The US and Ukraine have drafted a new 19-point peace deal,
but left the most politically sensitive elements to be decided by the countries' presidents,
according to Ukrainian first deputy foreign minister Sergiy Kyslytsya.
Washington had previously put Kyiv under pressure to agree a 28-point proposal that had been developed by US and Russian officials and crossed several long-standing Ukrainian red lines.
Kyslytsya, who was in the room as par…

I'm building webkit-gtk right now. It's one of these messy packages where a few source files need a lot of memory to compile, and ninja can randomly order jobs so that all of them suddenly start compiling simultaneously. So to keep things going smoothly without OOM-ing, I've been dynamically adjusting the available job count via steve the #jobserver.
While doing that, I've noticed that ninja isn't taking new jobs immediately after I increased the job count. So I've started debugging steve, and couldn't find out anything wrong with it. Finally, I've looked into ninja and realized how lazy their code is.
So, there are two main approaches to acquiring job tokens. Either you do blocking reads, and therefore wait for a token to become available, or you use polling to get noticed when it becomes available. Ninja instead does non-blocking reads, and if there are no more tokens available… it waits till one of its own jobs finish.
This roughly means that as other processes release tokens, ninja won't take them until one of its own jobs finish. And if ninja didn't manage to acquire any job tokens to begin with, it is just running a single process via implicit slot, and that process finishing provides it with the only chance to acquire additional tokens. So realistically speaking, as long as there are other build jobs running in parallel, ninja is going to need to be incredibly lucky to ever get a job token, since all other processes will grab the available tokens immediately.
This isn't something that steve can fix.

LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky sees a lot of career advice on the site every day, but he doesn’t always agree with every piece that’s shared.
One common tip that Roslansky said is “a little bit outdated” is that
“you have to have a five-year plan,” he told content creator Erin McGoff in an interview for her YouTube channel AdviceWithErin.
In Roslansky’s view, having a five-year plan is “a little bit foolish,” he said:
given how rapidly technology and the workplace are ch…

Microsoft Azure:
"On 15 November 2028, we'll be retiring F, Fs, Fsv2, Lsv2, G, Gs, Av2, Amv2, and B-series Azure VMs. You won't be able to use or purchase these VMs, or any constrained core sizes that are part of the retiring VM series, after that date."
Three-year advance notice, pretty sure that is the longest advanced warning I've ever seen for something like this.
