Speaker: Robbie McKennie
If you’ve used GNU/Linux a bit, you’ll be used to thinking of the mount table, the network interface list, the file hierarchy… just one of each, all visible to all processes. The kernel in fact supports having multiple instances of each of these, so that you can arrange for different processes to see different resources on the same system: a feature called namespaces. Robbie will go through some of the practical applications of this feature, focusing in particular on building and managing networks.
Topic 2/2: Lazy coding with NeoVim
Speaker: Tim-Hinnerk Heuer
Tim-Hinnerk Heuer will take a break from his beloved competitive coding long enough to show us a demo of how he programs using NeoVim, the modern Vim rewrite, in as lazy but still lightning-fast a way as he can. With a bit of luck, this will include some LLM assistance, possibly even with an open-source model…
