Building things, learning, and writing about it
For developers proficient in Go, learning Rust provides an opportunity to engage with system programming through a different lens. Both Rust and Go are modern programming languages designed to handle tasks like concurrency and system-level operations efficiently, but they approach these tasks with distinct methodologies and philosophies.
In today's digital landscape, the ability to collaborate in real-time on applications like Google Docs, collaborative coding platforms, and online gaming environments is not just a convenience but a necessity. One of the fundamental technologies enabling this seamless, concurrent user interaction without the typical latency or conflict issues is the Conflict-Free Replicated Data Type (CRDT).
The Shannon-Hartley theorem is a fundamental concept in information theory that describes the maximum rate at which information can be transmitted over a communication channel with a given bandwidth and signal-to-noise ratio. It provides a theoretical limit on the capacity of a communication channel, which is the maximum rate at which information can be transmitted without error.
