Overall quite usable. I have been using it for a couple of months and I haven't had any major issues with it. There are some slight differences in cursor behavior between vim and nvim but I got used to it.

Its funny that he uses Docker as a build and installation tool for nsenter. If you look at the installation example from the nsenter github page it shows how you can mount your host's /usr/local/bin inside the container

I used Puppet for about 4 years in a critical production environment and let me tell you, Docker is not only hype. The reason why a lot of people(including me) are excited about Docker is because it brings a clean architectural paradigm to

I would give Toptal a try. It seems like they are trying to establish a solid relationship between companies and freelancers and they care about both sides. They also make sure to properly screen all applicants before they allow them on the

There were loads of interesting talks and of course it depends on ones personal preferences. I personally found the following talks very interesting, hinting at the continued commoditization and programmability of the infrastructure: https

Spot on. Once an image has been built its safe to say that it can be moved around and ran even after a lot of time has passed. The build process is another story; even though you have the steps(the logic) for creating the image(the result),

Well, I think the difference is that now, the beards, awkward glasses and brown trousers are fashionable. So what was once ridiculed and avoided, is now praised and desirable.

The project is based on Docker. The nice part about it is that its really convenient to interact with the Docker daemon via its http api, with a minimum amount of work. Although all the underlying tech that Docker is built upon was widely k

I am working on something like what you are suggesting. I currently have only the email container done(Postix/Dovecot) and working on a small cmdline tool that will take care of bootstrapping the containers by asking a few simple quest

Some times you can get around this issue by removing the SFP checks in the drivers, which is the case with some Intel cards.

Tent and now Flynn. You are building some foundational pillars that have the potential to empower a lot of people. Great work!

I think they do take responsibility, just not as much as those people higher up the power ladder.

The underlying technology(LXC) is quite similar to OpenVZ, the main difference being that LXC comes standard with the Linux kernel while OpenVZ comes as a module. They are both lightweight virtualization technologies that create separate pr

I guess that settles it. Everybody should just forget about distributed social networks and get on with their lives. In all seriousness, he did sum up some of the challenges distributed social networks face, but they are just that, challeng

Having the details and characteristics of the b-trees(among other things) in memory allows you to consider them as possible solutions to a problem you are facing. If you dont know the details you would probably not know they are a good fit

I'm reading through "Consciousness: a very short introduction" and one of the points that the author makes is that these kind of proccesses(object detection) are distributed throughout the brain, and that we have specilized "circuits" for m

What you are really proposing here is to take away competition from the market. This would mean that you need another way of assigning the winner(buyer or seller, in case there are multiple ones wanting to buy the same stock); Some ways of

There is already quite a bit of work done regarding using DNSSEC as a PKI for distributing keys(any kind). One relevant paper is http://www.acsac.org/2005/papers/49.pdf . The nice part about storing public keys in DNS and authenticate them

The next step is standardizing a protocol for inter-social-network communication. Open flow between Google+, Facebook and other small compatible networks and standalone clients :) I hope Google will do the right thing, like they sometimes d

My point exactly. I guess my explanation is lacking, but what I meant when I said that the exchange would be left with a deficit in bitcoins, is that they would not be able to create more "real" bitcoins, than there were initially deposited

Indeed, if people would keep the money inside the exchange all the time, they would be able to artificially create more bitcoins in their system without being noticed. In case all people would try to take all their money out, the exchange w

This is definitely not a solution intended for hobbyists. This is a solution for big HFT players that have optimized already all their trading components, from exchange proximity to fine grained application optimization.(and everything in b
