linc01n··on Ask HN: What's the most important piece of code you've written?
I worked in a advertising network company which is a major player of one city. I re-write the ad-serving algorithm to solve some of the problems. That piece of code is running 24/7 for 5+ years. If you are in that city and browsing the web. It will run through my code path.

I think Manta is better if the result set is smaller than input set. So network performance won't matter that much. And also a per second pricing is better since the author need the result in 10 seconds.

Spinning up a cluster of VMs and use 10 seconds and they charge you min. 1 hour seems expensive to me.

linc01n··on Ask HN: What hypervisor are you using?
SmartOS is a good choice. They provide KVM and joyent opensource their SmartDataCenter https://github.com/joyent/sdc

so you can provision VM with API.

They are developing for LXC which will give you better performance in the future.

I work in AdTech too. I'm still looking for a perfect counter solution. The counter we are using always overrun (which is better than up/down/up/down). We still manage to hack it by patching the number periodically.

p.s. I am working in an Ad Network but not plugging into exchange. Our system is not capable for that.

linc01n··on GitLab – Open Source Git Management Software
I am using Stash also. Love the new side-by-side diff. We switched from Gitlab to Stash few months ago. Mainly because Stash upgrade was way easier than Gitlab at that time.

There was an email sent by Textmate talking about plugin issue.

If you wish to use TextMate 1.x on OS X 10.9 then to fix bundle items that do not work with ruby 2.0 you will need to open the bundle >editor and change the first line of the command (called shebang) to the following:

#!/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/bin/ruby

For my case, I always see newrelic retarget ad. I need to check newrelic everyday for work. And after that every time I watch a youtube video it shows me a newrelic ad. I am already a Pro Annual user, I can't upgrade my plan anymore. They should not retarget current user.
