I recently read a blog post (that I'm pretty sure I found here on HN) about a person who had access to AWS P5 instances and decided to write their program to saturate the full bandwidth of these instance types. It was a multi part series and I'd only read a couple of the posts. Now I've been tearing my hair apart searching for this post but can't seem to find it.

Anyone knows what I'm talking about and has a link for me?

I'm setting up a new machine with Windows on it for a family member. Since I've personally not used Windows in over a decade, I'm a little disconnected from its current best practices.

I remember setting up an antivirus back in those days. The recent article on Avast let me know that AV software is apparently not a popular thing anymore. So what should I be doing? This machine is for the exclusive use of my parents (50+). They're kind of good at detecting scams and stuff, I haven't really needed to give support for the old machine in 5-7 years.

What are the current recommendations for setting up a machine with some security?

I have been a full time Linux user for over 10 years now, at home and professionally. For a new job, I will now be using Windows to develop software.

Do you people have any tips for a long time Linux user to feel comfortable / at home using Windows?

Some things important to me are: 1. Shell: I believe the WSL can help me here. 2. Keyboard centric life 3. Tiling Window management: I use bspwm and cannot imagine a life without tiling
