SolusVM was removed a while back a few months after the second hack I believe.  Clients control it via their own CP in WHMCS 's services section.

+1  If you're serious about getting a qualified senior engineer, skip the request for spec work.  Sure it happens sometimes one will bite, but its exceedingly rare.  They're the ones in demand and have the power to pass you over.   I'd also caution against doing trial piecework if you're...

Interesting 60ms.  New underwater cable route?  But ya, people with DR needs in the EU were kinda stuck up a boat without a paddle if they also had EU data protection requirements to meet.  Now they have no excuse.

At the end of the backends docs, there's the bit about local storage.  Frankenstein a sshfs mount (silly as it may sound).

That video made me sad.  Somewhere out there is a starving 10 year old who lost out on the chance to burn the MB for copper.

s3ql  not as far as pure block-level, but it does split files and reads/writes only those parts required (effectively yes).

I actually welcome the new series of regional DCs. If you don't know, AMS1/2 are almost literally across the street from each other. MultiDC replication in that case covers a few things, but the risks of simultaneous outage is still rather high. The UK DC at least offers a medium latency repl...

Because their pricing can get confusing, the 5 min I previously said elsewhere was the rate to get 0.05c/metric. You can go down to 5 sec resolution if you want. The price increase is expected since the RRD style storage for one years retention starts to get obscene. Your minutely resolution...

Or you could give them a budget.  120 trillion dollars for a rocket ship to the centre of a black hole where you could possibly get 7 lines all perpendicular to each other.  The little light that does escape would be red-shifted so it doesn't matter what colour the ink was.  Transparency might...

Could you take the coursera approach and just put links as your accordion?  The videos themselves are on a click-through page since the still shots would have looked all the same anyways.

You can do anything Amitz!

That memset point is a stylistic choice. The original uses sizeof struct, not sizeof on a pointer - perfectly valid and standard, especially with appropriate type naming.

The leeches make me sad.

Primarily in reference to raid controllers, specifically driver/replacement concerns.  Processors while technically EOL don't really have as much of a concern for me.  Likewise with chipsets and memory.   I've just probably seen too many requests in the past on WHT from people looking to shove...

You should test the app to be sure it supports tcp wrapper libs.

Steal time is time the kernel can't account for as user, system or idle.  In a virtual environment, if you have some cpu bandwidth limiter, the kernel will see work being done outside its purview - effectively the hypervisor 'steals' it back.  This becomes the %st.  I've seen it in heavily...

I would have pegged it as the converse reason why NY is chosen as a good half-way point to serve both EU/US markets.  

Silly question, but is there any reason to use non-reserved IPs behind a NAT?  *preemptively shakesfist*

It kinda depends on what you actually wanted to measure.  Despite our talk about the emulation layers in FS calls, if what you wanted was to measure app-to-metal performance and not raw, it still does that.  It'll just return a large range given 1) Time of day. 2) You're on a shared...
