This is one of those incredibly clearly written technical articles by someone who really knows their stuff that brings together a few things I understood vaguely into a coherent understanding. Lines like:
> There’s a per-kernel sync(), per-filesystem syncfs(), per-file fsync() and fdatasync(), per-mmap msync(), and per-file-range sync_file_range().
Incidentally, the CoreOS has one of the best home pages that I've ever encountered. "These are our main products, and for each of them here's an information icon that you can click that will actually inform you what they do and what they're for".
I would like to hire whoever wrote those descriptions too - clear concise explanation of what things do and why you'd want them.
