In 2012, I created Jedi—a Python auto-completion library that eventually reached millions of users and billions of downloads. But as the ecosystem evolved, one limitation became clear: speed. Jedi’s architecture couldn’t deliver the performance needed for large-scale projects. In 2020, I started over—with everything I’d learned—building ZubanLS from the ground up in Rust. After five years of full-time work, ZubanLS is now the first truly fast Python language server. ZubanLS is built for profes

Ubuntu disables Intel GPU security mitigations, promises 20% performance boost

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-02-22 22:39:19

Ubuntu users could see up to a 20-percent boost in graphics performance on Intel-based systems under a change that will turn off security mitigations for blunting a class of attacks known as Spectre. Spectre, you may recall, first came to public notice in 2018. Spectre attacks are based on the observation that performance enhancements built into modern CPUs open a side channel that can leak secrets a CPU is processing. The performance enhancement, known as speculative execution, predicts future

China's first gaming GPU, the Lisuan G100, performs like a 13-year-old Nvidia GTX 660 Ti

Facepalm: China recently unveiled its first gaming GPU, the Lisuan G100. Built on a 6nm process, the card was touted as a potential rival to Nvidia's RTX 4060. However, a recent Geekbench listing suggests its performance is closer to that of the 13-year-old GeForce GTX 660 Ti or the 10-year-old Radeon R9 370. The listing also appears to reveal shockingly anemic specifications, including just 32 Compute Units, 256 MB of VRAM, and a 300 MHz GPU clock. Overall, the card managed a score of only 15,

Gigabyte Radeon RX 9060 XT Review: Great Value Gaming

It's AMD's turn. After months of $2,000+ GPUs and long discussions of DLSS, we're finally on the red team's turf. AMD's strength historically lies at the budget end of the spectrum, where the majority of gamers are playing at 1080p, and spending $1,000 or less for their entire system. Even though we really recommend splurging on a GPU, that's just not the reality for most folks.
