Okay I actually timed it: 8 minutes and 40 seconds to delete 13 lines and add 4.
I sure hope my promotion prospects aren’t based on lines of code / hour, or I’m in real trouble compared to my baseline.

I do not want to talk about what companies want. Why they want to push for AI (even if I had a pretty good intuition and understanding of why).
I do care about my career and I am probably quickly tempted to generalize my thoughts on this.
I wouldn’t really enjoy spending my time reviewing, debugging, correcting, and fixing, and most importantly carrying the responsibility, for a statistical engine. I don't see what the career progression is either. Is it “push as fast as possible to get a promotion and get out of this area before the 💩 starts breaking and you end up spending 1000% of your time in incidents?”

The racist online video that Donald Trump recently shared and then deleted generated a bipartisan furor
-- because of its portrayal of Barack and Michelle Obama as apes.
-- What was little remarked on was how it presented Trump himself — as the “King of the Jungle.”
After a year back in the White House, Trump’s efforts to promote himself as the singularly dominant figure in the world have become so commonplace
that they no longer seem surprising.

Equilibria: Fair Multi-Tenant CXL Memory Tiering At Scale
Kaiyang Zhao, Neha Gholkar, Hasan Maruf, Abhishek Dhanotia, Johannes Weiner, Gregory Price, Ning Sun, Bhavya Dwivedi, Stuart Clark, Dimitrios Skarlatos
arxiv.org/abs/2602.08800 arxiv.org/pdf/2602.08800 arxiv.org/html/2602.08800
arXiv:2602.08800v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Memory dominates datacenter system cost and power. Memory expansion via Compute Express Link (CXL) is an effective way to provide additional memory at lower cost and power, but its effective use requires software-level tiering for hyperscaler workloads. Existing tiering solutions, including current Linux support, face fundamental limitations in production deployments. First, they lack multi-tenancy support, failing to handle stacked homogeneous or heterogeneous workloads. Second, limited control-plane flexibility leads to fairness violations and performance variability. Finally, insufficient observability prevents operators from diagnosing performance pathologies at scale.
We present Equilibria, an OS framework enabling fair, multi-tenant CXL tiering at datacenter scale. Equilibria provides per-container controls for memory fair-share allocation and fine-grained observability of tiered-memory usage and operations. It further enforces flexible, user-specified fairness policies through regulated promotion and demotion, and mitigates noisy-neighbor interference by suppressing thrashing.
Evaluated in a large hyperscaler fleet using production workloads and benchmarks, Equilibria helps workloads meet service level objectives (SLOs) while avoiding performance interference. It improves performance over the state-of-the-art Linux solution, TPP, by up to 52% for production workloads and 1.7x for benchmarks. All Equilibria patches have been released to the Linux community.
