Fedora isn't the best cutting-edge Linux distro anymore I always felt really fine with Debian testing, where package are definitely up-to-date, although less tested, but still largely reliable. I switched to Ubuntu a couple of years ago due to a driver issue with the new laptop, which was a problem with Debian installer and worked fine with Ubuntu. I'd like to move back to Debian somewhere in the future. https://www.howtogeek.com/fedora-isnt-the-best-cutting-edge-linux-distro-anymore/

Most people install Linux the hard way for no reason. Here's the easy process that's never failed me Sure using a second, dedicated drive make the installation easier. But 30 seconds to switch drive is annoying 😄 https://www.howtogeek.com/most-install-linux-the-hard-way-theres-easy-process-thats-never-fails/

rsync and outrage. I gave up blogging a long time ago… | by Andrew Tridgell | Jun, 2026 I find the story interesting, in which a seasoned programmer, responsible for one of the most famous CLI tool for file transfer, needs to explain to people who criticize how he used LLMs to work at the code of rsync, like a random guy publishing his latest AI slop on reddit... https://medium.com/@tridge60/rsync-and-outrage-d9849599e5a0

Dumb Ways for an Open Source Project to Die | Andrew Nesbitt A good chunk of the most-depended-on open source packages are dead, and there are a lot of different ways for a project to end up that way. https://nesbitt.io/2026/05/19/dumb-ways-for-an-open-source-project-to-die.html?ref=selfh.st

Linux File Permissions Explained: Concepts, Scenarios & Best Practices - Data Dev Blog https://datadevblog.com/linux-file-permissions-explained/

Linux is Getting a Kill Switch! It's pitched as a way for system administrators to disable a vulnerable kernel function on a running system, and the timing of it isn't a coincidence either. The patch follows the rising risk of Linux Privilege Escalation (LPE) vulnerabilities like Copy Fail and Dirty Frag. https://itsfoss.com/news/linux-killswitch-proposal/

AI and Teaching This is the 16th year we’ve been teaching the Stanford Lean LaunchPad class. This year, from the first hour of the first class, we realized we were seeing something extraordinary happen. It was both the end and beginning of a new era. Teams showed up to the first day of class with MVPs (Minimal Viable Products) looking like finished products that previous classes had taken weeks or months to build. After the class, as the instructors sat processing what just happened, we realized there’s no going back. https://steveblank.com/2026/04/22/ai-and-teaching-the-brave-new-world/

The only sane way to use Linux | Amit's Blog For those unacquainted, I feel the best description of Nix is a “software management tool,” intentionally vague but necessarily so: Nix can be applied in so many ways! Managing dotfiles, maintaining development environments, packaging software, provisioning machines, and quite a bit more. https://amit.prasad.me/blog/sane-nix

LLM research on Hacker News is drying up – Dylan Castillo I thought I was seeing fewer arXiv papers on the front page of Hacker News (HN) these days, and I wanted to check if that was real. So I asked Claude to run a quick analysis: track the share of arXiv stories on HN over time. It queried the BigQuery HN dataset, bucketed the stories by month. https://dylancastillo.co/til/llm-research-on-hacker-news-is-dying.html

Email is crazy Email is like those creaking old Terminators from the ’70s which continue to function without complaining. Designed for a world that doesn’t exist anymore, it has optional encryption, no built-in auth, three⁺ retrofitted security layers bolted on top, an unstandardized filtering layer and many more quirks. Yet billions of emails arrive correctly every single day. https://samkhawase.com/blog/email-is-crazy/

Has the Rust Programming Language's Popularity Reached Its Plateau? - Slashdot One possible explanation is that, despite its ability to produce highly efficient and safe code, Rust remains difficult to learn for non-expert programmers. While specialists in performance-critical domains are willing to invest in mastering the language, broader mainstream adoption appears more challenging. https://m.slashdot.org/story/454032

Text is the New Binary | Andrea Baccega In April 2026, Andrej Karpathy published a GitHub gist. Not code. Not a library. A markdown document describing a pattern: an LLM-maintained folder of wiki pages that compounds across sessions and beats RAG. https://andreabaccega.com/blog/text-is-the-new-binary/

Lua Language in 2026: Performance, Jobs, and Why It Matters | Ismat Samadov LuaJIT finishes a computational benchmark in 23.29 seconds. C finishes in 22.29. That's a 4.5% gap between a dynamically typed scripting language and the fastest compiled language on earth. Python, doing the same test? 416.55 seconds. Eighteen times slower. https://www.ismatsamadov.com/blog/lua-278k-language-running-the-internet
