Joshua Allen’s Chokeville:
And he dubbed himself the Mayor, this skeletal, scarred kid of eighteen, and even though many tried to take the name from him over the years, using all manner of weaponry, none were successful in making the boy stay dead, and he is still the Mayor today, still impossibly young, overseeing two centuries of brother killing brother, stabbings, gougings, chokings, gunplay, boating accidents, infidelities, fires, one fire after another, well poisonings, trees crushing horses, detonations of every stripe, welts, hangings like you wouldn’t believe, kicking feet, fixed contests, rigged elections, car wrecks, overturned trucks, slaughtered cattle, men cleaned like fish, drownings, endless drownings, too many to count, suffocations, draggings, beatings, dislocated shoulders, a history of mayhem that we all feel ticking inside us as we walk this city’s streets, even as we hoist a child to our shoulders or kiss a girl on her neck, even as we think ourselves good and honest men.
Now that’s a sentence.
One of the things I really love about how we roll at work are server farms. I love that term, “server farm.” It’s very silly. All it means is several servers that are meant to work together. Just another way of thinking about computers. You could have one computer in Texas, another in New Jersey, and another in Ontario setup to be a server farm. It wouldn’t be very good (the distance between servers would make the performance poor), but it could easily be a fully functioning server farm.
The way we do server farms, however, is very different. We just use one server and call it a “farm.” That sounds even sillier. How can one computer be like four computers? Well, easy. You just have four computer’s worth of processors, four computer’s worth of disks, and four computer’s worth of memory in one physical case. You end up with one very beefy machine that you can optimize just like a many individual computers. Pretty cool.
Well, at least I think it’s cool.
BrewControl 1.0 is done and waiting final approval for the app store. It is one sexy app, but still a bit immature. Gotta refine just a couple points before I can be happy and move onto bigger additional features. I’ve got ideas, baby, I’ve got ideas.
My new project now seems to be trying to get the news out. It’s kinda interesting in that I actually enjoy telling folk about the app. It’s not hard or unnatural. This is what I was looking for.
Incidentally, you can follow @BrewControl on Twitter at http://twitter.com/BrewControl or visit the website at http://brewcontrolapp.com And I’ll have that link to the app store as soon as it’s available.
