Why it matters: Although the legendary Star Wars flight sim X-Wing and its sequels have been available on Steam and GOG for some time, playing them on modern PCs can still prove tricky. A new mod simplifies the process while adding numerous optional visual and gameplay enhancements. X-Wing Virtual Machine (XWVM) is now available in Alpha, allowing Windows and Linux users to apply modern quality-of-life features to the classic 90s flight sim Star Wars: X-Wing. The milestone follows a decade of d

Time to Rethink PostgreSQL Storage Burak Yucesoy Principal Software Engineer Cloud storage was built around the limits of old hardware. Spinning hard drives (HDDs) were slow and fragile. So, early on cloud providers moved storage off of servers. They used network-attached disks to boost durability and scalability. But hardware has evolved. Today, you can get 2.5 million IOPS from a $600 NVMe SSD [1]. By contrast, pushing 2.5 million IOPS through Aurora would cost you $1.3M per month. With NVMe

When dealing with disks and I/O things on Linux, you’d regularly run commands like lsblk , lsscsi , nvme list , etc. All of them tend to report a different set of information, so I ended up running multiple commands and correlating their output based on the device name or number.

More and more people are turning to in vitro fertilization, or IVF, to have babies. The process can be arduous, requiring injections of costly hormones twice a day for two weeks to mature eggs so that they can be retrieved from the body. New York startup Gameto is aiming to ease this burden for patients by maturing eggs outside the body instead. The company’s method replaces 80 percent of the hormone injections needed for traditional IVF, shortening the length of a treatment cycle to a few days
