  • Kernel – Rust 1.77 update

    February 24th, 2024

    Linux kernel has a Rust version policy:

    “The kernel documents the minimal requirements to compile it. In the case of Rust, currently only a single version is supported (i.e. rather than a minimum)”

  • OpenZFS 2.2.3

    February 23rd, 2024

    “OpenZFS 2.2.3 is heavy on fixes plus now has support for the Linux 6.7 kernel as well as some preliminary Linux 6.8 kernel compatibility… The Linux 6.8 support isn’t yet official and still prone to breaking before the stable v6.8 in March, but at least some initial elements are here. OpenZFS support going back to the Linux 3.10 kernel is maintained as well as for FreeBSD 12.2 and newer.”

    Installing reflector and updating my mirror by download rate just solved the issue completely:

    reflector –verbose -l 5 –sort rate –save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

    February 21st, 2024

    They also identified cheaters by their very unusual response times and accuracy.

    For instance, although USMLE questions typically require ~90 seconds to answer, the plaintiff answered many USMLE Step 1 questions in <20 seconds – and did so with 100% accuracy. pic.twitter.com/A7IbUogEW5

    Last week, a Nepali doctor filed a class action lawsuit against the National Board of Medical Examiners, alleging discrimination based upon national origin and requesting that invalidated USMLE scores be restored while examinees appeal.

    Today, the NBME responded.
