Here's a neat analysis of a subtle OpenZFS bug by @robn.
despairlabs.com/blog/posts/202…
I love reading thoughtful analyses of bugs and the factors that produced them. Nowadays I usually arrive somewhat resigned, and expecting a "zeroth order" C bug -- something like bad pointering or failure to initialize a variable.
This is more of a "second order" C bug, and the author goes through the potential tradeoffs and rightfully points out that the answer is not "git gud." I'll put my thoughts on the bug in a reply so as not to spoil it for you.
Anyway, it's a good short read.
An (almost) catastrophic OpenZFS bug and the humans that made it (and Rust is here too)
A couple of weeks ago I fixed a nasty bug in this function in OpenZFS:despair labs

The text overlay at the bottom of the image reads, "IT BELONGED TO YOUR MOTHER."

The image depicts two characters from a science fiction film, standing in a dimly lit room with stone walls. The character on the left, with blonde hair, is wearing a white robe with a black belt. The character on the right, with a beard and white hair, is holding a white object with a blue stripe, resembling a lightsaber hilt, and is speaking to the other character. The text at the bottom of the image reads, "IT BELONGED TO YOUR MOTHER." The scene is reminiscent of a moment from the Star Wars franchise, where a mentor character is explaining the significance of a lightsaber to a younger character.

WeatherStar 4000+
[Shared]Relive the Weather Channel’s Local Weather Display from days past. Retro Gold.
This project aims to bring back the feel of the 90s with a weather forecast that has the look and feel of The Weather Channel at that time but available in a modern way. This is by no means intended to be a perfect emulation of the WeatherStar 4000, the hardware that produced those wonderful blue and orange graphics you saw during the local forecast on The Weather Channel. If you would like a much more accurate project please see the WS4000 Simulator. Instead, this project intends to create a simple to use interface with minimal configuration fuss. Some changes have been made to the screens available because either more or less forecast information is available today than was in the 90s. Most of these changes are captured in sections below.

After several days of training, our new crew is ready to go.
The Mediterranean is one of the most dangerous migration routes in the world, one which people are forced to take to seek safety.
As long as people are fleeing and there are no safe ways for them to reach safety, we stand ready to support them on their way.

The image is a two-panel meme featuring two characters in red and black uniforms, reminiscent of those worn by crew members in the Star Trek franchise. In the top panel, the character on the left is looking at the character on the right, who is responding to a question. The text on the podium in front of the character on the right reads, "What does the yellow light on a traffic signal mean?" The character on the right responds with "Slow down." In the bottom panel, the character on the left looks at the character on the right, who is now covering his face with his hand. The text on the podium in front of the character on the right reads, "What...does....the....yellow....light....on....a....traffic...." The background is a simple, muted color, and the characters are seated at a table.

in reply to AaronDavid • • •The image is a meme featuring two side-by-side photographs with a caption at the top. The left photograph shows a character resembling Hoggle from the movie "Labyrinth," with a wrinkled, greenish face, large nose, and pointed ears. He has white hair and is wearing a brown vest over a white shirt. The background is dark, suggesting an outdoor setting.
The right photograph shows an older man with a blue headband, white hair, and a serious expression. He is wearing a patterned shirt and has visible ear piercings. The background is light, possibly indicating an indoor setting.
The caption at the top reads, "After Hoggle left the Labyrinth he joined the Rolling Stones," humorously suggesting that the character Hoggle has aged and transformed into a member of the famous rock band.
