Prometheus JMX Exporter 1.6.0

Опубликован Prometheus JMX Exporter 1.6.0 — выпуск экспортёра, предназначенного для сбора значений JMX MBean из Java-приложений и выдачи их в виде метрик Prometheus. При соответствующей настройке JMX Exporter также может отправлять данные через OpenTelemetry. Код проекта распространяется под лицензией Apache-2.0.

JMX Exporter можно запускать в нескольких режимах: как Java-агент внутри целевой JVM, как standalone-экспортёр для опроса удалённого JMX/RMI и как isolator Java agent для нескольких изолированных экспортёров в одной JVM. В документации Java agent указан как рекомендуемый вариант для большинства пользователей, так как он позволяет обойтись без настройки удалённого JMX/RMI.

The circus freaks of open source

The masterwork of Terry A. Davis is his eclectic operating system, TempleOS, which he worked on until his tragic death in 2018. In terms of technical excellence, TempleOS rates well in some respects and poorly in others. For example, it earns the achievement, coveted in OS dev circles, of being self-hosted.1 TempleOS is written in Terry’s own bespoke dialect of C and includes an editor, interpreter, and compiler, as well as a number of original games. In other respects, it compares poorly to many hobby OS projects, some of which have achieved significantly greater levels of technical excellence and sophistication....

80Retros x HMX Monochrome

After spending a fair amount of time with the KTT x 80Retros GAME 1989 Orange, I figured it was about time to take a closer look at the HMX-side of the 80Retros catalogue. The 80Retros x HMX Monochrome have been with me for a while, ever since I picked them up back in Seoul. The switches stand out from the rest of the 80Retros lineup as they don’t ship in a film canister, and they have a fairly boring black and white colorway.

The 80Retros x HMX collaboration comprises of a handful of linear switches, amongst others the KD200 (a Kodak-yellow homage), the FJ400 (a Fujifilm-green homage), the GAME...

20 years of blogging: a two-decade journey through web gaming history

Today, my blog turns 20! From the golden age of Adobe Flash in 2006 to WebGPU and 3D browsers in 2026, it’s been a wild ride. No self-praise today, just a huge THANK YOU to the dev community and a quick trip down web gaming memory lane

Photography Workflow with ~~Darktable on Linux~~ Lightroom on GrapheneOS

Disclaimer: I had initially prepared this post under the title Photography Workflow with Darktable on Linux, but after endless fights with Darktable I eventually decided to scrap that workflow altogether and look for an alternative. The workflow documented herein is unfortunately very far from the result I was striving for, yet it is sadly the best I can put together given the current state of open-source RAW development and photo editing software.

After I gave Adobe the finger back in 2019 and moved my photography workflow to Capture One on a MacBook, I eventually had to reconsider this approach when I moved back to Linux on the desktop and...
