We just did an internal migration to some ipv6 for some of our internal code so we could communicate with sites that use ipv6... Long story short, it was hard. Required custom lib recompilations, etc. I don't have all the details but

AWESOME that it's SVG but dot/graphviz supports SVG output. What I've been doing is I just have a dir of .dot files and then I have a gen.sh script which writes the SVG/PNG files. Dot is a bit more low level but more pow

Once I found out they were doing this I immediately cancelled my unlimited data plan. It's basically a scam and NOT what most people want. The essentially offer 1GB for $10 ... so 5GB is $50, 6GB is $60... Flat seems fair to me and kee

Those are the ones which scare me the most.. when you find them, they're potentially devastating, and you haven't hit them. Another I've seen is the potential landmine that can go of at ANY time and then one day, 5 years in t

Fascinating... wouldn't this be illegal? It falls into laws regarding hacking and network disruption. They're joining another network, and interfering with its activity. If the reverse was happening, say a hacker was going throu

Check out KairosDB... it is based on Cassandra and is very similar to OpenTSDB but IMO Cassandra is a bit easier to scale and maintain with fewer parts. We're using it in production... it's still early but there are about 1-2 doze

Wow. This is a really douchey thing to do... I mean even if people DID use the beach, how many people are going to be on it??? It's not going to be an eyesore. I'm firmly in the camp that lakes, streams, coastlines, can't be

I spent about 2 years of my life in my 20s hacking on elisp constantly. I was infatuated with it. Then I spent about 5-10 years using that platform as my IDE. Guess what... Last year I migrated to IntelliJ IDEA and won't EVER migrate

Really sorry to hear this.. I only new Len from the few times we hung out around Code Con in San Francisco and he was always amazingly nice, constructive, and curious about anything regarding computer science, tech, and generally a fun guy.
