Links of the day 29 - 04 - 2015

Today's links 29/04/2015 : Concurrency vs parallelism, Reenix #Rust OS, Pulsar Real Time Analytics, Business Town
  • Concurrency is not parallelism : very good talk by Rob Pike on the misconception that often occur when people hear the word concurrency they often think of parallelism, a related but quite distinct concept. In programming, concurrency is the composition of independently executing processes, while parallelism is the simultaneous execution of (possibly related) computations. Concurrency is about dealing with lots of things at once. Parallelism is about doing lots of things at once.
  • Reenix : unix-like operating system kernel in rust.  I like seeing this type of Rust project, it show the vitality of the language and its versatility. [github]
  • Pulsar : Ebay Open-source real-time analytics platform and stream processing framework. Some nice characteristic for real time large scale CEP solution [github]
  • Business Town : when real life cliche meets cartoonist .. long live captain moonshot !
