About The “Memory Barrier”

[Contains Manhua Spoilers]

What is the “Memory Barrier”?

First: The fact that Bai Yuechu is a very special individual and is completely different from the rest of the other reincarnations, especially with the phenomenon of the multiple-souls in his body; Even the memories themselves are protected, so no one can see them, even Bai Yuechu himself

Second: The “Memory Barrier” role is to be a barrier that prevents anyone, no matter who is it, from seeing the sealed memories and at the same time act as a guide to Bai Yuechu and displays the memories to him, but on the condition that Bai Yuechu himself must have the desire to see them because if otherwise, he would not be able to see them nor the “Memory Barrier” can force him to do so, but only Bai Yuechu’s will itself will open the buried memories for him to see

Third: When Bai Yuechu sees the memories in this way, he will see them as a third party, meaning that he will see them as if he was watching a TV and not experiencing the memories as what happened in the Second Arc flashback in the Donghua (the Third Arc in the Manhua)

Fourth: The “Memory Barrier”, no matter what he is asked, he will not be able to answer because the Shining Monkey has put on him a spell or a curse that prevents him from answering anything related to the Shining Monkey and the forbidden memories. Meaning, he can only display the memories that he is allowed to display at that time.

Fifth: The “Memory Barrier” has the same appearance as Dongfang Yuechu, has the same feelings and behaves as he does, and is always watching Bai Yuechu from the inside.

Sixth: The “Memory Barrier” does not want to erase Bai Yuechu’s existence nor does he want him to die. He is respectful of his decision and gives him the choice if he wants to see the memories or not and believes that Bai Yuechu himself must follow his own path and search for the answer himself.

“Reincarnation and continuation of fate,

What should be remembered will eventually be remembered.…..

After all, it's time to come back.…..

It's just that now,

Can you bear it?”

PS: The Shining Monkey = San Shaoye (The Third Young Master) Of Aolai

I just like to keep calling him that :)

Differences between Locks, Mutexes, and Semaphores

Differences between Locks, Mutexes, and Semaphores

  James writes to me:

I’m having trouble finding concrete definitions for Locks, Mutexes, and Semaphores

What I do know is:

Semaphores keep track of how many processes have gained access (“P”) to a resource and block (suspend and send to priority queue) processes once it’s maxed out. They have no concept of ownership and anyone can call unlock (“V”)

Binary semaphores are the same as above except…

Reading in either direction from this blog post was also pretty enlightening. It has good links, too~

This page on cppreference.com is surprisingly in-depth but some of the related pages are pretty vague and imo outright misleading.

Read through the annotated slides of a talk about the java memory model, apparently. No particular reason but now I'm reading about non-blocking algorithms.

Hint, its all about memory barriers.
