I've published a new blog post on real-time Linux CPU throttling. These are the results of a very interesting study done with one of our Automotive partners where we worked through some inter-process communication latency concerns.

I've been using Linux recently and the smugness it makes me feel is divine. You guys raved about everything except the smugness. You should lead with that next time you sell it to the mainstream

It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation.

"Alpha male" implies to me that you're barely better than a prototype and we should expect significant bugs in your programming. It also means you aren't yet ready for the public and still need time to mature.

The government collected $82m annually from Trump's washing machine tariff (paid by the importers), and consumers paid $1.5b more. Americans paid $815k per job created. Tariffs are garbage and don't work the way you may think.
