    Oh, you should try OpenSpec !

    Not Op. For 1), yes, there is an "observe" step in the process where - when the project is deployed - it observes and reconciles what happens vs what should happen based on specs. …

    Question to the one that tested it : Does it still timeout a lot with unreliable response time (1-5 sec) ?

    At some point, the community is also responsible for the demanding expectation of a "not slow" compiler. What's "slow"? What's "fast"? It depends. It depends on the program, the pr…

    You can go one step further if : - you don't reallocate the array - you don't allow updating/ removing past inserted values In essence it become a log, a Vec > or a Vec >>. Works w…

    I think you misread : - 2 actors on 1 thread = OK - 1 actor on 2 thread = you are probably doing it wrong. As for the rest, whether or not they are used in communication systems an…

    > multiple actors can run on a single thread. Right. It's not a very widespread use case, to be honest. You'd find that most would be N actors for M threads (where N I think you sh…

    What's the reason for using Async for an Actor framework ? They run in separate tasks / threads anyway and they are cpu-bound. So, why would it be necessary to make them async ?

    For the (un)bounded logs, the whole concept reside on the fact that the log isn't going to move once allocated, and that references to an item will never be invalided until the end…

    in the case of a bounded log, readers are expected to give an offset at which they want to perfom the read (kafka-like). So the linked list would involve going through all the link…

    Comment #39552099

    I used the same approach while designing a lock-free bounded broadcast log (as in a "RWLock >"; a MCMP, append-only Vec). It's quite easy to do because it's bounded. However, I cou…

    It also excludes the Toyota Prius and a few other hybrid because they weight more than 1.6t, despite not being an SUV. FYI, a Zoe weights 1.5t
