URL: https://mnt.io/articles/about-memory-pressure-lock-contention-and-data-oriented-design/
I illustrate how _Data-oriented Design_ helped to remove annoying memory pressure and lock contention in multiple sorters used in the Matrix Rust SDK. It has improved the execution by 98.7% (53ms to 676µs) and the throughput by 7718.5% (from 18K elem/s to 1.4M elem/s)! I will talk about how the different memories work, how we want to make the CPU caches happy, and how we can workaround locks when they are a performance bottleneck.

<br><h2>Synopsis</h2>
<p>In my head quite often there are ideas that I would like to implement, they are both in the field of hardware and in the field of software. Often they remain unstarted because someone has already implemented them.</p>
<p>Once again I have a new idea - a project of a handheld printer which would consist of a color printer cartridge and optical flow sensor (the same which is installed in an optical mouse) in a compact case. My idea was that it would print by moving this whole construction over a sheet of paper. A genius idea, and... it already turned out to be implemented, for example here: <a href="https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/princube-the-world-s-smallest-mobile-color-printer#/" target="_blank">PrintCube</a>.</p>
<p>Okay, let this particular idea has already been implemented, but many more interesting things can be done based on printing:</p>

Whale songs were first noticed by accident, when analysts tracking Russian submarines at the height of the cold war heard cetacean interference instead. An engineer sent some recordings to Roger Payne, a biologist friend of his, who did something that proved pivotal: he played the hours-long recordings on his hi-fi at home, while he went about his day.
By listening for hours at a time, Payne noticed that these vocalizations weren’t simple chirps, but complex structured social patterns — songs, even.

URL: https://max-inden.de/post/fast-udp-io-in-firefox/
Motivation
Around 20% of Firefox’s HTTP traffic today uses HTTP/3, which runs over QUIC, which in turn runs over UDP.
This translates to substantial UDP I/O activity.
Firefox uses NSPR for most of its network I/O.
When it comes to UDP I/O, NSPR only offers a limited set of dated APIs, most relevant here PR_SendTo and PR_RecvFrom, wrappers around POSIX’s sendto and recvfrom.
The N in NSPR stands for Netscape, giving you a hint of its age.

The International Bartenders Association, or IBA, maintains a list of official cocktails, ones they deem to be “the most requested recipes” at bars all around the world. It’s the closest thing the bartending industry has to a canonical list of cocktails, akin to the American Kennel Club’s registry of dog breeds or a jazz musician’s Real Book of standards.

The MPTCP protocol is complex, mainly to be able to survive on the Internet where middleboxes such as NATs, firewalls, IDS or proxies can modify parts of the TCP packets. Worst case scenario, an MPTCP connection should fallback to “plain” TCP. Today, such fallbacks are rarer than before – probably because MPTCP has been used since 2013 on millions of Apple smartphones worldwide – but they can still exist, e.g. on some mobile networks using Performance Enhancing Proxies (PEPs) where MPTCP connections are not bypassed. In such cases, a solution to continue benefiting from MPTCP is to tunnel the MPTCP connections. Different solutions exist, but they usually add extra layers, and requires setting a virtual private network (VPN) up with private IP addresses between the client and the server. Here, a simpler solution is presented: TCP-in-UDP. This solution relies on eBPF, doesn’t add extra data per packet, and doesn’t require a virtual private network. Read on to find out more about that!

A recent change to 1.1.1.1 accidentally altered the order of CNAME records in DNS responses, breaking resolution for some clients. This post explores the technical root cause, examines the source code of affected resolvers, and dives into the inherent ambiguities of the DNS RFCs.

Every few years, a new solution pops up promising the same dream: keep your CUDA codebase target AMD (and maybe other accelerators) no source rewrite no HIP porting “native performance” On paper, that sounds perfect. Take your existing CUDA applications, swap out the toolchain, and suddenly you’re “portable.” And to…

Review: It's a history text, not a CS text
I’ve written before about building microsecond-accurate NTP servers with Raspberry Pi and GPS PPS, and more recently about revisiting the setup in 2025. Both posts focused on the hardware setup and basic configuration to achieve sub-microsecond time synchronization using GPS Pulse Per Second (PPS) signals. But there was a problem. Despite having a stable PPS […]

For two centuries, the credential system gave intelligence a route to heritable capital. Artificial intelligence is closing that route. This essay builds the argument from first principles - with probability theory, interactive simulations, and a prediction specific enough to be falsifiable - and puts a number on the window that remains.
