   So you’re saying you looked at all of the LPs of every fund and then every LP of those LPs (and so on) when you took your current and past positions and are sure you’ve never been paid a dirty dollar in the past? And you will do so in the f

   So you don’t feel bad for the employees at these companies?

   So in other words, tens of thousands of Silicon Valley tech employees at companies that took investment or could be bought out by a company that took investment from a fund that took investment from anything related to Saudi money stand to

   You mean the century where the 2nd half of it saw the greatest acceleration of invention amd wealth creation in history that has yet to be repeated? The most prominent time in history? That century?

   I've written in Python for ~13 years and I'm really enjoying Go. It's fast and its libraries (the few there are) seem to make a lot of sense. I don't think I would use it for daily scripting like the author, but for a la

    I picked up a t460s for $200 the other day to test out before getting some real horsepower. Absolutely loving it. Running Ubuntu 18 with i3-gaps.

    I saw that one. I'm not a particular fan of Django but integrating my library apart from Django's storage library wouldn't be difficult. Neither would be building a django library on top of mine. Any takers? :)

    This library is meant more for web apps and other applications built on Python. Not necessarily for backups.

    B2 is warm storage much more like S3 while cold storage is like glacier.

    Yes, on my TODO list is much deeper unit testing. I made this in four days and was just testing that it worked. It already has about 92% code coverage but I want to cover that fields are returned properly and such. Some help would be apprec

    admins: Will you please change the title to a Show HN? Thank you!

    Not if you're only egressing to B2 once to save and then egressing many times from B2 to serve.

    Depends upon your client SLA then. You can also store the file twice on B2 for still less than the cost of S3 :)

    Indeed. It's just never been publicized and personally I think the implementation could be better. Although with so many stars on this repo now I plan on maintaining it for the foreseeable future. Start adding feature requests everyone

    I'm not sure how many POPs they have so I do agree with that. I'm not shilling for B2 and have no affiliation with them. I've had good performance them but am US based.

    That's what I'm seeing.

    I'm definitely going to add multi-threading. I wrote this library in 4 days (look at the commit history). It was just something fun to do.

    That does indeed look cheaper. I'll have to make an SDK for them next :D edit: Woah, you edited your comment. What made you change from Wasabi?

    The idea behind this was to avoid Minio at least when using Python with a very simple to use SDK.

    I believe Laravel is PHP so you'd need a PHP library while this one is Python.

    I haven't added multi threaded stuff yet because I wanted it to be compatible with single threaded web servers like flask and django. I can and will add it if you want to add an issue.
