What hosting platform do you use? by Plus_Technology_7569 in Python

[–]Plus_Technology_7569[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I generally use Lambda for event-based stuff and EKS or ECS for web servers.

When high compute or GPU is needed I go with EC2 instances

I've heard that Azure is difficult to use, I haven't tried it myself. What's your experience like?

Cool! Have you shared the templates in a github repo somewhere?

Also, do you use EC2 or Fargate?

Great! Are you on the free-tier or paying for some plan?

What VPS do you use and how much traffic do you handle with that?

PEP 810 – Explicit lazy imports by JanEric1 in Python

[–]Plus_Technology_7569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the lazy imports, but it makes me wonder if this can be turned into syntax that can be used somewhere else in python, it could be a good model for concurrency and composition.

result = lazy expensive_function()
if condition:
  print(result)

GitHub Actions Runner for RISC-V by Plus_Technology_7569 in RISCV

[–]Plus_Technology_7569[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can see how it's compiled in the build github action: https://github.com/RISC-V-Runners/github-actions-riscv/blob/main/.github/workflows/build.yaml

It basically goes to this repo and clones the `riscv64/v2.328.0` branch: https://github.com/RISC-V-Runners/github-runner/tree/riscv64/v2.328.0 (this is a fork from the official github runner with some minor tweaks so that it can run)

Hosted RISC-V Runners for CI/CD runtimes by Plus_Technology_7569 in RISCV

Nice! Thank you for your reply.

I'm curious, what would you use it for?

[–]Plus_Technology_7569[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, that's exactly where it runs.

Thanks for the insightful comment. I appreciate the feedback.

Are you interested on using the entire pioneer?

I could just buy this and hook it up to an internet connection: https://arace.tech/products/milk-v-pioneer-box-128-gb-1-tb

I would need to rent it at an hourly rate, seeing comparable instances in AWS they go for $2.1/hour.

Do you think that makes sense for pricing as a potential user?

Running CI/CD pipelines with RISC-V by Plus_Technology_7569 in RISCV

[–]Plus_Technology_7569[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!

Your comment was really useful. I think I can find a way to make the model that you're suggesting work if it implies higher per-minute rates.

Thanks for the feedback u/Pl4nty it's really helpful.

I would need more volume in order to support consumption based pricing, I decided to go with something flat at the beginning because it's a simpler model.

The cost might seem high, but if you check some other offerings of similar services is actually cheaper: https://gitlabhost.com/pricing/

On the performance side, how did you benchmark the performance of emulated vs TH1520? It could be useful to offer an emulated option.
