Consistent Hashing Explained for System Design Interviews
When you shard a cache or database with hash(key) mod N, adding or removing one server remaps almost every key. Consistent hashing limits the damage to roughly 1/N of the keys.
How it works
- Map servers and keys onto the same ring of hash values (for example 0 to 2^32 - 1).
- A key belongs to the first server clockwise from its position.
- When a server joins, it takes keys only from its clockwise neighbour; when one leaves, its keys move to the next server.

Lip-sync quality checklist — a practical guide
The goal here is a short clip that looks natural, finished in minutes rather than an afternoon.
A one-page check I run before I share a talking video from Fameo.

Small repairs, honestly logged.
The fence post leans after every storm, and every storm gets the same answer: dig the hole wider, set the post deeper, tamp the earth in layers. The neighbour says replace it. The notebook says the post outlasts three of his replacements already.
Repairs compound like interest. Each entry makes the next one faster: the tool is already sharp, the mistake already written down, the measurement already on file. The notebook is slow capital that pays out in saved Saturdays.
This gist is a copy of the notebook page, kept where text outlives paper.
Next: the lawn mower blade that finally got balanced.
