닷넷은 8.0이후로 Microsoft만이 아니라, Canonical, RedHat 등 각 리눅스 배포판 관리자들이 Microsoft를 대신하여 본인들의 배포판 OS에서 잘 작동할 수 있도록 검증 과정을 거쳐 독자적으로 빌드하여 패키징을 하고 있습니다.

그 덕분에 매우 유의미한 발전이 하나 있었는데, IBM 메인프레임 (s390x)과 IBM PowerPC (ppc64el)에서도 우분투 리눅스를 사용하면 이제 닷넷 10을 아주 손쉽게 apt install dotnet-sdk-10.0 명령어 하나로 바로 설치해서 쓸 수 있게 됩니다.

IBM patented Euler's 200 year old math technique by repackaging a well-established mathematical concept of generalized continued fractions with new, flashy branding like "CoFrNets" and "ladders."

They implement this in PyTorch, using the reciprocal as a nonlinearity, and achieve mediocre results (61% accuracy on a simple dataset).

I use and anywhere I can, and manage to put in a little time maintaining a few packages that I use for the dayjob.

Finally, the separate box of POWER9 upgrades appears. These are for the dual socket 144 thread Talos II here at home (the LC-922 are in colo). Relocation has turned up a lot of missing hardware, very pleased about this turn of events.

So, the long lost box contains:
- 4x Samsung 883-DCT 2TB SSDs for local storage ZFS pool (with 2x Optane NVMe cache)
- 3x PM863a 240GB SSDs for the OS
- always more RAM
- an OcuLink 4x to U.2 cable w/ Optane drive floating around somewhere
- Mellanox 50GbE QSFP28 NIC for RDMA fun

@dexterMichael Dexter finally, we can continue the project with appropriate hardware

For the 10th anniversary of Japan released a 65% scale model kit of one of the most iconic computers ever built: the ThinkPad 701c. Today, let's build one of those kits and talk about this amazing portable computer.

Some twenty years ago you could just order stuff on the Internet for free. Big companies were giving away cool things: I remember you could get IA-32 programming manuals from Intel at zero cost (and zero shipping costs).
Me being stupid me got this. A whole package of IBM DB2 8.1 for AIX (32-bit) disks including learning materials.
I still wonder what to do with these.
There's zero chance of me stumbling upon an AIX-supported hardware.

💻 Hello Old Friend, Talos II 💻

This was my first IBM POWER9 system, acquired in 2020 and built for home/desk use. Dual socket SMT4 Sforza, 144 threads, 256-512GB RAM, various storage/net/accelerators over the years. [1]

As expected, I fell in love and acquired four IBM Power System L922-2U [2], which are presently in the colo awaiting network rebuild (remote hands this time).

The Talos II has served a variety of purposes, with most of its time running FreeBSD PPC64le (&a bit of PPC64be for fun). Sometimes also Linux, back when I was tearing into qemu code for compiler optimization hypothesis testing, RTX GPU passthrough, +validating assumptions about qemu on P9/le handling amd64 & arm64 emulation.

So, out of storage! Into the rack! New user accounts! But first it needs updated OS drives (the 3x 64GB SATADOM in Raid-Z1 need to be repurposed), and a NIC (25G-DP CX-5 or X710-DA4).

@dexterMichael Dexter electricity comes next 🧠

Eva's Talos II system, sitting on a storage push-cart, resting atop a 48 port switch for fun and ... "ESD protection?"... in transit back to its proper home. Top-Down view inside of Eva's Talos II system, featuring dual IBM POWER9 SMT4 Sforza SKU, with a total 144 hardware threads (4 threads per core). A front view from one of Eva's "HomeLab spill-over into the colo"... server racks, with a pink overlay box indicating the location of three IBM LC-922 Power9 systems. 

Above those are various Dell PowerEdge servers and an Arista DCS-7060CX-32S switch (ports facing rear). 

Located at the base of the rack is an APC UPS and APC ATS, handling automated failover of facility / battery power sources for casually "some-9s of uptime" high-availability compliance.
