Project mention: Nvtop: Linux Task Monitor for Nvidia, AMD and Intel GPUs | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-12its not a terminal app like bottom or nvtop but I use https://github.com/exelban/stats and it has iGPU stats
Project mention: ArchiveBox: Open-source self-hosted web archiving | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-11For anyone who uses Chrome and wants to view their archived pages in the browser as if they were still online (URL and everything intact), and also full-text search through their browsing history that was archived (like AB plans to add in future, I think, right nikki?) you can check out DownloadNet: https://github.com/dosyago/DownloadNet
You can have multiple archives, and even use a mode where you only archive pages you bookmark rather than everything.
Also `dua`[0] is a great `du` replacement which is must faster on modern NVMe drives. Also has an interactive mode `dua i` which I'd frame as a `ncdu` replacement.

The article describes that the new JIT is a "copy-and-patch JIT" (I've previously heard this called a "splat JIT"). This is a relatively simple JIT architecture where you have essentially pre-compiled blobs of machine code for each interpreter instruction that you patch immediate arguments into by copying over them.
I once wrote an article about very simple JITs, and the first example in my article uses this style: https://blog.reverberate.org/2012/12/hello-jit-world-joy-of-...
I take some issue with this statement, made later in the article, about the pros/cons vs a "full" JIT:
> The big downside with a “full” JIT is that the process of compiling once into IL and then again into machine code is slow. Not only is it slow, but it is memory intensive.
I used to think this was true also, because my main exposure to JITs was the JVM, which is indeed memory-intensive and slow.
But then in 2013, a miraculous thing happened. LuaJIT 2.0 was released, and it was incredibly fast to JIT compile.
LuaJIT is undoubtedly a "full" JIT compiler. It uses SSA form and performs many optimizations (https://github.com/tarantool/tarantool/wiki/LuaJIT-Optimizat...). And yet feels no more heavyweight than an interpreter when you run it. It does not have any noticeable warm up time, unlike the JVM.
Ever since then, I've rejected the idea that JIT compilers have to be slow and heavyweight.

One would be Roadkil's app: https://www.roadkil.net/program.php?ProgramID=29 Another would be TestDisk over at CGSecurity: https://www.cgsecurity.org/
What hard drives are you using? Some don't like the hdparm function which is what I believe OMV/Debian use to govern hd spindown. If you're on Seagate Exos drives, for example, those drives don't work with hdparm. I had to use hd-idle for mine: https://github.com/adelolmo/hd-idle
Project mention: RecuperaBit: A tool for forensic file system reconstruction | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-07
Project mention: ExFAT Driver Boasts Much Faster "Dirsync" Performance with Linux 6.9 | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-21The note about the partition table makes me wonder how he was formatting the drive. https://github.com/JElchison/format-udf specifically does some partition table related hacks to make UDF maximally compatible with different platforms.
