I have a really important question here: If tape, drives and controller, enclosure etc. are so expensive, *why* are big corps still using tapes to do their backup ?
Is it that reliable? I mean... If I store a harddrive properly as I would have done with a tape, does the harddrive lose data quicker than the tape?
Why is there no "hard drive based robots" to change harddrives in an enclosure automatically as we have for LTO? It could be cheaper and as reliable isn't it?
maybe because some people are living far away from Vegas, and that the trip to and from Vegas will cost them at least 3 times the ticket, (and I don't mention hotel and food...)
That's what we call the death of network neutrality :
What if you implement this "misbehavior control" in the network, and a few months later, someone create a protocol that will NEED this kind of behavior ? (I guess emule protocol is already behaving that way...)

In France we have a (quite famous now) guy who told about it a few years ago : Benjamin Bayart told us how the "free (as in speech) Internet" may become a "Minitel 2.0" (he means 'a centralized information-&-entertainment-distribution network')
Jet is often using locks to be sure that no one will overwrite the data you previously edited. Samba 3.0 has some code to manage the buggy Windows sharing protocol locking system.
You should really read man smb.conf and search for "lock" to learn a bit about it.
I'm pretty sure that your earlier problem was a locking one.
Samba has not changed a lot reagarding this locking issue, but you can tweak it perfectly, it just takes a little time to learn how to do it and what to do.
My experience with samba is that (on a big server of course) it can handle hundreds of connections with some Gbps throughoutput (we did it under linux with ethernet bonding and heavy kernel tunning of course...)
The problem with this kind of belief in "magical" properties of phi is that... it's not magical at all...
Phi is (among other definitions) <b>defined</b> by the positive root of x²-x-1=0. So, we see, at once, that x²=1+x
There are other interesting properties of phi though, (among other the ones about pentagons, as with pi and circles) but 1+phi and 1/phi are definitely from phi's definition.
I guess the one that may be very useful (at least for me) is Google Alert... Remember : you just type a web search phrase and Google send you an Email each time there is something new on the web for this research. Yes, it doesn't really work in realtime as we may want to, but it's still a killer feature for the web imho. And other "forgotten" apps are quite crappy. I hope Google will still develop Google Alerts : it deserve it.
Not really : this is claiming that because most of people actually grow their own veggies, super markets should quickly find new products to sell, or die...

You CAN use glue records, I mean just put your www.example.com A record into the.com root server, and it will answer pretty fast,
but you SHOULDN'T do that of course, and nobody in big companies or big ISP do this isn't it -...-
No, you can (and certainly should) access each and every comment in its own URL. So you may put a synthesis of all comments tags plus the article tags on the complete article itself, and comment tags only on comments urls.

I once signed up for a Hot Mail Account, years ago and never used it,
Please don't forget that hotmail.com (as many other well-known domains) receive many spam from so-called "dictionnary attack" : the spammer try every email starting at "a" and going through to "zzzzzzzzzz"... It's not that hard for them, and as the famous hotmail.com domains grow, they can touch more and more users.
I'm sure that the most important about this experience is not that 85% of the predicted mouvement or behaviors where true, but that one day, we will do something with the 15% where the prediction will be false...
It's a story about how the operators will be able to tell when you are doing something unusual, maybe suspect...
I am very worried about such a potential misuse of personnal data.
So, read EFF documents again, stay paranoid and sell or throw away you mobile phones guys !
I just read an article (in french) ( Subversiv ) about "information"...
There is a very interesting example in it : In the bible (Genesis, IX, 20-25), Cham, son of Noe, found his father drunk and naked. Instead of helping him wearing clothes and go to bed, the son told it to his brothers.
It was the first journalist, and he was doomed for that !...

Problem two IS a real matter in many projects, it looks like you never had a project divided into smaller chunks...
very simple example : one folder for the code, one for the graphics, one with the html/css stuff and so on...
Thanks for this warning : for me this is a very strong argument against git !
well, so you say that 1/sqrt(1-v²/c²) is not pretty ?
...
;)
well done, I found it pretty impressive and far more than that poor E=mc² which is, in fact, simple expression of SI units
The 1/sqrt() famous one is harder to explain and much harder to prove, so my opinion is that THIS one is pretty

Informative, informative ...

Informative you said ?
yep,
...
Don't we have enough dissidents or journalists who want to tell everybody about our so called 'censorship' on information ?
