Выпуск компоновщика Mold 3.0, развиваемого разработчиком LLVM lld

Опубликован выпуск компоновщика Mold 3.0, который может применяться в качестве более быстрой прозрачной замены GNU linker на Linux-системах. Проект развивает Rui Ueyama, автор компоновщика LLVM lld. Ключевой особенностью Mold является очень высокая скорость связывания объектных файлов, заметно опережающая компоновщики GNU gold и LLVM lld (компоновка в Mold выполняется со скоростью, всего в два раза медленнее простого копирования файлов утилитой cp). Код написан на языке Rust и распространяется под лицензией MIT.

IBM expands IBM Z networking with 100GbE and on-chip I/O

IBM is pushing IBM Z further into hybrid data centers with two-port 100GbE connectivity and networking options that combine standard Ethernet with high-speed RDMA. The changes aim to move more data with less latency while reducing the adapters and I/O hardware customers need. That also helps keep sensitive transactional data close to AI workloads running on or alongside the mainframe.

Sam Altman faces tough questions on AI safety, liability and China

Sam Altman tells POLITICO’s Brendan Bordelon that broad access to AI is worth accepting some risks—but not catastrophic loss of control. Pressed on reports of OpenAI models accessing government websites, safety testing and accountability, he backs more disclosure and debate over company liability, while warning that regulation could concentrate power and questioning whether chip restrictions can contain China’s AI ambitions.

Hylki is a modern, Rust-based email client for GNOME

Hylki is a Rust-based email client designed for GNOME. It has a modern-looking GTK4/libadwaita interface based around a 3 column vertical layout – sound familiar? Like Postcard, Convey and Letters, Hylki is another of the new(ish) Linux e-mail clients ostensibly aiming to fill the “user friendly” slot left by Geary’s lack-of-activity. Hylki was previously known as Vireo (a naming conflict with a macOS developer forced a rethink). “Fast to open, effortless to read, and private by default”, says its store description – but is it? Modern mail client for GNOME Hylki can connect to any email account(s) you have setup […]

Firefox GNOME theme updated to work with Nova

The unofficial GNOME theme for Firefox has been updated to work with the Firefox 157 release and its newer, rounder Nova theme. It is not a traditional Firefox theme (like the ones you can install from the Mozilla Add-ons site) but, to quote its GitHub page, a “bunch of CSS code to make Firefox look closer to GNOME’s native apps” – an excellent job it does at it too. With Nova now rolled out, the theme team working on the unofficial Adwaita-esque garb needed to update to account for CSS class changes and new widget style Nova adds in newer […]
