Not fully, you need to add that the legacy airline is funding Jet Blue. Elon Musk explicitly said SpaceX would have not been able to achieve its goals so fast and so cheaply without the access to all the data from NASA. Basically, SpaceX wa

DTU is providing extremely good education. You consider taxes as unfair, but if they are still in play, after getting left and right governments, it is maybe because in fact, Danish people are happy with them.

Danemark is a very pro-entrepreneur country. If you want to setup a business, it is very easy, you can tax deduct nearly everything and you will have all the benefits of a very well run country. I have been working for both funded and boots

Look at the pictures of the house (cf. comment by topbanana), the house is beautiful, just a pleasure to look at the clean minimalism. This goes in the same direction than this house: http://www.simondale.net/house/index.htm Corresponding

Hi Solomon, thank you for your nice comments. Bombela very nicely explained the whys HAProxy, with his explanations everything fall in place nicely (and I must say, I will test drive HAProxy with ZMQ).

Why not, I added it on my list of things to write about. Thank you.

Thanks for the comment. If you use the right devices, you do not really need "a dozen" more sockets for HA. But your justification why you prefer HAProxy is what really matters. Every technology is applied in a given context and your cont

Just cross the Atlantic, open a subsidiary in France. You will find there a lot of extremely qualified engineers for everything nuclear related.

For Photon, a micro framework for Mongrel2, we use regex. Even with 100's or 1000's of routes, you cannot even see the cost of preg_match when benchmarking because the regex are organized in a tree following the URI structure like Django. I

What I mean is that most of the time people tend to fire heavy duty classes or libraries to implement these patterns when you can implement just what you need with very little overhead using the built-in language constructs. I use both Pyth

After 10 years of coding in PHP both OSS and products, creating 2 frameworks used in production on numerous websites, I still wonder. Why do you need to stuff interfaces in the mix? Why such complex patterns for something so simple? What I

It would not be suicidal, why? Because they have the 22nm lead and will most likely keep the lead for years. It means that Apple will not be able to go back to another provider with the same performance. Which means they can lock Apple and

Do am I wrong or you still hit the DB for each model object? But of course you save all the complex rendering (possibly SELECT for children) from the key, right?

Question of taste I suppose. In this case, I needed a simple way to manage a lot of dynamic processes. Normally you have process supervisors which are tuned to run your MySQL, MongoDB or whatever. That is, you would create one profile, ofte

You can definitely do that as you will get inter node communication over the EC2 private IP. You can define your EC2 firewall to also segment your production/staging/testing setup. This would be very elegant.

It is not a grid. It is just a process supervisor which can be controlled from a central point. Nothing more, but it does the work well. You can of course integrate it into a larger system, like what I have done for a PaaS: http://notes.ce
