I sure hope they provide an accessibility option to turn down translucency to improve contrast or this UI is a non-starter for me. Without using it, this new UI looks like it may favor design over usability. Why don’t they do something more novel and let user tweak interface to their liking?
Plus he isn’t using oflag=direct, so since output file is small it isn’t even making it to disk. I think it would only be sent to page cache. I’m afraid he is testing CPU and memory (bus) speeds here.
oflag=direct will write direct and bypass page cache.
Exactly. Something is very fishy if this system only writes 1.6 GB/s to the page cache. Probably that dd command line quoted in the article is incomplete.
I don't think this would work as a lesspipe.sh viewer, since it is interactive.
I have wanted this for VisiData for data files. You would need a wrapper around less that could start other programs instead of less.

For regular use, I use ugrep’s %u option with its format feature to only get one match per line same as other grep tools.
Overall, I’m a happy user of ugrep. ugrep works as well as ripgrep for me. It’s VERY fast and has built-in option to search archives within archives recursively.
Any thoughts on a kneeling chair and whether it would be helpful or appropriate in dealing with a herniated L4/L5 disc in my lower back? I work in front of a computer all day.
I have a Varier Balans which I use a few hours a day and it's helped a lot with my back pain. The rocking and variable angle is a big part of it, I don't reckon the fixed ones would work as well.
