I have thought about this moment for a long time. I would not be here without my wife, God, and you all.

Thanks for giving me this opportunity. I hope I made software proud. Moreover, I hope you feel encouraged to pursue excellence, goodness, and hopefully a love worth living.

I gave up hope once and tried the commit suicide, but since Jesus saved my life I have not faltered in that. Don't get lost in the sauce, there is hope.

this is also a reason to use .bind instead of arrow functions in 2024

to avoid memory leaks from keeping a parent scope alive

Zero-copy writes make Kafka fast, but how exactly? ⚡

Kafka is a message broker, and it accepts messages from the network and writes to the disk, and vice versa. The traditional way of moving data from network to disk involves `read` and `write` system calls, which require data to be moved to and from user space to kernel space.

Kafka leverages `sendfile` system call which copies data from one file descriptor to another within the kernel. Kafka uses this to directly transfer data from the network socket to the file on disk, bypassing unnecessary copies.

If you are interested, just read the man page of `sendfile` system call. In most cases, whenever you see something extracting extreme performance a major chunk of it comes from leveraging the right system call.

ps: I used this zero copy while building Remote Shuffle Service for Apache Spark. It proved pivotal in getting a great performance while moving multi-tb data across machines.

There's something _addictive_ about coding... Even when you're tired or lack sleep, you still wanna jump back and write 5 more lines to test an idea you've had in your head!

[Nithin K Joy @nithinkjoy_tech]

@moshhamedani What did it cost you to test your idea?
