Most of the effort comes at the beginning during development of the process, formulations, facility. I always produced lower quantities, about 40kg per month or over 500 chocolate bars. I would work nights, weekends and…
Agreed! Tempering is a very tricky and rewarding skill as cacao butter can crystalize in multiple forms, each with its own properties (eg. shine, color, snap, stability). It is Polymprphic in nature…
This is a topic I studied and really love. After hacking my way into chocolate making, the results were extraordinary. I became a famous chocolate maker in Colombia, was portrayed in magazines and became somehow known…
Thanks for sharing Presentious. It sounds trivial, but producing lightweight presentations synced with audio is quite hard. I like how you can go ahead on audio or slides and then sync them back together.
As a long time user of Harvest, I have to say it is refreshing to see open source alternatives being developed. Harvest is expensive for moderate-sized teams but their support is very fast to respond and the user…
This is really interesting, specially if it really reduces the burden of running Mysql with failover or multiple slave databases. This is similar to what is currently available on AWS - RDS, but requires separate…
I agree with your points. It is indeed a viable, if somewhat clunky solution. For getting the data into S3, we found exponential improvements in using the AWS CLI, as I believe it handles uploads in a multi-threaded…
I believe it is to be released Summer 2015. I've applied for the Preview though.
S3fs filesystems are really slow. We tested around 10mb/s for file upload. Where it really struggles is when you have a lot of files in a folder. Try doing an 'ls' on a folder with hundreds of files to see it break.
I'd recommend a Noodler's Ahab ($23.66 on Amazon). What makes it fun is that the nib is flexible, allowing broader or thinner strokes depending on pressure. Plus, its a pen built to be hacked. After a while you can cut…
