@waloeiii Yes, EBS random seeks are better. In my bench: ~350 on ephemeral in raid 1(2)+0(2), ~415 on ephemeral in raid 0(4), ~615 on EBS
@klimpong we sync the data to other boxes in near realtime. which we would have done with EBS as well since you can't really trust either.

Note: $0 plan is as bad as $10 is good
@klimpong up to 350MB/s with 4 disks in raid 0. Consistently. But we went for 1+0 cause is halves the change of failure vs quadruples
@waloeiii with the right instance type you have 4 ephemeral drives. We run raid 1+0 over that giving a consistent 160MB/s vs inconsistent 30
Completed the @transloadit database migration. weeks of preparation. 4 minutes downtime. Tonight i'm watching a fight and drinking whisky :)

Week 16
Sun is shining. Lovely day to be outdoors. Bring me a cold drink and you got yourself a spot on this blanket ;) (@ Vondelpark w/ 9 others)
@dogmatic69 had 2-screen Ubuntu on Nvidia for 6y. No problems for 3. But can't debug 140chars at a time. Use ubuntuforums.org or kvz@php.net
@dogmatic69 don't know what distro but on Ubuntu it should be a breeze (I have 2 of those setups) Mail me at kvz@php.net if needed
@dogmatic69 true. But that's confirming open source was able to achieve the same thing (even better imho) as MS. Except without the funds
Still don't believe in the power of open source? @jonobacon compares his first linux desktop to his current: http://bit.ly/bU9WSJ :)
@jcoglan Nice job on JS.Class! You'll need to export public functions like: exports.sha1 = function (data) {}; I use a compiler for that
@phpjs is getting a ton of traffic. Looks like people found thx to @CommonJS, @mahemoff, @dalmaer http://twitter.com/#search?q=phpjs
@himynameissid mostly bugfixes. You can follow @System_Deamon to track progress or have a look at it's PEAR bugs page
@phpjs now supports @CommonJS compatible packaging of functions. By popular demand so feedback is welcome
Yes, the proper formatting would be Markdown RT @joebeeson: Is it weird that I write notes to myself with BBcode formatting?

The beauty of open source. Give: 1 function http://bit.ly/bAYI3d Receive: function in 4 more languages & the idea to filter: 'penis'
@KuraFire sounds good, Just give me a ping when you plan to be in the neighborhood. And don't forget to bring your iPad : )

@brettz9 Yes, a fun experiment. The client should set a header('x-mardown:1.0') or sth. Oh, 'flat' meant plain HTML: no add. logic involved
@brettz9 :) FF extension would reduce the availability of your site to a limited crowd.I think saving as flat html onchange is probably best

@mark_story no phpunit required for phpUnderControl. I hacked the core for compatible XML output once. But wasn't too happy with the results
@charli3 @predominant I'm already using #Capistrano to deploy #CakePHP projects and it works quite nicely. Should I do a writeup on this?
@simonw Karmic? Then you could try the new initctl scripts. They are a breeze to create http://bit.ly/4UlGUF
