Almost. Think of it like a bank account. You don't sum up every transaction amount across all time. Instead, to calculate your balance you start from the last statement balance (the last memento according to Greg Young) and apply newer

How about Arch Linux then? I love it and hate it at the same time. Rolling updates are amazing until they hose your system and you have to roll back updates.

I was hoping for 30+ year studies on this topic. Also, for things like LASIK surgery where people who have had LASIK 50+ years earlier and what effects it had on their vision. Results take time to measure.

The debate on cell phones and their effects is fun to watch. In another 30+ years we should have a solid body of evidence one way or another.

I have a few honest and open questions as a US-based small business with a handful of women who have recently had children or who are pregnant. Do you guys have any advice for how to balance the impact to the results that we receive from th

I was wondering if that was a joke, for added emphasis, or a mistake.

That was the first thing I thought of too! I wonder if he'll update the comic in light of these new findings.

If Matt feels that having telemetry on by default is the form of compensation he would like for his time/investment, I don't see that as a problem. I can see that different people would take exception to that which is why there&#x

I'm confused. If telemetry is an option and you can opt out, why not just do that? Also, because everything is open source, you're welcome to inspect the source to verify that it's behaving as expected and not reporting telem

We love ZeroTier. It's a great piece of software that makes layer 2 networking (and above) across WANs very simple and secure.

I never tweaked GC. With channels, I imagine there would be quite a bit of garbage. With the Disruptor, it was zero allocations and zero collections so no garbage was produced because every element in the ring buffer was long lived.

Good point. Go channels weren't nearly as efficient on non-x86 hardware. When I compiled my Go Disruptor port and ran it on my Nexus 5 mobile phone, I was getting about 9 million messages/sec.

It's interesting he's referencing the Disruptor pattern. I wrote the Go port of the Disruptor implementation that he links to ( https://github.com/smartystreets/go-disruptor ) a while back and it performed beau

We've had great success with HAProxy on multi-core without the warnings. The Stack Exchange operations did a blog post about an easy way to do it. Here's a sample config that does multi-core processing really well: https:/&#

Caddy doesn't require root. You can easily use systemd/upstart/custom scripts to run as an unprivileged user.

I'm investigating Consul right now along with HAProxy and consul-templates for a similar use case. One takeaway from this article seems to be that Consul isn't quite ready for prime time. The concluding message feels like Consul w

Is there some documentation anywhere talks about how Google Cloud (any product) creates isolation between various regions while at the same time exposing a simple "regionless" programming model?

by jonathanoliver 10y ago
That's what I was thinking. The various outages I've seen (at least big enough to get mentioned here) seem to affect things globally. The AWS model is traditionally having things isolated between regions. While that makes programm

Camlistore is another open source project which works well. It's a bit more technical than this one appears to be.

Or sites that don't tell you the max number of allowed characters and then quietly truncate the password for you. Then you have to guess how many characters they chopped off and try logging in until you get it right.
