The "NTFS Resurrection" Has Occurred For Linux 7.1

As a very exciting follow-up to the recent article around the new NTFS driver being submitted for Linux 7.1 to address the shortcomings of the current Paragon NTFS3 driver and the prior read-only NTFS kernel driver, that work has been merged!

Healthchecks.io Now Uses Self-hosted Object Storage

Healthchecks.io ping endpoints accept HTTP HEAD, GET, and POST request methods. When using HTTP POST, clients can include an arbitrary payload in the request body. Healthchecks.io stores the first 100kB of the request body. If the request body is tiny, Healthchecks.io stores it in the PostgreSQL database. Otherwise, it stores it in S3-compatible object storage.

[RFC PATCH 0/10] ftrfs: Fault-Tolerant Radiation-Robust Filesystem - Aurelien DESBRIERES

Website backup crippled by 1.6MB Friends GIF that was replicated 246,173 times, breaking Linux's EXT4 filesystem limit — Jennifer Aniston's 'happy dance' animation ate up 377 gigabytes of data due to security policy

Admins were not happy. Initial attempts to resolve the issue by replacing files with hardlinks also failed due to ext4’s 65,000 hardlink limit.

Btrfs | Internals for Interns

In the previous article , we explored XFS—a filesystem built for extreme scale that divides the disk into independent Allocation Groups, each with its own B+ trees for free space, inodes, and extent tracking. XFS, like every filesystem we’ve covered in this series, shares one fundamental characteristic with ext4, NTFS, and FAT32: it modifies data in place. When you update a block, the new data overwrites the old data at the same disk location.
