cees

Bu-cees is a Texas phenomenon - gas stations the size of a Costco, reasonable prices inside and out.

Try this book: Intelligence and the War in Bosnia: 1992-1995 (Perspectives on Intelligence History) by Cees Wiebes.

Can we make it more practical so we can reduce or eliminate the chasm Cees writes about?

Even though his usual working language is Smalltalk, I'm sure Cees de Groot would appreciate.

Which makes me wonder why the employee in question, Cees de Groot, was so adamantly refusing to answer the question in any sort of detail.

Previously we had known about fail-silent storage and network errors due to bit flips, but the CEEs are new because they are computation errors.

While it is easy to detect data corruption due to bit flips, it is hard to detect CEEs because they are rare and require expensive methods to detect/correct in real-time.

A couple decades back we didn't have the experience at scale we do now, and CEEs and other causes of SDC were less on anyone's radar.

:-) But seriously, though, > I think fail-silent CEEs is weaker than the adversary Byzantine failure model.

Over the next year and a half, intelligence expert Cees Wiebes and I managed to reconstruct the previously unknown role the Dutch played in the Cold War.

In soft-error based fault injection studies by chip producers, CPU CEEs are evaluated to be a one in a million occurrence, not 1 in 1000 observed at deployment at Facebook and Google...

> So Google found fail-silent Corruption Execution Errors (CEEs) at CPU/cores.

Lots of old hams say "kay cees" and almost get offended when a newcomer says kilohertz.

I cannot comment in any way on financial matters, but like Cees, I am a principal engineer at PagerDuty, and I can tell you that in terms of total LOC, our Elixir use may seem modest because we have a lot of code that was written X number of years ago in Ruby or Scala.
