I used VNC a few times to connect to a Mac build box ( I only used Linux professionally ) and ran into a lot of problems with artifacting ( even on a dedicated Gigabit LAN ) or mor…

Just as a historical note, I meant to type C Star ( C\* ) but HN's formatting changed c\* into C. C\* is shorthand for Cassandra.

Knowing some of the FC people first hand, MongoDB did actually serve them fairly well for a substantial amount of time. Until they started hitting max limits, it didn't really make…

I am starting to hope for a PyPy 2.8 or a PyPy 3000 that removes the GIL. Will have to wait and see how STM plays out.

You guys have been hiring consecutively for the last 3 months and the rejection letter for two of those months is the same formulaic response. Perhaps you need to refine what exact…

Just separated from a company over some employment contract issues. Taking it easy for the month and working on my own stuff, still I would be open with working on any cool idea's …

This is nice to hear, I suppose. I just separated from a company due to failure to pay/contract term violations and been thinking the odds of me finding gainful employment would be…

Tend to agree, but to be fair whenever a major site/service ( Reddit, github, netflix etc ) goes down, it is inevitably posted.

This is perhaps the most elaborate "fuck you" to asnine interview questions. Fizzbuzz was a great acid test but now a days people who can't solve `a = 1+2; a == ?` know fizzbuz som…

Vbox's "api" is kind of an abomination. Vagrant succeeds because it parses sometimes non-machine friendly command line executable output.

That's too bad.

Issue is wget. >U.S. prosecutors pointed out that wget was not on the list of “approved” programs for use in facility where Manning worked. I know it sounds trivial but it was an u…

Taking a page from something I learned from MySQL replication tricks, have you thought about trying a master -> inner slaves -> slaves out peers? Where there's one inner slave per …

I have a widget like this for AWS+Virtualbox, it sorts all instances across all regions into tag name groups, by ip, by region, and by instance type. Unfortunately I know it only w…

Since friday I've been arguing with a project owner about the use of uuid1 in their project as I can rapidly and reliably cause uuid1 collisions in a single process in under 1 seco…

Just got a client off a container based provider and it wasn't too great an experience ( dramatically slow networking, unreliable file I/O ). Granted I could, and can continue to, …

Let's see, carry the N, divide by P and "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine"

Funny memory, at a startup weekend in a team as the only technical resource. Had my headset on but wasn't listening to music... was somewhat amusing as everyone passed out C letter…

I am not in anyway affiliated with GS/Escape and have 0 influence on their operations, but given what I know of them and that it only replicates what several other API libs provide…

What did your API provide ( downloads or just search?)

But everyone else seems to like a good pitchfork witch hunt!

In the space of half a day, vision in my right eye deteriorated to the point that I can't even see an eye exam chart with it. I've already gone to the hospital and going back tomor…

Just in context of the subject, I bet there is an app to measure how burned out you are on apps.

I've seen a bash migration thing in a production environment before but yours is a lot cleaner and well organized.
