L’hanno fatto (links)

Troppe persone piu` qualificate di me hanno commentato l’annuncio di Apple, il loro passaggio all’architettura x86. Riporto i link:

Il mondo informatico sta ricominciando a diventare interessante, dopo anni di noia…

UPDATE: Sara` un caso che oggi mi sia arrivata una mail di IBM che mi invita ad una conferenza dal titolo “Migrating and developing new applications for Linux“? :)

Due cose per Os X

Due “mai piu` senza”:

  • la piu` bella da vedere e` XRG, o X Resource Graph. Provare per credere.
  • meno bello da vedere, ma interessante ugualmente: fs_usage da CLI. Dice l’inizio della manpage:

    NAME
    fs_usage — report system calls and page faults related to filesystem
    activity in real-time

    SYNOPSIS
    fs_usage [-e] [-w] [-f mode [-f mode] …] [pid|cmd [pid|cmd] …]

    DESCRIPTION
    The fs_usage utility presents an ongoing display of system call usage
    information pertaining to filesystem activity. It requires root privi-
    leges due to the kernel tracing facility it uses to operate. By default
    the activity monitored includes all system processes except the running
    fs_usage process, Terminal, telnetd, sshd, rlogind, tcsh, csh and sh.
    These defaults can be overridden such that output is limited to include
    or exclude a list of processes specified by the user.

    quando non e` chiaro chi stia facendo I/O sul disco, puo` venir comodo.
