Digital Ocean doesn't offer additional IPv4 adresses :(

Ask HN: Looking for cheap VPS at US westcoast

Hello community,I'm a developer from Germany and I'm looking for a reliable hosting service at the US west coast at a fair price. I don't need much CPU or RAM for my project, but at least 3 IPv4, 1GB RAM, >100GB traffic and a short route to Akamai. The price I have in mind should be below $20 / month, rather 10-15USD.I already found one hoster in Seattle offering a CentOS Linux container...

I totally agree with all the other answers. I'm working home office for about 2 years now and I also love it, but sometimes it's too easy to get distracted. When you find something that distracts you, remove it. Also, it helps a lot to shower and get dressed in the morning as if you were leaving the house. Don't work in a bathing robe ;)

My gf is working in shifts and hence sometimes she's here when I'm working and I have to remind her that I'm working, although I'm around.

Re:AudioQuest Diamond RJ/E Ethernet Cable: £6899 on Sunday February 08, 2015 @07:32AM (#9017086)
LOL, and I was wondering what kind of cable it was supposed to be, of course I know coat hangers but didn't get it in the context. Thank you! :)

I'm not a native english speaker, what are "coat hangers"?

This blog is hilarious :D Thank you!

I bet not even NASA would deploy such expensive cables on a spaceshuttle.

In Asia Facebook isn't that big, they also have other social services
Re:Elevator Saga – An elevator programming game on Friday January 23, 2015 @04:25AM (#8934032)
Thank you! Your suggestion makes sense indeed and works fine!
Re:Elevator Saga – An elevator programming game on Friday January 23, 2015 @03:55AM (#8933979)
Is it just me, or is programming more than one elevator buggy?

I used a for( var i =0;i < elevators.length;++i) statement to apply my code to each elevator, but people only keep using the last one. Could someone give me a hint? ;)

Re:Node.js and io.js – Very different in performance on Monday January 19, 2015 @08:33AM (#8911827)
Thanks for the details! It makes a lot of sense.

Now I wonder how node 0.11.x compares to iojs :)

Re:Marionette Explained: Connecting Data to Your Views on Wednesday December 10, 2014 @07:43AM (#8728853)
I've been using Marionette for about a year know for one project and in the past weeks I became a bit insecure if my decision was correct. It feels like Marionette is moving slowly, compared to other similar projects which have a bigger community. Is this a false impression? It's not that I'm missing any bigger features, but I'm afraid it might be discontinued sooner than other projects.
I'm a happy Dell Latitude user for about 4years know and I can't imagine to switch brand. The next-day-service (at least in Germany) is great, in case you experience any issues. I only had to use it once due to a mechanical problem with closing the lid. Apart from that, never had any real issues and the build quality is sufficient.
Thanks for sharing! I really enjoyed the video, though I didn't understand everything (english is not my mothertongue).
Would you mind to tell your readers what happened? Perhaps others can learn from it.
You should write a follow up: How HN brought my site down ;)

Hope you can fix this soon.

I liked Influx so much in my current project at work, I couldn't help it and even used it for a little html5 game to track some metrics of the game and server. http://www.mashed-games.com/stats.html
I'm glad I'm not the only one facing those challenges! Well, I'd be happy if you guys make it in mid January.
Oh that's great news! I've been using Influx for about a year know and I'm really happy with it already. Hopefully the upcoming version 0.9 with BoltDB will even better than the current storage engines. I'm also contributing to one of the drivers and most of the time it has been fun using it.

@Paul, are you still going to release a preview of 0.9 in december or is it delayed to celebrate the news? ;)

Re:How Google shut down our startup on Black Friday on Monday December 01, 2014 @12:21PM (#8682283)
The only reason I know for Google blocking content is, that the website is (was) infected with malware somwhere deep in the structure. This often happens to outdated Wordpress installs, especially after recent exploits. Blocking an executable however is new to me. I wonder what the real reason is.
Re:Show HN: Nettank – a little socket multiplayer game on Saturday November 15, 2014 @05:11PM (#8612798)
Thanks for the feedback. It works fine here in FireFox and even better in Chrome. I wonder why it didn't work for you.

Although I have a steady rate of visitors, most of them are usually alone at the moment. That's the reason I posted it here, but to be honest... there wasn't much of an Impact. :-|
