I’ve been meaning to write a post about my perspective on Open Source and corporate entities. I already got the rough outline of it; however, I’m suffering from writer’s block, but more importantly, the whole post is a praise of how Shopify engages with Open Source communities. Hence, given the current climate, I don’t think I could publish it without addressing the elephant in the room first anyw

A Git story: Not so fun this time | Brachiosoft Blog
Linus Torvalds once wrote in a book that he created Linux just for fun, but it ended up sparking a revolution. Git, his second major creation, was also an accidental revolution. It’s now a standard tool for software engineers, but its origin story wasn’t so much fun this time, at least for Linus. Linus doesn’t scale 1998 was a big year for Linux. Major companies like Sun, IBM, and Oracle started g
The Rust programming language differs from C in many ways; those differences tend to be what users admire in the language. But those differences can also lead to an impedance mismatch when Rust code is integrated into a C-dominated system, and it can be even worse in the kernel, which is not a typical C program. Memory models are a case in point. A programming language's view of memory is sufficie
Around the turn of the century we started to get a bigger need for high capacity web servers. For example there was the C10k problem paper. At the time, the kinds of things done to reduce work done per request was pre-forking the web server. This means a request could be handled without an expensive process creation. Because yes, creating a new process for every request used to be something perfec
How to modernize C arrays for greater memory safety: a case-study in refactoring the Linux kernel and a look to the future Kees Cook C is not just a fancy assembler any more Large projects written in C, especially those written close to the hardware layer like Linux, have long treated the language as a high-level assembler. Using C allowed for abstracting away much of the difficulty of writing dir
Database Fundamentals
About a year ago, I tried thinking which database I should choose for my next project, and came to the realization that I don't really know the differences of databases enough. I went to different database websites and saw mostly marketing and words I don't understand. This is when I decided to read the excellent books Database Internals by Alex Petrov and Designing Data-Intensive Applications by
Linux Kernel Rust Code Sees Its First CVE Vulnerability - Phoronix
Linux Kernel Rust Code Sees Its First CVE Vulnerability Written by Michael Larabel in Linux Kernel on 17 December 2025 at 07:44 AM EST. 107 Comments The first CVE vulnerability has been assigned to a piece of the Linux kernel's Rust code. Greg Kroah-Hartman announced that the first CVE has been assigned to a piece of Rust code within the mainline Linux kernel. This first CVE for Rust code in the L
Rust has been a prominent topic at the Kernel Maintainers Summit for the last couple of years, and the 2023 meeting continued that tradition. As Rust-for-Linux developer Miguel Ojeda noted at the beginning of the session dedicated to the topic, the level of interest in using Rust for kernel development has increased significantly over the last year. But Rust was explicitly added to Linux as an exp
[Simon Tatham, initial version 2023-09-01, last updated 2025-03-25] [Coroutines trilogy: C preprocessor | C++20 native | general philosophy ] Introduction Why I’m so enthusiastic about coroutines The objective view: what makes them useful? Versus explicit state machines Versus conventional threads The subjective view: why do I like them so much? “Teach the student when the student is ready” They s
