I see an on-screen keyboard on one of their promotional pictures, could this be used as a lightweight dumb terminal ? If not, what would be a possible e-ink device to display an SSH terminal over Wifi and pair with a bluetooth keyboard ?

It seems they accept writes as long as at least two clusters agree to accept it (which the majority in the 3 clusters etting the have). I would think that each cluster has the whole index, so any cluster can be used for reads. I would also

Memories ! I thought I have started to look into Docker in April last year. To make sure I didn't make up things, I looked into my git logs. The first reference to Docker in the commit message is: Author: Vo Minh Thu <noteed@g

Or maybe actually you think of yellow devices because you saw plenty of non-Fluke yellow multimeters and now letting them appropriate the yellow color everyone associated to multimeters is unfair ? I learned about Fluke making good multimet

I have posted a blog post[0] explaining I was building a redundant storage service for developers. It was on the front page for about 4 hours. I think the best place it got was about 18th. I didn't put analytics and wasn't very ca

It seems those are slides for a live presentation, so I guess you might also complain about the lack of sound or about how pointless it is to post slides on the internet. Or you might make a constructive comment. Or no comment at all. Still

I don't know exactly what I have to implement to support SSHFS. But really in my mind a service like Reesd (or S3) is used through a networked API to read and write files, not through an exposed file system (although sure it can be exp

I have read both this article and the Uber blog post. Although I don't follow closely what is happening (I'm from Belgium), it seems the blog post is short on "facts". They state they have been in contact, not that their

Shameless plug: I have started https://reesd.com/ . Not the S3 protocol, simply scp.

I guess we both understand things well enough to know that limits to draw are not rigid. That being said, here is my take on what you say. An app should logically behave as a single unit. I would say that's true, and that unit is a clu

It may be a matter of opinion but advocating to run cron, sshd, and so on in your containers, let alone in every single one by providing a base image to do that seems plain wrong. Let's take an example. You have Nginx, a web app, and a

The bare idea is very much similar to S3, i.e. a file store. I hope to bring a different value with things like webhooks, Docker images rebuilt automatically as files are uploaded (e.g. for reconfiguration prior to deployment on a cluster o

That would be similar. Indeed the redundant backend can be implemented in various ways. Now I would really like to experiment with Bup to provide historization in addition to deduplication (again this could be implemented with some underlyi

The beauty of Tarsnap is to provide a tar-like command-line tool. Here, while the later goal is to provide storage in a more generally accessible way, the beauty is to use scp as-is, which you already have (if you're a developer). A cl

Hi, author here. I know that some scp flags are not handled correctly or that I don't provide a nice story to list and delete files, but I wanted to explain what I was doing early. I plan to write a bit more, e.g. about how I use Docke

At the end of the post he says that only Python can parse Pickle. This is not really true. You can write a Pickle parsing library in any language (maybe some special use would not be possible). For instance I have implemented enough of it[0

It is all about balance. For instance it is important to make parts of your work fun and it is important to do the grunt work. It is important to learn new things and it is important to recognize that at some point you have to use what you

From their homepage I didn't get that ctl-c was an open source project; that's a good news to me. I started to list a few Docker-related services in a Gist and I see some of them are not listed in the blog post: https:/&#x2F

Indeed I got much comparison with Dropbox but I won't provide the kind of clients you talk about. I would like instead to target developers, building on tools they know such as scp but also, I hope/for instance, rsync or git. Than

Thanks a lot! Really sometimes it feels tiresome but it is all about putting the pieces together. I would really like to blog about those pieces; even if it is a lot of work, the pieces by themselves just look all warm and fuzzy and simple

So you changed from $0.50 / hour to $1.60 / hour. Did you first try with, say, 20 x 1x dynos (that would cost $1.00 / hour)?

That maybe looks like a sensible approach, but it really seems like another arbitrary approach to put the bar "higher". People have had such "requirements" since ages. "We only hire candidates with university degree
