   Most bare metal providers nowadays contact you just like AWS and say "hey your hardware is failing get a new box.". Unless it's something exotic it's usually not long for setup time, and in some cases just like a VM it&#

   As someone who took SSRIs for 2 years this is a bullshit statement. They allowed me to feel something other than only depression and anxiety which allowed me to improve myself over time. Please do not spread such misinformation without any

   I manage everything soup to nuts with Terraform. If you know something vastly better please let me know, especially considering the changes to 0.12. It's a very well integrated system.

    I've started heavily using Nomad recently and it's a real joy. Adding things in is just so easy because it doesn't do much and (mostly) everything is very well defined. I cannot suggest it highly enough. An example is I set

    AWS SAM nails this so hard. They straight up have hundreds of pre-generated tests depending on what your functions input is, and you can run _every_ test locally.

    I have not bought a book from Amazon in years... I go elsewhere for books nowadays. I'm one data point, but I have a close friend who works for an online book marketplace and they're doing extremely well.

    The author explicitly states why they did this. Chrome for Netflix and Spotify only, and Office 2007 because it's better than LibreOffice for their parents.

    In my experience this exists for ISPs, but it's not easily available. I've used ISP brokers in the past and they've had this information in some proprietary systems when I've asked for quotes and proposals.

    If you can swallow the privacy concerns, Chromebooks/Chrometops seem to be remarkably reliable and 'just work.' My main experience with them is in Google Hangouts through a 3rd party (Promevo), and the only troubleshooting I&

    I used TF very early on, for versions 0.3 and 0.4. It was unpleasant at best, but very functional. I've began using it again with 0.11, and with 0.12 on the horizon it's much easier to use than it ever has been in the past. It u

    Actually an interesting solution to this is using something like kafka-connect. Debezium specifically has libraries around pgsql -> pgsql replication using kafka + kafka-connect that work shockingly well. The lag is not much differen

    That's super bizarre. Are you running MySQL with no ACID on EC2 while leaving RDS at its defaults or something?

    by chucky_z 8y ago

    You can replicate out of RDS without any problems. Shoot, you can run a master in EC2 and a replica-only in RDS. I do this presently because I have some custom stuff I do for MySQL which needs it's own EC2 instance because RDS doesn&#

    This is also an older benchmark. I'd be curious to see this used against postgresql 11; there have been massive speed increases in 10 and now 11. One of the most interesting things is you can shard postgres extremely easily now by usi

    Is Owl similar to ANTLR? Could you explain the differences between the two languages, and what makes a parser unique if they're similar? I'm curious because I've quickly run across two of these types of projects now, but adm
