I'm a big fan of this explanation/rant from Andrew Murphy.

Taken as a whole, there are many bottlenecks in a corporate software development process. The "load-bearing" calendar is a great example!

Speeding up code creation just increases pressure on the bottleneck, which decreases throughput.

AI coding tools are optimising the wrong thing and nobody wants to hear it. Writing code was already fast. The bottleneck is everything else: unclear requirements, review queues, terrified deploy cultures, and an org chart that needs six meetings to decide what colour the button should be.

[$] A safer kmalloc() for 7.0

Nobody on LinkedIn has ever had a bad day. Every setback is a "growth opportunity." Every firing is a "new chapter." Every complete professional disaster is framed as "excited to announce." These people would describe the Titanic as "a bold pivot to submarine operations."

Daran sollten sich auch die Hochschulen hierzulande ein Beispiel nehmen, denn sie geben jährlich hunderte Millionen an Lizenzkosten für proprietäre Software aus und jammern zeitgleich über Budgetknappheit.

Brilliant idea of systemd to apply sysctl settings from configuration files ignoring their folders and the Debian Kernel team to put defaults in a "/usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-default.conf" file.

Why 50 and not 00? I have all my settings in a "/etc/sysctl.d/10-custom.conf" file. One of them was mysteriously erased by those defaults in a file starting with a higher name hidden in the system files.

Now I understand why all configuration files are prefixed by "zzz".
