Same here, fluentd is much better, performance wise. But then I had to give ES more RAM because it couldn't take the hammering. In fact, increasing the throughput to ES was causing some pretty spectacular crashes, with the /var&#x

I can understand they need to make money, but still a bit shady. Honestly though it's not something critical for my needs. Now if they could lower the resource hogging a bit, that would interest me... Maybe even pay for that.

I wonder how databases deal with this. I imagine there's the appropriate LC_COLLATE, but would it have an impact on performance?

If anything there's not enough employees owning the means of production, as this story shows.

There's the same situation in Europe too. One option is to build large car parks on the outskirts of cities close to the highways and with good access to public transport. This way people living outside the city center can still use th

Curious, how do you deal with renaming fields or tables? This is a (minor) pain point for traditional migration systems.

by nickserv 7y ago
Django migrations can be problematic because they're meant to be sequential and have interdependencies. I've had problems merging multiple feature branches because of this, even though there are no code conflicts. A system like Sa

The horror. I actually had a dev tell me he didn't trust doctrine (symfony project), so would do it all in SQL. Thankfully the project was relatively new so it was possible to rewrite everything using migrations.

Only major gotcha is when renaming fields: it'll drop the old field then create a new field, by default. You have to do the renaming by hand, trivial but can't be forgotten... Which is why you always test on staging first of cours

Yes, quite right, it's 1.1.1 that supports TLS 1.3

by nickserv 7y ago
Switching to TLS 1.3 will probably not really start in earnest until libssl 1.1.1 is installed by default on all major Linux distros. I'm running on Debian 9 and getting nginx to run TLS 1.3 took some work, nothing difficult, but when

I've used both and PyCharm wins for me. Much better ergonomics for handling projects, and some very useful plugins like the DB browser. The pay for version also has support for Django. However, I'll give Kdevelop another go with t

I hadn't thought of that, thanks for the idea. I'll do some tests and see how well that works.

After running some tests I was ready to deploy to a new production server, but unfortunately my hosting provider (OVH) doesn't offer a ready made image. After trying to use Debian as a starting point, and several failed boots, I threw

Another happy user here. Only we use Telegraf to gather the metrics on the servers, I've found that it's a bit more flexible than the normal node exporter. For alerts we have a mix of grafana and AlerManager.

Ask your friend to add it ;-) But more seriously the idea is that if enough people start contributing to the map, there's no reason it can't be as good as Gmaps. It's already quite good, depending on your area. In some places

I'm sure the convention will be scrapped once climate change starts to really bite and tens of millions from impoverished countries start heading towards rich countries. Already Europe is letting thousands drown in the Mediterranean.

I can understand going after the lawyers that set this up, that had no problems taking the immigrants' money when they knew they were on shakey legal ground. But going after the immigrants themselves seems really unfair to me. If your

As a startup without the time nor resources to roll our own stack, we went with the Mapbox tile server and the OpenLayers JS library for displaying to the end user. Since maps are a big part of our project, and we keep a decent amount of Ge

Did you add the address? The beauty of OSM is that anyone can edit the data set. For some things it's much better than Google, hiking trails and bike paths for example.

Seems like an important and potentially lucrative project but I'm a bit worried about its future - what happens after Brexit? It's lead by a British team, but many of the components are made on the continent, and it looks like hal

Sometimes a thing is worthwhile precisely because of the work involved. For me, it's panoramas... Even if a mid range smartphone makes it very easy to get great looking panos, I still prefer going at it with a DSLR and doing my own sti

Indeed, this seems to be the best way for a small code base that gradually grows in scope and criticality. It allows rapid development early on and better stability later in the project. I'm really glad that Python is making good progr

Breton and Basque are not Romance languages. Occitan and Catalan are more similar to each other than Catalan to Castillian or Occitan to French.

Good news for Erlang? I hope some of those dollars go to improving the language and VM.

Biggest problem for me is the template engine and its incoherence, followed by poor documentation. Also the lack of flexibility in content organization, although this seems like a common feature of static site generators, so I won't ho

The first link is an opinion piece, you do have to take those for what they are: opinion, not fact. Usually the Guardian opinion pieces tilt to the left/progressive viewpoint, but not always. This is something I appreciate, not being a

Generally a big DB query is made when the user enters the site or makes the first API request to load all relevant user data. Then the data is stored in a cache system, which will be faster and cheaper than having the user send the data on
