Evaluating BBRv2 on the Dropbox Edge Network
Nowadays, loss-based TCP congestion controls in general and CUBIC specifically became the de facto standard for the Internet. BBR congestion control challenges the loss-based approach by modeling the network based on estimated bandwidth and round-trip time. At Dropbox, we've been using BBRv1 since 2017 and are accustomed to its pros and cons. BBRv2 introduces a set of improvements to network modeling (explicit loss targets and inflight limits) and fairness (differential probing and headroom for…

China's efforts to slow land degradation and climate change
by planting trees and restoring grasslands
have shifted water around the country in huge, unforeseen ways, new research shows.
Between 2001 and 2020, changes in vegetation cover reduced the amount of fresh water available for humans and ecosystems in the eastern monsoon region and northwestern arid region,
which together make up 74% of China's land area, according to a study published Oct. 4 in the jo…

China has planted so many trees it's changed the entire country's water distribution
Huge "regreening" efforts in China over the past few decades have activated the country's water cycle and moved water in ways that scientists are just now starting to understand.

Locks in PostgreSQL: 3. Other locks
We've already discussed some object-level locks (specifically, relation-level locks), as well as row-level locks with their connection to object-level locks and also explored wait queues, which are...

Oh great. Sales of pesticides containing PFAS 'forever chemicals' growing explosively, as more and more types are allowed on the market.

Afzet gewasbeschermingsmiddelen met PFAS neemt enorm toe
De afzet van PFAS-houdende gewasbeschermingsmiddelen is flink gestegen. In de periode 2010-2020 lag dit rond de 150.000 kilo, in 2023 was dit ruim 250.000 kilo. Fungiciden hebben het grootste aandeel. Dit blijkt uit onderzoek van adviesbureau CLM.

It was approaching time to renew my Global Entry Membership. One of the questions required for renewal was to list the countries I’ve been to since 2020.
Each country visited had to be selected from a list. The UI was excellent. I could type a substring and the options would be limited to countries containing that substring ✅. I couldn’t find Turkey. Searched Tu, scrolled the unfiltered list no Turkey.
WHY?
