Dev creates astrology-powered CPU scheduler for Linux, makes decisions based on planetary positions and zodiac signs — sched_ext framework informed by lunar phases, cosmic weather reports, and dynamic

‘Why let mere mortals decide CPU priorities when the cosmos can guide us?’ asks the developer.

To be clear, the point of this is to demonstrate the power and flexibility of a new Linux feature in a "haha only serious" way.

Zampieri is clear that this GPL-2.0 licensed project is a “scientifically dubious, cosmically hilarious” work. It definitely isn’t recommended for use in production systems - not because of bugs, but because it works as intended… The dev is still looking to add “more cosmic chaos” to scx_horoscope, so contributors are welcome.

[Meta] (H)Ask Anything Thread?

On /r/Haskell there was a pinned, monthly thread so that people could ask questions without creating a new top-level post.

  • I'd like to increase traffic to here (or some other Haskell Fediverse threaded-conversation group). Do you think a thread like that might help?
  • Does pinning work here? It's probably not necessary given the posts/month currently, but I suppose it's something to keep in mind.
  • Anyone got a link to Lemmy/KBin/ActivityPub Haskell library that I could use to write a bot, or some other way to schedule a post for yyyy-mm-01T00:00:00Z ?
