Re:ULID – Sortable Unique Identifier on Friday January 06, 2023 @06:19PM (#34282782)
The initial version, released in 2010, was based on Apache Thrift and it predated Finagle, their building block for RPC services at Twitter. The Snowflake they're using internally is a full rewrite and heavily relies on existing infrastructure at Twitter to run.
Re:ULID – Sortable Unique Identifier on Friday January 06, 2023 @05:51PM (#34282502)
This reminds me a little bit of Twitter's snowflake: To generate the roughly-sorted 64 bit ids in an uncoordinated manner, we settled on a composition of: timestamp, worker number and sequence number.

Sequence numbers are per-thread and worker numbers are chosen at startup via zookeeper (though that’s overridable via a config file).

Ah, that makes so much more sense. I had thought after looking at the wallet: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/bc1qd2jkf8lxp5d3y50gf... that it was "scrambled/tumbled/anonymized" by the attacker.
Interesting... on 2022-12-13 the bounty has been claimed! Just a few hours after mprime1 shared the project in a comment on HackerNews, someone managed to drain the BTC.

I'd love to hear more about this.

I'd like regular meetings with one of Clubhouse’s founders and early access to special tools designed just for power users.

Re:Google cuts jobs at cloud-computing group on Saturday February 15, 2020 @07:47AM (#22334972)
For that reason alone it seems so silly to me that Google would make this change and cause this headline to occur. Hell like the poor folks rest and vest as the worse case.

Looks like the good folks over at the NSA are reading Hacker News. And fix issues quickly. I’m proud of them.

This seems pretty neat to me. I’ll definitely try it out.

Re:CoinLaunch – Launch your own cryptocurrency for free on Saturday October 14, 2017 @04:02AM (#15471235)
I like it. The Coin Creator seems to work well. Will be curious to see how it grows over time.
The total value of all cryptocurrencies has dropped 11 percent since Saturday, declining from a high of nearly $180 billion to under $160 billion today.
I did as well.
Arjan van de Ven (from Intel) can share more context.
I also think it's worth mentioning that Intel® Clear Containers now supports Docker as well.

Thanks @glibgil we want to make sure that the Kubernetes community continues to grow and blossoms.
Re:Borg: The Predecessor to Kubernetes on Thursday April 23, 2015 @04:49PM (#9429706)
I'm curious, @caniszczyk why would it need to become independant outside of Google? It's already an Apache licensed open-source project hosted on GitHub.

Disclosure: co-founder of Kismatic

I'm extremely pleased that Kubernetes has been open sourced by Google. It truly seems to me that the developer community is and will remain to be able to rally around Kubernetes as an open standard both today and in the future without fear of any outside agendas; as Brendan so eloquently stated. I for one applaud Google's level of transparency when it comes to the future of the project and the overall product vision.

Disclaimer: Mesosphere Advisor

I'm really excited about this announcement; as I feel that it gives people the the best of both worlds today. The ability to share the same hardware and use both systems in parallel should lead to some interesting new developments for sure.

Re:Red Hat OpenShift 3 design document on Sunday March 29, 2015 @12:52PM (#9285512)
I trust that RH has their reasons for such a large shift. So far they're doing amazing work contributing back to Kubernetes especially all the shepherding that Clayton Coleman is doing for the broader community. As the CEO of Kismatic I'm excited that more companies are jumping on the Kubernetes bandwagon.

I'm curious which of the Marathon bugs caused your downtime?
