Most developers take the operating system for granted-treating it as an invisible, obedient foundation for browsers, Docker, and heavy IDEs. For me, this foundation was always the ultimate mystery. I wanted to understand: what actually happens on the bare metal when you strip away high-level abstractions? That's how my 15-day experiment started. I carved out 100 hours from a tight schedule between school and intense martial arts training (judo and wrestling) to build a standalone, microkernel... Read more ›
BPF programs can be used to extend many aspects the Linux kernel, but BPF programs must run to completion in the same context that they began. Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi is working on changing that by allowing BPF programs to be expressed as coroutines. He spoke about his work at the 2026 . While still experimental, the change promises to make long-running BPF tasks significantly easier to write. Read more ›

The LCD7-PANEL-LIME2 is a ready-to-mount Linux touch panel computer from Olimex, based on the company’s A20-OLinuXino-LIME2 open hardware SBC. The unit combines a 7-inch capacitive touchscreen, a plastic panel-mount frame, mounting brackets, ribbon cable, and an assembled A20-based Linux board into a single package. The computer board is the A20-OLinuXino-LIME2-e16Gs16M, an open-source ARM Linux SBC built around the Allwinner A20… Read more ›
Having , the context switch between code bases is starting to become a problem. Thinking about how we can improve this going forward. Ideally each major app or platform would have someone leading it. Read more ›
Pure Effect is a zero-dependency effect library for JavaScript and TypeScript. Your business logic returns plain objects describing the I/O it would perform, instead of performing it. You can read those objects in a test or replay them from a failed production run, and the database is never touched until the interpreter runs them. Read more ›
Many people want to know, precisely, which pieces of text are valid Rust programs, and for those that are, what they do. This group includes compiler writers, language designers, researchers, unsafe code writers, safety-critical industry assessors, and of course any Rust developer trying to understand a piece of code.

We propose CHERI-D, an architectural extension to CHERI that supports efficient temporal memory safety. Efficient memory safety is an increasing priority for programming languages, operating systems, and hardware designs, and CHERI is a leading hardware/software system that provides native spatial safety and a foundation for temporal memory safety. Due to CHERI lacking intrinsic architectural support for temporal memory safety, the state-of-the-... Read more ›

“Curry’s paradox”, as the term is used by philosophers today, refers to a wide variety of paradoxes of self-reference or circularity that trace their modern ancestry to Curry (1942b) and Löb (1955).[1] The common characteristic of these so-called Curry paradoxes is the way they exploit a notion of implication, entailment, or consequence, either in the form of a connective or in the form of a predicate. Curry’s paradox arises in a number of different domains. Like Russell’s paradox, it can tak... Read more ›

Accelerating SQL query execution with GPUs is a central focus in database research. While prior systems have achieved notable speedups by offloading relational operators, the acceleration of the wide range of scalar functions that are supported by analytical engines remains unaddressed. Our analysis reveals that many scalar functions incur substantial computational overhead and often constitute the primary bottleneck in analytical queries on CPUs. Thisobservation motivates a systematic explor... Read more ›
DeepGate's model search and compiler produce models that run up to 45× faster and use up to 11× less RAM than reference models on the same microcontroller. Read more ›
In this article, we explore hardware-supported NVFP4 blockscaled GEMM on SM12x GPUs, such as the NVIDIA RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell Server Edition (SM120) or NVIDIA DGX Spark (SM121). We will first discuss features of these GPUs and their kernel programming paradigm, situating them relative to SM10x (e.g. B200 or B300) and SM8x (Ampere/Ada). Then, we will […] Read more ›
