Fair, we should add [2013] to the title though.

The article should really mention CALM (Consistency as Logical Monotonicity)[1], it's much easier to understand and a more fundamental result than CAP. It is also much more applicable and enables people with little experience to build

The CPU is disagreeing with you: https://ceur-ws.org/Vol-1291/ewili14_15.pdf Given the age of your account my guess is that you're still young with too strong opinions and too little experience. That's ok, we

But code as the formalisation of the problem is not seperatable from the understanding of its domain. The whole point of explorative REPL based programming is that it allows you to further your understanding of the problem. And the value is

You obviously didn't read the article and jumped to the conclusion that they are talking about immutably peristent data structures, which they are not. And even if they were talking about those (which they don't) your critique doe

And yet in all the examples the code seems to be overflowing the grid.

I'd love to hear about your absolute numbers. We had a similar problem, Datomic/Datascript not having an open format like RDF, but RDF being clunky and slow, so we build our own open-source solution in Rust ( https://git

I'd be curious to know what your thoughts on differential/timely dataflow are. Superficially it seems that it might be possible to integrate the existing Rust infrastructure from those libraries with DataFusion and Arrow, which co

Could you cite your sources? The only thing that I could find was that VerDi has a very good stance being PRO open-source software, and ANTI encryption and chat backdoors: ver.di setzt sich ein für die Nutzung und Förderung von Open-Sou

Do you use a specific browser? Looks broken-ish to me on most things but firefox, and on firefox the example play button also doesn't work for me. Super cool in theory though!

Commit hashes are essentially capabilities, you should be able to access any data that you have a capability for. But allowing access via a 16bit prefix is just idiotic, and equivalent to accepting just the first two bytes of a 256bit crypt

You're ignoring the case where I the author want to create a summary of my own work, to be published along side it.

Unsafe doesn't operate on that scope, and it's not about the language primitives but the features that let you to ensure things about their usage. Something I've just realized recently is that while not all Rust programs are

It certainly has a lot of overlap and is a very interesting project, but like most projects in this space, I feel like it's already doing too much. I think that might be because many of these systems also try to be user facing? E.g. it

More like based on the prior that all projects in that space arent' in the best of health. Thanks for the github link, that didn't pop up in my quick google search.

Yeah QUIC would probably be a good protocol for such a system. Roundtrips are also expensive, ideally your client library would probably cache as much data as the local disk can hold.

Yeah I've been following it on and off since it was camli-store. Maybe it tried to do too much at once and didn't focus on just the blob part enough, but I feel like it never really reached a coherent state and story.

Yeah, there are pleanty of dead and abandoned projects in this space. Maybe the concept is worthless without a tool for metadata management? Also I should probably have specified that by "missing" I mean, "there is nothing we

I get a > Trac detected an internal error: > IOError: [Errno 28] No space left on device So it looks like it is pretty dead like most projects in this space?

Yeah, and as far as I understood they use the key hash to address the overall object descriptor. So in theory using the hash of the file instead of the hash of the key should be a simple-ish change. Tbh I'm not sure if content aware ch

by j-pb 2y ago
Yeah, the subdirectories and mime-type seemed like an unnecessary complication. Also looks pretty dead.

Kademlia could certainly be a part of a solution to this, but it's a long road from the algorithm to the binary that you can start on a bunch of machines to get the service, e.g. something like SeaweedFS. BitTorrent might actually be t

What I'm really missing in this space is something like this for content addressed blob storage. I feel like a lot of complexity and performance overhead could be reduced if you only store immutable blobs under their hash (e.g Blake3).

Does anyone know any good FOSS projects that were actually funded by this? I feel like the people deciding what (research and technology) to fund in the EU generally have very poor taste in their selections. I assume that they are non-techn

This is probably the worst advice on Rust project organisation I've ever read. I absolutely loathe opening up a Rust project that adheres to zero defaults and uses makefiles where cargo would completely suffice. Unless you have a mixed
