The rainforest is substantial, but it only produces about 20-30% of the oxygen that we breathe, the ocean and all of the life within it form a machine that processes most of our CO2 and CO into the O2 which we breathe. A frightening amount

Noone has really been able to knock new relic for the ubiquity, cross-language support, etc.. New Relic's server monitoring is a toy, however - that's why it's free.

While this story may be true, it doesn't quite support 'There are easier ways for the government to make money.' The CIA is very different from local law enforcement agencies, and they don't just rely on the material sup

The previous poster clearly does not understand that ZFS on Linux is essentially a native port with very careful dancing around licensing borders.

Unfortunately absolutely nobody agrees what net neutrality means. EDIT: I can be more specific. People have been constantly talking about Netflix and Verizon in the past year with regard to Net Neutrality, but in fact Netflix was being ask

It would be a pain in the ass, some sites might pull it off, most wouldn't. There's no network configuration-based solution as simple, straightforward, and noninvasive as a JS overlay.

While I agree that etcd and config management systems do not solve the same problems, and esp the same way, the use of etcd by all of your services does enable your examples. For instance, there is a tutorial on using vulcand as your http l
