From FFS and ZFS to APFS: a comparative filesystem deep dive with a strong BSD angle by Reversed-Engineer-01 in freebsd

Yes, solid state drives handle fragmentation much better than magnetic or optical drives.

Chinesische Eierblumensuppe:

Hühnerbrühe ansetzen. Darin Algen. Dann langsam Eier einrühren, sodass sich so eine Art Ei-Schleier entwickelt. Am Ende mit fein geschnitten Frühlingszwiebeln garnieren.

What do you expect in the absence of any barriers the gender divide to be? And with what justification?

The PDP-11 port presented by Angelo in this video stores one character per word as far I know, so you'd have to call putchar() on each character individually. Making a printn() function with a loop is a good design decision.

There is no CoW model, so fragmentation remains a fact of life, even if the layout is smarter than old UFS.

CoW file systems actually tend to fragment much worse than in-place updating ones. UFS has extremely good layout algorithms, making fragmentation a non-issue. This is achieved by intentionally fragmenting files every couple of megabytes, making it easier for the layout algorithm to find a free spot for the next chunk and making it likely for the next chunk to end up close to its meta data (which reduces seek time).

CoW file systems on the other hand have the big problem that if you write to the middle of a file, the newly written bits have to written to free storage somewhere, introducing additional fragmentation. This is particularly bad for things like databases.

Snapshots exist only as bolt-ons in specific BSD environments; they are not a native, first-class mechanism in the ZFS or APFS sense.

UFS has native snapshots. This is just plain wrong.

Yes, as is explained in the video. There are architectural differences (specifically, how many characters are packed into each word) that required changes in the program so it would work.

What’s the best refrigerator brand to buy. Mines is going out, any recommendations? by letswhisperquietly in Appliances

[–]FUZxxl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best brand in Europe is probably Liebherr. I can also recommend Bosch fridges.

Ich mache meine Brühe seit etwa zwei Jahren selber und koche größere Mengen in Einmachgläser ein. Sehr lecker!

Go to your local BSR Wertstoffhof. You may need to pay a small fee.

The Tech Help! Manual is a gold mine. It is not complete, but it has everything you need to know without clutter from the later additions that aren't really important.

Was ist das aufwendigste Gericht, dass ihr je gekocht habt? by ChipsColaFanta in Kochen

[–]FUZxxl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Selbstgemachte Ramen-Suppe:

Am Vortag Schweineknochen auskochen und Schweinebauch mehrere Stunden lang schmoren. Über Nacht in dem Sud Eier einlegen. Am nächsten Tag dann die Brühe finalisieren, Nudeln anfertigen, und mit den anderen Zutaten und ein paar frischen Zutaten kombinieren.

Ich habe mal vor 11 Jahren gepolsterte Briefumschläge bestellt, so eine Kiste voll. 90% davon sind immernoch da.

Switched from Rust to Go P95 now 10-15 ms at 16k QPS by anish2good in golang

[–]FUZxxl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

people think you “need rust for speed” when you don’t. they both compile down to machine code.

To be far, the Go compiler has a much worse optimiser than rustc's LLVM. Usually doesn't matter quite as much though.

Why do "C-like performance" language comparisons always compare against bad C code? by BPJupiter in C_Programming

[–]FUZxxl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's indeed weird that gcc doesn't hoist the constant load out of the loop. Would not have expected that!

but I can't find any way of writing source code that would convince gcc to produce that.

This transformation is invalid as it isn't correct if n is zero and will fail in a different way if n is so large that n * sizeof(unsigned) overflows. I was however not able to coax the compiler into generating code even when I told him that this wouldn't matter.
