I Live in Amsterdam, and on this faithfull day I just looked out of the window to see if the weather was passable. So when I got on my bicycle and drove to the other end of town, everything looked more or less ok.
Ok, a tree fell on the spot i was just 6 seconds before, but all in all it was no big biggy (I've seen much worse). People weren't blown from their bikes, and no dogs where blown in the river.
Only when I arrived in the office did I found out that there was officially a 'code red', and that all my coworkers has decided to work from home. I still think people are overreacting.
We shouldn't defend him. We should spit him out, and say that he's a shame to the profession.
Everybody has had her/his fair share of mismanagement, but it's not up to us the determine what good or bad management is.
No matter how incompetent his supervisers are, it's not *his* network, nor has it ever been. If the administration screws up then it's up to the voters to punish them.
The right thing to do would be to hand over the passwd's and complain to the mayor / write a letter to a local newspaper, etc.
I would fire him. There is no excuse for what he did.
This guy willingly bypassed password management which is partly there to make sure that no person is indispensable.
What if he was hit by a car? This guy was more then irresponsible, he was malicieus (since he refused to hand over the passwd's).
I've used several nokia comunicators, symbian based phones, and several others, but the Nokia N900 is my best choice so far for my specific needs.
It's not as cool as a iPhone or as funky as a Android, but it gets the jobs done. It's a mini debian desktop system, which can also make phone call's.

I suspect they are useing a rolling hash to recognise and chomp up a message in several blocks.
They are then able to tag a block as spam, especially if people 'vote it down as spam'.
That is why you still see a lot of spam if you check your gmail all the time, but none if you only check it now and then (other people allready voted it away).
This also explains how their threading works, and how it is that they can offer so much space (in threads they only have to save the headers and the changes in the posts).

They couldn't stop the furnace because the last guy who used to operate it ran of with the control-panel is a more accurate description.

Yes, it was.
