By all accounts, TigerBeetle has been a tremendous success, congratulations! My understanding is that it has a deliberately fixed scope, which makes me wonder: how applicable would…

Indeed: https://research.google/blog/extra-extra-read-all-about-it-n... P.S. I can’t believe this happened over 20 years ago, I must be old.

In this instance latency must’ve been 10 years, per my memory this paper came out in 1994

I think it’s hard to truly appreciate any sport you haven’t played yourself. I personally cannot get excited about baseball, and it’s probably mostly because of my own lack of play…

I agree with most points, but I believe the main reason behind TigerBeetle’s lack of memory errors is that they follow the power of 10 rules and do not manage memory dynamically be…

While I don’t have personal experience with either project, I feel it is safe to say that Bun and TigerBeetle are not comparable projects: TigerBeetle has a strong focus on testing…

Your point is completely invalidated by useless name calling. The people behind cargo are clearly accomplished and serious individuals, and even if you disagree with some of the ch…

Somewhat related: Jiff ( https://github.com/BurntSushi/jiff ) is a Rust library inspired by the Temporal api.

Great write-up. And, thanks mitchellh for Ghostty, I switched to it last year, and have not regretted it. However, I am a somewhat surprised that the fix is reserved for a feature …

SSH was around, but not nearly as pervasive it is today. I have memories of having to shake my mouse around during the windows client installation to generate entropy. Fun times

The typestate pattern common in Rust applications allows the compiler to verify that the operations are executed in the right order and that previous states are not accidentally re…

There is, in fact, a spec to read[1], as of earlier this year. [1] https://rustfoundation.org/media/ferrous-systems-donates-fer...

It might actually be the silver lining of this particular bubble if Oracle were to go out of business.

Fil-C is an innovative approach and a great technical achievement. However, I wouldn't suggest that it is an universal solution without caveats. For instance, the performance penal…

I appreciate the candor, and I agree that auto-adaptation probably makes sense in this use case because the workloads are unknown and varied.

Great write up, focusing on facts without fingerpointing. But I must admit I was somewhat surprised Cloudflare was not already proactively monitoring and tuning the generation size…

I am curious, does anyone know what is the use case that mandates the use of git on NonStop? Do people actually commit code from this platform? Seems wild.
