Am I the only one who was expecting a design guide for consistent and partition-tolerant systems?

Am I the only one who was expecting a design guide for consistent and partition-tolerant systems?
- hkkwritesgmail 4y agoImagined that the author must have dropped the A because all CAP is not possible !
- fabiensanglard 4y agoIt could have been worse. The initial title was "The book of CPS". Which HN told me could also be interpreted as Child Protection Services.
- whizzter 4y agoCould've been "The book of CP-System arcades" (Even me as an old gamedev was wodnering why the Wolf/Doom guy was doing distributed systems :D )
- EuAndreh 4y agoOr even Continuation Passing Style.
- pezezin 4y agoIn emulators and the like I always see it written as CPS1/2/3, so why not "the book of CPS1"?
- fabiensanglard 4y agoI do talk a bit about the CPS-2 in it. Especially the outstanding on-the-fly 68000 .text decryption system that pretty much closed the market to bootleggers (it was only cracked decades later).
- pyrolistical 4y agoI think a book describing only CP systems would be valuable. There are very few AP systems that make sense and CA systems are a lie.
- sedatk 4y agoI expected it to be about CP/CMS on an IBM VM/SP operating system.
