Their creativity in these board designs is fun to watch. They have managed to pack so much into that board area, given a little stretch outside the standards. It's a shame Mini-ATX never really caught on. It must be an interesting cult

I've built machines around these "deep" form factor boards in both Fractal Node 804 and Coolermaster NR200 cases. They fit fine, no surgery required. As to the latter question, until/unless AMD updates TR Pro, this is th

I’m sorry I have but one upvote to give, but those who aren’t local don’t seem to have any notion of how stringent environmental and air quality regulations are in California in this arena. Nobody wants the LA smog of the 1970s back, but co

Thanks for laying the groundwork for us with Redis! Before I moved on to working on our Ruby VM, I was doing the work on our Redis fork for Haplo. Robey was working on the routing middleware in Scala. Yao would have taken over from me when

Regarding tweet distribution, I was one of the folks who built the first scalable solution to this problem at Twitter (called Haplocheirus). We used the Yahoo “Feeding Frenzy” design, pushing tweets through a Redis-backed caching layer. Fee

"goes-intos and goes-outtas" - love it. Buffer counts and buffer sizing is also a notoriously cut-throat game in vendor marketing, almost on par with (mis-)use of the term "wire speed". This is not an easy/cheap pro

I usually buy used enterprise gear, and have been in a similar situation: switch ports are (relatively) cheap, anything that needs an actual CPU to do routing is spendy. I've gone to Mikrotik for routing 10Gb in the home now. Excuse th

10/40Gb hasn't been the standard in data centers in a number of years. My house is entirely 10Gb (save for wireless), in part because older enterprise gear at those speeds is so cheap. 25/50 and 100/400 have supplanted 1

It's true: I've had trouble determining what exactly your point is, as you seem to think you know more about FaunaDB's architecture than you do. You're under the mistaken impression that we have the same data/log ar

I’m very much interested in dialect support, too. Also, your iPad rendering could use some attention. I will definitely be using this regardless!

I’m no fan of JSON as a configuration language, but I tried using SDLang with dub and quickly returned to JSON. Dub would feel slightly (slightly!) more polished if it used a more common package format. TOML would be a good choice.
