Benchmarks in CI: Escaping the Cloud Chaos

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-02-15 00:40:05

Creating a performance gate in a CI environment, preventing significant performance regressions from being deployed has been a long-standing goal of dozens of software teams. But measuring in hosted CI runners is a particularly challenging task, mostly because of noisy neighbors leaking through virtualization layers. Still, it's worth the effort. Performance regressions are harder to catch and more expensive to fix the longer they go unnoticed. Mostly because: Catching issues in production is

Go’s race detector has a mutex blind spot

Go's race detector has a mutex blind spot 28 Jul, 2025 I recently read Ralf Jung's blog post "There is no memory safety without thread safety" which mentions that Go is not a memory safe language in the presence of data races. "But Go comes with a built in data race detector " some might say. This reminded me of a quirk in Go's dynamic data race detection that causes it to miss data races in executed code that could easily be spotted by a human .

Advice for first-time managers from someone who learned it the hard way, cleaned it up, and passed it on. Welcome to the club. You either asked for this, or someone tapped you on the shoulder and said, “Hey, you seem responsible. Wanna be in charge of other humans?” Either way, here you are. Congrats. Or condolences.

Weirdly Hot Rocks in New England Traced to 80-Million-Year-Old Greenland Rift

Roughly 124 miles (200 kilometers) beneath the Appalachian Mountains in New England lies the aptly named Northern Appalachian Anomaly (NAA), a mysterious 218-mile-wide (350-km) region of unusually hot rock. Researchers have long believed that the NAA resulted from the plate tectonic movement that broke North America off northwest Africa 180 million years ago.

Ordering wine can feel like a performance if you're not a seasoned sipper.

But that initial sample isn't about taste at all. It's a quality check. That first pour is your chance to make sure the wine hasn't gone bad.
