[1424.28 --> 1427.26] And at the beginning of March, they announced they were shutting down. |
[1427.26 --> 1436.04] And I was beside myself, Alex, and I looked over to you, Alex, and I said, Alex, save us. |
[1436.36 --> 1438.42] This is clearly something we should self-host. |
[1439.48 --> 1443.32] Well, I think we might have found a solution in a project called Xbin. |
[1444.04 --> 1447.90] And this is over on GitHub at midnight slash Xbin. |
[1448.16 --> 1450.92] Midnight spelt with a one instead of an I. |
[1451.00 --> 1453.40] Just look in the show notes so that there'll be a link there for you. |
[1454.00 --> 1455.52] And this project is actually really interesting. |
[1455.86 --> 1461.16] It's a very simple interface, which is, you know, what Chris needs after a late night, let's be honest. |
[1461.74 --> 1461.84] Yeah. |
[1462.08 --> 1464.04] And it just, boom, pops right up, and there's a text field. |
[1464.12 --> 1465.24] You just paste the stuff in there. |
[1465.28 --> 1465.54] Pow! |
[1465.72 --> 1466.10] It's good. |
[1466.14 --> 1466.64] It's really quick. |
[1466.72 --> 1468.32] And I've actually been working with the developer. |
[1468.32 --> 1473.32] I've opened probably more issues than I should have on his GitHub, and he's been honestly fantastic. |
[1474.02 --> 1483.10] He's added, just for us, on our request, custom logo support, the ability to moderate comments, as well as a couple of other things as well. |
[1483.54 --> 1484.20] That's neat. |
[1484.66 --> 1484.90] Yeah. |
[1485.06 --> 1498.72] You know, sometimes you just love open source so much that some random guy who I will probably never meet in person is willing to put some time and effort in to help us adopt his thing by adding features that we ask for. |
[1498.76 --> 1500.08] It's just so cool. |
[1500.48 --> 1501.52] It really is great to see. |
[1501.52 --> 1504.42] It's actually so hard to overstate the point you just made. |
[1504.62 --> 1515.66] There is an internal tool that we use as a team to produce our shows, and you contact the developer or developers, and they're actually going to implement those features. |
[1515.82 --> 1519.68] Think about that in the context of, say, like subscription enterprise software. |
[1520.02 --> 1523.94] You could be paying thousands of dollars a year and not get that kind of service level. |
[1523.94 --> 1532.20] And it's MIT licensed, so it's a really permissible license, and I just think it's super wonderful to see it. |
[1532.40 --> 1534.30] Do we have a demo for folks so they can check it out? |
[1534.58 --> 1535.16] We do, yes. |
[1535.16 --> 1540.10] We're actually using it for all of our feedback for this episode, so at paste.docs.lol. |
[1540.30 --> 1542.40] That's now the Jupyter Broadcasting Pastebin. |
[1543.00 --> 1548.20] We're going to just use it for show notes and, well, not show notes, feedback into shows and stuff like that. |
[1548.24 --> 1551.92] So I think we're already using it on Coda, but you'll see it in other shows as we go forward. |
[1552.56 --> 1556.06] There is an actual official project demo linked in the show notes as well. |
[1556.06 --> 1560.60] It's really just a nice, easy-to-use Pastebin clone with some great features. |
[1561.08 --> 1568.18] It's written in Phoenix and Elixir, and I think one of the things that's appealing to us is it's pretty easy and straightforward to self-host it. |
[1568.38 --> 1570.14] Now, have you seen the stats page that it has? |
[1570.16 --> 1577.10] So if you go to URL of your instance slash stats, you can see how many public snippets have been made |
[1577.10 --> 1581.58] and the number of views they're getting, the most popular one, all that kind of stuff. |
[1581.68 --> 1584.86] I mean, kind of pointless, but also, who doesn't love a good graph, eh? |
[1584.86 --> 1591.24] If you want to see ours, you can go to paste.docs.lol, and then it's slash stats, like Alex said. |
[1591.72 --> 1593.56] So we've had 11 public snippets. |
[1593.84 --> 1598.54] I make most of mine public, so we've done, I guess, 11 emails on this thing so far. |
[1599.12 --> 1605.46] It's interesting that what qualifies as popular is eight people viewed one of them, which is really just us. |
[1605.54 --> 1606.76] It's just the people in JB. |
[1607.58 --> 1609.18] But, you know, it's great that it shows that. |
[1609.42 --> 1610.92] It runs in Docker, of course. |
[1611.12 --> 1613.58] I wouldn't honestly have looked at it if it didn't. |
[1613.58 --> 1615.74] I'm running it up on a Linode. |
[1615.90 --> 1621.30] I think it's up to about 15 containers, that single $5 Linode now. |
[1621.78 --> 1624.30] It's hard to overstate how awesome that is, really. |
[1624.50 --> 1624.60] Yeah. |
[1624.80 --> 1628.26] So please be nice to it and don't break it, because it's a tool we use for daily production. |
[1628.44 --> 1631.74] And we're opening the Komodo a little bit, telling you about it. |
[1631.74 --> 1643.22] And now in a feature that I think may well be aimed exclusively at Wes Payne, you can actually use Netcat to pipe text to Xbin. |
[1643.70 --> 1646.62] When I saw that, I was like, this is so for Wes. |
[1646.88 --> 1647.84] This is so great. |
[1647.90 --> 1649.62] But it's actually just a very quick way. |
[1649.62 --> 1657.28] And if you're already on the command line, the fact that you could Netcat something to your self-hosted Pastebin solution, that's a winning feature. |
[1657.64 --> 1658.22] I'm sorry. |
[1658.32 --> 1658.86] That's great. |
[1659.20 --> 1663.60] Now, I know we use HedgeDoc for all of our show notes and stuff and our internal collaboration. |
[1663.60 --> 1668.42] But Xbin also has a synced text mode. |
[1668.54 --> 1672.52] So, you know, if you click on in the UI, there's a button that says synced. |
[1673.00 --> 1682.36] It will give you a five-digit custom code in the URL you give to whoever you want to, you know, watch in real time what you're doing. |
[1682.84 --> 1684.66] You know, and I can just type away. |
[1684.78 --> 1691.66] And in real time, it will update whoever is looking at that URL, what I'm doing, which for like pair programming or something like that, |
[1691.66 --> 1693.68] I can see this being absolutely awesome. |
[1696.08 --> 1698.44] ProvadoVPN.com slash SSH. |
[1698.50 --> 1702.16] P-R-V-A-D-O-V-P-N.com slash SSH. |
[1702.22 --> 1705.58] Go there and try out Provado for free and support the show. |
[1706.06 --> 1708.66] ProvadoVPN is a zero log VPN. |
[1708.66 --> 1713.16] That means no records of your online activity are logged when connected to ProvadoVPN. |
[1713.92 --> 1718.64] Even in the event of a legitimate authority request for logs associated with your activity when connected to the service, |
[1718.78 --> 1720.36] there's just nothing to give. |
[1720.36 --> 1725.20] And if that wasn't good enough, you can rest comfortable knowing they're protected by Swiss privacy laws. |
[1725.62 --> 1728.66] They have a strict zero log policy and they're based in Switzerland. |
[1728.90 --> 1730.04] That really mattered to us. |
[1730.10 --> 1733.26] And that's why we picked ProvadoVPN for our sponsor. |
[1733.68 --> 1737.88] It means you're protected by the absolute strongest consumer privacy laws in the world. |
[1738.18 --> 1741.40] And they have a fantastic network to back it all up. |
[1741.60 --> 1745.08] ProvadoVPN owns and operates its own data centers and fiber lines. |
[1745.08 --> 1751.70] And the network is composed of hundreds of servers physically located in 45 countries and 58 cities around the world. |
[1752.10 --> 1753.50] You can connect anywhere in seconds. |
[1753.58 --> 1757.68] And no matter what server you choose, you'll get incredibly fast speeds every time you connect. |
[1758.10 --> 1763.68] ProvadoVPN's network was built from the ground up, fully optimized for lightning fast speeds. |
[1763.68 --> 1768.46] So visit provadovpn.com slash SSH and try it out for free. |
[1768.46 --> 1798.44] ProvadoVPN.com slash SSH. |
[1798.46 --> 1802.82] We've got some feedback from Kevin in Belgium. |
[1803.46 --> 1804.56] Love the show, guys. |
[1804.72 --> 1805.22] Keep it up. |
[1805.48 --> 1809.14] In the last episode, there was some talk about pooling different bits of storage over the network. |
[1809.76 --> 1812.88] In the past, I've used Greyhole to do this. |
[1813.06 --> 1817.80] I was able to pool two different machines into one virtual storage presented via Samba. |
[1818.06 --> 1818.46] Brackets. |
[1818.72 --> 1819.78] Yes, I know. |
[1819.78 --> 1833.16] It worked for me for many years until I switched to one new machine pooling all drives using MergerFS using the, I don't wish to blow my own trumpet here, but the now famous perfect media server guide. |
[1834.84 --> 1836.30] Yeah, it is. |
[1836.58 --> 1837.40] People love that. |
