lessclue··on Client side caching in Redis 6
High throughput. Pooling is the default behaviour for many Redis clients too, isn't it? eg: https://github.com/gomodule/redigo
lessclue··on Client side caching in Redis 6
How will client libs that do connection pooling handle this? If a client opens a pool of 50 connections, will they be identified as 50 different clients, and receive 50 different pushes for invalidation? I guess the client libs will have to build a layer to balance caching on top of the pool.

Veronica could’ve just turned Airdrop off and moved on with her life.
lessclue··on Material Design Guidelines for Dark Mode
Homogenization is not limited to software UI design. Consumer electronics and appliances, retail fashion etc. are globally homogenized. That's just how the world works.
lessclue··on I'll pay you $15 to use my free software
You should really include some screenshots on the README of the UI. I'd give it a shot if I had a clear picture of what to expect.
lessclue··on Knoppix 8.5.0 Released
Whoa, haven’t heard that name in 15 years. Remember downloading an ISO over slow DSL at an Internet cafe to (of course) do a live boot and rescue files from a botched HD.
lessclue··on KeyDB: A Multithreaded Redis Fork
This is a nice project.

Hardcoding "aws" in the core seems like an odd choice though. Wouldn't it be better to make it agnostic and provide some sort of a trigger where a an external script or util to handle backups? That is, why S3 and why not any other service?

lessclue··on Redis Turns 10 – How it started with a single post on Hacker News
Redis was/is open source. The licensing thing was with Redis labs modules (plugins) for Redis.

Can you elaborate on that please?
lessclue··on Redis Turns 10 – How it started with a single post on Hacker News
Huh, what? Never heard of this DB replication "PC" nonsense before.
lessclue··on My Twitch Live Coding Setup
80% is thinking and figuring things out, 20% is writing code; always.
lessclue··on An update about Redis developments in 2019

How’s that good for the public?

UNIX sockets can help.
lessclue··on Whitespace killed an enterprise app
It's actually old.reddit.com but they probably have some sort of a wildcard rule.
lessclue··on Mozilla Fights On For Net Neutrality
What has speech to text got to do with net neutrality?
lessclue··on Japan's cyber-security minister has 'never used a computer'
Um, with things as technical as cyber security, yes.

Golden words. This is the cycle that keeps repeating in complex production systems.
lessclue··on PHP Graphic User Interface Library
That doesn't sound very crowded.
lessclue··on A Lengthy, Pedantic Review of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)
I’m of the same opinion. I thought Unity was alright and this new desktop is a great improvement.
lessclue··on Towards Battery-Free HD Video Streaming [video]
Incredible. Since it is analog and unencrypted, it’s wide open to attacks though, isn’t it?

Whoa, interesting. Does this differ from LetsEncrypt?
lessclue··on Ask HN: What software is so good you are surprised it is free?
No piece of software has surprised me like Redis has. The sheer elegance, performance, and reliability is mind boggling. Long live antirez!

Same here. Cloudfront was ridiculous. KeyCDN works great for us.

Wow, this is truly terrible. Those colors are godawful.
