  • Nicholas Nethercote: Visualizing Rust compilation

    Speeding up the Rust compiler isn’t the only way to make a Rust project build faster. Changing the crate structure of a project can also make a big difference. The good news here is that Eric Huss has implemented an amazing tool for visualizing Rust compilation, which can be used to identify inefficient crate structures in Rust projects.

  • RcppArmadillo 0.9.800.1.0

    Another month, another Armadillo upstream release! Hence a new RcppArmadillo release arrived on CRAN earlier today, and was just shipped to Debian as well. It brings a faster solve() method and other goodies. We also switched to the (awesome) tinytest unit test frameowrk, and Min Kim made the configure.ac script more portable for the benefit of NetBSD and other non-bash users; see below for more details. One again we ran two full sets of reverse-depends checks, no issues were found, and the packages was auto-admitted similarly at CRAN after less than two hours despite there being 665 reverse depends. Impressive stuff, so a big Thank You! as always to the CRAN team.

  • Anaconda Enters a New Chapter

    Today I am excited to announce that I am stepping into the role of CEO at Anaconda. Although I am a founder of the company and have previously served as president, this marks the first time I am serving in the role of chief executive.

    The entire world is undergoing a revolution in computation and data analytics — a revolution that we helped start almost 10 years ago, at the dawn of modern data science.

    [...]

    I am very appreciative of our previous CEO Scott Collison. Under his leadership, we grew from an open-source consultancy into a true product company, put a world-class leadership team in place, and launched our enterprise machine learning platform. He made a lasting impact on our company’s evolution.

  • Emacs: The Best Python Editor?

    Finding the right code editor for Python development can be tricky. Many developers explore numerous editors as they grow and learn. To choose the right code editor, you have to start by knowing which features are important to you. Then, you can try to find editors that have those features. One of the most feature-rich editors available is Emacs.

    Emacs started in the mid-1970s as a set of macro extensions for a different code editor. It was adopted into the GNU project by Richard Stallman in the early 1980s, and GNU Emacs has been continuously maintained and developed ever since. To this day, GNU Emacs and the XEmacs variant are available on every major platform, and GNU Emacs continues to be a combatant in the Editor Wars.

Samsung, Red Hat to Work on Linux Drivers for Future Tech

The metaverse is expected to uproot system design as we know it, and Samsung is one of many hardware vendors re-imagining data center infrastructure in preparation for a parallel 3D world. Samsung is working on new memory technologies that provide faster bandwidth inside hardware for data to travel between CPUs, storage and other computing resources. The company also announced it was partnering with Red Hat to ensure these technologies have Linux compatibility. Read more

  • How to install go1.19beta on Ubuntu 22.04 – NextGenTips

    In this tutorial, we are going to explore how to install go on Ubuntu 22.04 Golang is an open-source programming language that is easy to learn and use. It is built-in concurrency and has a robust standard library. It is reliable, builds fast, and efficient software that scales fast. Its concurrency mechanisms make it easy to write programs that get the most out of multicore and networked machines, while its novel-type systems enable flexible and modular program constructions. Go compiles quickly to machine code and has the convenience of garbage collection and the power of run-time reflection. In this guide, we are going to learn how to install golang 1.19beta on Ubuntu 22.04. Go 1.19beta1 is not yet released. There is so much work in progress with all the documentation.

  • How To Install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9 - idroot

    In this tutorial, we will show you how to install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9. For those of you who didn’t know, MongoDB is a high-performance, highly scalable document-oriented NoSQL database. Unlike in SQL databases where data is stored in rows and columns inside tables, in MongoDB, data is structured in JSON-like format inside records which are referred to as documents. The open-source attribute of MongoDB as a database software makes it an ideal candidate for almost any database-related project. This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo‘ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you the step-by-step installation of the MongoDB NoSQL database on AlmaLinux 9. You can follow the same instructions for CentOS and Rocky Linux.

  • Self-host a Ghost Blog With Traefik

    Ghost is a very popular open-source content management system. Started as an alternative to WordPress and it went on to become an alternative to Substack by focusing on membership and newsletter. The creators of Ghost offer managed Pro hosting but it may not fit everyone's budget. Alternatively, you can self-host it on your own cloud servers. On Linux handbook, we already have a guide on deploying Ghost with Docker in a reverse proxy setup. Instead of Ngnix reverse proxy, you can also use another software called Traefik with Docker. It is a popular open-source cloud-native application proxy, API Gateway, Edge-router, and more. I use Traefik to secure my websites using an SSL certificate obtained from Let's Encrypt. Once deployed, Traefik can automatically manage your certificates and their renewals. In this tutorial, I'll share the necessary steps for deploying a Ghost blog with Docker and Traefik.
