How Tarsnap Uses Amazon Web Services (2008)

I mostly use an M1 iPad Pro for personal use. I can get 90% of my personal work done on it, but not everything (e.g. I had to use my laptop for some tax filing work).

GitHub Codespaces works well enough to work on my blog but it’s not a replacement for the full dev environment I have on my laptop.

If you just had to pick one, I would go for the MacBook Air.

Yes, both for personal projects and at work. I write APIs in Go (and there's React on the UI side that talks to it). I use VS Code to develop and build as a Docker image.

At work the images are deployed on DC/OS, and for my personal projects I use Docker Compose.

The most difficult part (which isn't really that difficult) would probably be the actual deployment part, and that's not specific to Go.

Here’s the email I got from Tastyworks:

Apex Clearing, who acts as the custodian of all tastyworks accounts, has informed us that the following symbols (AMC, GME, & KOSS) will be set to closing only order status immediately. You will only be able to submit orders to close out any open positions that you have in these symbols.

New opening orders will not be accepted at this time. We will update our clients should the clearing firm lift the Closing Only status in the near future.

Great post! I started writing a Lisp interpreter in Go with the mal guide but switched to Norvig's (How to Write a (Lisp) Interpreter (in Python)) [0] since it was more approachable (IMO) as a Lisp beginner. I'm looking forward to writing a compiler next like the author.

Badger vs. RocksDB 7 years ago

> Badger provides better performance than RocksDB, both in terms of reads and writes.

It's not that simple. It's never that simple.

Yeah. The post that is linked[0] within that quote has a "Benchmarks" section, but it looks like they're either 100% reads or 100% writes. Most real workloads aren't like that.

Not sure why I'm getting downvoted. The characteristics sound exactly like Aurora.

- "replicates six copies of your data across three AWS Availability Zones (AZs)" [0]

- "Amazon DocumentDB uses a distributed, fault-tolerant, self-healing storage system that auto-scales up to 64 TB per database cluster." [0]

- "When writing to storage, Amazon DocumentDB only persists a write-ahead logs, and does not need to write full buffer page syncs." [1]
