notebook computer.

CPU: Intel Mac performance was horrible, M* is terrific. And so are the latest from AMD Ryzen.

Regardless, FreeBSD is a fantastic OS in so many ways!

I was wondering why the PSU is half the size of the compute unit housing. 15 years ago, sure, but today it just seems cheap and lazy on part of whoever designed it.

Caveat: I'm frequently mistaken, always keen to learn and reduce the error between my perception and reality!

And how useful would this information be? srcIP:port_dstIP:port pairs with almost all traffic encrypted. Pretty boring from a sigint pov.

Instagram, YouTube, misc Web traffic, and torrents, with a side of minutae.

I'm certain the three letter agencies yearn for the days before letsencrypt was de facto.

Why is the power supply 2x larger than a Macbool Pro PS unit? Cheap? What about GaN?
