Listen "Read/Write/Nil with Michael Knyszek and Michael Pratt"
Episode Synopsis
Please read important erratum at end of these notes!Astute listeners will notice that this is the first episode in over a year. I recorded not one but two awesome interviews...and then failed to edit and publish them. Guilt over this haunted me. I have finally accepted I must declare moral bankruptcy on this front to be able to continue the podcast; I apologize. (I may yet bring those episodes back to life, but I will no longer block on them.)In this episode, Michael, Michael, and I discuss an awesome debugging adventure deep in the Go runtime and linux kernel.Links:* Go issue: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/73581* Metastable Failures in Distributed Systems: https://sigops.org/s/conferences/hotos/2021/papers/hotos21-s11-bronson.pdf* Sponsor: https://sketch.dev/Erratum:I described elided nil checks as working by mapping the page at 0x0 as read only. In fact, it is unmapped, so that reads will also fault. Silly me.
