I finally got the courage to deploy new version under heavy traffic, so it's mid 2020 now. No more snarky comments for half a year :)

Very sensible viewpoint, thank you. Perhaps perpetual licenses and subscriptions could co-exist as alternatives, and customers can choose whichever they prefer.

by HenriNext 7y ago
Sure, I can add that to next major beta. Thanks for the suggestion!

by HenriNext 7y ago
Yep, it was already mentioned somewhere here, but basically: I agree & will do. I look forward to your feedback on the actual product, be as brutal as you can / want! :)

Hmm, if setting --primary didn't help, then it might not have worked (aka Bug in BugJail..). I'd love to check that further tomorrow, if you have couple of minutes? As for the search/query timeline, I'm afraid to say any

Alright, I'll add writing blog post about the implementation to my TODO list. And my feeling is closer to exhausted than encouraged, I was just going to bed, after day of 45c heat, when the half-finished landing page hit HN front page

I don't know! How much would you pay for it? However, I can promise that the pricing model will be perpetual license based, NOT a subscription that "only costs you one cup of coffee per day"..

Thanks, I'll do as you recommend: JRE as dependency and add .tar.gz packaging. And shoot me an email if you'd like notification when done(my email is in the contact page).

Yep, I think video would be a perfect fit. About performance impact and program size: BugJail can be used also with hardcore programs, like databases and compilers, where event based record-and-replay debuggers typically struggle. There&#x2

I totally agree on the demand, but on the effort side the dynamic nature of JS makes it really tricky to do right. Thanks for your comment & let me know how it goes!

by HenriNext 7y ago
Nope, at least not at the moment: BugJail is closed source.

by HenriNext 7y ago
The source and tracing sides will definitely get fully integrated. This is only the second beta that even has the source side at all, so it's just "early days". The line/statement level traditional debugging is possible

If you also add GUI after the database, then it mostly is :)

Thanks for the feedback. I'll follow your advice. It probably doesn't matter, but the third screenshot wasn't any kind of planned attempt of being edgy/cool. Just another 16h coding day ending in bit more lighthearted wa

by HenriNext 7y ago
Thanks, really great point. BugJail actually started life as internal tool for dynamic analysis, not for debugging. The longer term vision is merging of dynamic and static analysis, so not exactly, or only, "better debugger".

I hope I didn't (again) express my self badly... Of course I'm not expecting to be spoon-fed with a ready made pricing model, but was just trying to get overall sentiment.. You make a lot of great points, and this is one area wher

by HenriNext 7y ago
Thanks. My current plan is pretty much exactly that: perpetual license for $ X including 1 year of updates, then $ 0.5X for additional year of updates/maintenance. The main thing I'm uncertain about is the value of X :)

by HenriNext 7y ago
Well, I will :) I'm doing this mainly to help other developers, so I don't care that much if my monthly recurring revenue or whatever doesn't please Sandhill Road.

by HenriNext 7y ago
I totally understand your point. The search functionality is currently under development, and it's by far the most critical 'missing' feature. As a workaround for webapps: using the 'Capturing Assistant' and configu

Actually, it does work without source code (or, should work) The left side 'CallTree' is fully functional, and shows owner instances, arguments and return values. If you click those, then the Object/Array is displayed at bott

I'm actually half-way migrating from Kubuntu to Arch.. But sure, I'll get .tar.gz done. And if you'd like to get notified when done, just send your contact info (my email is in the 'contact' page). Thanks for the fe

by HenriNext 7y ago
The execution logs (or "Captures", in our Jail terminology..) do get fairly large if you capture something hardcore, like database or compiler. For normal web/business/enterprise applications you can configure BugJail to

Neither actually. But if there's interest for the technical side, I could perhaps write a blog post?

by HenriNext 7y ago
Thanks, actually I'd gladly accept your offer! Seems I really need help with my English :) My email is in the contact page :)

by HenriNext 7y ago
Yeah, Java 9+ is on roadmap for next beta. When the previous major beta was released there was one dependency that didn't support Java 9 and locked everything to 8. If you'd like get notified when Java 11 support is ready, you can

That 2018 is a really unfortunate typo, but I feel hesitant to deploy fix now as the traffic is heavy. I agree on all points, and have no excuses; the landing page wasn't ready for being surprise featured in HN. Many thanks for your f

Thanks, that 2018 is a very unfortunate typo, should have been 2019. And agreed, video would be great, but it takes fair bit of time away from development, so I'm undecided.

Actually, the 20 million events per second is the real event count, and on top of that comes processing..

by HenriNext 7y ago
There is no single trick, just lot of hard work. If there's interest, I can write a blog post about this.

Thanks for the feedback. Quick replies: - The Linux packaging will be re-done from scratch (previous beta had completely re-done packaging for Windows and Mac, re-done Linux packaging coming in next beta) and I'll make sure all these g
