- GNOME 51 Retires Legacy NVIDIA Driver Support With Removing EGLStreams5 June 2026, 10:28 am
EGLStreams was NVIDIA's original route to supporting Wayland with their official Linux graphics driver stack. Adoption was limited and driver vendors outside of NVIDIA didn't end up going with EGLStreams/EGLDevice. Thankfully, NVIDIA corrected course long ago with DMA-BUF, GBM, and KMS support that aligns with the rest of the ecosystem, and now that old code path is being removed from GNOME Mutter......

- Benchmarking The BORE Scheduler Performance With CachyOS Linux5 June 2026, 12:46 am
Earlier this week I ran benchmarks of different CachyOS Linux kernel flavors that proved interesting from the performance overhead of their hardened kernel build to various other interesting performancr takeaways. One kernel flavor I hadn't tested though was their build with the BORE scheduler. Given the interest and feedback from Phoronix readers, here is an article focused on looking at the performance of the BORE scheduler for the Linux kernel on CachyOS....
- Linux 7.1 + Mesa 26.1 Performance With The Radeon RX 9070 GRE, RX 9070 XT4 June 2026, 9:25 pm
With this week's launch day review of the AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE, Ubuntu 26.04 with its Linux 7.0 and Mesa 26.0 default driver stack was used for testing. That choice was made since the Ubuntu 26.04 release is still fresh, the RDNA4-based RX 9070 GRE was working without issue there, and from other RDNA4 testing knowing there isn't much uplift from the in-development Linux 7.1 kernel or the current stable Mesa 26.1 OpenGL RadeonSI / Vulkan RADV drivers. But for those interested, here are those te...

Version
4.0.13 of Ruby's Bundler
package-manager has added
dependency cooldowns in order to help mitigate the effect of
supply-chain attacks:
Most supply-chain attacks against RubyGems exploit a narrow window:
an account is compromised, a malicious version ships, and any
bundle install in the minutes that follow resolves
straight to it. Bundler 4.0.13 introduces cooldown, a time-based
filter that refuses to resolve to a version until it has been public
for at least N days. Releases too new to...

The Software Engineering Radio podcast has put up an
interview with graphics maintainer Dave Airlie. Much of what is in
there will not be news to LWN readers, but it is an interesting overview of
the life of a large-subsystem maintainer.
I was talking to a few of the Rust people, and I thought: these are
very young people, these are a group of people in their 20s, maybe
30s, they are a younger cohort of developers than the people I am
normally used to dealing with. I thought there was ma...
- [$] Splicing out vmsplice()4 June 2026, 4:22 pm
The splice()
and vmsplice()
system calls are meant to improve performance for certain data-movement
tasks by minimizing (or avoiding altogether) system calls and the copying
of data. They also have a long history of security problems. The recent
flood of LLM-discovered vulnerabilities has drawn attention, once again, to
splice() and vmsplice(); as a result, they may end up
being removed altogether....

The EFF has a blog
post looking at a new bill in California that would exempt
open-source operating systems from the Digital Age Assurance Act
passed last year, but has problems of its own:
While the open source exemption, if passed, would improve the law, the
remaining amendments proposed by AB 1856 would require all web

- [$] Open-source security is not a solo activity3 June 2026, 3:02 pm
Over time, many open-source maintainers face the same problem: they
lack the time to do all of the work that their project needs, and no
one else is stepping up to provide adequate help. Maintainers, though,
are often reluctant to throw in the towel. The result is suboptimal
all around; the maintainer is stressed out, project quality suffers,
and users face security risks that they may not be fully aware of. At
the 2026 Open
Source Summit North America, Robin Bender Ginn spoke about this

Memory-Management, and BPF Summit. He shared a set of ideas for how BPF could
change to avoid being swept away by the sea-change in programming represented by modern

Andrew Tridgell has written a blog
post responding to complaints that he has begun using LLM tools in
his work maintaining rsync:
Like many developers of open source packages I've been hit by a

there are some notable ones with very careful and high quality manual
analysis).
As this flood started to get more intense I realised I needed to

The dominant failure modes are usually partial and ambiguous: a socket closes after a downstream system commits, a gateway returns a timeout while the target service is still processing, a throttling layer asks for a pause, or a dependency becomes slow enough that waiting callers begin to exhaust threads, connections, and ports.
In that environment, simplistic catch-and-retry logic is not resilience. It is uncontrolled traffic ge...
- Persistent Memory for AI Agents Using LangChain's Deep Agents4 June 2026, 6:00 pm
AI agents have a memory problem. Not the kind that we all hear daily — hallucination, wrong answers, but a much quieter and fundamental problem. When you start a new conversation with the agent, it forgets who you are. It doesn't know what you have already worked on, what you have clarified multiple times across sessions, or what is common across all the sessions. You start from scratch every single time.
While this does sound good in a way, in case you weren't getting what you wanted out of...
- A System Cannot Protect What It Does Not Understand4 June 2026, 5:00 pm
Most systems describe updates from the outside, where a client sends data, the backend receives it, and the system applies the changes. From that perspective, an update appears simple and almost mechanical.
But from inside the system, the situation looks very different....
- Liquid Glass, Material 3, and a Lot of Plumbing4 June 2026, 4:30 pm
It has been one of those weeks where the diff is bigger than the headline. The headline is short — Codename One now ships modern native themes: an iOS "liquid glass" look and an Android Material 3 look, bundled into the iOS and Android ports, on by default in the Playground, and selectable from a brand new menu in the simulator. The diff behind that headline is several thousand lines across the platform ports, the simulator, the GUI plumbing, and a small army of screenshot tests.
What is Cod...

- The Hidden Cost of AI Tokens: Engineering Patterns for 10x Resource Efficiency4 June 2026, 3:30 pm
Last March, our VP of Engineering asked me a deceptively simple question during our quarterly review: "How much CO2 does our AI platform emit?" I had no idea. We'd been obsessing over token costs — tracking every cent spent on OpenAI and Anthropic — but we'd never connected those tokens to their environmental impact.
We were processing 42 million tokens daily. The finance team knew exactly what that cost in dollars: $127K monthly. But carbon? Nobody had asked....
- Beyond Manual Annotation: Engineering Self-Correcting Pseudo-Labeling Pipelines4 June 2026, 3:00 pm
Manual annotation is a massive bottleneck for multimodal inference systems in high-velocity production environments. If you want to survive catastrophic distribution shifts, you have to automate your labeling pipeline. I want to walk through a pseudo-labeling architecture we built that filters out extreme pipeline noise to hit a 0.93 F1 score using XGBoost.
Semi-supervised strategies like pseudo-labeling look great on paper but often fail in practice. They suffer from confirmation bias. The mode...
- Testing AI-Infused Apps: A Dual-Layer Framework for AI Quality Assurance4 June 2026, 2:30 pm
AI-infused apps are different from traditional software. Apps that embed large language models, agents, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), or tool-calling workflows bring their own characteristics. They combine deterministic code with probabilistic intelligence. This creates new failure modes that standard testing practices cannot fully address.
Engineering leaders, QA architects, platform teams, DevOps engineers, AI product owners, and reliability teams must adopt a dual testing strategy: ri...
- Used Waymo Robotaxi Batteries Become Backup Storage For Power Grids5 June 2026, 7:00 am
Waymo and B2U Storage Solutions have struck a "strategic supply agreement" to repurpose used batteries from Waymo's electric robotaxi fleet into stationary storage for California and Texas power grids. The arrangement could give robotaxi batteries a second life storing renewable energy after they're no longer suitable for vehicle use. It will also "support B2U projects in regions where Waymo's autonomous robotaxis operate -- meaning the used Waymo batteries could bolster the local power grids th...

Yes, the Fedora 43 upgrade brought an interesting revelation for all Outlook users—one that Microsoft is unlikely to be thrilled about.

It looks like, that bug dates back to at least Outlook 2007, which is the oldest Outlook version I was informed about.

- Breaking changes for all users of `varnish`, which is renamed to `vinyl-cache`25 May 2026, 4:58 am
The Varnish project has renamed itself to Vinyl Cache.
We followed this rename with a new vinyl-cache package.
This upgrade results in breaking changes and users are advised to study these changes and how it affects them before following the replacement.
All references to "varnish" have been changed to "vinyl" in all binaries and directories.
At minimum, users will have to:
rename /etc/varnish to /etc/vinyl-cache
rename /var/lib/varnish to /var/lib/vinyl-cache

- kea >= 1:3.0.3-6 update requires manual intervention7 April 2026, 4:50 pm

Users upgrading from an existing kea installation should therefore run the following commands after the upgrade:
chown kea: /var/lib/kea/* /var/log/kea/* /run/lock/kea/logger_lockfile
systemctl try-restart kea-ctrl-agent.service kea-dhcp{4,6,-ddns}.service

check for .pacsave files in /etc/iptables/ and restore your rules if needed:
/etc/iptables/iptables.rules.pacsave
/etc/iptables/ip6tables.rules.pacsave
Most setups should work unchanged, but users relying on uncommon xtables
extensions or legacy-only behavior should test carefully and use
iptables-legacy if r...
- NVIDIA 590 driver drops Pascal and lower support; main packages switch to Open Kernel Modules20 December 2025, 6:53 pm

Impact: Updating the NVIDIA packages on systems with Pascal, Maxwell, or older cards will fail to load the driver, which may result in a broken graphical environment.
Intervention required for Pascal/older users: Users with GTX 10xx series and older cards must switc...

- waydroid >= 1.5.4-3 update may require manual intervention6 November 2025, 12:35 am
The waydroid package prior to version 1.5.4-2 (including aur/waydroid) creates Python byte-code files (.pyc) at runtime which were untracked by pacman. This issue has been fixed in 1.5.4-3, where byte-compiling these files is now done during the packaging process.
As a result, the upgrade may conflict with the unowned files created in previous versions. If you encounter errors like the following during the update:

In August 2007, a few weeks after launching this site, I did something that still surprises me when I think about it: I emailed Guido van Rossum — the creator of Python and the language’s self-titled “Benevolent Dictator For Life” — to ask for advice on starting a Python User Group in the Philippines.To my genuine shock, he replied. Quickly. With actual instructions on how to get it started.That email led to a blog post called “Will Real Python Hackers Please Stand Up,” which becam...

At the time, the state-of-the-art in Linux robotics was getting a wheeled platform to navigat...

I’m writing this on a MacBook Air running macOS 26 Tahoe, and I keep glancing at my Mac Mini in the corner — the one running Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.I’ve been a macOS user for a decade. I develop iOS apps. I’m neck-deep in the Apple ecosystem — iPhone, Apple Watch Ultra, AirPods, the whole cult membership. But last year, Apple released macOS Tahoe with its Liquid Glass redesign, and I found myself wondering: has the free operating system actually gotten *better* than the premium one?Short ans...

The tech industry has failed to properly acknowledge this for years: Linux won. Not "Linux is doing fine." Not "Linux is making progress." Not "maybe next year will be the year of the Linux desktop." No. Linux won. Decisively. Overwhelmingly. In nearly every category of computing that actually matters, Linux is the dominant operating system on the planet — and it happened quietly that most people, including many who use it every single day, have absolutely no idea.I've been writing about Lin...

A few years ago, a friend of mine bought a Rolex Submariner. It cost him roughly the same as a decent used car. He showed it to me with the kind of pride usually reserved for newborn babies and championship trophies. It was beautiful, I’ll admit. The weight of it, the way it caught the light, the satisfying click of the rotating bezel — there’s a reason people have been obsessed with luxury watches for centuries.He then asked me what I was wearing on my wrist. I looked down at my Garmin Fe...
