New to Cortex but when looking at a comparison of Prometheus and InfluxDB (like https://prometheus.io/docs/introduction/comparison/#promethe... ) it appears that Cortex offers simi…

Thanks. Definitely worth the 120 billion nanoseconds it takes to watch.

Watching the live stream now ( https://live-stream.github.com/ ). Will likely use the Docker support near immediately. Hoping Singularity will be supportable as well.

Facebook's press release https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2019/03/keeping-passwords-secur... on the matter is pretty nonchalant: >Keeping Passwords Secure >As part of a routine securit…

Are these really simpler than an electric kettle and a Hario v60?

It sounds like the VMWare comment is most likely, but I thought I would share how I learned of the project just yesterday. There was a HN post yesterday about https://sr.ht/ and in…

In the OVH case, a modified kernel was being shipped without (apparently) following the guidelines. I've seen an AWS suffix on kernel upgrades and they may or may not have an agree…

I had just stumbled across https://github.com/facebookincubator/python-nubia and am anxious to try it out. Was wondering about the internal project it was factored out from. This a…

I have seen this discussed online several times. Here is a HN thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14192894 that indicates the text Feynman first used was Calculus for the …

monitoring thread for mentions of tooling. Seen teleport and vault - no mention yet of bless/blessclient yet.

I got the email about an hour ago. My first reaction was embarrassingly hipster.

I first heard the Minix thing in this talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iffTJ1vPCSo which I found, I think via a HN thread. Anyway, most of the articles rehash this talk and IM…

That's actually an interesting stat. If there are ~115 million US households and 20% have > $100,000 income, that is ~23 million households. If 18-24 year olds make up ~9.5% of the…

This is where I first got interested in MapD. The author has a new post detailing how to compile MapD: http://tech.marksblogg.com/compiling-mapd-ubuntu-16.html

I really liked the way that Iverson built up concepts in his [Arithmetic (PDF)]( http://www.jsoftware.com/books/pdf/arithmetic.pdf ) manual for J. I found it very intuitive and use…

On the GPU side of things, I can confirm that AWS p2.xlarge has worked well for me. It has one Tesla K80. Azure's offering is similarly priced. Back in November Google Cloud announ…

I remember back in those early days seeing job requirements that listed 10+ years .NET. Nice to see some people actually have that now.

For home play K.C. Munchkin actually turned out to be the better game.

This was a good idea for a test. I'll definitely check out the author's other stuff. Commenting briefly on cost: while the article mentions the free 32 bit version early on, the ac…

I have used and recommend [nvidia-docker]( https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-docker ) for exploration (at least for those with a docker-capable kernel as the base OS).

that was my thought. Though no Python yet: > AWS X-Ray supports tracing for applications that are written in Node.js, Java, and .NET.
