Event Modeling Introduction
Event Modeling Introduction
Event Modeling can be applied in designing systems that will store state in traditional databases. By providing a more thorough design, the solution can be implemented with a lot less waste that usually comes in the form of having to re-visit finished items as the solution is built up.

The Bespoke Supercomputing Architecture That Stood the Test of Time - The Next Platform
In the history of computing, there has been an endless push and pull between the need for general-purpose versus fine-tuned custom systems and software. While general purpose will, by nature, prevail on leadership-class HPC, the work done in meticulous world of ASIC design, system and software optimization filters into architectural thinking eventually. In the case

Trace Context
Trace Context
This specification defines standard HTTP headers and a value format to propagate context information that enables distributed tracing scenarios. The specification standardizes how context information is sent and modified between services. Context information uniquely identifies individual requests in a distributed system and also defines a means to add and propagate provider-specific context information.

Simplifying Complexity: The Journey from WebSockets to HTTP Streams
Simplifying Complexity: The Journey from WebSockets to HTTP Streams
This article explores the transition from a WebSocket-based implementation to a simpler, more direct stream over HTTP in the context of capturing touch screen inputs on Linux. It begins by introducing the main theme, encapsulated in the statement Everything is a file is a stream of byte. The need to capture finger positions on a touchscreen by reading /dev/input/events in Linux is initially discussed, followed by a dilemma of transferring this data to a JavaScript client in a browser. Initially, WebSockets are chosen, leading to a discussion on how frameworks often shape our technological choices and the challenges faced in debugging WebSocket connections. The article then introduces an alternative about sending a stream of bytes over HTTP, drawing a parallel to Linux’s approach to handling devices and files. Serialization, the process of encoding messages for this stream, is discussed next, highlighting the implementation specifics in GoLang and its native advantages. The final section covers how to receive and decode this stream in JavaScript within a worker thread, and then send the decoded messages to the main thread using post requests. The article concludes by reflecting on the benefits of simplicity in technology, urging readers to reevaluate default choices and consider more straightforward solutions to complex problems.

The Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA) You've heard of EdDSA right? The shiny and new signature scheme (well new, it's been here since 2008, wake up). Since its inception, EdDSA has evolved quite a lot, and some amount of standardization process has happened to it. It's even doomed to be adopted by the NIST in FIPS 186-5! First, some definition: EdDSA stands for Edwards-curve Digit ...
