What’s with the sticky scrolling on this site? (Safari at least)

or DSL router

Any DSL modem recommendations?

Several academies at least have rooms in constant red with doors windows opened

Great except they are being ignored

EDIT; being downvoted for sharing what is actually happening on the ground

In my opinion it feels like regulation has gone from serving a purpose (we will review a to protect b) to the default standard (we will deeply review a-z because it is ‘best practice’).

Indeed, with an empirically observed reduced likelihood

They are another host to store, mutate and retransmit

The first principle is that you must not fool yourself — and you are the easiest person to fool.

If it disagrees with experiment, it’s wrong. In that simple statement is the key to science.

Owned a 90 once, fun and interesting but overly romanticised vehicle I think.

I’m surprised this has made into the mainline kernel, it feels like it is a niche use case. Perhaps cloud provider pressure?

What is Fusion providing that Parallels doesn’t already?

Article is 2012.

Edit: please add (2012) to the title.

Master the Mainframe usually is around this time of the year, recommend it.

Tangential but I find more recent narrower iPhones to have made quick accurate typing almost impossible for me, would swap back to a 7+ if it was suitable.

“Hyper-threaded” - this is Intel terminology, probably should state SMT?

Thanks. Any references on how this works?

From the article “In previous versions of Windows, the scheduler had to rely on analysing the programs on its own, inferring performance requirements of a thread but with no real underlying understanding of what was happening.”

Does anyone know what is meant by the scheduler analyses the program?

How long have IBM been doing MCM ?

LPARs are like full VMs on POWER/AIX, they run atop the Power VM hypervisor

100% agree they always have worked in my experience too, still have the pleasure of occasional use of POWER7/8. I always recommended POWER/AIX for reliable compute where budget and s/w compatibility allowed.

This architecture; CPs, ZAAPs, IFLs, IOs etc are compelling to me along with the minimal OS, DB layers with a development setup that feels only just capable, albeit at a cost to the development effort. It feels efficient from a compute perspective? Today in distributed land we have libraries built on libraries built on OS services and API layers with other stuff we don’t need all to do some basic date math for example, how many cycles did we use to do that, maybe it was easier during the one off development process, was it worth it.

I wonder how many CPU cycles we burn running the many layers of abstraction we have built in the distributed computing world.. does this performance penalty exist in the mainframe world

Zowe and Z Open Editor for integration into Z/OS datasets and UNIX services and support for native datasets and file type editing.

Root causes of the perceived mainframe problem as I see it are:

1. It’s difficult to obtain skilled personnel, that’s it.

Why, because you can only truly learn mainframe technologies on a mainframe. Hercules and all the things that IBM have done themselves such as MTM, VS Code extensions are not enough. The barrier to learn mainframe technologies is too high.

Hope it has correct RS232 voltages.

Yes I agree. I choose to ignore that little Easter Egg.

Yes gave up it’s too awkward to read.

It doesn’t work fine, UI resolution restricted, sticking cursor issues, no parallel tools available
