It only took 20 years: Browsers have long exposed visited link history to malicious websites, enabling attackers to profile users or run phishing campaigns. By isolating link history with a new partitioning model, Chrome could close off an entire class of privacy attacks – potentially setting a new standard for safer web browsing. Browsers have mishandled visited site tracking since the early days of the internet. Google is now working to fix the issue with Chrome. The browser's next update wil

We dive into the architecture details of Restate, a Durable Execution engine we built from the ground up. Restate requires no database/log or other system, but implements a full stack that competes with the best logs in terms of durability and operations. This is the second article in our series on building a durable execution system from first principles. The first blog post in this series, Every System is a Log, looks at this from the application side, and shows how a unified log architecture

Long ago, during the time of creation, I confidently waved my hand and allocated a 1GB ESP partition and a 1GB boot partition, thinking to myself with a confident smile that this would surely be more than enough for the foreseeable future. However, this foreseeable future quickly vanished along with my smile. What was bound to happen eventually came, but I didn’t expect it to arrive so soon. What could possibly require such a large boot partition? And how should we resolve this? Here, I would li

In my last post about hard drives that go bad over time, I hinted at having rescued a lost piece of obscure Apple software history from an old 160 MB Conner hard drive that had its head stuck in the parked position. This post is going to be all about it. It’s the tale of a tad bit of an obsession, what felt like a hopeless search, and how persistence eventually paid off. There’s still an unsolved mystery too, so I’m hoping others will see this and help to fill in the blanks! This whole saga sta
