How Microsoft does Quality Assurance (QA)
The Redmond Big Tech giant pioneered the SDET role in the 90s. It then retired it in 2014. What happened and why?

Two things can be true at the same time:
- You can achieve ~everything with enough practice
- Dan Luu is spot on when he says that "95%-ile isn't that good"

There's a list of papers on the main OCaml site going back to 1990: ocaml.org/papers. Note that some of these relate to the bytecode compiler, which differs from the native backend that is preferred today. For more background on that see: xavierleroy.org/talks/zam-ka...

In November, I spoke about DTrace and Rust at @rustlab.it. A C++ programmer in the audience found it so compelling that he resolved to learn Rust!

Published a new blog post: Building a Distributed Log Using S3 (Under 150 Lines of Go)
The log is a powerful storage abstraction. Using a log, you can build a database, message queue, or event streaming system. S3 makes it all better and easier!

avi.im/blag/2024/s3...
![Why S3?
In my previous post, I explained the benefits of Zero Disk Architecture. A log on S3 is attractive for several reasons:
No disks, so it is elastic and scalable.
We don’t have to roll our own distributed storage server. We get durability, availability, and replication for free just by using S3.
No operational overhead.
Cost. Systems like WarpStream and BufStream claim to be 10x cheaper than Kafka.
Customers and enterprises love BYOC! You make $$$
The Log Interface
type Record struct {
Offset uint64
Data []byte
}
type WAL interface {
Append(ctx context.Context, data []byte) (uint64, error)
Read(ctx context.Context, offset uint64) (Record, error)
}](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:iwpxnj7rzdynjkkr7rxaa5is/bafkreihvs274xp7k2vxdy5a4u4x6whdwrgvikgncm3ljkav4dsjqdl43ry@jpeg)
