German Navy blasts out Darth Vader theme on Thames

Londoners spotted this ship on the Thames near Tower Bridge, playing the iconic Imperial March theme from the Star Wars trilogies, otherwise recognisable as the Darth Vader music. But it wasn’t coming from a galaxy far, far away – it was a German Navy ship, in London for training and a supply stop. A spokesperson […]
Async2 – The .NET Runtime Async experiment concludes

The .NET team has been working on a new experiment called async2, which is a new implementation of the async/await pattern that is designed to be more efficient and more flexible than the current implementation. It started with green threads and ended with an experiment that moves async and await to the runtime. This post […]
Second human being implanted with Neuralink brain chip

Alex enjoys building things. Before his spinal cord injury, he worked as an automotive technician, fixing and tinkering with various types of vehicles and large machinery. Since then, he has wanted to learn how to design 3D objects using computer-aided design (CAD) software so he could work on projects without needing to rely extensively on […]
No “Hello”, No “Quick Call”, and No Meetings Without an Agenda

Hi, You probably received a link to this website because you did one of the common mistakes of working remotely: You started a conversation by writing “Hi”, or “Hello”, or even maybe “Good morning Sebastian, I have a question”.

Haiku OS [GSoC 2024] Hardware Virtualization: Final Report
![haiku-os-[gsoc-2024]-hardware-virtualization:-final-report](https://cdn-y.objects.dc-sto1.glesys.net/A1da965d3ac0f2e44c08f1ae072687d311/uploads/2024/08/436920-haiku-os-gsoc-2024-hardware-virtualization-final-report-1024x639.png)
Project overview QEMU is a virtual machine which allows running an operating system inside of another. While there already is a Haiku port, it currently does not support any acceleration system through native virtualization (through Intel VT-x and AMD SVM.) This makes it too slow for many uses. This project aimed to bring hardware virtualization […]
Ethernet History Deepdive – Why Do We Have Different Frame Types?

In my previous post Encapsulation of PDUs On Trunk Ports, I showed what happens to PDUs when you change the configuration of a trunk. You may have noticed that there are typically three different types of Ethernet encapsulations that we see: Ethernet II. 802.2 LLC. 802 SNAP. Historically, there were even more than three, but […]
