Sherlock was good but we had to sit very close. Visually overwhelming. Looking forward to seeing it again on DVD in a few months.
I think I had the same problem with Star Trek in IMAX. - Andy Dustman

Modernizr is a small and simple JavaScript library that helps you take advantage of emerging web technologies (CSS3, HTML 5) while still maintaining a fine level of control over older browsers that may not yet support these new technologies. - Andy Dustman

"Delete the com.apple.internetconfigpriv.plist and com.apple.internetconfig.plist files from ~/Library/Preferences" This seems to have fixed my problems (only deleted internetconfigpriv, then rebooted, then poked at it a bit more in System Preferences). - Andy Dustman

Alright, I'm going to open up a can of worms here, so I'm sorry for the drama in advance... (Tina inspired drama meme)
But what is the best cake? Yellow or chocolate? - Eric @ CSTechcast.com
I think it's all about Yellow. Yellow wins! - Eric @ CSTechcast.com
Just kidding... I like pound cake the best. - Lindsay is in 20-ten
Does pound count as a vote for yellow? It's yellow in color. - Eric @ CSTechcast.com
Deep dark chocolate, no contest! - Spidra Webster
Choco chicken vote 1 - Yellow 1 - Eric @ CSTechcast.com
It is yellow, unless you make a flavored one... but I think "yellow cake" is it's own thang... - Lindsay is in 20-ten
Cocolate - Rasmus Lauridsen
"Yellowcake (also called urania) is a kind of uranium concentrate powder obtained from leach solutions, in an intermediate step in the processing of uranium ores." Yeah, I think I'll vote for chocolate then. - Mark H
Is it weird yellow became a flavor? - Eric @ CSTechcast.com
@Mark - LOL!!! - Lindsay is in 20-ten
ha3rvey, is that a vote for all cakes? - Eric @ CSTechcast.com
Eric: Yes, it is. :) - ha3rvey (wants confit)
Marble? That takes the drama meter up a notch. - Eric @ CSTechcast.com
Lemon, a yellow vote? - Eric @ CSTechcast.com
Oh, lemon cake! I forgot about that one... nom!! - Lindsay is in 20-ten
Chocolate!! you Lemon! :p - directeur
I'm really pulling for yellow here people. Someone give me a hand! - Eric @ CSTechcast.com
http://www.dramabutton.com I'll have to go with Yellow cake. I'm not a fan of chocolate. Chocolate is for losers. (Come on, nobody's going to take the troll bait?) ;-) - Jason, Incognito
See, people got my back! - Eric @ CSTechcast.com
There's something about a yellow cake with chocolate icing. I love chocolate cake, but sometimes all chocolate is too much chocolate. - Derrick
And a lemon pound cake will catch my attention before either of those, frankly. *fist bumps Cecily* - Derrick
Derrick, I agree, but my wife would disagree with me in new and dynamic ways. - Eric @ CSTechcast.com

I'm counting Carrot as Yellow! - Eric @ CSTechcast.com
Ice cream cake FTW - Curtiss Grymala
o_O not sure what type of carrot cake you've been eating, Eric! - WorldofHiglet
Ha! I'm fixing the election. It's like I'm a pollster. - Eric @ CSTechcast.com
Chocolate with Italian creme. - Holly Rae
Well actually, Eric, I meant carrot cake made with purple carrots :P - WorldofHiglet
There are purple carrots? - Eric @ CSTechcast.com
Pffft. You've clearly never heard of the Carrot Museum! http://www.carrotmuseum.co.uk/history... - WorldofHiglet
So, if you eat enough purple carrots, will your skin turn purple? That would be awesome. - Jason, Incognito
Did someone say cake? I want to go to there. - LAST DAY OF WORK
Eric, that was some good drama, and I'm gonna let you finish... but Tina just had the best drama post OF ALL TIME. - Andy Dustman

Well, SOME people might call it a snake skin, others a raincoat, aka a condom. =O We're pretty sure it's my soon-to-be-ex brother in law playing a prank on us. Actually, let me rephrase: we're HOPING it's him playing a prank on us... - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

I was on the dock in Alameda one morning waiting for the ferry. I looked down and saw a condom floating by. I felt so sorry for the Bay and all the abuse it suffers. - vicster is...
sorry, but i cant hide this fast enuff, :( (i still cant believe i enlarged the pic to look, :( - chaz2b
How funny - orionstarr from iPhone
Tina, you might want to edit your initial post to include that you found out it was a gag (unless you're just enjoying the shocked reactions). Your explanation is getting lost in the shuffle. - Kamilah Gill

How to build cheap cloud storage (67 terabyte 4U servers for $7,867) - Backblaze Blog - http://blog.backblaze.com/2009...
How to build cheap cloud storage (67 terabyte 4U servers for $7,867) - Backblaze Blog
How to build cheap cloud storage (67 terabyte 4U servers for $7,867) - Backblaze Blog
Amazing level of transparency and detail about their custom storage servers. HN discussion at http://news.ycombinator.com/item... (discusses why this is appropriate for backup, but perhaps not generic storage needs) - Bret Taylor from Bookmarklet
Put me down for two. - Jason Shellen
45 drives per unit and many units means they must be constantly replacing failed hard drives - just due to the sheer quantity of them in use - Jacob Old
It wasn't entirely clear to me from the blog post what you have to do to replace a drive. Looks like at minimum you have to remove the unit from the rack, and I don't see any drawer guides or similar to assist with that. And do they have to take the unit offline to replace a single drive? - Jason Wehmhoener
Geez. Back in 1998, Microsoft was bragging about their 1 TB cloud... :-) Millions of $ then I think. - Mitchell Tsai
One happy Backblaze customer checking in. - Russellreno
sounds neat - now what to do with 67 TB of storage... - Matt Ellsworth
Seriously Matt! Lots and Lots and Lots of video? HD video! - Rick Cogley
So, they store their data "securely" in Palo Alto? That makes me scared. - Jonas S Karlsson
Quoted from blog- "Backblaze Storage Pods are building blocks upon which a larger system can be organized that doesn’t allow for a single point of failure." They have indicated an amazing amount of cost savings. - Wins Fern
$117k for a petabyte of storage. Wow. - Nicholas James
Petabyte schmetabyte. - Rick Cogley
Mitchell: I don't think 1TB was "millions of dollars" in 1998. - Steve de Mena
Nice idea. Pity that it only supports a HTTPS interface, not surprising at that cost though (the software that runs the filesystems on the NetApp and other devices isn't exactly cheap to write). Anyone see if they quoted transfer speeds? I'm wondering what impact the four SATA cards each with SATA multipliers on them has when it comes to access speeds. - Russ
Steve: according to http://www.littletechshoppe.com/ns1625... disk cost ~$0.08 / mb in 1998, which comes out to >$800,000 for 1 TB or just over a million bucks in todays dollars. so maybe not millions, but a million! - Karl Rosaen
Russ: It runs Debian. If you were rolling your own (and they don't sell these units), you could turn on NFS or some other protocol (CIFS, iSCSI). They only use HTTP because it's cloud storage. NFS license is a major expense on NetApp, but all the major Linux distributions can act as NFS servers, CIFS servers, and probably iSCSI targets. - Andy Dustman
Andy: I know that you could do that on them but it leaves the problem of what to do with the storage. You could merge the 3 volumes into an LVM VG but the performance could become an issue with any load on it. It seems I wasn't the only one to question the performance, while the views of a Sun engineer aren't exactly unbiased it does highlight some of the downsides: http://www.c0t0d0s0.org/archive... - Russ
Russ, great find, thanks. - Jason Wehmhoener
Fascinating article; but more questions: "In rough terms, every time one of our customers buys a hard drive, Backblaze needs another hard drive." -- so what happens when a drive fails; how much redundancy is there? What happens when a meteorite destroys the whole building; is there off site backup too? (I know this *is* the off-site backup, but still...) I wonder how much data flows in and out over time. Maybe I should just read their website. - Rob Fisher
Rob: they mention using 15 drive RAID6 volumes that can lose up to 2 drives before failure - Mike Chelen
The worst part about this cluster design is the fact that I couldn’t shut up about it for the first couple days after finding out about it. It was the solution I proposed to every problem. There were complaints. - A Mitchell
IMO RAID6 is not that great. Granted, it's highly unlikely to lose 3 drives at the same time, but there's still possibility. Besides, for write-intensive app, parity calculation is quite time-consuming. I personally prefer RAID 10 (striped array of RAID1 pairs). Yes the effective usable space is less than half total capacity, but for backups -- which will sooner or later be used to restore something -- I prefer data integrity over usage efficiency. - Pandu ● IT Optimizer from fftogo

Petabytes on a budget: How to build cheap cloud storage | Backblaze Blog - http://blog.backblaze.com/2009...
"At Backblaze, we provide unlimited storage to our customers for only $5 per month, so we had to figure out how to store hundreds of petabytes of customer data in a reliable, scalable way—and keep our costs low. After looking at several overpriced commercial solutions, we decided to build our own custom Backblaze Storage Pods: 67 terabyte 4U servers for $7,867." - Andy Dustman

I would like to see netapp tweak "lun clone" to allow the cloned lun to be in a volume different from then the original lun.
I suspect that would be hard/impossible. You could use vol clone if available. - Andy Dustman

If you don't know what utility, cutter and canner beef is, or what mechanically separated chicken is, you really don't want to snap into a Slim Jim [Interesting] - http://www.fark.com/cgi...

Andrew Badera
Man wrongly convicted of molesting 6 kids in 1980s. Did 22 years, was repeatedly raped, beaten in prison. Prosecutor withheld key evidence pointing to his innocence, used homophobic terms like "faggot." Prosecutor not only wasn't punished, he was promoted to judge, where he's served for 20 years. - http://www.reddit.com/r...
Like is inappropriate. - EricaJoy
Agreed Erica. Perhaps Facebook will change that paradigm ... something with a little more granularity. "Bookmarked" not "liked" ... - Andrew Badera
"Recommended" perhaps. I suspect most people can figure out that "Liked" refers the article and not the events described therein. - Andy Dustman
Recommended is good. This has long been an issue that I'm quite surprised FF never dealt with in any form. - Andrew Badera

Mother Charged with Child Pornography - http://bothwell.typepad.com/whos_yo...
"The photo in question: Jacqueline Mercado and Johnny Fernandez say they took this image last October to memorialize the breast-feeding stage of their son's life. Below: The Lucca Madonna, painted in the 15th century by the Dutch master Jan van Eyck. Defense lawyers argued that while breast-feeding images are a second-degree felony in Richardson [Texas], they are also on public display in the finest art museums in the world." - Alex Scrivener
From the Article: "The United States has the most sexually-repressed yet disgustingly perverted culture on the planet. Only a culture of self-loathing, closeted pedophiles and sexual deviants would consider breastfeeding an erotic activity constituting child pornography. Sickos." - Matthew DeVries
We also have a tradition of taking children away from parents for stupid reasons and ruining the lives of everyone involved. If they don't get the kid back soon, a judge may decide that it has grown comfortable with whatever foster parents it is with, and refuse to let i go back. It's happened before. - Alex Scrivener
I will never understand breastfeeding pictures, but I don't think they were the big deal here. They had no reason to pose the kids naked, 4 is kind of getting up there for being cutesy. (That said my parents love the pic of little kid me with no shirt on in the backyard with my arms over my chest, but they couldn't keep my shirt on if they wanted to.) It's an extreme reaction, but when you take pics of your kids naked, do it with a digital camera. - Heather
It's bizarre. Breast-feeding is not illegal. Being naked in your own home is not illegal. Why should photographs of either be illegal? At least the DA recognized there was no crime here and dropped the charges, but she still doesn't have her kids back. - Andy Dustman
Richardson is a somewhat fucked up city, even by Texas standards. - Joe Silence is Dr. Teeth!
"In America sex is an obsession, in the rest of the world it is a fact." -Marlene Dietrich - jacek
FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
I'm so tired of hearing that X% of social media is babble/noise/whatever. The things I post are all the same type of things I'd discuss in real life. Have you ever met someone who discusses nothing but meaningful, profound items in real life? They get boring quickly, not to mention coming across as a bit pompous.
The same people that claim X% is babble/noise/etc. are the same people I tend to not follow :) - Dean "Karnatos" Michaud
I agree...babble and noise are in the ear of the beholder...that doesn't that one person's noise can't be the most beautiful sound in the universe to another. - jeff hammond
Yeah, you can't measure something like this. The "report" itself is pointless babble. - Gus
IRL, i constantly talk about musical instruments and recording equipment. some day i will be strangled in my sleep by those who live with me. - Joe Silence is Dr. Teeth!
It just irks me to know that some people expect others to be 100% useful, insightful, meaningful, and possibly even "game changing" 100% of the time. Highly unrealistic. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Get off it. You know when you and I met, we totally solved all the world's problems. Why aren't we sharing that information with everyone again? I forget. - pea
It's because we couldn't figure out Step 2: ??? that would get us to Step 3: Profit!!! - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
DO ANYBODY NO WHY WE LIKE CRIMPLES OVA PROFOUND? - WorldofHiglet
Because profound is much less likely to make me snort with laughter? I mean, we can find serious stuff anywhere, but a good laugh every day can be hard to come by! - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
You are very right, Tina! If I wanted to indulge in high discourse I would probably still come to FF...but mostly I want to be entertained with LOLcats, funny banter and Johnny dropping his pants. Oh - and shark jumping (literal or not!). - WorldofHiglet
I find this post to be meaningful, profound and insightful. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
It happens to the best of us, Mark: I fail at being lighthearted all the time just as much as I fail at being profound all the time. Damn my humanity!!! - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Ninety percent of everything is crap -- Sturgeon's Law - Andy Dustman
Actually, Tina, I was only half-jocular. Your meaningful, insightful profundity may have been sub-consciously generated, if not purposefully ironic. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
No, the post was certainly intended to be thoughtful, though I dunno about 'profound'. I can't be just one or the other, I'm not solely insightful nor am I solely lighthearted. Is anyone? This whole line of thought is why I don't use lists: I don't think any of us really fit in those boxes. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Why do you think I dumped all none friendship social media. That's why I'm spending so much time going out with friends and using facebook. More personal and interesting. - Richard A.
I think that changed as soon as we were able to block someone, many started this way. The 'kick' of it all is to get what you want and not what folks shove at you (unless of course like me you like shoving...lol). - professor daddyo
There's a long distance between "mundane" and "babble"; I don't see anything in your feed that I'd classify as "babble", but there certainly is a lot of really empty rattling out there. - Tristan Seligmann
I'm absorbed by social media, tech, and collaborative work. I'm also worried about coming across as boring or pompous. I'm relentlessly curious. - Mark Essel
It is good to mix it up. - Joe
The major part of our life is not poetry, it is prose and so boring, like the posts in the social network. Nobody can be exstraordinary every moment. We are human. - Stefania Cabitza
I meet people with whom the vast majority of things I discuss are profound. We keep are visits rare, and are poetry sweet. We look to each other for inspiration. I actually owe one of those people an email...but most of life is mundane. - Shana
It's a bit like people forwarding the spam mail they got earlier to show and complain to me about the spam mail they got earlier. - Michael W. May
