Protoplanetary Disks Are Smaller Than Expected In astronomy, the first thing you see may be the least typical. A case in point: ‘Hot Jupiters.’ A few prescient souls, among them Buzz Aldrin and John Barnes in their novel Encounter with Tiber, speculated about gas giants that survived incredibly tight orbits around their star, and when asked about this in the 1990s, Greg Matloff ran the numbers and confirmed to his surprise that there was a theoretical case for their existence. Let me quote Matl

Let's take a look at how disk I/O can be a bottleneck in GitHub Actions. Disk I/O bottlenecks are easy to overlook when analyzing CI pipeline performance, but tools like iostat and fio can help shed a light on what might be slowing down your pipelines more than you know.

One name is very often left out from this list; the person who in the end put it all together and created the master sent to duplication. A master is a finished product where all the duplicates are made f

My teen years: The transputer operating system In my previous article I talked about how I managed to create a self-contained operating system for transputer. This included the basic operating system, a text editor, a Small-C compiler, and an assembler. The year was 1995, I was age 16, Lemon Tree and Zombie were being played in the radio, ARPANET closed around 1990, and it started to be known as Internet, and in Mexico only a handful of people used it through Compuserve Mexico. I wasn't so luc

Hyperspace February 25, 2025 at 10:00 AM by John Siracusa My interest in file systems started when I discovered how type and creator codes1 and resource forks contributed to the fantastic user interface on my original Macintosh in 1984. In the late 1990s, when it looked like Apple might buy Be Inc. to solve its operating system problems, the Be File System was the part I was most excited about. When Apple bought NeXT instead and (eventually) created Mac OS X, I was extremely enthusiastic about
