2017玩过的游戏回顾
过去的这一年似乎玩了很多游戏，不过也坑了很多。年中的时候买了Nintendo Swtich，相比去年买了更多的铁盒。但是总的来说由于工作的缘故，玩游戏的时间比去年少多了。
2016玩过的游戏回顾
回首这一年，从一个学生变成了社会人，打了很多游戏，去了好些地方，重新相识了几个人。不得不说PS4是我买过最值的电子产品，给我带来了过千小时的欢乐。限于财力，我买游戏可以说是十分谨慎，只有确定真的想要了，才会下手。不过即使是这样，还是有一些游戏不可避免的坑掉了。这里只想自我总结一下2016年玩过的主机游戏，按照时间顺序，自年初至年末。
上班三周杂记
回到美国已经一个月，上班也三个礼拜了，感觉还是和实习很不一样。且不说企业文化上的不同，仅仅是来自于环境的压力就远大于实习时。
还记得去年夏天在HPE实习的时候，总共十二周的时间，做的项目是关于HDFS的一个小特性。时间上大概2周用于Onboarding，4周设计及做原型，4周实现，剩余时间根据内部反馈进行改进。总体来说节奏还算紧凑，但最重要的是有个导师罩着你，很大程度上能稀释你的压力。而且作为实习生，犯蠢也就犯了，导师总是宽容的，不会责备什么。组里还有两个实习生，也是CMU的，每天大家一起开开心心就过去了。这个阶段的压力主要来源于项目，想要以自己有限的能力把它做好，心里一直催着自己。虽然最后临走前一周发现设计上不是最优，并不能100%满足设想的需求，但限于精力与时间，也就只能放在那边了。
Site Migrated to Jekyll
Finally I migrated from Wordpress to Jekyll. The main reason is performance and security. And the site is now hosted on Github pages, this saves me both money and time. I really don’t like wasting time in tuning MYSQL or Apache due to the limited resource on DigitalOcean droplet(I chose the cheapest one).
Although the site looks primitive now, I’m not sure I will improve it. Front-end stuff is not interesting for me and current one is just acceptable.
For migration process, I’ve done following things:
- Export all posts in Wordpress by plugin.
- Set up Jekyll site locally and import all posts.
- Fix format and image issues in imported posts.
- Migrate comments in Disqus.
- Deploy the site to Github pages.
Under XML-RPC attack recently
The site is being down frequently in recent two months. At first I was too lazy to fix it, so I received tons of alert emails from NewRelic which is quite annoying. From NewRelic analysis page, the site was having too much traffic with POST request to xml-rpc.php file and then my database eat up all memory. As a result, site went down. This is a typical wordpress xml-rpc attack.
With the help of this article, I’ve done the modification to my configuration files. Hopefully the site is more robust from now on.
