MicroSD cards seem to be the preferred storage for Raspberry Pis and many other SBCs. Of course, there's other applications for microSD cards -- cameras, smart phones, gaming consoles...and other stuff I'm sure. But sooner or later, people start to run into issues with their microSD cards, which begs a question -- just how reliable are they? When I first started searching around for an answer, I got a range of different answers -- some people said "modern flash should last practically forever";

If the adoption of AI feels different from any tech revolution you may have experienced before — mobile, social, cloud computing — it actually is.

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.

Though BGP supports the traditional Flow-based Layer 3 Equal Cost Multi-Pathing (ECMP) traffic load balancing method, it is not the best fit for a RoCEv2-based AI backend network. This is because GPU-to-GPU communication creates massive elephant flows, which RDMA-capable NICs transmit at line rate. These flows can easily cause congestion in the backend network. In ECMP, all packets of a single flow follow the same path. If that path becomes congested, ECMP does not adapt or reroute traffic. Thi
