Well, the Pulsar broker is (kinda) stateless, because they are essentially a caching layer in front of BookKeeper. But where's your data actually stored then? In BookKeeper bookies, which are stateful. Killing and replacing/restarting a Bookkeeper node requires the same redistribution of data as required in Kafka’s case. (Additionally, BookKeeper needs a separate data recovery daemon to be run and operated, https://bookkeeper.apache.org/archives/docs/r4.4.0/bookieRec...)

So the comparison of 'Pulsar broker' vs. 'Kafka broker' is very misleading because, despite identical names, the respective brokers provide very different functionality. It's an apples-to-oranges comparison, like if you'd compare memcached (Pulsar broker) vs. Postgres (Kafka broker).

Once I was working for a company having single Motorola 68K based design. They were selling their ancient design without changes for decades. Motorola 68K disappeared from market, they moved to Coldfire, but then peripheral chips got obsolete. It was a big problem. Junior boss started buying everything he could find in Chinese Internet stores. Everything was fake!!! Sometimes parts were empty shells, no silicon inside, some parts were rebadged modern parts, some parts had silicon inside, but weren’t functional. Solution was found using some shady brokers. They delivered parts at 50x price. Ancient real time clocks were bought for 100$ a piece. It was still better than not delivering products to final customers. Re-Design was started porting the design to Xilinx ZynQ, but I left.
Lesson number 1: no Aliexpress parts in final products!
Lesson number 2: obsolescence of parts is a big deal, it comes more often than one is prepared for.
Lesson number 3: even for hobbyist Digikey or Mouser is a place to go. Free shipping to Germany buying for at least 50€. All parts worked as expected.

First of all, there is indeed SIMD code in the kernel. Check out the very beginning of your boot message.

More importantly, the kernel needs to support context switch between userspace applications that use SIMD registers. So it touches a bunch of critical data structures and event handlers.
It's sad that we still have to make async I/O explicit in the code to obtain some efficient concurrency in 2020.

Async/await is a huge improvement over callback hell, but this doesn't fix everything. The "function color" problem still exists [1], and seems to be more than binary in rust. This quote from the article is incredibly sad: "each async library, comes its own ecosystem of libraries, which only work with that async library".

Rust is ground breaking in some areas, but also completely lacks innovation in others.

But is it actually _necessary_ to resort to async I/O in Rust, given that the type system appears to make thread-based concurrency safe ?

Perhaps you think it strengthens your argument to use a miscategorisation that both you and most of your readers know to be a false equivalence. It does not. It shows you're happy to ignore the truth in order to cast those you disagree with as criminals; or, you're ignorant, which I doubt.

You don't need to be happy with IP infringement in order to be not-happy with corporate (group A) [criminal] destruction of the property of others (group C) based on tortuous infringement of a third party (group B).

Not to mention that IPR goes against an established culture in the country of some of the infringers (group B).

TRIPS Art.35 requires IC circuit layouts to be protected for 10 years (as in 17USC S.904), IIRC. I don't know Chinese law though, perhaps IC related IPR has lapsed for the chips in question?

The OP headline chip is 20 years old (edit: I had the date wrong). Counterfeit, trademark infringement, is wrong of course.

>What I do know is that I'll be damned if I am going to blame the victim. //

You seem happy that one of the victims, the unwitting purchaser of an item having an copied FTDI chip in it, gets punished? In preparation of the sui generis IC mask rights the USA senate committees apparently were careful to ensure that users - "innocent purchasers" they're referred as - could only be punished by paying a royalty and that devices would not be destroyed or confiscated. That seems balanced and avoids punishing victims beyond what is reasonable.

Sure. But if you're building a system down to a size, you're probably not that concerned about POSIX compliance, because mere POSIX compliance isn't enough beyond the most rudimentary of software. And if you're running something statically linked with minimal dependencies, it almost certainly requires a lot less than all things POSIX, so you can cut even further.

My point was on size, not POSIX compliance. I just found the actual sizes amusing.

The author start from within a silo. Many of today's developers don't have these expectations.

Operators are non-trivial software. Some of them are over 50k lines of code and still not near complete. It takes a fair amount of work to develop and test them.

It is sometimes implicitly shared that you MUST use an operator. There are times they are useful. There are many other times you don't need them. I'm still amazed at how often I can get away with a Kubernetes Deployment or StatefulSet and be just fine.

Getting a raise often becomes increasingly hard once you're working there for long enough. Switching jobs or even companies is often the best option to get a raise or better benefits.

> they're doing it to maintain or grow their position on the Indian market

That's not the main reason for moving manufacturing. You move manufacturing to exploit lower prices in the production chain (and other logistical considerations). It's why one $10 t-shirt is produced by work in 10 different countries, and why that too is constantly shifting. It's harder to "shift" a massive centralized tech industrial manufacturing system, but if the cost savings are there, you move.

I think everyone is now aware that China is finally developing a middle class and starting to clean up its rampant abuse of its environment, meaning it's going to cost more to manufacture there. Time to look for another developing nation to exploit, and India is a gigantic and attractive target with a lot of potential.

Building (and selling) cars is quite different than phones, advertising, or internet services. BMW produces mostly SUVs in its Spartanburg plant, and it sells most of those SUVs in the USA (its biggest market), so it's more profitable (tariffs, shipping, JIT, etc) to make them locally. All other BMWs in the USA are imported.

Manufacturing your tech in your biggest market (now or the future) may be unnecessary and less profitable if you can squeeze more out of the production chain in another country. China has just been so god damn cheap for so long (and so free with its loans) that it's totally fine if they aren't even one of your biggest markets. But they won't be that cheap for much longer, especially if the USG makes it harder/more expensive.

In local this is normally an issue with a neighbour, something for the HOA or something for Local Gov't. Just make them slackbot-esque buttons/commands. Give reacting features for others to support and you've turned decenters into your most active patrons.

The trick with social utility is only giving access to solutions that better everyone. People are lazy and if they can find a single way to do 80/20 of their community wants it normally produces good-actors.

Athena had two levels of code deployment:

* The core Python libraries and third-party modules, with weekly rolling releases of new/old versions for controlled deployment. These came from internal repos (the AIM system you mention) so that security scanning and licencing was checked.

hi all, the author of the article here :)

The book that is linked has been translated into 4 languages and does a good job explaining what is a sidecar. No need to buy, you can download it for free from here
https://developers.redhat.com/books/kubernetes-patterns

The article is for Kubernetes savvy readers, and the main takeaways (which I agree I failed to convey clearly) are these:

- You can consume generic capabilities from a sidecar through HTTP/gRPC, rather than include these capabilities into a microservice's runtime as a library.

- There are many sidecar examples today (some in a Pod, some shared) Envor, Cloudstate, Skupper, etc. Sidecar is an implementation detail. It can be with containers in a Pod, or it can be a shared sidecar per namespace or host machine - next to a monolith. The best example today, that provides generic developer primitives as a sidecar is Dapr.

- Kubernetes Operators encapsulate operational knowledge into executable form and shipped to software consumers as an "Ops-included" mentality.

I explained in more details the concept of consuming distributed system capabilities from sidecars in this article

> Everything goes into a plastic bag.

This needs to be expanded upon. During my recent trip to Japan (mostly Tokyo, not sure if that's representative of the rest of the country), everything was packed in a plastic bag. Pretty much each individual item (when we were e.g. shopping for ready-made food), was already packed in plastic, then was put into individual plastic bags, and then all of those were again put into a plastic bag to carry. I probably used more plastic bags in a few days than I would have in a few months in the West (UK)!

I used freebsd for my last project, I can’t deny that support for BSD is spotty on cloud providers; but as far as performance and so forth it’s not far behind if at all.

The compelling argument for FreeBSD has always been: zfs, pf and dtrace.

There’s also kqueues which are a much better interface to high throughput I/O than epoll.

The problem is that every time this kind of question is asked the ecosystem in Linux is different. Right now Linux has bpftrace, ZFS (kinda) and IO_Uring; so the gap has closed considerably.
I've been to several firework displays where the synchronisation is actually pretty good. Specifically, a few by Kimbolton Fireworks in the UK.

I'd imagine one challenge is the area over which the crowd is spread. For large displays you can have the crowd spread over quite an area with quite a variation in arrival time of the sounds. I suppose that's just the normal sound engineering problem of a large gig - lots of speakers with suitably configured delay.

Even if that’s true then it remains a failing of the Linux ecosystem that they were unable to understand how to configure it correctly or that the defaults did not work as well as the FreeBSD ones.

Often I try to help sites with more generic, borked issues. Your comment about "Oh boy, will they tell you" brought one to the fore.

I sent the following to a site. Do you think I received a response? A reply?

Either they don't actually read emails from customers, or they employ a person which became 'confused', and their eyes glazed over, once they failed to understand the message.

(Note that I sent to about 5 email addresses. The one sent after I purchased the pillow, a website info, whois email addresses, and even took 2 minutes to find the CEO email address. Yup. No response from any of them.

And more than 18 months later (I just checked), the SPF record remains unchanged.)

I wonder.

While metrics may be helpful, I wonder how many only pay attention to metrics, and then ignore emails such as mine.

Hello,

I'm terribly sorry, but unfortunately you've sold a pillow to a
SysAdmin. And now that you've done something wrong "with computers", I'm
going to prattle on whilst your eyes glaze over. :P

But in all seriousness, I recently ordered a pillow from you. Yet your
confirmation email bounced! Here's why:

May 13 07:10:54 XXX postfix/smtpd[32163]: NOQUEUE: milter-reject:
RCPT from smtp2.shopify.com[104.198.207.207]: 551 5.7.1 SPF verification
failure: sender host 'smtp2.shopify.com'[104.198.207.207] not among
explicitly allowed origin hosts for domain 'canadiandownandfeather.com',
and misses are forbidden; REJECT; from=<info@canadiandownandfeather.com>
to=<xxx> proto=ESMTP
helo=<smtp2.shopify.com>

What's happening, is your SPF record does not list Shopify email servers,
as valid for your domain name canadiandownandfeather.com...

You do have outlook.com there:

canadiandownandfeather.com. 300 IN TXT "v=spf1
include:spf.protection.outlook.com -all"

But not Shopify. If fact, the "-all" part at the end means "and nothing
else can send mail!".

So, as you are telling people that outlook is the only acceptable
place to send mail from? Until you fix this:

- some mail server servers, like mine, will completely reject your mail
from shopify's platform
- almost all remaining mail servers, will place this type of mail in SPAM
folders

I must stress, that due to your 'outlook' line, normal email should work
perfectly fine. We're only talking about email, using your domain, but
from shopify's platform.

If you go here:

https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/intro-to-shopify/initial-...

And search for "SPF record", you'll see this:

--
To verify your customer email address, you need to add Shopify's SPF
record — v=spf1 include:shops.shopify.com ~all — to the TXT record in
your custom domain settings.
--

Now.. you want to KEEP your outlook domain too.

So, just add "include:shops.shopify.com" to your TXT record, so both are
there.. something like this:

"v=spf1 include:shops.shopify.com include:spf.protection.outlook.com -all"

Do this, and your problem should be fixed.

You can go here:

And check if things are done correctly.

I think most of the comments in this thread mean "malicious" in the sense of injecting malware (say, a BTC miner) or a phishing attach or something into the signed-exchange content. However, you also have to consider that the content (text, images) itself could be "malicious", in the sense of misinformation.

If, purely as a hypothetical, Russian operatives got a credible propaganda story posted on the NYT website 24 hours before the November elections, and an AMP-hosted version of it stayed live long after the actual post got removed from nyt.com, I'd certainly call that "malicious". Of course, just like archive.org, I suspect that in a case as high-profile as that, you'd see a human from the NYT on the phone with a human at Google to get the cached copy yanked ASAP, but maybe on a slightly smaller scale the delay could be hours-to-days, which is bad enough.
