    I am MannDude. Ask me stuff.

    Why use IPB instead of writing your own forum software in C++/Java/Go like all hardcore web devs do?

    24khost hacked?

    Better not, I have 2 VPS and was about to order more before he got hacked. At some point I feel I should start seriously fishing for a host to work with. I can develop software; VPS-Panel/CMS/Forum/Ticket(skipping email and webhosting, will have API for that, not my areas, my real area is...

    My ioping is better than your DD

    I always develop my software to work as smoothly as possible with ~20ms IO lag so offsite storage is invisible. Throughput and CONSISTENCY(CONSISTENCY!) are my major concerns.

    Building a CDN?

    Making a simple file server CDN is pretty trivial; load balancing, file mirroring, receiving, usage monitoring. A week's work can make something quite powerful. Distributed databases on the other hand can be very challenging.

    24khost hacked?

        As someone who has made internal cms/vmcp from scratch for companies... it's really not that difficult, I find programming video games far more challenging. My background is microcontrollers for various things, remote automation, no scripty stuff, schools teaching scripting...

    Ubuntu Edge - Ubuntu Smartphone

    Holy hell an $830 phone, I think I'll stick to my $100 androids, the remaining $730 can get me a Pi and a nice computer or laptop. If it were $150 I'd definitely get it... maybe $200. I don't need a 4GB quadcore monster for my hand, it'd drain the battery real quick.

    24khost hacked?

    Last host I used was fedorait.net and he bailed, didn't like the work of a startup... a shame, I was going to work with him, he came back later inviting me to do the same thing, but I don't trust he'd stick to it now. - It's such a pain, I have the skills to be my own host, write all of the...

    Live chat

    I think some form of live chat is important, from manned IRC to private chats on the website. It doesn't really matter what, as long as there is something.

    24khost hacked?

    I'm a customer of 24k... I wonder who has my details now, would like some clarity on what happened... I wonder who used their CC. I assume jon is working on an in-house solution like he's doing with the vps control panel... but if you don't really know what you're doing that's still at risk.
