Not really a fan of oracle at all, but I have to congratulate the Dyn folks for how far they came from a dormroom server at WPI. I had the pleasure of spending a short summer internship there, and it was a formative experience. They had not only great engineering but also some of the most impressive sysadmin / ops people I've known. Especially the network stuff is a dying art these days.
- bogomipz 10y agoWhat is WPI?
- JonFish85 10y agoGuessing "Worcester Polytechnic Institute".

- makmanalp 10y agoA tiny engineering school in Massachusetts. I'll spare you the marketing-heavy website, but It's an awesome place with a small-town feel, where nerdy pursuits are encouraged and helped to flourish into professions and businesses.
- bogomipz 10y agoOh sure, the acronym through me. Thanks.

- makmanalp 10y agoHah, that one is new to me! :-)
