I think that's one of the key differences between REST and other kinds of RPC architectures. I've used SOAP and JSON-RPC, both of which (at least in many implementations) send RPCs as HTTP POST requests and receive 200 responses w

Isn’t SOAP theoretically “transport agnostic”. It doesn’t leverage http verbs either.

I don't know that it's the time delay that's important, as much as unknown external forces acting on the system? If the problem was just that it took a known amount of time for the vehicle's angle to change, wouldn'

If our variable here is position (which I'm assuming since the spring rate is proportional), wouldn't the damper settings be a coefficient of the derivative term?

Are you saying that a PID controller would not work in a system without time delay? Or in a system without time delay, a PID controller would function identically to a simpler controller (A proportional-only controller perhaps)? My understa

I believe if you are on a UEFI system, “systemctl reboot” has some flags to let you select boot options.

I don't believe that's correct? https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/1006 I believe this may be the same law referred to as "the headshot" in HBO's The Wire? The creator of the

That makes sense. I was thinking about the case of using a TPM to unlock full disk encryption as long as secure boot hashes checked out.

by ahepp 3y ago
I guess thinking about it more, that does check out. The kernel loads shared libraries, and containers share the kernel.

Cool article! I would argue that /var is kinda explicitly for writing stuff to, so I would mount a tmpfs overlay on top of it as a more durable solution than mounting tmpfs on explicit directories inside it. In fact, I am interested in

Wait I'm not following, why must the decompressed contents of the initramfs fit within half of physical ram? Initramfs (and tmpfs) are swappable right? As you say, ramfs is the one that isn't swappable. So if your initramfs is &qu

This might be what you're looking for? IIRC it was written for the older cgroup (v1) sysfs interface, so you may need to cross reference it with the cgroup2 documentation https://ericchiang.github.io/post/container

Are you saying that two containers running the same image will share their common libraries in the host kernel's memory? Based on my understanding of cgroups, that seems unintuitive to me. Are you certain that's the case? I may tr

Deduplication, in the sense of physical space reduction, seems like the least strong argument one could make for dynamic linking these days. The strongest argument I can think of, is enabling system managers (distro maintainers, even end us

There's some interesting background the movie as well, with Elia Kazan's testimony to anti-communist tribunals in the US. Plus it has an incredible score.

I think their point is that a straightforward reading of the statement “this had good consequences for all of humanity” would need to be evaluated by examining the finite equivalent “there does not exist a member of humanity for whom this h

Are filesystems the correct abstraction to build databases on? Isn’t a filesystem a database in a way? Is there a reason to build a database on top of a filesystem abstraction rather than a block abstraction? To say you can’t build an effic

Is it an abstraction for requesting the data you want, or an abstraction for storing the data in a retrievable manner?

In terms the article puts forth, I would almost argue that simple implies deep (and the associated “narrow” interface).

Is Dune (as a series) really an endorsement of consequentialism? Frank Herbert wrote a lot of books, and it was a long time ago that I read them. I don’t remember the consequences ever being particularly great for anyone.
