I thought I've read that #hashtags can't be found via "follow hashtag" of posts that did not have the hashtag in its initial version. Therefore, editing a post for adding hashtags doesn't work.
This does seem to confirm:

I migrated the two Ubuntu LTS builder instances over to it, and added a third one so now we can run the regular Ubuntu CI, the asan/ubsan build, and the static analysis pass concurrently.
This box has a Xeon 5320 which is a bit slower than the 8362 on the main VM server, and has only 128GB of RAM rather than 512. But the compute-to-memory ratio is actually higher so after a bit of iteration I settled on 16 vCPUs a…

In theory, the #Fediverse is federated.

So you'd expect a huge colorful graph with many cliques.
Reality differs: It's a loose collection of nodes, with partially disjoint subgraphs, some connections unidirectional.
For a multitude of reasons, some instances choose to defederate others. Some deliberately block a l…

Characterizing Metastable Faults and Failures

arxiv.org/abs/2606.00942 arxiv.org/pdf/2606.00942 arxiv.org/html/2606.00942
arXiv:2606.00942v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Metastable failures are hard to detect, prevent, and mitigate. During a metastable failure, a system exhibits self-sustaining bad behavior even in the absence of adversarial conditions. Prior work focuses on symptoms and has portrayed metastable failures as instances of self-sustaining overload. This characterization leaves the underlying failure causes and dynamics unknown, and does not account for metastable failures that do not manifest as overload. We present the first causal characterization of metastable failures by identifying their origin in metastable faults, i.e., structural destabilizing cycles of interaction among systems components that, in isolation, are stabilizing. Metastable failures arise when scheduling decisions let these destabilizing interactions gain the upper hand over the individual components' stabilizing tendencies. We then derive a methodology to predict metastable failures, and to build metastable-fault-tolerant (MFT) systems. We apply our methodology to three case studies, showcasing the generality of our results.
