They are rewritten in C++ already; Redpanda and ScyllaDB, respectively. Why waste the effort of rewriting it once again?

(S)he was wrong. There is no first-in-first-out principle in Sweden, neither by law nor by practice. Instead the last to enter _may_ be the first to leave, but the employer can choose to withhold two persons. Also, this arithmetic is determ

If there are currents, there ought to be eddies as well. Where there are eddies, you usually find flotsam. Is it too far fetched that there could be regions with seemingly strange behavior, if observed individually and isolated?

Ahh. So the class action lawsuit 3:20-cv-7842 [1] in the US district court for the northern district of California cannot possibly be valid since it names AIRBNB, INC. and AIRBNB PAYMENTS, INC. as defendants? K. 231 [1] https://f

These guys are really amazing. I have been following their work for quite some time, starting with my interest in unikernels and thus OSv. Take a look at Seastar (C*) [1] and ScyllaDB [2]. Some companies are powerhouses! [1] http:/&#x

They were not very different under the hood. In fact, many units within the OS were similarly/equally named. The UI was a different beast all together and I remember the UI crashing in WinNT 3.51 while the kernel and services were happ

These are not what I would call mental models. These are strategies (in various forms) and, as such, relatively vague strategies for assembling mental models. Mental models live on a continuum ranging from directly incorrect to accurate. Yo
