Are you asking to compare mutexes and channels?
The article goes through multiple reasons why the go scheduler has more information about how something should execute than the Linux kernel.
Reread and then maybe rephrase?
Haha, I know the feeling well. So much to do. Hard to really get through one thing before finding an awesome next story or idea.
I don't think I've personally ever "gotten over" existential angst. I don't think I've ever tried because it's been with me for a while and I somehow came about experiencing it without hitting a deep depression. It's just there. Could have been the sets of fantasy books I read as a child/teenager allowing me to step outside myself mentally, or maybe it's a quirk of my upbringing. I was able to, and still am able to, think about suicide, the meaning of life, and how pointless it all is, while maintaining a relatively normal life.
I often explain to friends and/or family about how my logical/conscious self defaults to existential nihilism and they either go, "Uhhh, ok..." or say, "That's impossible. You care. You can't act the way you do and not care."
They're confused that I chose to live, I guess. So many people bias themselves towards a positive answer of the question: Does life have a meaning?
Many say, "Of course it does. If you really thought otherwise you wouldn't be alive."
For them it's:
"Life has meaning... so I must live"
"Life has no meaning... so I must die"
I think there's a funny middle:
"Life has no meaning... I... Well, I've got no idea, but I'm sure as hell not going to make a choice with no idea... I guess I'll see how it goes."
Good on you. I left a place a little while back that taught me all the things I now know to look out for when I eventually start my own business or interview at new places.
Seeing as it's Intel I might guess that they either have extra instructions in the instruction set they know about or other optimizations that they know to look for. Seeing as they only support 4th generation and E5 v3... it wouldn't surprise me.
I think ArchBang tries to do that. It might be a nice in-between for a new arch user's first time.
Then again, I think I had a set of other problems when I tried it.
I have spent a decent amount of time trying to understand all the steps of the process just so that I can troubleshoot without immediately needing to access the arch-wiki. The knowledge is nice to have, and building familiarity with the system one uses should never be seen as wasted time :)
The BIOS runs outside of the OS and helps all the parts of your computer speak to each other.
This is why the process is a bit more involved than just running an update from your OS's update manager.
The "binary blob" that's referred to when talking about GPU's is the huge piece of software that you have to download and install in order to make you graphics card able to use all of its features. Some graphics cards won't even use a display's full resolution without the correct driver.
This is different to the CPU in that there is no big downloaded driver sitting between you and it.
If you really want to understand where everything sits, you should check out a book or search for information on Computer Architecture.
