computer enthusiast: modern and retro

happy that so many smart, creative people exist in this world

@thomholwerda any HP-UX updates?
Just want to point out that breaking video output due to ABI with an OS point release upgrade is just as bad as breaking a filesystem driver. Computing is complex, and complexity is hard. No amount of OS zealotry gets around that. #freebsd #linux
LOL at people hand-wringing about Biden or anyone else violating “norms,” like that opens some imaginary door for Trump. He has never cared about norms and there are NO lines he won’t cross.
What is real-world use case for macOS virtualization on Apple Silicon? There are all these caveats about what you can actually do with it. For a long time you couldn’t use anything requiring Apple ID but at some point I think that changed, but only above a certain OS version. And now M4 Macs can’t virtualize older that macOS 13? It all seems so janky. Do people use this for real work? Is it really just a research tool? Genuinely I would be interested in hearing peoples’ use cases. #virtualization #applesilicon #macos

Lol at VMware’s attempt to stay relevant and keep their head above water. Great, groundbreaking tech 20 years ago. Now it’s just 🤷‍♂️ as the world has moved on, despite attempts to bolt on every cloud/container thing they can. Every dog has its day, but it might be time to go to the vet
Sorry, the source for architectural notes taken at a presentation in Taiwan about ARMv9.3-A is stuck on Discord, and by the time anybody needed to cite it, will have been shut down for babyfur content in the Off-Topic channel, also posted by the person who transcribed the lecture
@NanoRaptor I made this one a while back:

Well I'm pretty sure I just found a race condition in the Linux kernel involving the fact that AX.25 probably has only ever been tested at 1200 and 9600 baud.

This post to linux-hams (https://lore.kernel.org/linux-hams/CAN[email protected]/T/#t) is the same exact problem I ran into.

I haven't tinkered in the kernel in a very long time, and as far as locking and queue interfaces, I'm probably going to need someone to point my in the right direction. If you're interested, let me know.

Duplicate and reordered frames in kernel AX.25 stack

apparently now you can run Jupyter notebooks in the browser without a server with WebAssembly using JupyterLite?? https://jupyterlite.readthedocs.io/en/stable/

I learned about this because @paddymul made a pull request to my pandas-cookbook tutorial on github to add support for it

you can try it out here, it seems to work: https://jvns.github.io/pandas-cookbook/lab/index.html
