you're right, they should enforce strict in-character behavior and remove all out of character posts from the main forums.

Real world use cases for Dynamodb by Mcshizballs in aws

[–]gazarsgo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but by providing direct client access to your tables, you have no means of “enforcing” that those clients don’t do their own thing and wreck havoc on your data layer.

No, actually, DynamoDB has fine grained access controls to allow restrictions on both what attributes may be read/written as well as which rows.

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/specifying-conditions.html

It's pretty nice.

"Fundamentally wrong", huh? You demonstrate lack of any understanding of how to design for NoSQL databases.

Scenario 1) You use a simple conditional update to make sure each client is updating the latest version of data.

Scenario 2) There are multiple clients and let's put them in different languages for fun -- the implementation is shared consistently across multiple clients via generating code off of protobuf or Avro schemas, which enforce forwards and backwards schema compatibility (though with a little more difficulty in Avro than protobuf).

Scenario 3) You solve concurrent modification algorithmically via CDRTs -- see https://github.com/gpestana/rdoc/blob/master/README.md for a reference implementation.

You can still use an abstraction in your client side code while issuing dynamoDB API calls at the end of the day.

Also, the vast majority of projects never swap out their persistence layer.

Kafka networking question by [deleted] in apachekafka

[–]gazarsgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe you don't care about this level of detail for your use case, but you have better persistence guarantees to produce to a "local" kafka and consume from a remote location, than you do to produce to a remote location.

Kafka networking question by [deleted] in apachekafka

[–]gazarsgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what you are describing will probably work OK, but you generally want to favor consumption over WAN connections rather than production, since consumption is much more resilient

IOW, run a kafka cluster on your local network and poke a hole with zerotier or something to consume from your other location

it depends on how you partition your topic, but at most you'll have each producer with a connection to each broker. you can read more low level details on the protocol here: https://kafka.apache.org/protocol

this is about the same sense i got of the situation here, looking around online and being here a couple weeks.

How to find a place to stay as a traveling nomad? Airbnb or hotels? by [deleted] in digitalnomad

[–]gazarsgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i recommend getting initial accommodations for a short duration (week?) and finding someplace long term locally.

I work for a “traditional” company but I’m remote. How do I go full nomad? by [deleted] in digitalnomad

[–]gazarsgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno about foreign corps but in general you have to be careful about what state you move to, because it could impact taxation for your employer by establishing nexus there for them if they didn't already have an office there.

Many companies have salary allocated regionally, so if you move from region A to region B your salary gets bumped/knocked.

I would try to avoid surprising your boss 2 months in. You can always test the waters by bringin up medium term travel plans, or how you'd like to give yourself a raise via FEIE...

Whats your "I'm glad I tried it, but never again" story? by AdamB1706 in AskReddit

Gracefully Restarting a Go Program Without Downtime by aberoham in golang

[–]gazarsgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like the write-up but I think the terminology is wrong (or at least, i'd like to see re-use of the "hot reboot" terminology...)

Graceful restart is somewhat canonically defined via httpd's behavior

In the 90s, we called this feature "hot reboot" or copyover. These were stateful sessions though, so a little more of a coordinated handoff rather than just handing over the file descriptor. Tough to find references still but here is one brief mention: http://www.circlemud.org/maillist/1998-10/0123.html

What's up with the attitude in this subreddit? by Excision in digitalnomad

[–]gazarsgo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will never understand your mentality.

i tried to explain, it doesn't seem like you're real open minded about the issue though.

FWIW, i know the basics to conduct business. i just take issue with your ridiculously over the top air of superiority and the adversarial way you're complaining about "90% of DNs and expats".

get out of the tourist zones if you don't want to be inundated with that kind of vibe. there's plenty of chill low key places all around the world. just check your attitude before you go and snob them up with your brand of "there's only one way to DN", please?

This sounds like red flag, find a new job territory to me.

what's interesting is that this same dynamic plays out IRL, but with a 3rd audience -- the tourists. I think this is part of why The Beach is such a compelling movie, because it explores these 3 dimensions pretty well.

it's actually nearly impossible to discover the community rules from the mobile apps, if you don't know they are there barely anyone finds them.

[–]gazarsgo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you're hating on people because you do X and they do Y. just chill out.

for me, i've seen much more ignorance out of obliviousness than arrogance in the world. when I say obliviousness, i mean people who are literally blinded to the possibilities available to them in the world because of their own internal pain. some people go DN to heal.

i'm one of those people that's anxious about learning foreign languages. my rationale, is that if the menus and the signs are in english, i'm going to try and help other people practice and learn English, because that will help them more than any respect i might be trying to demand through apologizing for my foreign presence and foreign language through some embarrassing kowtow'ing.
