(trilema) ben_vulpes: perhaps your "carpenter".
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: not i.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: "what could go wrong?!"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: as we say during deploys
(trilema) ben_vulpes: let's find out!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform would hold that "it doesn't work".
(trilema) ben_vulpes: an 0.5.3 that needs a kick in the ass a few times a day but can still catch up to chainhead trumps a power ranger hardfork with no published and serenissima-signed alternative.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: there are worse things in the world than restarting the thing occasionally while work proceeds.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: that said if it does - oh well.

(trilema) ben_vulpes: (almost needless to say that the vectoring needs to go in both directions)

(trilema) ben_vulpes: you can have a symmetric wing
(trilema) ben_vulpes: decimation: "diamond" << wave hands
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: vtol requires ducting thrust orthogonally to operating thrust vector
(trilema) ben_vulpes: thrust is now reversed
(trilema) ben_vulpes: decimation: not a "thrust reverser": flip the whole beast around its long axis
(trilema) ben_vulpes: with this kind of design it's trivial to turn end over end and stop extremely quickly.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: plus your main thrusters for "oomph"

(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: what doesn't work? resolution? speed? the whole not being a phased array and so incapable of reconstructing 3d?

(trilema) ben_vulpes: deploy pattern is "get code, load deps file into docker,rebuild image with that, if build fails bail, run image, smoke test new container, if new container fails bail, then shut down old container and shoop new container into its place"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: well, build containers for all persistent services (redis, postgres, mongo in your case).
(trilema) ben_vulpes: build pattern is: "install docker. then, deploy apptuation."
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mats_cd03: the sj deploy hairball is entirely bash with a squirt of python to marshal aws resources
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mongo ha oh boy the machine in question's what - 3 years old?

(trilema) ben_vulpes: "Currently, digital currencies lack the basic protections consumers have come to expect when transacting online.
