deltaci··on Graviton 3, Apple M2 and Qualcomm 8cx 3rd gen: a URL parsing benchmark
It's a benchmark of GitHub Actions(Azure) vs a really old Macbook Pro 15, not exactly what you are looking for, but it tells the vibe already.

deltaci··on Fast CI with MicroVMs
congratulations on the launch. it looks pretty much like a self-hosted version of https://buildjet.com/for-github-actions
deltaci··on We Halved Go Monorepo CI Build Time
It's amazing to see big company can throw so much engineering effort into it, while for majority of the CI users, just getting a 2x faster CI machine can achieve the same outcome with much less cost.

deltaci··on Ask HN: What is the best jurisdiction for internationally distributed teams?
Estonia is also a really good choice within EU. With their digital residency card, everything can be managed online with digital signatures only.
deltaci··on Yes, PHP is faster than C#
this is very naive reimplentation of the C# version. I managed to reduce the runtime of the same file from 5.7 seconds to just 800ms

    using var file = File.OpenRead("file.bin");
    var counter = 0;
    var sw = Stopwatch.StartNew();
    var buf = new byte[4096];
    while (file.Read(buf,0,buf.Length) > 0)
    {
        foreach (var t in buf)
        {
            if (t == '1')
            {
                counter++;
            }
        }
    }

    sw.Stop();
    Console.WriteLine($"Counted {counter:N0} 1s in {sw.Elapsed.TotalMilliseconds:N4} milliseconds");
deltaci··on Yes, PHP is faster than C#
You just need to do File.OpenRead instead of OpenText to get a FileStream, then you can read the buffer
deltaci··on Yes, PHP is faster than C#
but it makes function calls, it's not neglectable as it's called as many time as the bytes the file has
deltaci··on Cloud Provider Performance Comparison – Perl and More
A similar comparison on CI workloads between desktop CPUs and Cloud(Azure) here: https://buildjet.com/for-github-actions/blog/a-performance-r...
deltaci··on Amazon Elastic File System Update – Sub-Millisecond Read Latency
most of the latency comes from network layer. my naiive guess is they probably switched from a standard ethernet setup to a infiniband setup to achieve 600us of total latency.

can someone explain in layman terms what is headless UI?
deltaci··on Apple’s new M1 Pro and M1 Max processors
newer MacBooks have both the SSD and RAM soldered on board, it's no longer user upgradable, unless you have a BGA rework station and knows how to operate it.
