PiWeek VIII

July 18, 2015

While writing this post all the content was deleted because of a hardware problem and sadly this is less that I wrote originally. :(

This week have been awesome. After two years I finally went back to the Personal Innovation Week for a second time, and as motivated as it were, I’m planning to repeat at the end of the year. For those who don’t know what a ΠWEEK is, its site explains it very well:_ ΠWEEK /paɪ wiːk/ is an original idea by Kaleidos and it consists in allowing employees from participant technology companies to leave their ongoing work in standby and dedicate an entire week to personal projects. The plan is to enjoy a ΠWEEK every six months, particularly in December and July, and allow employees to play and innovate_.

Amazon EC2: No space left on device

May 4, 2015

So a funny thing happened today at out pre-production environment. I was performing our pre-big-PR deployment when a beautiful error was shown in my terminal:

1
cannot create X: No space left on device

What?! How could that be possible. I know that our environment don’t have a lot of bytes for us to play with but having the storage already full with our database and other services outside this machine just wasn’t possible. And I was right.

Reading data from iOS backups: Manifest.mbdb

November 29, 2013

The Manifest.mbdb is a binary file that contains records for the hashed files that the backup includes, the hashed files can be anything that a certain application requires or saved, from a image thumbnail to a sqlite3 database file.

Reading the file can be tricky, since the record itself have a variable length, so you can just split the file based on a delimiter, you need to read it byte to byte. I'm going to expose here the data structures this file contains:
