Linux block maintainer and IO_uring lead developer Jens Axboe recently was debugging some slowdowns in the AHCI/SCSI code with IO_uring usage.

The majority of young Americans want to leave the country, a new report from the American Psychological Association showed that 63% of Americans between the ages of 18 and 34 were thinking about emigrating. 🌍
There are 53% of such parents. In the whole country, anxiety is even higher: 76% of adults admitted that they are worried about the state of the country — political division, instability and a sense of uncertainty about the future. Many of the respondents feel isolated and tired. 😟
People who are particularly hard—pressed by the division in the country are more likely to complain of anxiety and health problems - they have higher levels of chronic diseases and fatigue. 🩺
People with high levels of loneliness are more likely to cancel appointments, sleep poorly, and stop taking care of themselves. 🛌
69% of Americans are worried about fakes, 57% are worried about the growing influence of AI, especially young people and parents. 🤖
But 84% are confident that they will be able to build a good life, and 73% believe that they can change the country's future for the better. 💪

👂More on Trump's Ear
President Donald Trump's administration is now aiming to make the voting process harder for college-age young adults ahead of November's midterm elections.
That's according to a Monday op-ed by MS NOW's Ja'han Jones, who wrote that the Trump administration's Department of Education may be exploring a way to curb young voter turnout with a newly announced investigation into Tufts University. The Education Department announced its new probe in a recent press release, saying the Boston, Massachusetts-based school may have been "illegally sharing college students’ data with third parties to influence elections."
The investigation is centered on Tufts' National Study of Learning, Voting, and Engagement (NSLVE). Tufts describes the NSLVE as "a service to over 1,000 U.S. colleges and universities that can use it to understand and improve their student voting rates." However, the Trump administration is saying the program could have potentially violated the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act.
"American colleges and universities should be focused on teaching, learning, and research — not influencing elections," Education Secretary Linda McMahon stated. "The Biden Administration, with little to no regard for student privacy laws, openly encouraged institutions to share and utilize student data in order to target certain populations."
