   Further, the complexity and need for flexibility is exactly the problems that I'm trying to deal with here. That's why the challenge encourages splitting the allocator up in Unix-like pieces and stacking them to get the desired fe

   Not if they're writing C/C++; it doesn't really matter how hard you try to hide memory management when the whole language is designed around memory and pointers. What kind of programmer is that, anyway? Who can only program s

   Pushing the state of the art in application level memory management? Too lofty? Come on, it's fun :)

   Good call, writing C/C++ without having a grip on memory allocation is a recipe for exactly the kind of disaster we're in right now :)

    Second Tufte, read all of them several times and they've influenced everything since. Raskin's "The Humane Interface: New Directions for Designing Interactive Systems" is another good one, puts a lot of solid research in

    Wasn't really trying to sell anything and I can't see the connection between micro services and factory factories, except that they were both once the next big thing. I'm just saying at least it's getting better for the

    While there are a couple of guys still shaving that yak, today it's more or less Jetty micro services all the way. Still Java but a huge step forward from the J2EE abstraction astronaut crap you had to put up with for a while. Configur

    We're already seeing certain aspects of consciousness simulated using said algorithms. Nobody is claiming to be able to do the whole shebang as far as I know. It's black box reverse engineering at it's finest. I'm pretty
