So I have been having quite a bit of fun learning about eBPF. It’s been on my todo list for like two or three years, but I’ve finally made the time to actually start to figure it out, and have already found some neat stuff, and had to do some fun hacking. Let’s set the stage. eBPF is an instrumentation and tracing system built into Linux (and Windows these days!).

NASA's Voyager 1, the furthest spacecraft from Earth, simply refuses to die. In a recent update, the space agency revealed that the little probe that could has once again sputtered back to life thanks to some remote magic done on its thrusters from 15 billion miles away. Launched nearly 50 years ago, just after its twin craft Voyager 2, the probe has been plummeting through interstellar space for decades at speeds of more than 38,000 miles per hour. Along with discovering new moons and rings o

The Soviet space program had a lot of hope riding on the Cosmos 482 mission when it launched in March 1972. The mission included a lander destined for Venus. The spacecraft never made it out of Earth orbit -- and now it's coming home, but not in a good way. The lander probe is expected back around May 10. Should you be worried? "Because the probe was designed to withstand entry into the Venus atmosphere, it is possible the probe (or parts of it) will survive reentry at Earth and reach the surf

Back in December, Elon Musk accused the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of launching a purely politically motivated probe into his Twitter purchase. In a letter from his lawyer, Alex Spiro, Musk alleged that the SEC gave him 48 hours to accept a settlement or face fraud charges. Musk refused to pay the fine, demanding to know "who directed these actions," suspecting either former SEC Chair Gary Gensler or Joe Biden's White House. Once the SEC lawsuit was filed in January, Musk's condem
