This article touches on the one major unanswered question I have about R2: CloudFlare's CDN ToS make it clear CF is meant to host websites and APIs, not content downloads [1]. Does R2 have similar ToS? It's reasonable that CF d

Unrelated to the article, but NYT is forcing me to login before reading the article. I guess the days of opening a private window to circumvent the three articles per month limit are over.

I feel the opposite, the arguments against ORMs largely boil down to "I can't really be arsed to learn SQL properly." ORMs are a leaky abstraction by nature and attempting to use one without understanding the underlying te

I don't think that's what I'm looking for, that's queuing at the front of the pipe but I need it queuing at the end of the pipe. Apache should be buffering and queuing lots of connections (with a timeout) and sending th

Unfortunately HAProxy doesn't buffer requests*, which is necessary for a production deployment of gunicorn. And for anybody using AWS, ALB doesn't buffer requests either. Because of this I'm actually running both HAProxy an

I know you're being flippant, but if this was Subversion I couldn't commit, checkout other branches, or really do anything. With git I can do everything except push and pull from Github.

I think 10-20% might be an overestimate, at least in my experience in the US. I don't think I've ever been in a building that has an accessible roof. Maybe if you could precision target second-story balconies you'd get 10-2

That has nothing to do with MySQL. Facebook operates their own DCs and hasn't indicated any interest migrating elsewhere.

Honestly I think the answer is simpler: People don't need better algorithms. Paxos and Raft are generally used to build service discovery and node coordination, these are not demanding workloads and overwhelmingly read-heavy. Even

Braintree (IIRC) had a really clever migration strategy, although I can't seem to find the blog post now. They paused all traffic at the load balancer, cut over to the new DB, and then resumed traffic. No requests failed, just a slig

The main advantage of this PEP over MultiError (IMO) is that standard except blocks will Just Work. For most use cases that will be sufficient, and those people will never have to think about this PEP.

As much as I can remember, us-west-2 gets new instances and features at the same time as us-east-1. (And IIRC eu-west-1 gets new stuff as well, but I don't pay much attention to that.) Was there anything in the past few years where t

CloudFront should let you configure header injection for responses. Just a simple list of key-value pairs. I've seen it requested before, it's a feature a lot of people want.

You likely already know this, but for the sake of those reading: XML itself is still alive and well, what's retired is the "Apache XML Project," a collection of XML-related software.
