- Dec 29, 2025 Fault Injection as a Continuous Regression Test How an experiment becomes a repeatable test case with a pass predicate, why resilience tests fail for environmental reasons far more often than for real regressions, and what a green suite does not prove. devops
- Dec 5, 2025 Bounding Blast Radius: How a Fault Injection Chooses Its Targets The three axes that bound an injected fault, how deterministic partitioning selects a stable subset of targets, and why aggregates that span treated and untreated hosts hide the result. devops
- Sep 29, 2025 Birth-Death Processes and the Queue Length Equilibrium The transition diagram of a single-server queue is a birth-death chain whose stationary probabilities satisfy a flow-balance equation that yields the M/M/1 geometric distribution. scientific computing
- Feb 22, 2025 Warmup Transients and Detecting Steady State in Timed Loops Why the first iterations of a timed loop measure a different program, which subsystems are still converging, and how to locate the transition into steady state rather than assuming it. performance engineering
- Mar 1, 2024 Steady-State Hypotheses and the Abort Condition in Fault Injection How a fault-injection exercise defines normal behaviour as a falsifiable claim about metrics, how tolerance windows set its resolution, and why the abort condition is a separate signal. devops
