Oh this is cool! I should have checked more pointers. On my machine, the single pointer was always null, and I read up on stack being initialized to zero. I didn't realize the things-before-main could mess up the stack so much.

I should have made that clearer, thanks! If there were intervening function calls there would be garbage. Then it would only "most likely" segfault instead of always segfault.

This project looks really cool! I'm very curious to find out more about how you make sure constants are correct across platforms and architectures. I will be poking around!

Author here. This is a really valid criticism of the post, and I think it'll inform the next post I write on the topic. Thanks!

I was almost excited! From the FAQ on the project you linked [0]: > Q: Why doesn't this project mention distribution? > A: Distribution, for example using HTTP as both Docker v2.2 and AppC do today, is currently out of scope on t

This is pretty great! Looking forward to more service worker support for more offline and push notifications.

I'm not sure of the current status, but I believe the mechanism would be to label nodes with rack information. You'd then be able to specify anti-affinity constraints based on those labels that would be taken into account by the s

I don't really know what the alternatives are. I'm hoping by the end of this series to convince at least myself that it's reasonably to run for personal projects.

My main resource is probably time. I read all the documentation when Kubernetes was first announced, and reread it when they were coming up to 1.0. I've also been following the proposals and issues a little. I've also got a clone

> But, in return for being more low-level, you can run things that are simply impossible in a declarative system like Kubernetes. Can you give an example? I know next to nothing about Mesos, Aurora, or Marathon.

Could you give some examples of places you mean?

The really easy part is it can happily run Docker containers: $ sudo bin/rkt --insecure-skip-verify run --interactive docker://busybox rkt: fetching image from docker://busybox Downloading cf2616975b4a

Thanks for those links. I'll definitely watch the first one to get an idea for organising the later posts. And yeah, pods are a great idea. I came across mtail [0], an awk-like language for tailing logs and turning them into metrics. P

Author here. Yeah, I'm hoping to use rkt instead of Docker when I actually put this all together. Docker wins for familiarity though, plus is the kubelet's default hence using it for this post.

What is the representation for a type like Box<Reader+Writer>? Is there an extra indirection to get each of the vtables? Is there synthesized combined trait type and just one vtable pointer?

It's from a more recent addition to the series, focused on performance. I reviewed that chapter and it's very well written.

Yeah, unfortunate. But we'll have sprints...

I believe it's a continuation-style server—hence fnid: function id—and the continuations are only kept around in memory for ~5 minutes.
