Hello, Rust community!

My name is Hadrien and I am a software performance engineer in a particle physics lab. My daily job is to figure out ways to make scientific software use hardware more efficiently without sacrificing its correctness, primarily by adapting old-ish codebases to the changes that occured in the software and computing landscape since the days where they were designed:

• CPU clock rates and instruction-level parallelism stopped going up, so optimizing code is now more important.
• Multi-core CPUs went from an exotic niche to a cheap commodity, so parallelism is not optional anymore.
• Core counts grow faster than RAM prices go down, so multi-processing is not enough anymore.
• SIMD vectors become wider and wider, so vectorization is not a gimmick anymore.

How To Work With Multiple Github Accounts on a single Machine

Let suppose I have two github accounts, https://github.com/rahul-office and https://github.com/rahul-personal. Now i want to setup my mac to easily talk to both the github accounts.

NOTE: This logic can be extended to more than two accounts also. :)

The setup can be done in 5 easy steps:

Steps:

• Step 1 : Create SSH keys for all accounts
• Step 2 : Add SSH keys to SSH Agent

Mandelbrot in Mojo with Python plots

Not only Mojo is great for writing high-performance code, but it also allows us to leverage huge Python ecosystem of libraries and tools. With seamless Python interoperability, Mojo can use Python for what it's good at, especially GUIs, without sacrificing performance in critical code. Let's take the classic Mandelbrot set algorithm and implement it in Mojo.

We'll introduce a Complex type and use it in our implementation.

Introduction

If you're reading this, chances are you have some idea of eBPF and XDP. In this article, we'll write an eBPF program that will count and categorize packets based on the destination port.

eBPF

Writing low-level tracing, monitoring, or network programs in Linux is not easy. Through all the layers of the kernel, people have been squeezing every bit of performance they could get.

And that's where eBPF comes in. eBPF is basically an extended and modern variation of BPF which is like a virtual machine inside the Linux kernel. It can execute user-defined programs inside a sandbox in the kernel.

These programs can be executed in various hook points but we will focus on XDP for now.
