Sorry, but no. If you want to charge me $700 for a device, I expect you to support it longer than two years.
Maybe if they charged an extra $1 per device, they'd have a few extra million dollars to keep a few full time employees keeping the software up to date.
He said "I can put family pictures in the Family SAN, and automatically everyone can access them". SAN is a block device shared over the network. It is a very specific type of network storage. If he meant a "file share", then he meant a NAS.
You wouldn't need to dedicate any bandwidth, just set it to low priority. I run several P2P programs that I seed and stuff 24/7. I just have my P2P ports traffic shaped down to just enough to maintain connections, while allowing P2P to use all of my free bandwidth. I will let P2P use right up to 96% of my bandwidth and as soon as my wife starts watching Netflix, Netflix will be allowed to burst, pushing P2P down into the single digits and quickly rebounding once the burst is over. All the while not affecting my pings at all, less than 1ms of jitter.
HFSC is like magic, once you figure out how to configure it. I also recommend having dedicated bandwidth, otherwise HFSC doesn't work very well, or at least setting it to traffic shape to your lowest expected bandwidth. If you have a connection that bounces between 50 and 25, then you target 25.
Put it in a BSD Jail, make the FS permissions read only and only give execute permissions to their program, and only allow their program to write to the FS.
A lot of people purchase computers with the option of upgrading from 500GB to 2TB for an extra $30. Then they install Office and a few games, leaving them with 1.5TB+ of free space sitting idle until they purchase a new computer a few years later.
My limited Community College experience was my University teacher complaining that the state wanted to make it easy for people with 2-year degrees to transfer credits to state Unis. In particular, a 2 year college wanted to be able to transfer "database" credits and let the students skip some entry level DB classes. The CC taught Excel and Access for their DB classes, and entry level classes at the Uni taught Set Theory, used MS-SQL and Oracle, and how to properly normalize tables, how indexes worked, how to use indexes properly, how to enforce relational integrity, how to setup minimalist permissions and use parameterized inputs and how to design a DB in a such a way to reduce the amount of damage or chance of a data breach.
It was like giving someone who could write DOS batch files credit for a OS Kernel design and implementation. My teacher said when he interviewed some of the students, they had a hard time writing basic select statements because they were used "making" select statements via the Access wizzard.
Businesses cannot be bothered with doing things correctly, only cheaply. They treat people as disposable and replaceable, they won't send anyone to school, that's a cost. In theory, I think you have a great argument, but in practice, businesses are greedy to the point of self-destruction.
Preaching to the choir. Poor people have more kids than not poor people. The kind of people you want to not have kids are the ones most likely to have kids. You can't stop that unless you start messing with human rights. The best way to stop people from having more children is proper education.
Uneducated is quite pathological. Uneducated people tend to have children that grow up to be uneducated. Poor and uneducated people can't help themselves, they need to be hand-held and it takes a few generations to get out a rut.
I'm not talking about Universities. Private elem/middle/high schools cost more than an out of state University tuition. College is cheap, paying a babysitter is expensive.
We have companies like Intel that spend a ton on R&D and are leaders, then we have some companies that spend money on R&D for patenting business methods, like how to communicate with your team.
Your results are much better. It was a while ago when I tested. I wonder if there was a transient issue going on, like maybe I so happened to try out the pool during the time NTPD amplification was just starting to get popular. NTPD pool would be a great target for "evil doers" to take advantage.
So.. Yeah... I may have to give the pool another shot.
Many web servers disable compression because it leaks data and has been a security threat for a while now. It has been mentioned before that IPSec implements compression, VPN implements compression, HTTP, and the files transferred over HTTP, like images. How many times does data need to be compressed? Once. We have too many layers recompression the same freaking data. Find a layer, do it all there.
HTTP1.1 pipelining requires responses to be returned in the same order the requests were made. This means all requests are dependent on the other and one long running response can block all other responses behind it. HTTP2.0 "fixes" this.
NAT is a crutch with no valid use case other than "I can't do it correctly, so I'll fudge the data flow". It's an evil required to handle the limits of IPv4, but is being abused for many other reasons; I can't wait for it to die in a holy fire.
NTP Pool is horrible. I tried using it, but my NTP client was reporting jitter in the tens of milliseconds(10ms-40ms). Instead, I hand picked a bunch of regional public NTP servers from places like Universities and government. I'm now getting reported jitter below 0.1ms. I don't care about latency, but jitter I can't stand. Some of my current servers are nearly 100ms of latency, but have sub 1ms jitter, while my ISP has sub-3ms latency but over 1ms of jitter.
When I trace routed several of the servers returned from the pool, they were getting latency and jitter spikes in their networks. Not even at the edge between the Internet backbone and their upstream provider, but between them and their provider.
There were even classes structured around the concept of "Test Anxiety Syndrome", again, something that, if you can't cope with taking tests, college is not for you.
All of my high end classes were project based, only general classes were test based. I had something like a 2.8 GPA, but that's because I would get Ds and Cs in my generals, but make up for it with As in my major. I eventually graduated with something like a 3.2 GPA, but that's because I took a lot of extra classes in my major. About 2x the required credits.
They're already placing requirements for colleges to be eligible for federal student loans, the college must meet certain post-graduation employment rates.
Not many people making $30k/year could afford to pay $10k/year per kid to educate their 2 children. I guess they could always resort to crime. If we had a highly regulated or at least competitive market, people could make a livable wage and could then send their children to private school. All we need to do is fix everything wrong with our market.

Quick, cut the Internet connection! Ok, restore the connection, drill is done.
Voting needs to be more convenient. Doing my taxes is less effort.

I like to think(assuming non-superconductive environments)
intelligence = amps
grit = volts
The real question is, what's intelligence?
I pay sales tax on my internet. Not a huge issue. As long as they don't start adding new specific taxes.

Most file systems are not meant to handle multi-master or even single-master-multi-reader.
My ISP is blocking SMTP and SMB, but everything else is wide open. You can request to have all ports opened.
