QUIC is a UDP-based transport protocol that forms the foundation of HTTP/3. It was initially developed at Google in 2012, and became an IETF standard in 2021. Work on the protocol did not stop with its standardization, however. The QUIC working group published several follow-up standards. Now, it is working on four more extensions to QUIC intended to patch over various shortcomings in the current protocol — although progress has not been quick.

Things would go a whole lot better for server designs if we had a two year or better still a four year moratorium on adding faster compute engines to

Taipy is a free framework that lets Python developers, data scientists and machine learning engineers create web applications.

By the time that the founders of Achronix, who were all techies from Cornell University, decided to found their own FPGA company twenty years ago, FPGAs

Here's how merge queue transformed the way GitHub deploys changes to production at scale, so you can do the same for your organization.

If something is fail-safe, it has been designed so that if one part of it does not work, the whole thing does not become dangerous…

Rönd is a lightweight container that distributes security policy enforcement throughout your application.

Arista’s new network observability software aims to reduce human error, accelerate problem resolution, and streamline root cause analysis of network events and their impact on application performance.

After coming up against the limits of physics, scientists are rethinking chip architecture like never before

We’re building an open source alternative to AWS. For IPv4 assignment and firewall rules, we use Linux’s Netfilter / Nftables. This subsystem provides a powerful way to handle packets addressed to the host. We recently came across flowtables - a network acceleration feature in the Linux kernel that works like a routing cache. When we introduced flowtables into our stack, it reduced network latencies by 7.5%.

This post covers infrastructure improvement ideas for an existing AI application's architecture for better delivery, performance, and cost-reduction.

Back in 2020, I created Cubiml, a simple ML-like language that demonstrated how to extend the usual Hindley–Milner type system with subtyping while still having decidable full type inference. One question I got was whether it would be possible to support generalized algebraic data types (GADTs) in Cubiml. I had heard that GADTs break type inference and didn’t see the point, so I didn’t think much of it at the time.

Suppose you want to build a predictive text engine. Given a few letters, you want to predict the end of a word. Suppose we have the string
