Nikkau··on My Raspberry Pi WordPress server survived the front page of Hacker News
I know and every regular readers of HN knows, it's my point. Pi can serve statics, ok, we all already know it, what's the news?
Nikkau··on My Raspberry Pi WordPress server survived the front page of Hacker News
The title is wrong. Like you said in article, it's not a WordPress server but only a nginx serving static content.

Only 2 persons hit PHP on your Pi, you when you edit posts and the first visitor for cache generation.

Nikkau··on Cut average response time by three quarters using Redis
We have the same exact post each week.

Why not use existing redis-based solution like rack cache?

It's not really "auto-update" to me.

Nikkau··on Insanely simple Cloud-based replacement for statsd + graphite
The greatness of graphite is the ease of graphing thousands of stats in no time and without headache.

$1 per stats isn't prohibitive?

Congratulations, it's a nice demo of the fact that you understand nearly nothing at what you do!

Nikkau··on A Better Way to Manage CSS and JS (+ source code)
So on the fly you open tons of text files to glue them? Seems i/o intensive.

Why not do the same thing on deploy?

Nikkau··on React is a PHP port of NodeJs non-blocking I/O platform
It's useless for absolute perf but to compare 2 solutions doing the same job, it's a good start.
Nikkau··on Amon 0.9 - Fast, scalable async JSON logging with ZeroMQ
What's the point to show a graph where standart logging is faster?

Why use ZeroMQ if standart is faster?

Nikkau··on Why not render posts at publication time rather than request time?
Publication time or request time doesn't matters, Varnish is in front.

Nikkau··on Show HN: Free Unlimited Private File Sending (Beta)
"Sorry, you must run WireOver from inside the DMG it comes in."

Why?

Nikkau··on Show HN: Native Analytics (work in progress)
One big problem for me with server-side analytics : you can't use CDN (like CloudFlare).

Or nice caching.

Your setup need that requests hits PHP, but most requests hits Varnish on most setups.
