『… in-kernel file system that uses Bε trees to organize on-disk storage. Bε trees are a write-optimized dictionary, and offer the same asymptotic behavior for sequential I/O and point queries as a B-tree. The advantage of a B ε tree is that it can also ingest small, random writes 1-2 orders of magnitude faster than B-trees and other standard on-disk data structures.』

VS Code extension to edit the filesystem like a text buffer
I wanted to store some #BorgBackup archives on an #exFAT disk so that any operating system (not just #Linux) could easily read it, but Borg needs a journaling #filesystem. 
In theory, there isn't any reason why journaling can't be implemented on FAT 
but everybody probably doesn't consider it worth the effort.
#NTFS would work too, except some of the #Linux machines I run Borg on are running Debian Stable, whose old kernel lacks the ntfs3 driver. 
Things I like about FreeBSD:
"You can tune a file system, but you cannot tune a fish."
is still listed as a bug in the tunefs man page on FreeBSD 14.3
I first saw it more that 30 years ago on SunOS that was BSD based at the time.

A Higgs-bugson in the Linux Kernel - by Nikhil Jha
https://blog.janestreet.com/a-higgs-bugson-in-the-linux-kernel/
My daughter has a friend whose sibling is no longer alive, as of recently. The family wants to access their MacBook Pro which is password protected. It's a fairly recent model, apparently, and it's unclear whether the disk is encrypted -- prob safe to assume it is (?).
Is there something Apple can/will do to help the family gain access, given proof of the situation?
