Yesterdays penny arcade hit it on the nose. Osx IS more convenient. It IS worth changing your opinions and telling everybody that all that Mac trash talking was about OS9, but OSX radically altered the very fabric of the universe and that you now have to take it all back: the Mac is now a [...]
But its details are here: The macfuse google code project page And it looks like a good thing indeed! Being able to use the Linux fuse file systems on OSX will make for a wild ride, and really open a lot of doors Here are just a few Fuse based file systems: The S3InfiniDisk File [...]

http://www.openfount.com/blog/s3infidisk-for-ec2 This certainly looks very interesting! I cant help but wonder if the memory caching in the neterprise version is enough to run small MySQL instances on? At the very least being able to MySQLdump regularly to a file directly on S3 would be useful as opposed to mysqldump to a file, split it into [...]
