"Avoiding fallback in distributed systems" by @jacobgabrielson https://t.co/BqHijVvoMY makes a really great case for why fallback probably isn't something you want to build into your architecture. /1

It looks like I came up with new leaderless consensus protocol like EPaxos, a post about it: "Pacified consensus: how to retrofit leaderlessness into a Paxos or Raft based protocol" - https://t.co/gSMXeznkhc

Kernel Data Protection (KDP) is a set of APIs that provide the ability to mark some kernel memory as read-only, preventing attackers from ever modifying protected memory.

I came across defects caused by race conditions that might occur when we work with databases, while reading Designing Data-Intensive Applications (DDIA), by Martin Kleppmann. It turns out that if we aren’t careful, concurrent transactions can cause a lot…

The one who codes

TransCoder is the first self-supervised neural transcompiler system for migrating code between programming languages. It can translate code from Python to C++, for example, and it outperforms rule-based translation programs.

Saw a conference deck mentioning Spanner doesn't have SQL support and wrote some notes on how Spanner's SQL support evolved and what's happening to improve the dialect and the features. https://t.co/flMamXRUEj

Video from last week's @RocksetCloud Quarantine DB talk by @dhruba_rocks is now available on Youtube. This provides a good overview of how Rockset uses @RocksDB to support distributed storage and row+columnar+inverted indexes. https://t.co/rwxe3RMIV0
