Turso and libSQL: SQLite at the Edge With Embedded Replicas

Turso and libSQL: SQLite at the Edge With Embedded Replicas

Turso is a distributed SQLite service built on libSQL , an MIT-licensed fork of SQLite. It adds embedded replicas: local SQLite files that sync from a primary database in the cloud. Reads happen at local-disk speed, under 200 nanoseconds in benchmarks. Writes go to one primary region. You get sub-millisecond reads and read-your-writes consistency for less than a managed Postgres bill. You install the client SDK, point it at a Turso URL and a local file path, and your app reads from a replica that stays in sync on its own.

Containerize Your Entire Dev Environment with Distrobox: A Complete Guide

Containerize Your Entire Dev Environment with Distrobox: A Complete Guide

Want to test a build on Ubuntu 24.04 while running Arch? Want CUDA 12.x on a stable Debian host without touching the host drivers? Want six Node.js versions that don’t fight each other? Distrobox is the shortest path there. It’s a POSIX shell wrapper around Podman , Docker , or Lilipod . The containers feel like native shells, and they run just as smoothly inside a terminal built for instant redraws as on a plain console. Your home directory, Wayland socket, GPU, SSH keys, Git config, and audio all wire in for you. GUI apps you install inside show up in the host menu.

WCAG 2.2 Data Tables: Sorting, Filtering, Keyboard Navigation

WCAG 2.2 Data Tables: Sorting, Filtering, Keyboard Navigation

The short answer: build an interactive data table with semantic HTML (<table>, <thead>, <th scope="col">), add ARIA attributes (aria-sort, aria-live, aria-controls), and wire up keyboard handlers that enable sorting, filtering, and cell-by-cell navigation without a mouse. Done right, the result satisfies WCAG 2.2 Level AA, works for sighted users, screen reader users, and keyboard-only users, and needs no framework dependencies .

This guide walks through the markup, the ARIA attributes, the JavaScript event handlers, and the performance trade-offs you hit once your dataset gets large. The reference patterns come from the WAI-ARIA Authoring Practices Guide sortable table example and the grid pattern .

sched_ext: Write a Custom Linux Kernel Scheduler in eBPF

sched_ext: Write a Custom Linux Kernel Scheduler in eBPF

sched_ext (SCX) is a Linux kernel framework that lets you implement CPU schedulers in eBPF and hot-swap them at runtime without rebooting or recompiling the kernel. It merged into mainline in Linux 6.12 and matured through 7.0, which tightened its interaction with the default EEVDF class. On any distro shipping a kernel with CONFIG_SCHED_CLASS_EXT=y, loading a new scheduler takes a single command, for example sudo scx_loader --start scx_lavd, and you confirm it is active by reading /sys/kernel/sched_ext/root/ops.

Python Monorepo with uv Workspaces and Ruff: Complete Setup Guide

Python Monorepo with uv Workspaces and Ruff: Complete Setup Guide

uv workspaces give Python a Cargo-style monorepo setup. You get one lockfile, one virtual environment, and auto-resolved inter-package dependencies. Cold installs finish in seconds, not minutes. Pair uv with Ruff for linting and formatting, and the pair replaces Poetry, Black, isort, flake8, and pip-tools in one shot. The rest of this post covers workspace setup, inter-package deps, Ruff config, CI, publishing, and the traps that snag teams moving off older tools.
