How do these federated forges deal with spam? If merge requests and issues are federated, does that mean that anybody running a radicle node (or interacting with one) can open issues or merge requests on all the repositories that you've made public? Or is there a whitelist (or something fancier?) to allow interaction only with specified nodes?

Okay, good to hear on both counts. Thanks!

Oddly specific question, but can anybody confirm whether the AX210 (no vPro) wifi works with the AMD motherboards? I've seen some pretty bad reports about the realtek chip they're defaulting to on the AMD systems, and I already have the AX210, so if I could just keep using it, that would be ideal.

Okay, good to know it's being considered. For a non-optimized diff then (zfs-diff, which just prints which files have changed, not what about them have changed), it would be the same approach? Scan all the metadata looking for keys with versions between the two snapshots, and print out the associated file names? Would that simple approach be likely to be faster than whatever rsync does to find updated files when doing a backup?

Speaking of snapshots, are you planning to have analogs to ZFS's send/recv and diff? I didn't see any mention of them on the snapshots page or the roadmap, but I could be looking in the wrong place. Already having reflink support is exciting though; a ZFS replacement that can also do reflinks would be amazing.

You can click the timestamp on a post, and then click the "favorite" link, and that'll add the comment to your favorites list (which I think would be https://news.ycombinator.com/favorites?id=whynotminot&commen... for you).

I've personally seen as low as 30ms, but also up to 60ms. I also have a bit of packet loss, but my dish is just sitting on the ground in my wooded back yard right now. Once the weather turns back towards just being cold, I'm going to move the dish to my roof and see if that helps the packet loss. Maybe being able to see more of the sky will help get a more consistent latency too, but I'd guess more satellites are really going to be the fix there.

New comment by tsuraan in "GHC 9.0, supporting linear types"

tsuraan — Wed, 30 Dec 2020 20:47:22 +0000

A specific safety article was written up by tweag.io, who wrote a pretty slick set of java bindings. Managing resources between two garbage collectors (ghc and jvm) is error-prone, so they used linear types to help prevent a bunch of the things a person can easily mess up. Their article is pretty good: https://www.tweag.io/blog/2020-02-06-safe-inline-java/

I don't personally do this, but if you're taking scheduled snapshots of your ZFS filesystems, you could also have a scheduled job (say, nightly) that emails you a "zfs diff" [0] between the current snapshot and the one from 24 hours ago. It won't tell you that you've been hit by malware, but an unexpected spike in changes could be something worth investigating.

https://cloud.google.com/edge-tpu/ has a "Buy" button that leads to https://coral.ai/products/ . They appear to be available for purchase?

edit: reading more on the edge-tpu page, they definitely appear to be of limited use compared with the ones available to google's hosted plans.

New comment by tsuraan in "Kexecboot: Linux-As-a-Bootloader implementation based on kexec"

tsuraan — Sun, 03 Nov 2019 15:40:14 +0000

Somewhat; if your system boots through EFI (as opposed to the ancient BIOS boot), then you can compile your kernel with the EFI_STUB option[0]. That kernel can be placed in EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi (or whatever you've configured your EFI to boot), and the EFI boot loader will run it without any other boot loader. IME, this goes very well with a built-in initramfs (INITRAMFS_SOURCE[1]), so you have a single-file kernel and ramfs that boots directly from EFI.

It's not much tinkering at all. Once you've installed powertop (probably just "dnf install powertop" or "apt install powertop", or whatever your favorite flavour is), you can just run "sudo powertop --auto-tune"[0]. If you do like to tinker, you could maybe write your own init script to run that on boot, but your distro probably included one already.

> That's as opposed to "validated" ECC support in, say, AMD's Threadripper platform. In that case, if a company builds and markets a motherboard as compatible with Threadripper, and it lacks ECC support, they can expect to receive a nasty letter from AMD's legal team.

Are you sure about that? I'm only asking because the System76 Threadripper Thelio[0] doesn't support ECC (according to the response I received from their support people). Their response was actually that "Threadripper and our motherboard do not offer ECC" (TR obviously does support it though), but is it the case that they're actually contractually obligated to support ECC?
