Poison Ivy.

Cool. Now do that at the entrance to swimming pools too.

Has become a pest. Even inside. Even directly at or in the water. No matter what the signs say.

At least regarding that I miss the last millennium: no omnipresence of cameras. Not a bunch of entitled pseudo-influencers filming everything and everyone.

Or they let the houses rot, without reinvestment and now are commanding insane prices -- and what are the alternatives the next gen has?

Trusted 3rd parties I choose myself?

I trust the postal service here, more than Apple or Google. Just recently opened a bank account via their online service.

As a Debian user I find myself more in the Archwiki. Indeed one of the top resources for power users and sysadmins.

The Debian wiki has improved (from a total mess to the occasion helpful content). Sadly it's orders of magnitudes away from the rigorous approach of the Archwiki.

> Indeed one of the top resources for power users and sysadmins

Back when I was just starting out with Ubuntu, the Arch wiki was super helpful to gain better understanding of various things I came across. I think the wiki in general is useful to anyone who wants to understand things deeper, not just power users and sysadmins :)

Fail2ban has decent jails for Apache httpd. And writing a rule that matches requests to nonexistent resources is very easy -- one-liners + time based threshold. Basically you could ban differently according to the http errors they cause (e.g. bots on migrated resources: many 404 within a minute, Slowloris is visible as a lot of 408).

Jails for other web servers are obviously as easy.

The author doesn't seem to now even the basics of SLURM?

"gang scheduling" according to the official docs: https://slurm.schedmd.com/gang_scheduling.html

-- maybe I've read the docs wrong the last decade using SLURM.

Author here. I've seen the docs you linked to: Slurm uses "gang scheduling" to mean something specific (timesliced oversubscription where jobs alternate on shared resources).

I'm using the term in its broader CS sense: all-or-nothing co-scheduling of related processes across multiple processors [1]. This is the definition used across the K8s ecosystem e.g. Volcano [2], Kueue [3], and its Coscheduling plugin all define gang scheduling as "all or nothing" allocation.

I still stand by the origianl claim:

Slurm allocates multi-node jobs atomically, while vanilla K8s doesn't. its default scheduler places pods as resources become available, leading to partial allocations and deadlocks for distributed training. It's just a terminology clash. Thanks for the comment anyway.

Thanks for the clarification!

The post says Slurm supports gang scheduling, k8s doesn't (out of the box).

And why didn't one of the wealthiest companies of the world capture this themselves?

Considering the barriers they build to prevent adblockers, that doesn't shine a good light on them.

> And why didn't one of the wealthiest companies of the world capture this themselves?

Assume they did.

And the question becomes "Why didn't they come clean?" ... and much easier to answer.

Genuinely not sure what you're suggesting

I am suggesting Google did catch this.

Without vague handwaving, why do you think they would do that?

Because I can envisage no answer to the question ("why didn't one of the wealthiest companies of the world capture this themselves?").

Logical next steps: 1. European app store that has to run on Android/iPhone 2. European phone (platform) -- maybe as a joint venture of different European players / not a single company.

So, they basically say: we cannot pay back in a timeframe that's longer than our whole existence.

Sounds like somebody tries to get a lot of money for AI and won't be able to ever really deliver.
