I understand that this is a weird question, I've never coded in C, are there any online resources that help me grok OS concepts without a lot of emphasis on hands-on coding assignments.

Is containerd CRI compliant? Kubelet still interacts with cri-containerd which inturn calls containerd. Isn't cri-containerd the dockershim of containerd?

Maybe I'm mixing up things, pls correct me wherever needed.

Noob question:

As I understand, dockershim makes docker daemon cri compliant. But dockerd already uses containerd which is cri compliant. So, why can't kubelet directly interact with containerd APIs without dockershim?

Apart from Coursera's course "programming languages", are there any other courses which teach interesting concepts from different programming languages instead of zeroing on 1 language.

Intuitively how does any Java program compile into an executable?

Hey Ron, firstly awesome write-up.

Can you force yourself to list a few disadvantages of virtual threads over native threads?

Are there any online resources that provide an overview of various advanced concurrency patterns in various programming languages.

I would like to understand various trade-offs between multiple approaches.

Hey, I am really intrigued about the idea. Do you follow any specific learning path? Any resources would also help a lot.

Can you share the respiratory

Thanks, but where are zones used in practice?

Assume that example.com and foo.example.com have different zone files which in-turn have different ns entries day ns1 and ns2. So if I query for the A record of foo.example.com will it be answered by ns2? If so can I assume that the .com tld server has entries for both example.com and foo.example.com?

So, what are the practical application of zones? I can think of load balancing DNS queries as one.

> Since binary data can be a pain to transmit, it’s often further encoded into PEM. PEM is essentially just Base64-encoded DER.

Why's binary data a pain to transmit and how does base64 encoding help with that?

Agree, according to Oracle's new release cadence every major version is "production ready", just that every sixth release is considered for LTS.

I don't qualify to answer this... But most enterprises want someone to hold accountable in case of any catastrophic failures.

Thanks for the share.. I was just reading about asynchronous io this weekend.

Any similar online resources describing low level operations in such detail?

Are there any advantages of using binary protocols if most of my in-transit data is text?

Really enjoyed it... Any recommendations for Web architecture 102 ?

Completely agree... Going beyond the basics is really hard. But as I understand it's because of inadequate knowledge of advanced network/storage virtualization concepts. Any help on how to get started in those? As a side note I have decent knowledge of basic networking/storage.

Hey nice resource but this is more of a tutorial on how to optimize font loading etc... >The browser performs layout and paints content to the screen. This is the step I want to understand more thoroughly..

Off topic, but are there any accessible resources to learn: 1. How fonts get rendered? What happens when I present browser with a font file and some utf-8 bytes, how does it convert this into viewable text.

2. Once browser creates DOM and CSSOM how does it use this information to create the view that I see?

I think wildfly also uses serialization to store session state when scaling horizontally.

No I read it, but I want to understand the technical details like how is this different from using Facebook in incognito window.

What's a Firefox container and why should I use one ?

What are the prerequisites for this tutorial?

Slightly off topic... If processor can only understand assembly grammar, what's the difference between an interpreter and a compiler?

I understand that interpreter can directly execute the intermediate byte code (giving us portability benefits), but at some point it must convert the byte code into platform independent machine code. Right?

What exactly differentiates an interpreter and a compiler?

Don't you think OP would have tried that.

To be fair I think Oracle allows for 3-4 month overlapping period between versions.

Enjoyed reading the article, thanks for sharing.

Great article for a noob like me. Any similar article suggestions, which gives a good high level overview on kernel internals, specifically on IO topics like what happens when an application requests for a file - right from issuing a system call to disk Interactions.

I was always confused - still I am - with regards to different caching layers that involve in an IO operation.
