Ouch, yes: It's $1.50 PER DAY per 1000 daily active users. (I think everyone is so used to AWS prices being per month...)

SimpleDB is still operating. In fact, I imagine it'll get way more popular alongside Lambda.

That'd be $1500/mo for 1,000,000 daily active users, right? (Which doesn't include infrastructure costs.) That doesn't sound prohibitively expensive...

They might not put 100s on it (MVP, MVP, MVP), but they have traditionally done very good work in developer relations, technical support, documentation, example code, etc. This doesn't seem like a half-arsed project at all. I imagine i

I asked Jeff Barr if there were any plans to build an open source community around the Lumberyard code. Answer: "Yes, I believe so!" Whoa. https://twitter.com/jdub/status/696975443606396928

The theory is that if you phase out a given transfer payment at, say, $1000 per month, that reduces the incentive to earn more than $1000 per month. There's some evidence to suggest that's already the case with existing means test

Also, the "viewfinder" is one of those (relatively speaking) huge panels that fold out from the side. Try doing that with a 100% analogue camera! I reckon it's a clever hybrid. (Plus it has SD, USB, etc... but there's no

One interesting thing this (dated but still very relevant) article misses is timer coalescing. Most modern operating systems try to merge a bunch of timer actions into a single wake/interrupt. Not only does this leave more time for oth

That's what CloudFront[1] is for. :-) [1] ... and an async web server without hitting a dynamic backend on every page load...

My understanding is the accounting for services process happened prior to GCP, and isn't about GCP resources.

I have pretty strong doubts that the Google Cloud Platform team would have convinced the broader organisation to host customer stuff on their mission critical caches. As I understand it, there's not a lot of dogfooding (let alone coope

Joint holders can also enforce copyright, though open source codebases work more like collective copyright. That said, non-exclusive Linux kernel copyright holders have performed enforcement activities (quietly or noisily)...

Sure, it's flippant, but do recall that the entire concept of open source absolutely terrified IP lawyers not that long ago (and in some cases, still does). Lawyers who are too conservative to allow their company's developers to c

Not really. Your typical corporate IP lawyer might feel queasy about the collective copyright aspect, but so much of the open source world works this way now... they can suffer in their jocks. One important question they'll ask is: &qu

Apache 2.0 License + Runtime Library Exception + copyright owned by the contributor (i.e. no assignment or CLA) + good community structure and documentation + code of conduct... well done, Apple!

Wow, long time since I've heard that. (I loved "C'mon Kids"!)

I'm surprised and a bit disappointed that this new platform still exposes users to the idea of a container host. In Carina lingo, you have to create a "cluster" and choose the number of "segments" in it. Joyent&#x27

Yes, inspired by yesterday's discussion. Is the mailing list for general chiming in, or proper proposals? The proposals need proper thought and a Mozilla champion (Dan, maybe?), so I wouldn't want to noise it up with pleas. :-)

It'd be cool if MOSS could return funding Mozilla's own Persona hackers to work on a next gen open identity platform.

Wouldn't it potentially waste a bunch of memory, or does JIT output tend to be greater than a 4K page?

by jdub 11y ago
Yeah, it's one of the methods supported by Cargo. You can put them in the code or in separate modules. Cargo will also test your documentation examples. :-D

Still true, but you can use HAProxy (or Pound, or...) to terminate TLS, and pass the TCP connection through to Varnish 4.1 using the PROXY protocol (so you get the client IP).
