(disclaimer: I'm one of the Libcloud developers) I want to add some context to this. Our current abstraction provides a relatively simple API which is guaranteed to work across multiple providers. If you want to access provider specifi

It shows how easy it easy to write your own function because all you need to do to send an email is perform a single HTTP request.

Project Awesome is an HTTP proxy which means it's even a higher abstraction than a Ruby library :) In any case, you should have a look at Libcloud ( http://libcloud.apache.org/ ), jclouds ( http://jclouds.org ), deltacloud ( http://deltaclo

Disclaimer: I'm author of the blog post. The title might be a bit misleading, but a first commit to Whiskey was actually made about a year ago ( https://github.com/cloudkick/whiskey/commits/master?page=12 ), before Mocha existed.

Just FYI, apache mod_proxy_balancer also supports HTTP 1.1 and you can configure it during run-time if you have mod_status enabled.

Any special reason why you haven't used something like libcloud (deploy_node ...) - http://libcloud.apache.org/ ? Then the script would work with multiple providers, not just Amazon.

We actually do have an install script. It is not the best one, but you should be good to go in a few simple steps: 1. downloading a tarball 2. unpacking it 3. running "scons install" Scons (our built tool of choice) is an extra dependency,

Service management part is also abstracted away pretty well, so it should be fairly easy to write a new backend for your favorite service manager (supervisor, upstart, etc.).

Nothing new here. Node wasn't ever really meant to be used for CPU intensive tasks - especially the ones like this which you can fairly easy parallelize.

Awesome book (+ pretty pictures). I have read it online about a year ago, but I still ordered my copy from Amazon.

It "kinda" supports LAN sync. Files still first need to be transfered to the cloud first before you can sync them over LAN. At least it was like this the last time I have looked at it (a few months ago).

Nice to see a new release, but there is still no official support for a parallel execution :( There are some forks with a parallel support, but all of the ones which I have tried are pretty buggy / incomplete. I have signed up for a Fabric

Yeah, YubiKeys are great. I have been using mine for about a year now and I also use a YubiKey PAM module to log in into my Ubuntu workstation. If you search google a bit I am pretty sure you will find a discount code to get it even cheaper

Yeah, I was thinking about doing a similar thing here at Cloudkick. Currently, our test suite is not that large and it takes around 6-8 minutes to complete, but with testing every minute counts (testing is generally not that fun and a slow

If you feel creative, you could try to build your own temperature probe using Arduino + LM35 sensor + stainless steel tube + some solder. The datata sheet claims, it can read temperature between -55°C - 150°C, but I never tested its limit s

No matter how much I love the service, I hate it when a service wants access to "update your data".

Yeah, same here. I will still need to clone a repo if I need to quickly find or grep for something, but it's definitely way more useful for reading through the code then the default github file browser.

It is no magic, in the simplest explanation it all comes down to the law of thermodynamics and calorie balance. If you are interested in this kind of stuff, check Lyle's website[1]. He has many good articles about this kind of stuff. [1]:
