The only reason I ended up down that particular code hole is because I would very much like to see something software become available for Distributed RAID.

Every once in a while I will catch myself reading code as if it's prose (this seems to especially happen with C).

For example, for a bit of dry (interesting to me) reading, a patch to btrfs trying to correct for the "write hole" problem in implementing raid5/6 pools:

https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org/msg66473.html

Specifically "btrfs_r5l_recover_verify_checksum"

Sometimes code reads like prose to me, and when I catch myself doing that, I get weirded out. Should I?

Going to try to be a little better about logging in here to check and post things as well!

It's Independence Day, and I really wish I could be prouder of my country.

But the unrecognized legacy of white supremacy has shown us our worst selves and we're still not doing enough to deal with that.

This year we emancipate ourselves from the lie of America.

Yeah, I went there.

First two and last messages were from the same person.

Third message was from someone else.

Reply was mine. I've clearly been influenced by a certain renard bleu.

Mankind's first mission to Mars is a high risk venture. Mission planners secretly include a skilled magic user on the crew roster with orders not to reveal themselves unless things go seriously wrong.

In other news, I'm finally home again! Nice to be home. Thinking about playing with Rust some more tomorrow.
Finding a Mastodon client for Windows I don't have to compile in Visual Studio is challenging. If I'm going to do that, I might as well just try to roll my own client for my own edification.

Once again, still alive. Just been busy. Sparing a moment to update here while I wait for a flight.

Lots of story thought in the works, mostly for #ChosenStory #SundaysChildStory and #RunningMateStory. Horizons will be impacted depending on what I do with Running Mate, or I could scrap Horizons and just let Running Mate stand on its own.

Some structural problems with #SundaysChildStory need to be worked out.
