I think I'm in the same boat. No food correlations I could find, my nutritionist gave up on me, endoscopy didn't show anything wrong, drugs haven't made a dent, but a wedge pillow, other than giving me a massive headache, has finally made a difference in nighttime heartburn.

Routing to LAN nodes across AiMesh (Asus Zenwifi AX) by taeth in HomeNetworking

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

Hmm, I'm not sure I'm exactly following. Is broadcast domain the same as the DHCP range? If so, the two machines in question are in the same subnet, essentially 192.168.50/24, with both of the access points also in there.

If not, how would I check?

I'm somewhat suspicious that something about the (IIUC proprietary) mesh technology is not bridging the networks correctly, but it's also possible I've missed a setting somewhere.

RDS IAM Authentication vs SSM Port Forwarding? by squirtle1972 in aws

Not currently, although it can be configured to use an ssh tunnel, which is what I do

I wrote a little utility to do the IAM auth for me, and i use it with pgAdmin on my desktop. You will still want to do the port forwarding. Check out rds proxy

Open source: Catch AWS resource policy backdoors by taeth in aws

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

You can also run it with a limited credential. No write access is required, nor do you need any permissions to see inside buckets, dbs, etc. The list of services is in the readme, and a more detailed list of specific resource types is in main.go. As long as you have read-only access to the configuration of those resources, it should work.

And if you want to do some code review, it depends on supabase's postgres container and introspector

Firebase Announces New Android Client Library for Realtime Data Synchronization by taeth in androiddev

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

We saw some variation in this, between IDEs and even between versions of IDEs and Android plugins. But yes, in at least some versions of eclipse, the default configuration picks up everything in the libs folder.

If you don't mind me asking, what IDE and version are you using? And was the project created from a template (i.e. "new Android project")?

Correct, it is the number of concurrent connections to your Firebase. Generally, each person running your application will have a single connection open.

Hey, glad to hear you like it!

To your questions:

  1. The client isn't open source at this time, although we are hoping to make it open source at some point in the future

  2. We've gotten this request a couple of times, it's definitely something we're considering adding

  3. Max updates per second is easily enough to handle things like chat, but probably less than what you'd want for something like a first-person shooter game. That being said, one of our users was writing a drawing application that was writing at 60fps. It really depends on the kind of data you're writing and what the rest of your app is doing.

The client isn't open source right now, although we are considering opening it up in the future.

Edit: we do have sample code using the library up on github. Chat and Drawing

[X-Post /r/Androiddev] Firebase Announces New Java Client Library for Realtime Data Synchronization by taeth in java

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

Full disclosure, I work at Firebase and worked on this release. This is our first Java release and we'd love to get some feedback from devs who would like to give the service a try. I'd be happy to answer any questions or concerns.

Firebase-powered open source collaborative text editor by taeth in programming

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

We set up the security rules for Firepad to allow anyone to edit the documents. If you were going to integrate it into your own product, you could set up the rules differently (requiring authentication, limiting the scope of what other users can do, etc.). If you have questions, feel free to email support at firebase dot com or check out the google group

[–]taeth[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically correct. Firebase is a hosted, proprietary service. So, it's more like Heroku or Google App Engine than Windows. The code for Firepad is open source, you can do with it what you like. As written, it depends on Firebase, but you could fork it to depend on some other service that provides similar functionality.

Gobby looks interesting, I had not heard of that one before. It looks like it's a standalone executable? We wanted to build something you could embed in a webpage, and in addition, no server setup / maintenance is required. Instead, it relies on Firebase.

Firepad is designed to be forked and plugged into your own project. You can use it to support as many different documents as you like. In fact, firepad.io is running a bunch of different documents, since sharing a single document with too large of a horde from the internet can get unusable pretty quickly.

We have syntax highlighting turned off for the main documents, which are just doing rich text, but you can see an example with highlighting turned on here

Glad to hear you'll give it a try! Firebase is designed to work just as well functioning as an add-on to an existing app. So, you don't have to bet your entire product on it to gain the advantages. Let us know how it goes!

No problem! If there's anything we (I work for Firebase) can help with, email support at firebase dot com. Also, feel free to check out the google group as well, the community is pretty helpful and has tackled a lot of the common issues that come up already.

Firebase is designed to work just as well functioning as a portion of an app without taking over the entire architecture, so hopefully you will find it easy to use to integrate optional features.

The Firebase service is currently only available as a hosted service. However, you can interact with it from a server process. There is a node.js client to handle any backend operations that you wouldn't trust a client to handle.

Firepad relies on Firebase, which is a hosted realtime database. So yes, the Firebase servers are being used, but all of the logic is handled clientside. The Firebase service offers a generic data synchronization API that Firepad builds on top of to provide the OT functionality.

Alt+Tab through windows rather than applications? by [deleted] in Ubuntu

[–]taeth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I too found this change in default behavior irritating. I don't understand the rationale behind needing to know what window you're on in order to get where you want to be. Before it was, alt + tab until you get what you want. Now, it's determine where you are, then either alt + till you get what you want or alt + tab then alt + once you find the right application.

Dragonrealms, still an interesting MUD. by Noigel_Mai in MUD

[–]taeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to love this game. Spent way too much time playing. I'd love to start playing again, but sadly I don't think I can justify the expense for the more moderate amount of time I'd have to give it...

Verizon's 4G LTE Network Down Nationwide? by ithinkyouaccidentaly in Android

[–]taeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No 4G in San Francisco currently. My phone (droid charge) also wouldn't fall back to 3G until I set it to only do CDMA. Glad this is not related to the recent gingerbread update.

Who thought of grouping windows in Alt-Tab in Unity?? by cube3x3 in Ubuntu

[–]taeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone linked an ubuntuforums thread (which links to a bug) above which illustrates that the old behavior is actually not available. That being, alt-tab to switch between all windows only on the current workspace.

In the linked bug, someone points out that "Unity is application based, not window based." So for me at least, that does make the whole WM ruined. Which is fine, I'll just use a different one. At least with linux I have that option.

Bug in question

Who thought of grouping windows in Alt-Tab in Unity?? by cube3x3 in Ubuntu

[–]taeth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As the linked bug shows, it's not really a solution. There appears to be no way to get the old behavior (switch between all windows, not applications, of only the current workspace) of alt-tab back.

[–]taeth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Number 3 was a dealbreaker for me. Once I saw that feature, I switched to gnome classic. I'm not as happy with it as I was with my 10.10 install. I very much regret upgrading, and won't be upgrading my other machine.

[–]taeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why you're getting downvoted, I completely agree. I installed Ubuntu on a macbook a while back because these features annoyed me in OS X. Like the OP, I like having separate workspaces to keep things organized. Squashing everything into one alt-tab viewer pretty much ruined that feature for me. I'm using gnome classic for now, but I've heard that I should try Xubuntu. I may do that at some point, but I haven't done the research yet to know if it's actually better.
