I thought it was weird that they were claiming to be the first open cloud agnostic serverless provider.

I like this idea a lot. It would be cool with single sign on and a profile that shows what you've accomplished in each game. There are a few open source mmos to do a POC.

Thanks for the links I will definitely check this out.

The wikipedia links submitted that make the front pages are almost automatic reads for me. They aren't news so much as obscurities, and are usually pretty fascinating.

Lots of old video games come to mind, especially the online ones that had proprietary servers that were shut down (medal of Honor heroes 2, halo 3). I was going to say BlitzPlus but that's open source already.

I played one in the 2000s and loved it; odd that it aged as well as it did.

Interesting you mention CGI; I built https://bigcgi.com ( https://github.com/bmsauer/bigcgi ) primarily to address the issue of "any language" in FaaS environments. Seeing this takes away one of my

A fast-cgi implementation is something I've looked into if plain CGI is not fast enough. Initially I want to see what exactly the performance comparison is with plain CGI, and then iterate from there. As for resource utilization/c

I'm working on an experimental function as a service based on CGI apps. It has a lot of advantages of the article: - Process isolation - Close to hardware - No cold start But it also has some advantages like: - Any language, including

I spend a lot of time reading stuff, but I'm starting to think that what I really need is just confidence and persistence. I'm learning more and more that with many things in life, everything is a gray area. Trying to distill som

Thanks for the tip, I'll check it out.

I have thought of getting on BuiltWith, AlternativeTo, and StackShare. There's probably a way to find small companies doing this (and the job posting tip, which is interesting) but I haven't been as proactive as I could be, I gue

The problem is that what I'm building is a function as a service platform, a general development tool. So developers/managers are the target audience. I think it's a matter of finding the “BANT” (budget, authority, need, ti

Yes, and this is the part I can't seem to figure out. I think it's more of a personality/networking issue. Right now I have an MVP of a function as a service platform; a general purpose development tool. I'm thinking m

I fall into the "Build before talking to customers" trap constantly. Even though I know it's "wrong", it is hard to escape it because of the simple problem of not knowing who to talk to. The article suggests doing

What do you use windows 98 for? I always loved the os and have a box that runs an nes emulator.

This is a common technique in designing tests of a system; if you can make a table of inputs and expected outputs, you have a roadmap on what to test. I had a textbook that had a whole chapter about this, I will find the title and edit this

I’m also interested in OPs questions, and additionally would like to hear how many are using Lambda with the API Gateway, and how big of a pain point is cold start.

I left my first job out of school partially for moral reasons. The job looked fine on paper, but after a year in I started to question the ethics of their practices, so it made it really easy to leave for a better opportunity. As far as re

It isn't unreasonable for a supermarket to forbid someone that is disturbing the peace from entering.

I think it's a generalization to say that tech can't bridge distances and improve rural development. Our apps to communicate are run by corporations, and despite what their marketing says, are not built to connect us. Rural econom

I was trying to read up on what this was, it said it was a site focused on pixel perfect design? What does that mean exactly, lots of images, spacers, and pixel fonts?

This surprised me too; I had to do a wikipedia lookup to confirm.

It is very hot here in Cincinnati too in the 80's and 90's F; I think we are undergoing a global heat wave. I heard an interesting story on the radio about productivity and heat: https://www.npr.org/sections/g

I see the value of keeping a journal, and I've tried to do it a bunch of times, but I can never stick with it. I do maintain a hipster PDA [1] with index cards for ideas, general lists, and doodles/scratches. I've found that

I was just talking to a coworker about mechanical keyboards, and how it feels like a right of passage at this point to transcend into full techie. Like picking a side in Vim/Emacs. I'm thinking about getting one, /r/me

This is really well executed. I had a project like this on my idea list, although for the Raspberry Pi.

Personally, I'm a big believer in second chances in any facet of life, but people seem to act the way you're describing to Sourceforge, despite giving a pass to other entities. It's all a matter of personal perspective.

This is what gets me about Indie Hackers. So much of it is people selling stuff to other people selling stuff to them.

I've used SourceForge for a while for my hobbyist game development. I've never had a problem with them product wise; their tools work well and they're really making solid progress on the redesign. The malware incident was re
