Primes¶
- Idealized-Substrate Fallacy
- In distributed computing, the named instance, the "fallacies of distributed computing" enumerate idealizations routinely embedded in code — the network is reliable, secure, homogeneous, topologically stable, zero-latency, infinite-bandwidth, zero-cost, single-administrator — none of which hold, so systems built on them fail at scale, partition, or attack.
This sourceEnumerates the false idealizations routinely embedded in distributed code — the network is reliable, secure, homogeneous, topologically stable, zero-latency, infinite-bandwidth, zero-cost, single-administrator — that fail at scale, partition, or attack. (Deutsch articulated seven of the fallacies c. 1994; Gosling added the eighth c. 1997.)

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
