Built with LESS... What's the current state of SASS vs. LESS? It seems like a lot more CSS frameworks are using SASS and it has more plugins, tools, mixins, etc. But I haven't kept tabs on it in a while.

More recently, Ex Machina. Seriously great movie. Beautifully shot, amazing sound, great effects.. You can watch it two, maybe three times in a row.

Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for the feedback. In regards to the "font", that was actually done in photoshop. It's meant to look a bit pixelated and "off". But I'll probably tweak it to clean it up.

Hmm, not sure what's going on with that. Try again, I changed the captcha type.

Technically it is secure over HTTPS. Is there a specific concern you have?

by donutdan4114 11y ago
Indeed. Although setting up a central data server with an API takes a bit more work. However, if you're willing to do the work and set all of that up yourself, than yes, the service isn't for you. I see it more as a simple way for

This service isn't designed to compete with something that has dedicated VMs and that kind of thing. It's vastly cheaper than most other data stores for this reason. Granted, it will scale for very heavy use. Right now, it's

Currently the service is in rackspace, and it's not cheap hosting. But yes, "unlimited" means as fast as the service can handle among all the other requests that are incoming too.

by donutdan4114 11y ago
You bring up a good point though, the service is much more focused on smaller data sets. I'm not trying to compete with huge storage services.
106.
by donutdan4114 11y ago
Thanks for the feedback, I will review the pricing to data storage cost. My general thought is that most people won't max out the system, and that the cheaper accounts will offset the cost of the larger ones.

For personal use, this page explains how to setup a local script to work with the API. Makes it super easy to access whatever data you want across different computers. https://tinycache.io/documentation/examples

My problem with a service like that is that once you jump out of the free plan, their prices jump way up. tinycache is a small service for small applications with small pricing.
109.
by donutdan4114 11y ago
Yes, similar idea. Mostly focused on personal applications, and small apps. Will probably add additional features in the future for doing more advanced queries, message queues, etc.

Thanks for the feedback, I updated the pricing message to be clearly max-keys of 100,000 for gold plan. All feedback appreciated.
111.
by donutdan4114 11y ago
Okay I will update the messaging to be more accurate. Good feedback.
112.
by donutdan4114 11y ago
Okay

by donutdan4114 11y ago
We never drop keys unless the expire time is set. As long as someone isn't abusing the service by flooding it with random data, it will scale for them.

Would definitely be interested in figuring out a way to access the api securely in JS.
115.
by donutdan4114 11y ago
Indeed it's definitely focused on small applications or personal use.
116.
by donutdan4114 11y ago
Mostly for small scripts and apps that could store data without having to setup your own back-end.
117.
by donutdan4114 11y ago
Hey everyone, all feedback is appreciated. The main point of the service is speed, and ease-of-implementation. It's very easy to setup an account, and the API is very simple. Always curious what fellow HNer's opinions are.

Privacy isn't a one-size-fits-all type of thing. I think there is an inherit difference between reading license plates that are publicly visible on the roadway versus tracking license plates over time and storing that data for a long e

Okay, now what conclusions can we draw from this?
