Right. Blame it on the victim. How do you make a "fault tolerant" service when core services like ELB together with the API behind it start to fail? Multi-region? Multi-cloud? When is it "designed to make web-scale computing easier" part su

ELB is also fucked. Seen that nobody mentions it. Some of our load balancers are completely unreachable. Just one multi-AZ RDS instance claimed the automatic failover. However, the 200+ alerts over the automatic failover due to internal DNS

You still have Gnome, KDE, Xfce, etc. So, why the fuss?

No issues in the internal EC2 network. At least, none that I could find. I guess that's the reason why ELB doesn't shift any traffic. The whole issue seems to be on the Internet facing network. Failing routers, maybe. Pingdom still claims 1

Had a bunch of timeout alerts. Some machines of an application server array have the packet drop issue. ELB says that everything is peachy. Folks, we're experiencing yet another "EC2 flavored SNAFU™". Initial though was: f#*k, I ran out of

It isn't a node.js related problem, but more of a GitHub related problem when a specific issue is deemed to be "legendary". Example: https://github.com/MrMEEE/bumblebee-Old-and-abbandoned/issue...

Depends on platform. It is under FreeBSD. It wipes the entire userland that isn't part of the base system. That means every piece of software installed from the ports collection.

It's not that easy. I use the "push" authentication model, aka Google sends me an SMS whenever I need to authenticate a device . I don't request it explicitly. The pairing is made between the authentication code, and that device. Now, if i

It's actually called ROT26: "An encryption scheme similar to ROT13, but twice as secure."

> "[]+[]" throws a TypeError Couldn't agree more. But that's the standard. At some point I hoped that the ES5 'use strict' would fix all of this SNAFU, but it didn't. However, not even once I tried to sum [] + [] or {} + {} till that "w

Thing is that you can't blame the keyboard for a PEBCAK. We all encounter that "never forget" moments at some point. Having a Command key is a moot point as the whole purpose of power user tools is this: having the power, and the consequenc

Except for the fact that shift + insert is for pasting. ctrl + insert is for copy. Did not change till the old DOS days. Still works today, and even more, it works in my Konsole terminal emulator. There's nothing painful about that. Once yo

At work, with crappy Microsoft LifeChat LX-3000 there's a barely noticeable difference. Can't tell which is which anyway. Need to try at home with a proper setup.

I find it hard to feel sorry for Ubisoft, really. I still enjoy playing SCCT from time to time. Due to the retarded Starforce that won't receive an update for Windows versions above XP / 2003 Server, I find myself in the odd position of usi

I know. I read the license. I understand the reason why such restriction exists and it is debatable if the BSD licensed software suffers because it doesn't have an equivalent restriction (eg: Apple/OS X). But for a crowd that's yapping all

The question wasn't about "where's HURD" as in where's the "download URL". I ran most of the Debian flavors. I'm still interested in their progress as well. But the question still remains: if it's so difficult to write an entire userland,

The fact that it uses the licensing, it does not mean that it is a GNU project. Or the fact that it has to bear the GNU/Something name.

The FSF folks, and their followers usually, say that besides the GNU userland (coreutils, libc, etc.) the Linux kernel can't be built without gcc. Of course, there are icc builds, clang builds, although both builds require specific patches,
