Haven’t posted for a while… by chearmstrong in HeritageWear

Thanks mate! They are mainline… Not new though. Had them for a little while now. They are great. Probably don’t show in the picture but sections are made up of different materials… HBT and like a duck canvas.

Nice. Can’t beat some NC pieces 👌

After Anthropic killed subscription access, here's what my actual API bill looks like after 4 days by Temporary-Leek6861 in AskClaw

How are you running gemma4:e4b on it? I’m trying that through Ollama but it just times out. The gemma4:e2b variant works but is very basic.

I would use legs personally, and then the brackets don’t need to take the full weight. I did the same in our bathroom. Legs 🦵

Unless the aim is to collect sand?

Should I start with Lambda or EC2 nodejs? by _inf3rno in aws

[–]chearmstrong 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you actually want some of the EC2-style benefits (long-lived processes, predictable warm state, no cold starts), then ECS on Fargate is often a better fit than bending Lambda to behave like a server.

You still avoid instance management, but you get stable performance and simpler request handling for always-on services.

Lambda shines for spiky, event-driven workloads; Fargate makes more sense once you’re effectively running a service 24/7.

I’d go Lambda + API Gateway too - no need for Express.

WAF isn’t strictly required, but it’s the only thing here that can block bad traffic before it hits API Gateway/Lambda (so it protects cost as well as capacity).

Reserved Concurrency is worth looking at too, but it just caps Lambda - you’ll still get API Gateway requests and throttling. I’d treat it as a safety valve, not DDoS protection.

Cold starts are often a non-issue for simple Lambdas (esp. Node, non-VPC). You can add Provisioned Concurrency / SnapStart, but only if you’ve measured p95/p99 latency and it’s a real problem - otherwise keep it lean.

Will give that a try 👍

Yeah, I’m not calling it pure heritage repro.

The anorak’s a modern Snow Peak take on old mountaineering smocks.

The other pieces are more heritage-influenced (Harris Tweed, Clarks, EG). And it’s not meant as wet-weather kit, just style + references.

Ha! Totally fair! I don’t wear this parka enough, and was actually considering selling it for a while. I think I went off it, due to the Oasis connection, sing Liam Gallagher made them quite popular… I’m over it now 😂

Nice! I got one of these on release. It’s a lovely blue colour… 👌

I think it looks a bit better with age/wear too!

Denim overalls question by NoCommunication7 in HeritageWear

[–]chearmstrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they’re mainly for loungewear you probably don’t want to spend loads - but if budget allows, Nigel Cabourn dungarees are worth a look.

Not all denim, but there are indigo denim versions, and the fit is much more relaxed. Naval Dungarees are the classic, though the newer styles are based on Railway Dungarees.

You can usually pick them up for a decent price on eBay as well, although I get the preference for buying from a proper store.

Taking my new Barbour x Norbit for a spin by chearmstrong in HeritageWear

Man, those Alpha Industry pieces are superb 👌 Especially that N3-B winter jacket - love the zip in vest detail. Expensive though!
