I know the drones fly slower than a normal jet but wouldn't the latency to something on the other side of the world be a problem? I'd think you'd want someone who's at least on the same continent.

If your oldest AR is 60 days count yourself very lucky. While my dad's small business has normal net 30 and at most net 60 terms with his customers he often has outstanding bills for 120-180 days. When a single order can be $40k+ in materials that means he sometimes has to take out a loan to float these delinquent accounts.
Hmm, I had a very different experience, I was in elementary school and we had CBT's (mavis beacon teaches typing and such) and plenty of infotainment games like where in the world is carmen sandiego and Oregon trail. In 5th grade I went over to the junior high to learn programming in Logo.
Most prof's barely care about *any* undergraduate classes, much less 100 and 200 level ones. This might be different at smaller schools, but most of the ones I've attended have been midsized or larger and the best you can hope for in intro classes is indifference.
The only way I mastered calculus was through a CC, I flunked it a couple times at two different engineering schools before taking it with someone who could actually teach at the local CC. Engineers and math people generally can't teach worth a damn, even less so in subjects they don't care about. I really don't see where having smaller class sizes and teachers who actually give a damn is a negative.
Even then it's generally not a problem. I attended university part time in my junior and senior year through what my state calls the post-secondary enrollment option. It's basically a talented and gifted program on steroids. I had a friend who graduated with their associates two weeks before they got their HS diploma =)
Windows gets really cranky when it doesn't have a pagefile. We tried it for performance reasons and we saw an almost 40% drop in performance despite the server not being under any kind of memory pressure.
Actually what you really need to do is calculate hard pages/second which for some retarded reason isn't available as a default stat counter, ie those pages which actually go to the secondary backing store (disk).
Nah, if he was chaotic evil he would have taken off once he reached the ship, him going back shows he really is chaotic neutral leaning towards good. Killing alone does not evil make, it's all in your intentions and who's judging you.
Wow, the AG has the power of the veto in.AU? That's a pretty strange arrangement where the guy charged with enforcing the law gets to decide if something should be a law.
Like I said we do bi-annual load testing so we know it works supporting the load. The weekly testing is to keep the fluids worked and keep moisture out of places it shouldn't be. It also helps to burn off the fuel over time so the diesel doesn't get too old.
There's almost no virigin forest being harvested in NA or Europe, they've all been either chopped down hundreds of years ago or protected in national parks and forests. Even if there were a virgin forest available for harvest it would almost surely be used for lumber instead of paper because of the superior beauty of old growth wood.
Exactly, my problem isn't with the people holding the H1B, they are generally some of the smartest and hardest working people you will meet, it's with the system that's setup to make them almost indentured servants to their sponsoring company. I've said for a long time that we really, really need to encourage these people to STAY here, that's how we will stay competitive on the international stage. It's the same with Mexican immigration, the only way the boomers will have enough people to care for them in their old age is if we grow our population because the internal growth rate is flat to slightly negative and they on average had relatively small families.
I like the Panamera, one of the better looking modern Porsche designs, though not nearly as drool-worthy as the Carrera GT (why does that car not photograph as well as it looks in person?)
Because the fans and heatsinks are designed to work in a certain orientation? It's not like convection will move much air (G4 cube comes to mind, even with a big volume it was barely kept in design limits). Oh and I HATE rackmount stuff with front network ports, means I have to use a 1U blanking panel and cut holes for the cables since the racks are all designed for normal equipment. The exception of course is switches where having the ports in front makes sense, but those go into a different kind of rack with front patch management.
75.2 isn't much hotter than I keep my datacenter where the setpoint is 72+2, ie the compressors run until they get the room to 72 and then don't kick in again till it gets to 74.
Thanks! I wish our VAR had simply told us that, would have saved quite a bit of reading multiple spec sheets and whitepapers for each unit to figure out which tech they used (as you say buck and boost and a couple other keywords were the key to figuring which were line-interactive).
Actually Windows tends to do the best with unplanned shutdowns, I've had way worse times with Solaris and Linux boxes then I ever had with Windows. I hear AIX and zOS are even worse, but they are generally used in professional datacenters and so unplanned power outages are much less common.
Here's a Kohler 30kw generator with a claimed load transfer time of 10 seconds, $10k list so figure $20k installed with ATS. It's natural gas which is actually much easier at 30kw (my 100, 250, and 500kw sets are too big for the gas lines in our commercial park to handle so we use diesel).
The problem is without enough UPS to cleanly shutdown your brief 30 second power outage can turn into a whole day or multiday affair of repairing boxes and verifying and fixing data integrity issues.
Your experience is one of two main reasons I hate line interactive UPS's, the other is that if you get a big enough surge a double conversion UPS will usually self-sacrifice and protect the equipment. APC makes both and it's sometime hard to tease out which model is which technology, but for me it's worth the research effort to get the slightly more expensive double conversion units.
Our diesel standby generators kick on and assume load in 20-30 seconds. Of course we have a maintenance contract and weekly generator tests to make sure that stays true, a neglected generator probably won't kick on at all.
Yes, but Warner also has to license it's works for use under the statutory licensing scheme established by the ARB, they have no choice so long as the station can pay the rates. So, if Pandora et al can still make money paying the statutory rates this bozo can go pound dirt. This is why Pandora and several other sites are US only, compulsory licensing makes it so they don't have to deal with the idiot content companies one at a time and become subject to their whim like this idiot would like.

Every day might be a bit much, we tests ours weekly and run a full load test bi-annually.
Our diesel standby generators kick on and assume load in 20-30 seconds. Of course we have a maintenance contract and weekly generator tests to make sure that stays true, a neglected generator probably won't kick on at all.
14kW is two orders of magnitude too small, and you know it. Even 100kW is more than an order of magnitude too small.
