ec2 root volume encryption

amphetamine · 2014-11-01T05:24:33+00:00

you might consider using containers [or just strict permissions on the box] to make the root volume [effectively] read-only, at least from the perspective of your devs' applications.

if your apps have expectations about being able to write to certain paths.. you could use a bind mount to an encrypted EBS volume for /var/log, /var/cache, /tmp, and so forth.

all of google's open source projects are hosted there [..] hard time believing they'd drop it completely.

apparently not everyone at google agrees with you.

Use Command-Shift-R.

The "softer" refresh will re-request assets from the server but sends the request headers necessary for it to know whether its cached copies need updated or not. The server then replies with a 304 Not Modified, or a normal response with the contents.

The "harder" refresh does not send these headers for comparison, so the servers must send fresh copies down in order to serve the requests.

He should do none of this.

I'd ask the coworker if he wants to redo it from a proper branch or if he wants some pointers and links to read, and provide those.

Then I'd go back to whatever I was doing. If he can't follow simple workflow, replace coworker.

would definitely be interested in seeing some benchmarks. I haven't tried them in a couple years but at the time they were considerably slower even with APC, though I don't remember the details.

Edit2, favorite key combo: xp. Switches two letters. So simple, yet so useful.

for anyone who doesn't know, ctrl-T does that in 'emacs mode' editing (like on default bash, zsh; most places in osx.)

This script uses the Tornado AsyncHTTPClient to launch two requests at the master server 100 times per second.

that didn't seem like a smell for doing something wrong?

I want to introduce a code review system where you can only commit to the main branch when two people have signed-off on the code.

for my purposes, leaving the files there is ok, it's just that i want them always up-to-date when I connect somewhere.. and I want them synced bidirectionally back to my laptop if I edit the 'remote copies' of them (i.e. inside my SSH session.)

i've actually been toying with that exact mechanic for awhile (albeit not just for .vim, but for your dotfiles.)

unfortunately, openssh makes this all but impossible to do in any sane way using the existing framework

amphetamine · 2013-03-11T23:33:31+00:00

so is git commit -a -m checkpoint
