A Git story: Not so fun this time
https://blog.brachiosoft.com/en/posts/git
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, 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.

A write-ahead log is not a universal part of durability
https://notes.eatonphil.com/2024-07-01-a-write-ahead-log-is-not-a-universal-part-of-durability.html
A database does not need a write-ahead log (WAL) to achieve durability. A database can write its long-term data structure durably to disk before returning to a client. Granted, this is a bad idea! And granted, a WAL is critical for durability by design in most databases. But I think it's helpful to understand WALs by understanding what you could do without them.

Argo Events — Event Bus and Webhook
https://medium.chuklee.com/argo-events-event-bus-and-webhook-ac34e5714209
Argo Event is a Kubernetes based event automation engine. It is part of the Argo project. Argo Events can be used with or independent of other projects in Argo.
I will be writing a series of articles on Argo Events; in these articles I will be looking at how we can use Argo Event to automate process within and without a Kubernetes cluster.
For this first article in this series, we will examine Argo Events core concepts, installation and provisioning different event buses which Argo Event uses to forward events to their sink. Finally we will look at setting up a webhook event flow to verify our setup.
