The behavior of CPython and a few other implementations of Python (such as PyPy) is well documented and well understood. The semantics of the tiny subset of Python that this Python-to-eBPF compiler understands is not.…
Writing C for eBPF is cumbersome and you'd like to avoid it. Okay, that's reasonable. But I don't think it would be a good idea to write a compiler that emits eBPF binary from (a tiny subset of) Python. Why not just…
If you look at the code, you'll be (unpleasantly) surprised, I think. The author does not seem to have known what Y combinator is.
This reads like GPT-5 output. Anyone familiar with the model will recognize its distinctive style. While using LLM-generated content isn't inherently wrong, why not share the prompts? It's like presenting a book summary…
Has anyone used OpenTelemetry for long-running batch jobs? OTel seems designed for web apps where spans last seconds/minutes, but batch jobs run for hours or days. Since spans are only submitted after completion,…
Many companies seem to be using Apache Iceberg, but the ecosystem feels immature outside of Java. For instance, iceberg-rust doesn't even support HDFS. (Though admittedly, Iceberg's tendency to create many small files…
Regarding the stubborn and narcissistic personality of LLMs (especially reasoning models), I suspect that attempts to make them jailbreak-resistant might be a factor. To prevent users from gaslighting the LLM, trainers…
I share the author's sentiment completely. At my day job, I manage multiple Kubernetes clusters running dozens of microservices with relative ease. However, for my hobby projects—which generate no revenue and thus have…
As a relatively well-educated Japanese native speaker, I too experience this problem when writing Japanese on paper - being unable to write many kanji characters by hand. I am no exception among Japanese native…
While I acknowledge that JSON Patch can be useful in certain contexts, I find that there are far better alternatives, particularly for the scenarios I encounter. Specifically, when using kustomization.yaml to generate…
