2/ And to quote one bit from @corbet's[1] great #OSSNA25 talk:
""[…] there will be no core development conferences around #Linux and other things in the United States in the foreseeable future. […] this is a real problem […]""
Yes, this is not a formal announcement[2] – but it bears some weight, as Jonathan is well connected and among others sits in the Linux Foundation's Technical Advisory Board (TAB).

ICYMI: the recording of @corbet's recent #OSSNA25 talk "Three Decades in Kernelland" recently became available:

From the abstract[1]: The #Linux #kernel project has been going for well over 30 years. From its beginnings on floppy diskettes and beige boxes through to its current home in pockets and unseen data centers, the kernel project has been a constant exercise in rapid development and adaptation. I have been present for almost all of the kernel project's history as an observer, contributor, maintainer, and more; all that experience will be boiled down into a fast-moving tour of how the #LinuxKernel got to where it is, what makes it successful, and what may be coming next.

Using machine learning to optimize/fine-tune the #Linux #kernel at runtime to the needs of the workload – this is something I guess we'll see way more often in the future.
The recent #ossna25 talk "Improve Load Balancing With Machine Learning Techniques Based on the #sched_ext Framework" from Ching-Chun ("Jim") Huang gives a glimpse into such a future.
