TensorRT 6.x.x.x — high-performance inference for deep learning models (Object Detection and Segmentation)

It only hurts the first time! Hello everyone! Dear friends, in this article, I want to share my experience using TensorRT and RetinaNet based on the repository github.com/aidonchuk/retinanet-examples (this is a fork of the official repo from NVIDIA, which will allow you to start using optimized models in production in a short time). As I scroll through messages in the ods.ai community channels, I encounter questions about using TensorRT, and […]

Linux: Removing the blocking pool from /dev/random

As you know, /dev/random, the cryptographically secure random number generator (CSPRNG), has one unpleasant problem – blocking. This article discusses how to resolve it. In recent months, random number generation in the kernel has been slightly revised, but issues in this subsystem have been addressed over a broader timeframe. The most recent changes were made […]

What to encrypt in a corporate system? And why do it?

An asynchronous implementation of DISCARD is introduced for Btrfs

An asynchronous implementation of the DISCARD operation (tagging freed blocks that can no longer be physically stored) has been presented for the btrfs file system, developed by engineers at Facebook. The essence of the problem: in the original implementation, DISCARD is executed synchronously with other operations, which in some cases leads to performance issues since it requires waiting for the corresponding commands to complete with the storage devices, consuming additional time. This can become […]

Eric Ciaramella as an example of Wikipedia/Google censorship.

In this article, I will share how I was banned on the English subdomain of Wikipedia for political reasons, how a large number of information companies censor "He Who Must Not Be Named". Just look up "Eric Ciaramella" on YouTube and try to edit, you will get a 404 error (this is before downvoting karma, the comment will be deleted, I'm betting). I will also share what I've learned over the last […]
