you silly orange idiot, beer is already too expensive...

@mitchellh is it powerful enough to open a URL yet?

Ghostty now has a keybinding system powerful enough to enable a "vim mode." This is built by composing multiple Ghostty features together, meaning you can create any modes you want (emacs, tmux, whatever). We'll keep adding more bindings to make these even more powerful!

@filpizlo @LundukeJournal The fact that Fil-C isn’t more popular is because for Rust people, it was never really about “memory safety”.

The Reston National Golf Course's proposed redevelopment was *not* included in the 2025 Comprehensive Plan Amendment Work Program adopted by the Board of Supervisors today. I want to thank the hundreds who attending meetings, sent emails, called my office — you have been heard.

@sudarshan @jpountz @mikemccand mike already ruled out stuff such as java version and code, so it was clear it was in his OS packages. its pretty much a given it will be the kernel one, so I looked at the log for anything suspicious. This CONFIG_HZ has always been a bikeshed and he has tons of cpus

@rcmuir @jpountz @mikemccand What about the performance regression made you suspect it was an issue with the scheduler?

There has been a big regression in Lucene's nightly benchmarks recently after a kernel upgrade. @mikemccand and @rcmuir found that it was caused by a change in the Linux scheduler configuration. #issuecomment-2889212582" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">github.com/apache/lucene/…

@sudarshan @jpountz @mikemccand scrolled thru the git log at the bar

@jpountz @mikemccand @rcmuir @rcmuir How did you figure out that the Linux scheduler configuration change was the root cause?

I wanted to share what I learned from Tantivy's "Search Benchmark, the Game", so I set up GitHub pages and wrote two blogs, on general observations on the benchmark jpountz.github.io/2025/05/12/ana… and how it helped drive performance improvements in Lucene jpountz.github.io/2025/04/12/why…
