For databases that support transactions, there are different types of anomalies that can potentially occur: the higher the isolation level, the more classes of anomalies are eliminated (at a cost o…
Modeling B-trees in TLA+
I’ve been reading Alex Petrov’s Database Internals to learn more about how databases are implemented. One of the topics covered in the book is a data structure known as the B-tree. Rela…

Grapycal - A Visual Programming Language Based on Python
Grapycal is helpful for conducting experiments, including training AI, physical simulations, data analysis, computer art, and more. In the back-and-forth process between humans and machines, we need the higher interactivity provided by Grapycal to make the most of our creativity.
Why Solid?
For five years, I've dedicated most of my side-project time to making apps and tools using the Solid Protocol. Many share its vision, but it's also common to hear criticisms. I'm often asked why I'm still working on Solid, or told about another project that is doing a better job at solving similar problems.
Today, I'll go through some of the criticisms, share my own concerns, and answer why after all these years I'm still choosing Solid.
How eBPF is shaping the future of Linux and platform engineering
eBPF allows users to load and safely run custom programs within the Linux kernel, without requiring direct changes to the kernel itself. The possibilities are endless.

Distributed Computing Environment - Wikipedia
The Distributed Computing Environment (DCE) is a software system developed in the early 1990s from the work of the Open Software Foundation (OSF), a consortium founded in 1988 that included Apollo Computer (part of Hewlett-Packard from 1989), IBM, Digital Equipment Corporation, and others.[1][2] The DCE supplies a framework and a toolkit for developing client/server applications.[3] The framework includes:

CRCs and Reed-Solomon coding: better together
In my latest filesystem-themed post I discussed a technique to perform distributed resource management more safely. This time I'll explain how one might effectively combine _Reed-Solomon coding_ and _cyclic redundancy checks_. The first gives us redundancy (we can lose disks and still recover our data), the second protects us against data corruption.

Modern data storage needs three operating planes to work, the control, service and data planes. We explain what these provide.
BitTorrent - Wikipedia
BitTorrent, also referred to as simply torrent, is a communication protocol for peer-to-peer file sharing (P2P), which enables users to distribute data and electronic files over the Internet in a decentralized manner. The protocol is developed and maintained by Rainberry, Inc., and was first released in 2001.[2]

Netsukuku the Anarchical Parallel Internet || kuro5hin.org
Developed by the Freaknet, Netsukuku is a new p2p routing
system, which will be utilised to build a worldwide distributed, anonymous and
anarchical network, separated from the Internet, without the support of any
servers, ISPs or authority controls. In a p2p network every node
acts as a router, therefore in order to solve the problem of computing and
storing the routes for 2^128 nodes, Netsukuku makes use of a new
meta-algorithm, which exploits the chaos to avoid cpu consumption and fractals
to keep the map of the whole net constantly under the size of 2Kb.
Netsukuku includes also the Abnormal
Netsukuku Domain Name Anarchy, a non hierarchical and decentralised system of
hostnames management which replaces the DNS. It runs on GNU/Linux.
