Et tu, Cthulhu. Year of the Linux Desktop Debate. Friday, August 31st, 2012 Trackback. It’s been interesting following the recent. About the Linux Desktop and how it failed. It’s a notion that’s been around for some time - I’d say approximately since people tired of discussing whether next year was going to be the Year of the Linux Desktop. Or so Painful as it is, it’s also a notion that needs to be discussed, so we can learn from it or at least try to put it to bed. Works-for-everyone. We tend to de...

Et tu, Cthulhu. Archive for the 'Fun' Category. Wednesday, March 31st, 2010 No Comments. It’s gratifying to see GHashTable faring not-too-badly against an assortment of other hash table implementations in Nick Welch’s excellent benchmarks. I did some work on this. Previously, but there’s at least one thing that can still be done to reduce its memory footprint on 64-bit architectures. The table is a big array of structs that look like this:. Guint key hash;. Or does it have some other trick up its sleeve?

Et tu, Cthulhu. Sunday, February 15th, 2009 Trackback. The snow-shoveling I’ve been taking part in over the last couple of weeks is best described with a set of graphs:. It’s important to note that this time is measured from the moment bootchart starts until everything settles and is ready to use, easily identified in the chart as the moment where CPU activity falls to the baseline of noise from bootchartd itself. Can you get server features by just installing packages and configuring them?

Et tu, Cthulhu. Saturday, May 2nd, 2009 Trackback. Since we’re leaving the country for good (or at least for a very long time), we thought it’d be nice to do the full-on tourist thing and take a bunch of pictures - actually the only time we’ve done so in the ten years I’ve lived here - taking a little piece of Mexico with us. So Maru and I just got back from two weeks of. Non-essential travel. We’ve had an excellent time, spending the first week in the northern states of Chihuahua.

Et tu, Cthulhu. It’s not a picnic table. Sunday, April 6th, 2008 Trackback. Picture by Mike Bitzenhofer. Because I’m just as cool as Luis. For some time now, I’ve been considering the possibility of tightening the bolts on GHashTable. Or an old bicycle? Probably the latter. But who knows? So today I finally dove in and brought back some results. First off, why optimize GHashTable? Is a trivial data structure, so it should already be pretty optimal, right? Let’s take a look. Oh, the locality! And consists...

Et tu, Cthulhu. Friday, November 12th, 2010 Trackback. Maru and Paola just finished uploading their latest short movie, Frysja. And I think it turned out very well! Who needs a budget when you’ve got such great friends? It’s released under a CC license. Go see it. Sadly, we couldn’t find a way to edit it using Free Software. Maybe some other time….
