It's in the docs … on my servers this fixes things as well: S=my_server ; ssh $S 'mkdir -p ~/.terminfo/f/' ; scp /usr/share/terminfo/f/foot $S:~/.terminfo/f/foot PITA still.

Turns out, Karma isn't a bitch after all.

We recently implemented a simple streaming server based on Openresty and Redis. Redis is used as buffer. We load tested it up to 2000 mountpoints (128kbit mp3 streams) with 15.000 …

I just moved from a late 2014 MBP running Arch to a Precision 5520 (more or less the business variant of the XPS15) running Alpine. Both feature an i7 HQ, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD. Both…

Couldn't find a public test-repo on the front page. Anyone wanting a test drive without signup, here you go: https://niko.gitly.io/ruby-shout I love the speed and the (repo interna…

I was excited for a moment. Then found out neovim doesn't support -x. And this is why: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/694 (tldr; vim encryption is unsecure and thus remove…

3. is the reason why NGinX is the recommended proxy in front of webapps with scarce parallelism (for example Ruby with Unicorn; see http://unicorn.bogomips.org/PHILOSOPHY.html for …

What about Nix ( https://nixos.org/nix/ )?

Thanks for the upgrade link. I missed that. Great that NCHAN is (almost; besides directive prefix) configuration compatible! The "Subscribers" section of "Push Module" should inclu…

Thanks for your work! Actually we (laut.fm) are using the HTTP Push Module for our public API for a live stream of tracks which get played on our ~ 1500 icecast stations. We offer …

We're using a home baked solution using our own config server ( https://github.com/niko/goconfd ) which evaluates templates POSTed to it. Combined with some trivial shell loops ove…

Offtopic. But still: Thanks. Nice.

Nice article. Thanks. Does proxying icecast streams with NGINX work when the protocol is not HTTP but ICY?

Nice. Went straight over to verify. And now the best part. I'm on a plan that's not even sold any more (10GB). Which just got "doubled" to 30GB. put.io <3

µBlock is great. I used Ghostery first and then Disconnect. But with µBlock in advanced mode I can block facebook.com on all sites but facebook, twitter.com on all site but twitter…

Nice! Using it as slave of a server side redis would be fun. :)

For scenarios where I felt etcd/gconf/consul is overkill I wrote goconfd ( https://github.com/niko/goconfd ). Features: * reads config from a json file * GET requests with deep lin…

Two years ago I implemented something different, but in green: https://github.com/niko/green I had a juice version in the pipe but I didn't like that I had to use yellow for that. …

(For us) Docker is not about security or scalability but about (good enough) isolation, separation of concerns and reproducability. Let me elaborate. * Isolation: Docker enables us…

You're right. It's more like a docker philosophy or best practice, not a restriction. And a best practice not everybody agrees on that is [1][2]. I'm using some docker containers b…

Nice! Thanks. A perfect fit for my current project.

I tried it. Compiled fine. The example conf file has some chinese comments in it. Most of the basic configuration is pretty obvious. I started the server and it serves an index.htm…

Good read, thanks. Is it possible to run an own, modified version of an open source app on sandstorm.io? As a non-techie user? Like - say - a small modification of Wordpress?
