Lessons from a century of communism

 https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2017/11/07/lessons-from-a-century-of-communism/   Today is the 100th anniversary of the Bolshevik seizure of power, which led to the establishment of a communist regime in Russia and eventually in many other nations around the world. It is an appropriate time to remember the vast tide of oppression, tyranny, and mass murder that communist regimes unleashed upon the world. While historians and others have documented numerous communist atrocities, much of the public remains unaware of their enormous scale. It is also a good time to consider what lessons we can learn from this horrendous history. I. A Record of Mass Murder and Oppression. Collectively, communist states killed as many as 100 million people , more than all other repressive regimes combined during the same time period. By far the biggest toll arose from communist efforts to collectivize agriculture and eliminate independent property-owning peasant...

Open-sourcing a more precise time appliance

  https://engineering.fb.com/2021/08/11/open-source/time-appliance/ Open-sourcing a more precise time appliance By Ahmad Byagowi , Oleg Obleukhov Facebook engineers have built and open-sourced an Open Compute Time Appliance, an important component of the modern timing infrastructure. To make this possible, we came up with the Time Card — a PCI Express (PCIe) card that can turn almost any commodity server into a time appliance. With the help of the OCP community, we established the Open Compute Time Appliance Project and open-sourced every aspect of the Open Time Server . In March 2020, we announced that we were in the process of switching over the servers in our data centers (together with our consumer products) to a new timekeeping service based on the Network Time Protocol (NTP) . The new service, built in-house and later open-sourced, was more scalable and improved the accuracy of timekeepin...

Anatomy of a Program in Memory

 https://manybutfinite.com/post/anatomy-of-a-program-in-memory/   Anatomy of a Program in Memory Jan 27th, 2009 Memory management is the heart of operating systems; it is crucial for both programming and system administration. In the next few posts I'll cover memory with an eye towards practical aspects, but without shying away from internals. While the concepts are generic, examples are mostly from Linux and Windows on 32-bit x86. This first post describes how programs are laid out in memory. Each process in a multi-tasking OS runs in its own memory sandbox. This sandbox is the virtual address space , which in 32-bit mode is always a 4GB block of memory addresses . These virtual addresses are mapped to physical memory by page tables , which are maintained by the operating system kernel and consulted by the processor. Each process has its own set of page tables, but there is a catch. Once...
