In past few days, there are many tech news which are related to open source. For example, Microsoft enables Linux on its Windows Azure cloud, Facebook open sourced its C++ library Folly and Samsung joined Linux foundation.

  bash network interface

Some of us may have seen /dev/tcp/<host>/<port> before, is this a special file system implemented in some BSD kernel? Because there is no /dev/tcp in Linux. Actually, this one is implemented in bash. We no need to rely on wget,nc to do network connection. It's very easy to use this interface: bash-4.2$ cat </dev/tcp/time.nist.gov/13 56188 12-09-18 15:34:26 50 0 0 733.5 UTC(NIST) * bash-4.2$ exec 3<>/dev/tcp/www.w3.org/80 bash-4.2$ echo -e "GET / HTTP/1.0\n\n" >&3 b...

  /dev/null and /dev/tty in Linux

In Linux, there are two special files /dev/null and /dev/tty. /dev/null will drop all the data written to it, i.e, when program writes data to this file, it means the program has completed the data write operation. But in  fact it does nothing, if you just want the status of a command but not the output of a command, this feature will be very useful. See below shell codes:     /> vi test_dev_null.sh        #!/bin/bash    if grep...

  Linux的早期岁月

我的名字是 Lars Wirzenius，我曾经见证了Linux的起点。Linux现在是一个全球成功的操作系统，但它的开始却非常谦逊。这些是我对Linux最早的日子、它的创造以及它走向今天的记忆。 我于1988年秋季开始在赫尔辛基大学攻读计算机科学，并认识了 Linus Torvalds，他也是当年计算机科学专业的新生之一，而且和我一样说瑞典语。在那个学年的末尾，我们得到了一台Unix服务器的访问权限...

  Chrome is dominating the browser world

Microsoft has announced recently that their Edge browser will abandon its own kernel and switch to use Google Chromium. This by no means indicates that Microsoft admitted it lost the war against Google on browser. For Microsoft, making such a decision is certainly not easy, but it is absolutely a wise decision. After all, the market share of both parties are not at the same competing level anymore. According to NetMarketShare's statistics, Chrome's market share in desktop world has reached 67.29...

  Breakdown Kubernetes Container Runtime

Keeping on learning Kubernetes piece by piece and having a deeper understanding of its advantages, I am no longer shocked at its rapid development and popularity. Though backed by big companies like Google is undoubtedly the push, its design, features, and convenience are the biggest attraction. Most of all, it disintegrates the monolithic Internet system governance and lifecycle and offers a new management method. Kubernetes is a set of concepts, including various resource types like Pod, Deplo...

  C++ for the Real-Time Web

C++? Why on Earth? C++ seems like one of the least likely languages to write a web application in. C++ is associated with complexity, both with language design and the need to manually manage memory. Programming in C++ unleashes a whole class of bugs associated with memory corruption and memory allocation. This is a trade off for giving more power to the developer along generally being much faster than equivalent programs in languages such as Python or Ruby. Real-time Web as a Use Case Making...
