Best presentation of the last 10 years of my career. Spot on!

Desktop and server pages are now pointing to 14.04 as well:

amd64 images use BIOS or UEFI. Macs use a variant of EFI (an earlier version of what's now called UEFI), they apparently can't cope with multi-catalog CDs and the MAC variant images fix this.

Amsterdam, The Netherlands is now serving the latest release.

Not all data center serve the latest page yet.

I based mine on some else his blog as well and open sourced mine as well in hope others benefit from it. I am glad to see most jekyll/middleman/octopress users open source their blog. Without it, mine wouldn't look as good as it does. What I have added is a way to turn jekyll a bit more into a CMS by automating the generation and deployment: http://born2code.net/blog/2013/05/27/simplify-your-jekyll-pu...

Jekyll, hosted on AmazonS3 and auto deployed by wercker: http://born2code.net/blog/2013/05/27/simplify-your-jekyll-pu...

Sounds like a great plan to me! Will we keep this one on HN, or create a meetup page for it?

We are located at the Lauriergracht 116, Amsterdam and should be able to provide room for 25 hackers :)

You are welcome at the wercker office! I am sure I can arrange some beer and pizza.

Indeed, interesting to known why. The domain came online at May 2, 1991.

My takeaway is, that the reason that this is possible is that they care about data structure. A language can give you an order of magnitude performance, but - according to Ville - you can almost get infinitive improvement if you rethink the algorithms and data structure.

If you like to play with Docker on wercker, you can apply for the Docker beta: http://wercker.com/docker/

That is an interesting point. Microsoft has now became a direct competitor of Samsung and others on the Windows Phone marked.

I like the detailed number it now has

This is an interesting scenario. I've resolved this by running the entire build pipeline on wercker and only deploy the binary on Heroku by using the null buildpack. I'll write up a post on this in the coming days.

I also spiked leveraging caching on wercker to improve build time: http://born2code.net/blog/2013/07/26/improving-Go-build-time...

The site seems to be down after it got trending on Google Plus.

I totally agree that Go is a pretty awful name, especially if you consider that it came out of worlds largest search company.

After questions like "Why is Go doing so poorly in the Tiobe index?" it seems it now moved from place 42 to 26.

Here I've written a related post on how I automated the delivery to Amazon S3: http://born2code.net/blog/2013/05/27/simplify-your-jekyll-pu...
