Retry и timeout кажутся базовыми механизмами отказоустойчивости. Не прошел запрос — повторим. Ответ не пришел за 500 мс — оборвем. Кажется, что этого достаточно, чтобы система стала надежнее.На практике в распределенных системах retry и timeout могут работать наоборот.

Windows давно превратилась в большой слоеный пирог из кода, где рядом с современными технологиями спокойно живут решения, придуманные еще в 80-е и 90-е. Многие из них продолжают работать без видимых проблем, поэтому их годами никто не трогает. Иногда компания вдруг вспоминает о таком куске старого кода и вносит правку. Именно это произошло с поддержкой больших разделов FAT32 в Windows 11. Форматирование через командную строку наконец перестало упираться в потолок в... Read more ›

Longtime Slashdot reader AmiMoJo writes: Windows has limited FAT32 partitions to a maximum of 32GB for decades now. When memory cards and USB drives exceeded 32GB in size, the only options were exFAT or NTFS. Neither option was well supported on other platforms at first, although exFAT support is fairly widespread now.
