Anyone know a good cafe to work from in Nob Hill/SF that has air conditioning? It's going to be a warm one today.
Tips to Write a Good Bug Report
A good blog post that covers do’s and don’ts on how to write a bug report that will detail the bug properly and make it easier for the developers to get it fixed.
Disclaimer: This is a theory, I haven’t tried this out (anyone at EdgeCast want to confirm/give me a free account to try it out? 🙂 )
I was looking at ways to store large volumes of user-uploaded resources (images) in a web environment tonight and had a bit of an epiphany. I had defaulted to Amazon’s S3 web service as the storage platform, since I’ve worked with it before and love the idea of an “unlimited”, fully-redundant storage device. The main problem with S3 however, is that it’s got less than stellar performance as far as latency and geographically-optimized delivery. That, and the bandwidth is relatively expensive.
So — what happens if you combine S3 with a Content Delivery Network of some sort? (more…)
IDEA: Static rsrcs on Amazon S3, accessed via s3.dom.com. Proxying CDN (EdgeCast) via cdn.dom.com->s3.dom.com. Redundancy + performance?

Slow start to the day… making some "breakfast".
Huntington Park SF is beautiful in the morning, even with noisy traffic. Cnr California + Taylor.
I almost made it outside the house to go for a walk before 9am. Not bad. Feeling awake!
Watching some Family Guy and having dinner. It's been too long. This show is incredible.
Playing around with a new server cluster, synching files and fixing permissions and whatnot. FUN!
