ybrson Show HN: Death Note – write a name WhoShallDie

i believe instead of GPL, you should be using BSD or similar more open licenses, so one can fork and create "who shall live", "who shall have sex with an alien" etc.

ybrson What does it take to run a web app with 5K – 10K users?

also i think one should take care of Reliability into account as well, if you have only one app server it will fail - maybe eventually - and you'll find yourself trying to ssh into the server at 2am, have at least a few app servers load balanced, have 2 db servers replicating with auto failover etc..

ybrson MySQL - Do Not Pass This Way Again

i read until the backup process and gave up reading through, for cold backups of online databases, you should use percona's extrabackup, its open source and free and works perfectly. http://www.percona.com/doc/percona-xtrabackup/ if you are using mysql a simple googling "hot backup mysql" will lead to that, i guess author didn't even bother to search.

besides, you need to use replication and connect a couple of slaves if you care about being online and backup from one of the slaves - which is a common practice for all databases not for mysql. if you are trying to dump from the master without slaves good luck with any database.
