[14:16:36] <rgarcia_> is there a reason why you can't start a serf agent and simultaneously tell it to join a cluster?
[14:16:56] <rgarcia_> seems awkward to have to run another cmd to tell it to join
[14:17:43] <Kyle> thought you could?

[14:19:27] <Kyle> heh, guess you can't
[14:20:05] <Kyle> rgarcia_: could use a member join event, look for you, and serf join then?

Context: I was asked for a list of interesting reading relating to "distributed databases, behavior under partitions and failures, failure detection." Here's what I came up with in about an hour.

For textbooks, "Introduction to Reliable and Secure Distributed Programming" is a superb introduction to distributed computing from a formal perspective; it's really not about "programming" or "engineering" but about distributed system fundamentals like consensus, distributed registers, and broadcast. Used in Berkeley's Distributed Computing course (and HT to @lalithsuresh) Book Site

Notes from courses like Lorenzo Alvisi's Distributed Computing class can be great.

There are a bunch of classics on causality, [Paxos](ht
