✨ Announcing Aya, a new eBPF library for Rust ✨ confused.ai/posts/announci… #rustlang #ebpf
It’s funny that by far the worst thing about rust perf wise is that llvm is terrible at eliding copies on moves but the “rust is slow” crowd never brings it up because they’re all larping
This was fun thanks a lot @0xIchigo! Also made me realize sometimes when I ramble I sound like Trump? Bullish I guess?
I sat down with @alessandrod, the man making the fastest blockchain in existence even faster From his GStreamer roots to working with XDP, he explains how four engineers are out-shipping entire organizations on the @heliuslabs blog: helius.dev/blog/solana-pe…
setup switching between internal sched and pack. it's so easy, and i'm pumped for how quick deploying changes is going to become. not packing in this example, just logging status messages from scheduler & received tpu packets. switch to, from, and back to all within 10 seconds.
Icing or not icing the boys doesn't seem to affect how often you get laid. Disappointing but we'll keep trying.
Icing your boys in the sauna is a good idea. Experiment #1: + sauna icing the boys improved fertility markers Experiment #2: + no ice devastated fertility markers Experiment #3: + icing again is healing the harm My results explained and what to do🧵
disappointed Brian, I thought this was going to be about a "breakthrough" in colonoscopy tech
Blueprint has been a pain in my ass. It's kept me from not focusing on the single thing I’m consumed with: how does the human race survive the rise of super intelligence. Every minute spent dealing with problems like ‘why a supplier shipped us something out-of-spec’ (now…
we don't all buy our clothes at target and just shove them in dusty dryers, Sonny
“Americans love exaggerating European poverty. Anyway, why don’t they just use clotheslines like early 20th century peasants?”
hearing rumors that sending to tpu is the most reliable way to land a tx. i've been told for years that this is impossible
this has been achieved externally with no secret sauce sub-1% drop rate, p95 latency <1 slot
what if you did not in fact need to use every tx landing service to get in. what if you didn't need to use one at all?
building in public and open sourcing your work makes everything move way faster.
Tell me when they’ve fixed grok y’all aren’t serious people
Aaand merged. Go follow @zbr0wn he promised if y'all follow him he's gonna start tweeting like a normal person
From "shall we do banking/broadcast XDP?" to pull request in 1.5 days. We're out-shippiiing
Have you ever been like "wow solana is so cool. what is the probability that a node sends a gossip message to another node? I bet the logic is simple and elegant and so cool"? Well look no further. See below: 👇 also 🧵
The @anza_xyz team have been going batsh*t crazy. One of the most capable engineering teams in the world, motivated by one thing: IBRL. Some unfiltered thoughts, and why @solana is going to continue winning 👇
