There is a detailed post on timestamps at http://swarmjs.github.io/articles/lamport/ Lamport timestamps are "guaranteed" to be unique.

The very general response is: Swarm.js is CRDT and thus more async-friendly. It may survive failures all along the chain (db to server, server to client, client to cache, etc). It may synchronize with multiple sources: WebSocket to the serv

There are some articles on plain text CRDTs on my academic homepage [1]. Causal Trees are the same family as WOOT, Logoot and TreeDoc. Also, we did a RichText implementation for one-$10bn-company-that-forbids-to-mention-its-name-too-often.

Thanks, we'll check that.

TodoMVC hardly needs that, but otherwise we are working on an IndexedDB storage implementation. Our Storage interface is asynchronous anyway. So, no problem. Cache eviction is also applicable here.

The Flux+Swarm TodoMVC was mentioned in the post. These are orthogonal things. https://github.com/andreypopp/todomvc-flux-swarm

There are CRDT implementations for: * plain text * rich text * maps,sets * by-column Last-Write-Wins objects * vectors * counters ...and many other useful things.

Recently I was talking with a guy doing CRDT research. His past background was something CPU design related. I always considered a CPU a Newton/Turing ideal machine. I was surprised to know that it feels more like a distributed system.

I'm the author (the leading one) of Yandex Live Letters, which is a CRDT-based EtherPad-like thing. Some flavours of CRDT are indeed related to OT. My favorite technique (pure op-based CRDT variant) is very much operation-centric, but

First of all, I know what I am talking about; I published on the subject, I also created a working system (CRDT-based). Second, in my understanding, transactions don't deal with partial order; they do linearization. That indeed require

by gritzko 13y ago
Repeatedly rewriting operations in-flight is probably the worst trick one can use to deal with partial order.

PPSP as such was designed to have shorter init cycles. So, in principle, it is suitable for smaller assets (federated CDN, that sort of stuff). By the way I do not understand the "servers vs P2P" story. Why not use servers in a PP

Hell yes! Folks from Saint Petersburg shop in Finland. They even order parcels to Finnish addresses next to the border because Russian mail sucks badly. Once I was crossing from Finland to SPb and I was questioned by customs on whether I&#x

Well, guys constructed a trebuchet, which is in the X-XV century range. Then, Berkut made a counter-attack to destroy it. So, it really worked. Otherwise, it is a war of the nerves mostly.

Well, the core OCR/HWR function of Evernote was developed by a different company, in a sense. The company was headed by Pachikov who is a veteran of the HWR field. He is currently retired, to the best of my knowledge. I am not sure, wh
