<p>Right?! Get some free IP space from he.net tunnel broker and build your own IPv6 AnyCast network using Quagga for BGP.<p>Kidding about building your own AnyCast network (although you really could…), but he.net tunnel broker is GOAT.</p>

<p>It’s not virtualization, it’s namespaces. Docker makes use of Linux kernel features; started out with cgroups and now uses libcontainer. Each container is running in its own isolated(ish) namespace on the same host kernel.<p>It’s _very_ different technology than virtualization.<p>You don’t need docker to make a container on Linux (or Solaris for that matter).</p>

<p>Virtue signaling your dislike of music because of the environment it is played in is asinine.<p>Do you wish you’d never listened to Mozart? He was a serial misogynist after all.<p>I can understand parents not wanting their children to listen to music with explicit lyrics, but for an adult to feel this way?<p>Music is not decadent.</p>

<p>Why would you transcode on the NAS?
Not what I’m suggesting at all; perf on most NAS is awful for that…<p>There’s a pretty well understood concept of what a NAS is; this isn’t a complicated philosophical problem.<p>A very common workflow in motion picture production is to use NAS for storage on a fast network, mount the SMB share, have a script/tool/app that monitors the ingest directory and writes to an output dir.<p>FWIW the key differentiator between a NAS and other types of network storage is the protocols they use.<p>If files is the main primitive, it’s a NAS; it’s its blocks it’s considered a SAN.<p>Sometimes SANs have NAS “heads” for clients that want file access or a block level storage device.</p>

<p>Did you build your NAS in the 90’s or early 2000’s?<p>This has been available in Synology and QNAP devices for that long…<p>I used to own the tape library that is the Disney Vault. A common pattern for transcoding is to have a watched folder. Drop files you need transcoded in, get files you want in a diff directory when finished.</p>

<p>This is not true. You can easily measure TOF of a photon using an APD in Geiger mode or other detectors easily purchasable in 2024.<p>So what exactly are you talking about?</p>

<p>You typically don’t even have to go to that length. This is usually supported out of the box.<p>No idea what problem this is trying to solve. Just seems like the user wasn’t familiar enough with how to use a NAS.</p>

<p>Agreed this ask makes no sense to me.<p>It sounds like they want the system to somehow know which IP is supposed to be associated with a particular key.<p>You already can restrict public IPs using iptables…</p>

<p>The examples are pretty silly, especially the first one.<p>If you know that you need either a shipping or billing address and the user has specified which one they need, just query based on that.<p>There’s no need to introduce a function (getTableName) to detemplate a string or match on a case.<p>Instead just create a function that gets the item you want from the DB and has the table name as input.<p>On your UI make sure when the users specifies billing or shipping address the correct parameter is passed to the API.</p>
