The module allows Redis to interact in user space with the NIC, bypassing the kernel. They were generated while running Redis with the modules, and running it without:

Below is a flamegraph generated while performing a regular benchmark on unmodified Redis. This module, being in a standalone module form, is beneficial because it will likely provide performance gains regardless of where the Redis base code goes next and with future versions.

It was dedicated to the work of the local artist Étienne Terrus (1857-1922), a friend of Henri Matisse who had been largely forgotten by the time Traby established the museum in the mid-90s. In May 2018, weeks after Forcada’s discovery came to light, the Musée Rigaud, Perpignan’s main art museum, allegedly withdrew two suspect paintings by Terrus’s contemporary Augustin Hanicotte, lent by a private collector. Another national museum, the Museum of Modern Art in Céret, 14 miles south-west of Elne, is putting a large collection it has just been bequeathed under close scrutiny to avoid such embarrassment; Forcada, who has seen the works, believes 5% are “doubtful”.

We just launched a corporate card specially tailored for life sciences companies and every time we launch something new we get a lot of questions about how we chose to prioritize this feature or product, so I thought it’d be interesting to share here with the HN community. While I’ve previously posted about launching our initial tech startup card the decision to launch Life Sciences was much different in that we already had two existing products in the market with their own long list of improvements we wanted to make to them. Here’s my blog post going into much more detail (couldn’t fit it here): love to get your thoughts and feel free to ask any questions you might have.

SHANGHAI — China reduced its holdings of U.S. government debt again in April even as Beijing’s gold reserves continued to grow, diversifying away from the dollar as ties with Washington fray. China’s gold reserves have grown for six straight months since December, the first time the country increased its holdings of the precious metal in more than two years. China’s Treasury stockpile long stayed above $1.2 trillion, but after the yuan’s sharp depreciation in 2015, Beijing is believed to have sold some of the securities to fund intervention to shore up its currency.

In addition to releasing details about the Libra via a white paper and other explainers, Facebook revealed that its involvement would be handled through a software “wallet” subsidiary called Calibra, which will store user funds and act as an initial on-ramp to the Libra cryptocurrency. On the first point, Marcus said that Facebook is enforcing a strict separation between users’ social data—their Facebook likes, photos, etc—and the financial data that will be available on Libra’s network. Indeed, that’s why Calibra, the wallet software that will hold Libras, was made a subsidiary of Facebook—“to ensure appropriate separation between social and financial data and to build and operate services on its behalf on top of the Libra network,” as the white paper explains.

LinkedIn will scan your local browser files in an attempt to identify a number of different browser extensions you may have installed. After inspecting a few of the extension IDs in the resources I began to suspect LinkedIn was attempting to determine if I had certain extensions installed by executing local web requests to the browser itself. LinkedIn abuses this fact and sprays web requests to your local browser in attempt to find extensions.

Backpage, the domain that brought the federal government down on Lacey and Larkin’s heads, wasn’t much to look at—a bare-bones interface wrapped in Facebooky blue, similar to Craigslist in both form and function. The government indictment that triggered Lacey and Larkin’s arrests, United States v. Lacey, et al., includes 17 “victim summaries”—stories of women who say they were sexually exploited through Backpage. In the years before their arrest, Lacey and Larkin had successfully beat back charges like these in court.
