As Tom's Guide reported, Bezos explained in a New York Times interview how the era of everyone having their own PC is coming to an end. "This is what computation is like today; everyone has their own data center," Bezos said. "That's not going to last. It makes no sense. You're going to buy compute off the grid."

The Future is NOT Self-Hosted

Tue, 05 Aug 2025 16:20:19 +0000

My wife and I now have a computer in our house that runs open-source equivalents to Google Drive, Google Photos, Audible, Kindle, and Netflix. It syncs to all of our devices. It's secured behind our own VPN. And it's wholly, truly owned by us. And this week, I want to share with you how I did it, what I learned, and why I think self-hosting is NOT the future we should be fighting for.

progrium / gitreceive

Thu, 23 May 2013 22:18:09 +0000

Creates an ssh+git user that creates repositories on the fly and lets you run scripts or hit HTTP endpoints when you push code. Build your own Heroku. Push code anywhere. It's just not a post-receive hook. It's a powerful wrapper around pre-receive giving you easy access to the code that was pushed while still being able to send output back to the git user.

M/M/c queue - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wed, 22 May 2013 23:27:34 +0000

In queueing theory, the M/M/c queue is a multi-server queueing model.[1] In Kendall's notation it describes a system where arrivals form a single queue and are governed by a Poisson process, there are c servers and job service times are exponentially distributed.[2] It is a generalisation of the M/M/1 queue which considers only a single server. The model with infinitely many servers is the M/M/∞ queue.
