Actors are inherently a concurrent programming model, however, actors are not inherently a distributed programming model

What is the difference between Failure Agnostic and Failure Tolerant?!

In the presence of partial failure, even the most basic rules for reasoning about computations do not hold
－An Equational Theory for Transactions
The very essence of distributed systems

Monday Morning Musings ☀️
Distributed systems and consensus enthusiasts know the rule: we need 2f+1 processes to tolerate up to f failures.
Can you explain why in a way that makes anybody say 'Of course, now I get it'

The true Irony of building Event Driven Systems
Events are the wrong abstraction for building event driven systems

Exploring the effects of concurrency and distribution in Python with a custom scheduler that simulates partial order and partial failure with retries
#ThinkingInDistributedSystems
Distributed systems are concurrent systems. So why do we use sequential, blocking remote procedure calls?!
#ThinkingInDistributedSystems
Formal Methods and a Formal Methods-inspired way of Thinking are the Raptor 3 of software engineering: crystal-clear and razor-sharp
#ThinkingInDistributedSystems
Do you think idempotence can ensure correctness in the face of retries?!

The first day of NDC { Oslo } has kicked off. If you're attending the conference, don't miss my talk on Distributed Async Await
#ThinkingInDistributedSystems
New issue of The Weekend Read just dropped, we are building a minimal Distributed Async Await framework in 60 lines of js code

Discussing Deterministic Simulation Testing inevitably leads to the topic of determinism
Question: When is a software system deterministic, and is determinism an absolute property

Using Alloy Analyzer to explore the traditional async await programming model
In order to model Distributed Async Await, we need to add the notion of a process to reason about local and remote steps
