I just read it and like it very much, especially for its brevity and because it is on-point.
If you have experience with low level languages, pointers, memory and actually have some programming experience, then this is your book, especially because it is so up-to-date.
But I would not recommend it to someone, who has no experience and wants to learn C as a first language.
this is a similar solution for transfering files without storing. it requires both sender an receiver to be online at the same time. https://github.com/warner/magic-wormhole
To be honest, what I am most interested in, is how you got the people to actually care. So what exactly did you do for marketing? Did it just work, or how exactly did you achieve initial traction?
I have tried out loki, too. But I was not satisfied because you have to run an extra server for it. I have only a very small app so I was searching for a much simpler solution and found https://goaccess.io/ . The nice thing is that it is very flexible (you can pipe your logs in command line, but also run as a server) and if you are using standard tools like e.g. nginx or apache, the setup only takes an evening :)
It is always a question of complexity and how much time you want to spend :) At first I used Multitail to peek into server logs via ssh. Then I switched to GoAccess and if you really have a greater infrastructure I would maybe switch to Loki or ELK.
Hi HN, I am one of the creators of Turtle. There are many tools which are extremely useful for developers but it is sometimes hard to find them.
Usually they are shared between colleagues, you discover them on some insider blogs or they are shared in these huge lists of dev
resources.
We wanted to make this discovery/sharing process as easy as possible and create a place where you can easily collect them but also have
a stream, which is configurable based on your interests.
I think the hardest part is the design of nice images and graphics, if you are not a designer.
You can for example use this open-source collection of awesome svg illustrations. They are free of attribution and really good looking.

Thank you very much for your answer, and great project :)
I am also not very familiar with P2P, but I know that it is a bit complicated because of NATS. ICE is a protocol to make it possible for clients to establish a P2P connection, but it is not always possible because of symmetric NATS. Thus, for example in WebRTC there exist STUN and TURN servers.
How does this technically work? Is this a server which just tunnels through tcp traffic?
So does all data pass through your server or is it a rendezvous server, which uses ICE to establish a P2P connection?
Grafana Loki was the one I really tried out. To be honest, I had the impression that this is still a bit alpha. You can work around a few shortcomings by reading from loki as a prometheus endpoint, but I experienced a few things in the data which were strange, and I could not observe when double checking the logs.
While it is true that the server footprint of promtail for collecting and pushig logs is much smaller, you still have to setup your loki sever for data aggregation. I spent nearly a week on the setup of promtail, loki and grafana and wasn't quite satisfied with stability and the end result. Of course this could be due to my limited experience considering log query language, time series db, prometheus, ... But overall I had the impression that what they aim for is quite similar to an optimized ELK stack.
