That I can host my own server for. Let them keep the special sauce of balancing the data out on there end. Getting rather tied of closed cloud systems we need one api to rule them all:)
A 29 inch super wide with less vertical pixels and the same horizontal as my existing 3x2560x1600 30 inch screens. Every time I see these new super wide formats it just seems like a ploy to pump up the diagonal measurement. 16x10 is ok 4x3 fits better with my vision so I assume others but I got tired of running 3 sun 19 inchers.
Google docs I would give more leeway but that's an exception not the rule and contains no content (last I checked everything could be bought local as a file). Take something like facebook no useful thing that requires JS but hell the site still does not render correctly on a large monitor without outside "help".
Um if they are undocumented isn't it illegal to hire and thus pay them? What wrong with a check drawn on a local bank? I've worked in multiple buildings with credit unions these seems to be a great fit have an account with one and have not payed a fee in the 13 years I've had the account.
In an age when I can made a check deposit with my phone all these cards seem to be is a way to fleece the people that work for you.
Do they realize how much fiber is lit at gigabit and below? 10ge is hitting mainstream and 40 and 100 following on quickly. CWDM is dirt cheap and DWDM is getting there as well. Replacing all the long haul fiber is a non starter could be useful in 100ge short reach dropping it from 10 or 4 lanes to 2.
One the physical side 25gbps looks to be the plateau we are hitting 16 lanes gets 400ge ports.
Puppet has no agents on ports either the agent grabs the config file every x amount of time and uses pre shared crypto keys to cross validate. If your sending data up from your servers for centralized processing that's probably not something puppet or any other config management bit does.
So your info sec policy's allows your agent but not others? Allows a central server pushing out changes but not one that gets queried?
Config servers are the crown jewels of info sec no matter how they they work. Puppet gives you tripwire type function that also knows if it's a valid config change.
Work in the hosting industry and every time I see the worlds we really should not need much the first thing I always wonder is what is the site running. 1k users is not much but if it's some slow CMS or worse yet the we got a CS major intern to do it one off. The big thing that people do not get is a managed server is managed though the stock OS level your web sites code generally not included and often the web dev guys do not want to deal with servers bit so you have a gap. If your already on a decent box this could be as simple as a bit of tuning.
If your not paying significant amounts for just the maintenance do not expect them to do it as part of that maintenance. Far to often people think a couple hundred bucks extra of system maintenance buys them the equivalent of a full time senior sys admin. I'll give you a hit that's less than an hour of consulting rates for that sort of work.
I don't see any mention of a pico cell as part of them. Lost power and cell service power for 7 days not an issue backup generators kicked in no issue after 24 hours internet and cell service went down as there batteries quick and there were not enough generators to go around. AT&T had 4 boxes on 4 adjacent poles and a generator required for each. Comcast had a box but no generator less than a dozen poles up from there head end. As far as phone and data the move from central head end to stuff on poles has greatly reduced the reliability in a greater than 24 hour widespread outage. I'm a network engineer I know some of these must exist but the trend is to put anything you can in them to reduce requirements in the head end/CO data-center or pulling copper all the way out to new subdivisions..
The key issue with it is it demands that presidential broadcasts go through. I'm ok with a required default on. Tivo/Comcast implemented this badly at first weather a NWS alert for 2 states away would flip me to live tv and no allow me to ignore it, Asside for turning the tv off you had to watch it twice in English and Spanish all the way through before your device returned control to the owner. Now mind you since I used DPMS to turn the TV off this means that a test alert at 3am would pop the TV on to do so. Why can I not configure it to never give me Spanish should it not give whatever language the device UI is set for? Can we not setup priorities I don't care about flash floods heavy rain etc I have a window and can feel that sort of thing in my bones anyways.
Cordless phones as in land lines? Few people under 40 have a land line and if you really need something besides a cell phone why not connect to that same wifi?
Pretty much the only thing anybody run on it is oracle anyways. If your going to pay through the nose for support contracts you might as well have one place supporting the whole thing.to stop the finger pointing.
They assumed a rational congress we do not have one since corps became "people". One could argue the supreme court throwing out the time limit as going in excess of whats required to promote the progress of science and useful arts.
With a couple GB of data just put in ram you can get to 128GB cost effectively and if your read heavy you will end up with everything cached. If your writing just go all SSD it's night and day a single SSD pair easily outperforms a whole shelf of 15k drives.
PCIe based flash is nice have more than a few in production. The downside is hot swap pcie MB's are extremely expensive and getting more than 7 pcie slots is also nearly imposible. I can get 10 or more 2.5 hot swaps on a 1ru server. I can get hardware raid even redundancy with the right back planes. I can connect up external chassis via sas if I need more room (yea pcie expansion chassis exist as well they are funky to deal with at times). The use cases for needing extremely fast IO without redundancy exist but are s small subset.
Enterprise SSD's have been out for half a decade in production. I have roughly 300 Ent SSD's and more than a thousand consumer ones in servers and no failures. Retired many of the early ent SSD's well before they were pushing there write limits as we aged out servers (3-5 years service life). The consumer ones are acting as read cache for local and iscsi disk does wonders.
Nothing is saying they are using them at all, a ring topology expands easily and still only needs 2 ports for redundancy to the up link router(s). 10/40/100 48 port switches are not uncommon in data centers and infiniband has been pushing these speeds for years.
Juniper T and Cisco Nexus mostly. 100gb ports are really not that uncommon, sub 10k TOR switches can be had with 48 ports of 10ge and a few 40/100 uplinks. Gigabit has been a server standard since the end of the 90's 10ge nics are fairly cheap options at this point.
Turn off/down AC/Heat till calculated time it takes to reach desired temp before you arrive back home. Apps can help tie in gps tracking and calendar info for starters.
Same thing for blinds and other window treatments.
Start the kettle (coffee maker for those thus inclined) so that it ready at desired time.
Overall we need more standard API's on devices and less attempts to make smart ones. Would rather upgrade software/hardware on a single controlling device than all my appliances.

Doing sync well requires more than an encrypted shell.

Ram takes power to keep running an it's a nontrivial amount. Not a real issue on something plugged into the wall but hell on battery life.

Because url's could never specify where to go on a page and browsers always go back and refresh everything for giggles?

Same goes for flash or random extensions. Pretty much if you can not use you site with links it's broken.

Because if it were not for companies like cogent Verizon/AT&T would still be charging 200 a megabit and making it seem like a deal.

And the problem with a default on rather than can not be disabled??
