The huge page article is sequitur with official documentation like https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_enterprise_.... THP can only issue up to 2MB pages on amd64 so it's not necessarily a silver bullet for large persistent consumers like a DB or GC language and worth knowing about the older methods.
To me they look like marketing posts, but they aren't void of effort or meaning as a quick intro to various topics.
> sequitur
I love the malapropisms on hn because it always reeks of "I'm trying so hard to sound smart" lol. FYI non-sequitur doesn't mean "non-sequential" it means "illogical" (and thus sequitur doesn't mean "in sequence"). Also both of words these are nouns not adjectives.
Is this a performance art where you do the thing you accuse? "malapropism" is a five dollar word if "sequitur" is. The use tracks with the Latin or English definitions, what does any of this have to do with sequential? I imply the article is probably not simple AI slop because it follows official documentation. Add "a" in front of it if your worth is determined by neckbearding a borrowed verb that can only noun in the lease.

No it doesn't
> sequitur noun : the conclusion of an inference : consequence

It is of course but I spent my $5 wisely because my use is syntactically and semantically correct.
