I run two types of clusters, one of them is a RAC 9i on Linux. Nothing and I mean nothing has the functionality of RAC 9i. You can put a bullet through one of the nodes right in the middle of a query being returned and still get your records just like nothing ever happened. The other database I run is a postgresql on redhat advanced server and the database files are sym linked into the san (this is high availability only) . If I had to do it again I would not use postgresql because it scales for shit and I cannot under any circumstances keep it up in a 24/7 configuration. The database needs to have vaccuum run on it once a day and I have to do that manually because half the time it fails. Running a vaccum on the database while clients are connected basically locks everyone tight until it is finished.
If you cannot spend any money and wish a fast, scalable and higly available system my advice is first sapdb and or mysql and advanced server on some sort of shared scsi.
Now all of you big postgresql advocates flame away but it does not change the facts. I love the database but if you need heavy lifting it just does not cut the mustard.
Ok I will bite, what federal law are you talking about. Are you talking about a descrimination lawsuit? Have you ever looked at hiring and descrimination laws?
A space craft has absolutely no need for wings. When you are in space they are just useless weight. In flight the are a vulnerable and complex system not needed for reentry. To get x amount of weight into space you have to burn x amount of fuel. Get over the fact that most of the vehicle is not reusable with any degree of reliability. Plant a capsule on a huge solid rocket booster and light the candle. It just does not have to get any harder than that.
Yea I don't understand OOP, get a life look me up on google and make that claim again. I work in the real world where development speed rules. For quick and dirty and just works PHP will smoke the pants off of both of those environments. Now leave me alone one of my linux boxes is trying to relay mail through a exchange server and suddenly exchange quit working today.
Oh you must mean a tool like VB for instance. Back in the real world, I watched all day yesterday as 2 consultants and 2 of our programmers burned the entire day because of a vb runtime error because of a shared component compatibility problem. The application was very trivial, sending text to a rs232 port. To do this in linux would require at most 10 lines of bash script. This was a text book example of the pain caused by a platform that has a lock on it.
J2EE development is slow and cumbersome and it is no suprise to me that.NET whatever that is beat the pants off of it for development efficiency. But considering that the.NET stuff will not run on anything other than windows it is a dead end road. Now do the same study using php against.NET and the tables get tipped drastically.
Damn that is just genius, I wish I could have thought of such a thing. Course I would opt to not even piss around with building something to do this when I could have saved the company a ton of money and development time and just downloaded htdig.
Just as the article suggests winged spacecraft is a terribly costly and inefficent design with none to little benefit to the mission. Consider the following points.
1. Winged spacecraft add too much weight. 2. Increased Vehicle Complexity 3. Huge Support Costs 4. Safetly Risk
Think about it why does the craft have to have wings. What is the matter with a capsule that can land in the ocean and be lifted aboard a aircraft carrier or be pulled back to port with a tug boat. Transport it to a factility and replace the tile bottom and stick it on another rocket for launch. Think about all of the flight control junk you do not need to carry. Hell just the stupid landing gear on the shuttle has got to be a huge weight penalty and for what?
Space travel and lifting things into space is a expensive proposition. A good hard look needs to be taken at the economics and the benefit of even placing a man into orbit when robotics can do a better job.
You forgot one, you can also lauch a virus more effectivly in windows. Linux is not windows and I hope it never becomes anyting like Windows. A Windows box cannot hold a candle to a Linux machine when it come to getting shit done.
You have to ask yourself what GUI toolkit do I use, QT, GTK, wxWindows, FLTK etc. Now because I like to have my apps run on anything I use wxPython which uses wxWindows as the GUI engine. Since python is portable an wxWindows is portable my application will run on linux, windows and yes even a POS MAC.
It is ok we understand that Microsoft has a powerful and mind altering marketing department. We cannot fault you for being weak against it's power. We will welcome you to our little community someday when your mind is freed from the collective.
In the mean time, you had better call Ripley's because that has got to be some kind of record for uptime for a Exchange server!
He should have had this virus download a copy of the linux kernel from the SCO web site and save it to the system. SCO would have loved this as they could have then sold a Unix Ware license to the entire world. Oh hell we could have even shown that SCO infact distributed the linux kernel to every PC in the world.
It is understandable you do not understand linux therefore you shy from it. Fear not young one we will teach you to understand the ways of the Linux jedi!
Hey I bet you are the guy, that keeps sending me all of those emails with the.pif attachments.

Bo ho ho, just use straight html none of the plugin stuff works worth a hoot anyhow.

Change the bounce messages to something like the following.

I was referring to replacing the whole program a few thousand lines that diced some text files as sent it to a display via rs232.

Hmm what is the name of this site again, could it be slashdot.?
I think you may have accidentally posted to slashdot when you really ment to post to your AOL buddies on the I LUV Windows list.

One clue dork , WINE!

Been having a blast with this one..

Hey I bet you are the guy, that keeps sending me all of those emails with the
Tell me about that TCO now!
Now add marketing expenses and other costs and you are now at a loss.
Now go back and look at your link they are barely over the production budget, this means a big loss.
Nuff said!
Microsoft.com is now running on linux...
