I was thinking of buying a backpack at the employer mall, but the shipping + taxes cost $95 for $100 a product.

I know international shipping is expensive but buying this doesn't make sense :(

A quick update after a while:

I'm in my final semester as a senior (bachelor's) now. Have been super busy these past few months working on my paper while doing a NVIDIA SWE internship. Still bit busy juggling job hunting, the internship, and my graduation project. But things are much better now since the paper is finally submitted.

Lately I've been applying for jobs and doing interviews, trying to become a professional kernel developer (lol, turns out there aren't as many kernel developer jobs as I thought). If it doesn't work out, well... it is what it is :D I don't have a backup plan for that.

I guess a lru_ext proposal is only a question of time now? Maybe even oom_ext although the userspace oomd's might be sufficient.

THIS IS IT!!!

The last hurdle for PREEMPT_RT being merged into mainline has just removed by this pull request. Leaving the door open for PREEMPT_RT to be added to 6.12!

There are a few remaining things I want to learn while I'm still an undergraduate:
Compilers, Electronic Circuit and VLSI

The latter two are tough and confusing...

OK, here's a take for you:

PDFs are not a document format. Instead, as they encapsulate an executable (postscript) and a set of resources that are accessed in a sandboxed environment, they constitute a container.

Announcing : Streamlining performance optimization

"'"bpftop provides a dynamic real-time view of running eBPF programs. It displays the average execution runtime, events per second, and estimated total CPU % for each program. This tool minimizes overhead by enabling performance statistics only while it is active."'"

Good bye Purdue University!

It has been so intense, now suffering from jet lag and getting back to real life.

My friend told me to play Minecraft together (It's been 4 years since last played) but I can't because Microsoft threw away my Mojang account 😠 😠

```As of December 18, 2023, the post-migration process for Mojang accounts has officially ended```

Yesterday, my internship finally finished. It was fun and inspiring to look at a project (QEMU) other than Linux, and learn how PCIe/CXL/ACPI/UEFI works in general.

Now trying to do some work (a little) on CXL emulation in QEMU, though I'm not sure how far I want to pursue as my heart is still in MM.

This link captures the confusion about how to pronounce "fsck":

https://lwn.net/Articles/190223/

Here's the truth. Ted Kowalski, username frodo, may he rest in peace, was the original author, just down the hall from my office in Murray Hill, and his name for the program had a 'u' where there is now an 's'. Management made him change it for distribution, but they couldn't make him change his pronunciation.

Interesting post from the Android Rust compiler team:

https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2023/12/faster-rust-toolchains-for-android.html

Seems to line up with my benchmarks for performing a lot of the same optimization techniques to LLVM and clang and it is cool to see the amount of savings that this translates to for CI. Reminds me that I should look at integrating my kernel.org LLVM builds into tuxmake so that we can use them with tuxsuite…
