You need to do some layer 4 traffic shaping to use your satellite connection for bulk download and streaming media and use your cellular connection for browsing and other latency sensitive activities.
This is mostly correct, the vast majority of the current US nuclear arsenal is comprised of variants of the B61 with selectable yields between 100-450kt, the remaining large yield weapons are the B83 bombs with a maximum yield of ~2.1MT.
Yeah, like nobody ever learned LISP, PASCAL, BASIC, Eiffel, Erlang, Haskell, LOGO, or Scheme before there was an internet... Plenty of languages have flourished in academia without having broad industry support. Some exist primarily as teaching languages, others are most appropriate for domains where there's not a lot of practical economic application yet.
Uh, this software isn't going to get onto a blackberry device with BES lockdown policies, only onto unlocked devices where the user takes some action to install it (most likely bundled with some free game as I doubt drive by downloading is worth the effort for the low penetration numbers unless it's a spearfishing attack).
This is such crap, my employer isn't even part of the S&P 500 anymore and over 1% of the total shares trade each day on the market. Any listed security is going to have plenty of trading partners. Quit trying to justify the salami attack on the market that is HFT.
I assure you that there are MANY 800 GB SAS/SATA SSD's that can beat your hybrid drive, they just cost more than most people will spend on their entire computer =)
LOL, you seriously have people coming in for a senior dev position that can't answer those questions? I'm just a sysadmin who dropped out after a few years of CS and I can answer those no problem =)
See, to me your post is indicative of exactly what's wrong in IT hiring today. If you're looking for exactly the "right" person it probably means your making people play buzzword bingo. This is the lazy way to hire IT people and it does nothing to assure that you actually get a good candidate. Instead you need to hire someone with the correct level of experience for the job, some familiarity with subject matter of the position, and the ability to learn. That is ALL the qualification you should realistically need since even if they've used the exact same product at the exact same version level it's likely that your environment has enough differences to their previous experience that it might as well have been a different product. It's never taken me more than two weeks to hire someone. In fact the only position at my employer I would have trouble filling quickly is the one we outsourced after having four people in 3 years fail in our environment (we needed someone with Oracle and MS SQL experience and knowledge of our ERP platform, very very niche).
Well of course they wouldn't have sold the product as cheaply if they had material knowledge of a pending deal the buyer had, but unless there was some disclosure requirement in the purchase agreement then they should have been told to GTFO.
Low RH is bad because you get static buildup. Sure we've got anti-static wax on the floor and all the cages are grounded, but I still don't want to risk frying a computer because I couldn't keep RH in the right range. Also low RH is easy to achieve since CRAC units due it by their nature =) Even in the middle of summer you have to run humidifiers.
Yep, we never put the tapes from the delivery truck directly into the tape library during the winter for exactly this reason. The tapes get loaded on the truck early in the morning when it's often in the teens outside, taking them from that to the 80 degree datacenter is bad enough, putting them in the 100 degree environment of the tape library without acclimating them would be foolish.
I wouldn't think you'd need a virtual TPM, you should be able to pass through the device. Now, the better questions are a) how do you do so securely and b) what does that do to VM mobility? Also, remember that this is NOT a UEFI problem, it's a secure boot problem. We've had both EFI/UEFI and TPM for about a decade now, it's the combination of the two to enable secure boot that seems to get peoples knickers in a twist.
The solar shed project on that site has a cost of ~$6,000 for the solar part of the project. It produces ~160k BTU per day. Well one mcf of natural gas contains ~1,020,000 BTU's and costs $4.62 retail around me. Assuming 5 heating months per year the solar shed will save you ~24M BTU or $110 per year. That means the payoff even ignoring the time value of money is 55 years.
WHAT?!? Secure Boot will do nothing to impede enterprise Windows users. You'll either use Windows8/2012 and have a signed boot loader or use 2008R2/7 and disable secure boot. Btw it would also do nothing to impede enterprise Linux users either, they'd either use a commercial signed distribution or build their own and have the build process install their keys into the TPM chip (trust me, enterprises already deal with crypto from internal PKI to external SSL to drive encryption).
It's highly unlikely they'll actually replace antennas unless they need to for MIMO reasons. Generally when the providers upgrade a tower it's all done from the ground by switching out cards and/or software.
VM already has a 4G phone, the HTC EVO V. It uses the legacy WiMax, not LTE, but it's 4G. My guess is they are offering WiMax on VM because they have to finish out a contract with Clear and so as they move their higher RPU users off WiMax to LTE they might as well get some revenue from the WiMax spectrum they're still paying for.
Yeah, SMI-S was supposed to save us from vendor tool lockin for the storage sector, never happened. The SMI-S layers are so complex and the API so flexible that by the time a third party can understand how to control the product via SMI-S the array is either obsolete or the internal management piece has changed enough that the effort is worthless.
Yes, it's called a mobile device management platform. There are a variety of options for both iOS and Android (often they support both). Personally I think the future is going to be Android VM's, you'll have a personal profile and a corporate profile, each with their own apps and data and they only thing they will share is the hardware. VMWare already has such a product but it only runs on a small handful of smartphones, I think eventually it will get added to stock Android.
The live olympic streams are pushing about 6.5Mbps for 720p so there's obviously a use for that kind of speed.

The answer to your first two questions is universally poorly.

That's not that bad, here in NE Ohio we've had from 45C to -40C at the extremes.

Why would the dew point be any different during the winter, don't you have humidity control in your datacenter?

Yep, my dad's small business absolutely LOVES his accounts with a gross 40% margin. Like you his average is probably half that.

Uh, have you had any dealings with AT&T? There's a reason their 1983-1999 logo was nicknamed the death star.

There's also OFDM which is used for WiMax and LTE.
