dieters··on Gandi.net – Pricing Update
I love Porkbun too. I don't generally praise companies online, but their prices and UX are just so good and effortless...
dieters··on Benchmark results: Cassandra 4.0, 3.11, Scylla 4.4 [video]
Yup, and redpanda happens to use Scylla's Seastar framework as well
dieters··on Using a disk-based Redis clone to reduce AWS S3 bill
Scylla also exposes Redis API, disk-based as well: https://scylla.docs.scylladb.com/master/design-notes/redis.h... . With a good NVMe disk the latency is still expected to be good enough for most workloads.
dieters··on OpenSearch: AWS fork of Elasticsearch and Kibana
There are also ways out of vendor lock-in. Alternator comes to mind as a way of migrating DynamoDB workloads out to other cloud vendors or your own servers: https://docs.scylladb.com/using-scylla/alternator/
dieters··on My tutorial and take on C++20 coroutines
There's none in the standard library, but e.g. Seastar already has coroutine support implemented for its future<>s and it works really well - the code looks clearer and in many cases it reduces the number of allocations to 1 (for the whole coroutine frame).
dieters··on I Don't Date on LinkedIn
HN ate my asterisks. I meant I can only have a certificate for [anything].idont.date, but not for more subdomain levels.

That's because I'm not allowed to have a generic certificate for ..domain :( (author here). I'm also a C++ programmer for a living, and this was originally just a home project for trying to self-learn how publishing pages work.
