Two in three IT professionals now see low-code as a workaround solution. 'Low-code almost presents a counter-culture to traditional programming.'

A few weeks ago, Matthew Wilcox might have guessed that his session at the 2021 Linux Plumbers Conference would be focused rather differently. But, as we reported earlier in September, his folio patch set ran into some, perhaps unexpected, opposition and, ultimately, did not land in the mainline for 5.15. Instead of discussing how to use folios as part of the File Systems microconference, he led a discussion that was, at least in part, on the path forward for them.

You can now develop solutions with TensorFlow for the Spresense microcontroller board from Sony. It’s a combination of a leading machine learning ecosystem with a high performance microcontro…

Prototyping  reveals the hidden defects and gives way to perfection.

Middleboxes are, unfortunately in many ways, a big part of today's internet. While middleboxes inhabit the same physical niche as routers, they are not aimed at packet forwarding; instead they are meant to monitor and manipulate the packets that they see. The effects of those devices on users of the networks they reign over may be unfortunate as well, but the rest of the internet is only affected when trying to communicate with those users—or so it was thought. Based on some recently reported research, it turns out that middleboxes can be abused to inflict denial-of-service (DoS) attacks elsewhere on the net.
