Breaking the WAL | Antithesis

💥 Discover this trending post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: ✅ **What You’ll Learn**: Hi, it’s Carl again. You may remember me as the guy who taught Claude to use Antithesis. Earlier this year, SQLite released (3.51.3), which fixed a longstanding bug in their Write-Ahead Logging (WAL) subsystem called the WAL-Reset bug. The bug had been hanging around since 2010, but the SQLite team had apparently been unaware of its existence until earlier this year (more on this below). As they wrote at the time: “The bug is a data race with tight timing constraints. It is unlikely to…

I have found Principia quite engaging and hard to put away. Principia discusses, with great insight, such modern topics as extensionality/intensionality, referential transparency, type. It contains perhaps the first mentioning of `domain', `alpha renaming' and `type' in the modern sense. Its `incomplete symbols' -- the ones that only make sense in a context -- anticipate continuations and control…

Build Wide, Ship Narrow | Blog

🚀 Discover this awesome post from Hacker News 📖 📂 **Category**: ✅ **What You’ll Learn**: Good engineers plan before they build. The workflow I grew up seeing: write an RFC describing the feature, split it into smaller issues, then build them, each issue often blocking the next. The structure of the work was locked in before a single line of code existed. This is reasonable. It keeps code reviews manageable and avoids big-bang merges. It also asks you to make your most critical structural decisions at the moment you know the least about the problem. Before you've built anything, you're…
