Difference Engine: Luddite legacy
AN APOCRYPHAL tale is told about Henry Ford II showing Walter Reuther, the veteran leader of the United Automobile Workers, around a newly automated car plant. “Walter, how are you going to get those robots to pay your union dues,†gibed the boss of Ford Motor Company. Without skipping a beat, Reuther replied, “Henry, how are you going to get them to buy your cars?â€Whether the exchange was true or not is irrelevant. The point was that any increase in productivity required...

Scala feels like EJB 2, and other thoughts
At Devoxx last week I used the phrase "Scala feels like EJB 2 to me". What was on my mind?ScalaFor a number of years on this blog I've been mentioning a desire to write a post about Scala. Writing such a post is not easy, because anyone who has been paying attention to anti-Scala blog posts will know that writing one is a sure fire way of getting flamed. The Scala community is not tolerant of dissent.But ultimately, I felt that it was important for me to speak out and express my opinions. As I s...

Applying Large Language Models (LLMs) to Solve Cybersecurity Questions
In this document, we will introduce some test, experiment and analysis conclusion about applying Large Language Models (LLMs) to solve cybersecurity questions. Introduction Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used in education and research for tasks such as analyzing program code error logs, help summarize papers and improving reports. In this project, we aim to evaluate the effectiveness of LLMs in solving cybersecurity-related questions, such as Capture The Flag (CTF) challenges, ...
Optimization Tricks used by the Lockless Memory Allocator
With the releasing of the Lockless Memory Allocator under the GPL version 3.0 license, we can now discuss more of the optimization tricks used inside it. Many of these are things you wouldn't want to use in normal code. However, when speed is the ultimate goal, sometimes we need to break a few rules and use code that is a little sneaky.The SlabA slab is a well-known technique for allocating fixed size objects. For a given object size, a chunk of memory is divided up into smaller regions of that ...

How expensive is a MySQL query?
Database access speed is always the bottle neck of many applications. Many application have large amount of data to search, retrieve and display nowadays. How do we improve the performance of our applications, how do we reduce the cost of database access? Apart from the design of database, the quality of the query is also one important factor to take care. But before that, we need to know how much network traffic a query will consume. Yunyang,Zhang from Nubee in Singapore did some research...

Nokia is still alive and lives a good life indeed
1 Do you believe that Nokia, which you thought had gone bankrupt, not only survived but is still one of the world's most profitable technology companies, making trillions of dollars in profit every year? In 2022, Nokia's annual revenue reached 24.9 billion euros. Its net profit of 4.25 billion euros also hit a new high in nearly a decade. Moreover, as early as 2017, it quietly returned to the Fortune Global 500. In the telecommunications field, it is the world's third-largest telecommunications...
Power Grid OT Simulation System
Mini OT-Energy-System Cyber Security Digital Twin Figure-00: Power_Grid_OT_Simulation_System Environment Diagram, version v0.1.2 (2024) Project Design Purpose: The primary objective of this project is to develop a scaled-down Operational Technology (OT) digital twin/equivalent — an advanced software simulation system capable of emulating the functionality of an small-sized 18KW (560+MkWh/year) hybrid power grid. This system will meet the requirements for cybersecurity training, exercises...
The Future of AI Chips Might Not Be GPU
In the layout of AI computing architectures, the model of CPUs working in collaboration with accelerator chips has become a typical AI deployment solution. CPUs act as providers of basic computing power, while accelerator chips are responsible for enhancing computational performance, aiding in the efficient execution of algorithms. Common AI accelerator chips can be categorized into three main types based on their technological paths: GPU, FPGA, and ASIC. In this competition, GPUs have emerged a...

The Most Effective Stretches and Yoga Poses for Programmers
Programming software takes a tremendous amount of focus and effort. Working hard to transform code into software is an exciting feeling. It’s easy to get lost in your work as the hours fly by. I’ve done this many times. However, writing code can also be frustrating in many cases. I’ve been a programmer for many years, and I still spend hours debugging. Most of the time this level of debugging requires sitting down and focusing. After many years of this, you will be a prime ca...
