Pangram says the text is entirely AI generated but I don't know how trustworthy Pangram is. (I would love to hear what others think about it.)

Thank you! I've made an edit crediting you. This also led me to notice the nonallocating attribute in Clang, which I've now mentioned as well.

I was also always curious about this and recently wrote a few implementations of an http file server to teach myself the key differences.

I keep thinking about doing future ones semi-public (need to sign up to be allowed to post) but I already spend more time on the book club than I particularly want to so I mostly just keep doing the same thing which works fine enough. It's also not unlikely we'd repeat a book in a few years (for example we'll read DDIAv2 probably next year). So for now, join the mailing list and new readings as they happen.

If you start one your own way and you read interesting books I will happily tell people about yours. :)

> Known as the VCV Tower, or vertical continuous vulcanization, the 660-foot tall structure allows for the assembly of miles of cable at a time, with gravity naturally helping pull the material down and make it tighter.

> LS GreenLink’s South Korean-based parent company LS Cable & System has a similar tower in Donghae. This will be first of its kind in the United States.

Hey folks! I'm sorry, I didn't expect a paywalled article to get posted here and I don't have the means at the moment to give out gift links (the site is entirely custom other than the use of Lemon Squeezy for payments) but if you check back in a week the paywall will expire.

You can also in the meantime check out Monastery, the project that automates Hermitage on GitHub: https://github.com/theconsensuslabs/monastery.

The Accord developers mostly work at Apple so it would seem Apple at least wants/needs ACID transactions for Cassandra.

When I find speakers for NYC Systems I do ask them not to speak about their experience with AI (at least that the talk should not be entirely about this) because of exactly this risk of being distracting and immediately out-of-date.

However, I think it can be a useful signal to understand if/how experienced developers in major software infrastructure projects are using AI today. So I plan to keep asking the question.

His work is very cool and I was impressed by the thoroughness and thoughtfulness of his responses.
