Advanced #Programming in the #UNIX Environment

Week 8, System V Interprocess Communication

In this video lecture, we cover traditional #SystemV #IPC: semaphores, shared memory, and message queues. We also look at the POSIX message queues implementation and how this model forms the basis of many popular "pub sub" services like e.g., Amazon Simple Queue Service, Apache Kafka, or RabbitMQ.

Advanced #Programming in the #UNIX Environment

Week 8, Interprocess Communications Intro

We begin our discussion of Interprocess Communication by providing a quick overview of the different properties of #IPC mechanisms as well as which mechanisms we will cover:

- Signals (see previous week)
- System V IPC (Semaphores, Shared Memory, Message Queues)
- Pipes and FIFOs

#WHO / Famine in Gaza is imminent, with immediate and long-term health consequences

The World Health Organization, along with numerous other humanitarian organizations, are depending on an #IPC report to raise awareness about the pressing issue of an impending famine in Gaza. There are claims by some that the famine is architected by Israel.

The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) is a multi-partner initiative that uses a classification and analytical approach to determine the severity and magnitude of acute and chronic food insecurity and malnutrition situations in a country. The goal is to provide decision-makers with evidence-based analysis to inform emergency responses and long-term policies. The IPC was developed in 2004 by FAO's Food Security and Nutrition Analysis Unit (FSNAU) and has since been implemented globally in over 30 countries. It is considered a best practice in the food security field and a model of collaboration.

I kinda have a hard time taking projects referencing #Unix #philosophy seriously.

"Do one job and do it well" is so ill-defined as to be useless. So the typical result is to simplify the program into uselessness by externalizing the complexity onto the user and their environment instead of handling it properly within the program itself because that's "bloat".

And don't get me started on the #serialization hell of unstructured text pipes as your primary #IPC.

Everyone at home is sick with fevers & coughs except me today. It would be completely irresponsible & a dereliction of duty for me as a close contact for whatever it is my family are carrying to not reduce the potential exposure to my patients by 100 fold by wearing a fit-tested particular filtering respirator whilst at work.
This is a permanent change to my practice & should be for all healthcare workers going forward.
