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 similar horizontal scalability fe

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.

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 looking at that I noticed the project used

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 agreement to pay, but I'm thinking _very definitely_ is

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 appears to be it.

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 Practical Man by J. E. Thompson. Both are

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 IMO its a solid 30 minute investment.

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 population, and we 'assume' they are eve

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 useful even if you never plan to use t

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 announced P100 GPUs would be available soon; that will be int

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

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 actual benchmarks were done using the commercial ver

If this is true of Truffle salt, then I have definitely fell for it before. At least Wikipedia suggests truffle salt is not usually of synthetic origin ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truffle_salt )
