We are Live now! Join us for round 2 of Sharan Kalwani talking about his own direct experiences in High Performance Computing and Filesystems. Also, we usually do a short presentation on a Unix/Linux topic. This month it’ll be the watch command used for continuously running a command and watching the output.

On the latest #ATPpodcast I heard @siracusa pronounce the HEIC image format as a word - "heek" [hiːk]. He is the first human I have heard pronounce it as a word. I feel like, for me, it will always be "H E I C".
There are several acronyms I treat this way, that I've heard others say as words, thinking about it.
PNG, SVG, BMP, IFF, SQL, URL, LED, GUI, PDF, PCMCIA (well...), etc.
I am old and set in my ways.
By the way, GIF is not on that list because I pronounce it as a word starting with a soft G, because that is how that is pronounced.

『… in-kernel file system that uses Bε trees to organize on-disk storage. Bε trees are a write-optimized dictionary, and offer the same asymptotic behavior for sequential I/O and point queries as a B-tree. The advantage of a B ε tree is that it can also ingest small, random writes 1-2 orders of magnitude faster than B-trees and other standard on-disk data structures.』

Things I like about FreeBSD:
"You can tune a file system, but you cannot tune a fish."
is still listed as a bug in the tunefs man page on FreeBSD 14.3
I first saw it more that 30 years ago on SunOS that was BSD based at the time.
