I'll bet they both run the same CMS...just with some per-company tweaks. Even though I work at HP, I have no idea what kind of CMS our support site is running...if there even is a "single product" at all!
HPSC is Hewlett Packard Support Center. The URL is "gibberish" because it's an auto-generated page. We don't write static pages for products anymore...most companies haven't for years. Thus the "template" in there...our system pulls various info from all over (drivers, manuals, etc) and presents these pages. finding documentation is easy, there's a "Search" on almost every page. Sorry that it's not in a human-comprehensible URL format...
Too bad it put this at 0 as an AC...good info there. I actually work at HP, in the Enterprise Services. It's almost mind-boggling how many VM's we run...for a single client, on a single blade rack, there is over 1,200 VMs running. Redhat, MS, Oracle's UVS, whatever might else be out there...I'd bet that in any single data center there's probably 100,000+ VM's running.
We use f5 load balancers, auto-starting ESX clusters...if a VM goes down it just moves over to a backup VM and alerts us; most times our clients have no continuity interruptions.
For me, it's much fun mucking about in such an environment, always learning new stuff! I think Meg is doing a really good job too bringing our company around. It's a HUGE company so it takes awhile lol.
I guarantee that the CIA is somehow involved in this. And ISIS, and Al Qaeda are both probably thinking about weaponizing it. ISIS "owns" whole cities and many of their core are university trained...combined with their suicidal tendencies; I fully expect "Zombies of Mass Destruction" for real in New York but with Ebola. Forget a "dirty bomb", infected US citizens coming back "under cover" to their families could wreak mass havoc.
this too is a big reason there are less women in IT. Guys are more willing to stretch their experience...women are more conservative on their resumes...thus they don't get the job as often.
I work at HP, and I'm hoping my power cord I leave plugged in 24/7 starts a fire and burns my building down. Oh, the irony...an HP building burned down do to a faulty HP power cord!
same problem here. Even though the FCC considers exclusivity contracts illegal, my apartment complex management barely comprehends how to turn on the lights or get the lawn mowed...trying to get them to bring another ISP in (that is available all around us) is like getting a chimpanzee to do calculus.
no, his wife should GET BACK IN THE KITCHEN and leave the computer alone. The computer is a boy thing...if she wants to have something electronic there's always a vacuum cleaner./sarcasm
The biggest problem with lasers is the atmosphere. Too much energy sucked up by the time it gets to the target. Look for metamaterials that will fix this soon!
FANTASY? Obviously you've never worked a help desk. The IT Crowd was very accurate, "have you tried turning it off and back on again" solves 80% of all calls.
really, the best place on Mars to colonize would be the middle-planet canyons. Plenty of caves, and eventually we could build a cover over parts of it and begin transforming the canyon system itself.
I think their Head Engineer was drunk and suicidal, or maybe Putin called him and said "Blow the plant for Mother Russia". They basically blew it up on purpose "accidentally", in a big rush of "testing" without even telling the people working there what was up.
My question is when will the CEO of TEPCO,Naomi Hirose, come out to the site and perform the honorable actions? He must climb to the top of the tallest building left standing and commit seppuku on live TV. Only the old ways can redeem him, his family, and his companies Honor. By allowing corruption to overcome proper paid-for by the public engineering he has caused untold damage to our planet.Whomever the head engineer that signed off on all of this should probably join him too.
And their tritium side-product has a bonus effect, once we understand how to coat the internal piping with graphine nano-layers, which is the production of helium 3. We're already in very short supply of h3, and are even drawing up plans to mine it from the Moon. One MSR could become a breeder reactor for the next level up on our powerplant tech. These kids have much catching up to do; I would look to Russia in securing anything (and anyone; ie scientists) that did their research...in 2007 the same labs started doing nanotech research too. Maybe if they could secure all the plans from the MSBR, pick up from the engineering left off by ORN and start actually working out the hard mechanical engineering side of it should put them in the range of fission power!
In about 20-30 years, they'll have a working reactor.

I've heard of some Africans raping virgins thinking that will cure their diseases.

we use a HUGE amount of drugs too, don't forget that.
I would have done some midnight tree maintenance...
you can normally get a cable modem or dsl off Craigslist for $20 anyway!
technically the FCC said exclusivity at a multi-dwelling building is illegal, but yeah good luck with that.

I don't even know what my "ISP email" address is. I set it up two years ago cause ATnT forced me too...never checked it, never logged in. oops.

My clients still get 24/7 support over holidays...but the main client is American Airlines so I'm sure their paying $$$$$ to have use here.

We tried the "banning of specific boats" right before WWII, lot of good it did.
Metafilter? I hardly know her!
We don't "worship the gun". Go watch the movie Zardoz, THAT is worshiping the gun!

I think it would have been better spent just giving the money to SpaceX
You just need a longer driveway!
