I read Google is limitting the use of io_uring, but I have seen io_uring being used in other Databases, TigerBeetle is another DB which uses io_uring.

Does Redis support multithreading? Doesn't it use a single-threaded event loop, while DragonflyDB basic version is with multithreading enabled and shared-nothing architecture. Also I found this latest comparison between Valkey and DragonflyDB : https://www.dragonflydb.io/blog/dragonfly-vs-valkey-benchmar...

DragonflyDB is also in that race, isn't it?
hp77··on The quiet art of attention
Very good article, I 100% agree on everything. It is in moments of desperation to complete more than one task and complete them early we forget that our mind doesn't work that way, really liked the whole essay. I think one should visit it from time to time to remind themselves. Not to nitpick on CSS but I had to add following styles to the webpage to read it comfortably: p { display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; margin: 0; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; text-align: center; max-width: 800px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; } maybe you can add them if you want. Again, Great article. Thanks.

hp77··on WhatsApp gives users an ultimatum: Share data with Facebook or stop using app
Same case here in India, Sucks to have these apps despite knowing what they are doing just because your School or College groups are on these platforms. I tried educating my fellow mates about this but seems unlikely that it will have any effect.
