@vertigo it’s encouraging to see I’m not the only person who thinks something like this would be useful. It will be very interesting to see how their campaign goes.

I’ve been proposing something like that for a long time and my project was on a similar trajectory until sometime last year when I saw another company reveal a similar cluster at SC17.

That confirmed for me the demand for the work, and also that I had to take it further. 1/2

@bb010g I will check that out, thanks!

New post about my first attempt at the software-side of #rain-psc 's front panel:

@cobra2 @gemlog we use mongodb at work, it’s fine but as a former “enterprise” DBA, I’m not a fan.

I think the reason people use it (and it’s kin) is that they think it gets them out of designing their database properly.

Either be an RDBMS or a fast, flexible, key-value store; anything in-between is just a bad compromise. 😇

@cobra2 @gemlog it’s in the queue :)

Initial thoughs on what #PINE64's Clusterboard might mean to #rainpsc

(thanks for the heads-up @ekaitz_zarraga )

This is my new mantra:

"Don't be surprised when the future shows up on your step to kick your goddamned ass."

@h thanks for the encouragement :)

This is how the Internet is supposed to work after all...

@vertigo @bob @nightpool @cj

@h I probably have to "approve" it and I broke my phone which has the app I usually do that with :)

I will check that out. I'm slowly looking into how Mozilla's engine works and how I might make it work across a cluster (as opposed to a multi-core processor).

Assuming that PINE64 cluster board works out, I should be able to dive a lot deeper into the software side much sooner than expected.

@clacke Thank-you!

I have a repository but it's mostly a dumping ground for design files and misc notes:

https://gitlab.com/jgullickson/raiden

(also it needs to be renamed :))

Right now the bulk of the documentation is on my blog but once I have a running prototype I'm planning to put together some more organized/concise documentation and build instructions.

That post I promised about #webassembly and #rainpsc

@h @vertigo @vfrmedia In my experience the Raspi community has been top-notch. My guess is that has something to do with the non-commercial orientation they have (most of the assholes I've met are in it for the money :) )

@vertigo @h I still need to invest more than 10 minutes checking-out #peertube

Once we have a critical mass of members we can pick a convention center equidistant between all of us, that should make the location interesting :)

@vertigo @h I guess the best thing to do is cultivate a community around RISC-V that isn't filled with assholes.

We can have our own conference :)
