- capableweb 3y agoLast time gcsfuse was on HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35784889 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35784889), the author of rclone was in the comments: > From reading the docs, it looks very similar to `rclone mount` with `--vfs-cache-mode off` (the default). The limitations are almost identical. > However rclone has `--vfs-cache-mode writes` which caches file writes to disk first to allow overwriting in the middle of a file and `--vfs-cache-mode full` to cache all objects on a LRU basis. They both make the file system a whole lot more POSIX compatible and most applications will run using `--vfs-cache-mode writes` unlike `--vfs-cache-mode off`. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35788919 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35788919 Seems rclone would be an even better option than Google's own tool.
- tough 3y agoComments like this are why HN comments section is usually better than the news in it. Also hi capableweb I think your name rings a bell from LLM's/Gen AI threads
- capableweb 3y agoMe too! Hello! That's probably a sign I need to take a break from writing too many HN comments per day, thanks :)
- tough 3y agoDon't worry man, wasn't implying that, it's just cool to see the same names/non-faces around tbh. simon is likewise heh
