#BLR Thinking of doing monthly cubbon park founder walks + breakfasts on Saturdays @ 7:30AM. No agenda & def no 'pitching'. Just problem solving on whatever you are stuck on e.g. scaling, hiring, culture. Will keep cohorts to <10ppl; DM me w/ what ONE problem you need help with!

Such a good post from @NotionHQ on their Postgres migration. * Origin of the name "shard" * Why they chose 480 logical shards * Migration process (double write, backfill, verify, switch) * Migration and verification wrote by different people notion.so/blog/sharding-…

Why is the Apple M1 so fast? - More specialized system on a chip components - Unified memory - Fast integrated SSD - Faster out of order instruction processing with more decoders & bigger buffer, made possible by simpler fixed length RISC instructions debugger.medium.com/why-is-apples-…

✨New educational materials!✨ Today I'm announcing two new, free resources I've written: an 8-lecture course on fundamentals of distributed systems, and a 30-page tutorial on elliptic curve cryptography. martin.kleppmann.com/2020/11/18/dis…

If you've ever wondered how fibers work, you should probably watch Fabio's incredible Scala World talk. If you don't want to watch a video though, I wrote a very long-winded explanation from both practical and conceptual viewpoints: gist.github.com/djspiewak/d993…

After nearly two years of hard work, I am excited to announce "Foundations of Functional Programming in Scala" is now available in an Early Access Program! youtu.be/OdPaWmRnAc4 #Scala #functionalprogramming

I had a look today at 🍃@springboot 2.4 and the new actuator endpoint "startup" - that makes it easier to analyze which beans contribute the most to application startup time.

@alexelcu Happy birthday Alex, wish you a great year ahead.

I wrote a post about a grouping of concurrent algorithms into performance "levels". I use this mental model to more quickly map out the design space and dismiss alternatives that aren't likely to provide a performance boost. travisdowns.github.io/blog/2020/07/0… Feedback warmly welcomed.

Some of the @usenix ATC 2020 papers look amazing! Personal favorites (going by the title + researchers): - Fine-Grained Isolation for Scalable, Dynamic, Multi-tenant Edge Clouds - Peregreen — modular database for efficient storage of historical time series in cloud environments

INDIA STANDS APP If you are building an Indian version of these apps, @naval and I want to see it. We have set up an email address at india.stands.app@protonmail.com Please send us links to your working prototypes to try out (not decks!)

@murthykramya Congratulations Ramya.

Successfully defended my dissertation proposal on #platform sponsors’ scope choices and implications for #ecosystem performance. Thankful for all the support from faculty and friends. Excited to enter the next stage of the PhD journey!

This whole course is awesome. 😍 Haskell for Imperative Programmers youtube.com/watch?v=Vgu82w…
