Help me ensure the future of Bas on Tech. Your donation will be used for hosting, videos and maintenance, among other things.
Thank you in advance!
Are you thinking about for a project, or were you more interested in the technical side of how cloud storage works?
Leo paused, his cursor hovering over the "Create" button. This was the moment of commitment. Up until now, Aetheria was just a dream on a local drive. By clicking this, he was tethering his bank account to a nervous system of fiber optics and silicon. Click.
Next came the specifications. He bypassed the basic "Standard" instances. Aetheria required memory-optimized machines. He clicked through the menus, selecting high-performance SSDs and a staggering amount of RAM. With every click, he could almost feel the weight of his project shifting from his cramped desk to a high-security data center miles away, cooled by industrial chillers and protected by layers of encryption. The final step: buy server space from google
Leo leaned back, watching the traffic metrics spike. For the first time in weeks, his room went silent as his local computer’s fans finally wound down. His project was no longer trapped in his apartment. It was living in the same architecture that powered the world's knowledge.
For a few minutes, Leo held his breath. Then, the status light turned a steady, calm green. He opened his terminal and typed the command to migrate his data. Are you thinking about for a project, or
Leo sat in his dimly lit apartment, the glow of three monitors illuminating a face that hadn't seen direct sunlight in forty-eight hours. He was a solo developer on the verge of launching Aetheria , an ambitious open-world simulation that promised to track the "soul" of every NPC in real-time.
Local hosting was no longer an option. His personal rig was screaming, the cooling fans sounding like a jet engine prepping for takeoff. To bring Aetheria to life, he needed more than a bigger hard drive; he needed a slice of the infinite. He navigated to the . Up until now, Aetheria was just a dream on a local drive
He selected his region: us-central1 (Iowa) . He liked the idea of his world living in the quiet heart of the Midwest.
My name is Bas van Dijk, entrepreneur, software developer and maker. With Bas on Tech I share video tutorials with a wide variety of tech subjects i.e. Arduino and 3D printing.
Years ago, I bought my first Arduino with one goal: show text on an LCD as soon as possible. It took me many Google searches and digging through various resources, but I finally managed to make it work. I was over the moon by something as simple as an LCD with some text.
With Bas on Tech I want to share my knowledge so others can experience this happiness as well. I've chosen to make short, yet powerful YouTube videos with a the same structure and one subject per video. Each video is accompanied by the source code and a shopping list.
