Bluesky experienced an 8-hour outage on Monday due to a memcached port exhaustion issue caused by a new internal service that sent large batches of requests without proper concurrency limits. The team eventually fixed the issue by expanding the client IP+port space, but not before experiencing a death spiral of port exhaustion and OOMs due to excessive logging and aggressive tuning of GOGC ...
The user created a library called fennel-cljlib that brought Clojure features to the Lua runtime, but it had performance issues due to its copy-on-write approach. They then created a new library called immutable.fnl with a Persistent HAMT implementation, which improved performance and allowed for the development of a Clojure-to-Fennel compiler called ClojureFnl.
The user demonstrates how an app can gain access to a protected folder on macOS despite being listed as restricted in Privacy & Security settings. This is achieved by using the app to access the folder through an Open and Save Panel, which bypasses the need for user consent and allows the app to retain permanent access to the folder.
