Comment on Story: Redis and its creator antirezparent

Comments

@antirez,

First off, I work in the web hosting industry- WordPress specifically- and Redis is used along with https://objectcache.pro and https://relay.so/ to make WordPress faster. Thank you for that.

Second, I just read the first chapter of WOHPE on Amazon. Wow. I have wanted to write Hard SciFi for a long time, but I've realized that I'm just not a fiction writer. You on the other hand are, sir. I'm going to see if I can get a print-on-demand version of the book.

And for others here:

https://www.amazon.com/Wohpe-English-Rimmel-Salvatore-Sanfil...

Read the first chapter. Then buy the book. Seriously.

Thank you so much, both for using Redis and for trying reading Wohpe.

I never saw a sample of the print on demand version of the English translation of Wohpe. I hope they print it properly. With the Italian version, we tried hard to provide a physical book that was of high quality, but shipping to US was impossibile from Italy.

Is it possible to get an English ebook or print version that isn't through Amazon? I loved the sample.

Unfortunately we printed only the Italian version :( Sorry. It very impractical to print the English version from italy and sell it from here, and finding an US publisher was out of my abilities: I've zero contacts.

Even an ebook in English that's not Amazon/Kindle would be great. I'm happy to pay for an epub or other format.

It should be available here, if you don't want Kindle. This will just let you download a DRM-free ePub file: https://www.ibs.it/wohpe-ebook-inglese-salvatore-sanfilippo/...

Otherwise drop me an email at antirez - gmail dot com if you have troubles finding it.

After Amazon refused to sell it to me for unspecified region reasons, I bought it from IBS. Thanks for making it available from a non-monopolist!

Thank you. That link is perfect :)

What host do you work for?
