The form of hyperactivity I had was mostly fine to the teachers during my first years of school, but my inattentiveness made me unable to complete writing tasks and this was clear from my first year at school. Medication helped a great dea

When I was involved with the mechanics of an ESP delivering bulk mail for clients, I found SpamAssassin to be very useful for scanning e-mails even before they get sent in order to detect possible abuse.

To put this into perspective: palm oil for biofuel and heating currently makes up around 60% of the palm oil imports into Europe. Greenpeace has been targeting European food companies over palm oil where the majority of the increased palm o

As much as I like elasticsearch, it's been less fun to work with after Kibana v3 (which, I think, only works with ES v1?). I can only imagine people needing really large elasticsearch clusters nowadays don't really use Kibana for

The rest of the world can thank people in the US for spending rather large sums on certain treatments. In the UK the treatments are covered by the state at no cost to the patient, but it's only a limited set of available treatments wh

I think we'll see a trend of cloud fragmentation again, once there are more good cloud software stacks. Imagine something like OpenShift + OpenStack + Ceph that does not suck and can be controlled by something like Terraform and suppo

I've been generally impressed with how quickly niggly quirks with Terraform seems to go away with new versions. My main concern with Terraform is that there's nothing anywhere near a decent competitor out there.

Terraform, certainly. It was a bit rough around the edges about a year ago but it's been getting really good. I've only been using the free cli version. Number one advantage is that it's much better at telling you what'
