13:08 * pdurbin looks at http://aphyr.com/media/talk.pdf
13:09 * pdurbin looks at http://github.com/aphyr/jepsen
13:10 pdurbin "Breaking distributed systems so you don't have to."
13:10 pdurbin aditsu: good talk?
13:10 aditsu pretty good, although he's quite nervous :p
13:11 pdurbin :)
13:11 pdurbin I was a bit nervous giving my first talk the other week.
13:11 pdurbin aditsu: what was your main takeaway from the talk?
13:13 aditsu replication is hard, it fails in different ways depending on settings, and especially in ways you don't expect
13:13 aditsu replication and failover in case of network partitions (or netsplits :p )
13:14 pdurbin I noticed Riak in the slides. I thought Riak was good at replication.
13:18 aditsu he talks about postgres, redis, mongo and riak
13:18 aditsu strangely, in the case of postgres he focused mainly on the client-server communication
13:19 aditsu but for the other ones he talked about replication
13:20 aditsu well, maybe he covered it under "the system behaves as one node"
13:36 aditsu also see http://aphyr.com/tags/jepsen for more..
13:46 pdurbin seems like this is the first post: http://aphyr.com/posts/281-call-me-maybe-carly-rae-jepsen-and-the-perils-of-network-partitions
14:01 pdurbin interesting. Facebook is/was using distcc - Distributed compilation for faster C/C++ builds - Google Project Hosting - https://code.google.com/p/distcc/
14:02 pdurbin compilation time of 20 minutes instead of maybe a day: #129: Facebook's Sara Golemon and the PHP Language Specification - The Changelog - http://thechangelog.com/129/
