It's not comparable to your automatic espresso machine. Your espresso machines doesn't pack the espresso with conservatives, possibly freezes it for storage, and then claim to make you a fresh cup of home made espresso, which cost

If you bind mount /dev/log of the host into your container, you only run rsyslogd on the host. There's no need to send any SIGHUP to anything in the container.

Probably. You'll have to hack the install procedure to enable swapping before it's being run though. If you're serious about trying this, the fastest path is to install CentOS in a VM on a suitable machine that isn't go

50 square miles is about a 4 mile line of sight range. I have a GSM BTS the size of a normal wifi router(though the antenna is a bit bigger) that can handle that.

Is the undefined behavior applicable at runtime or at compile time ? i.e. Is it undefined behavior if there are code paths that might access an array out of bounds, but at runtime it actually never would ?

That's not particularly relevant, you're thinking at the wrong layer. Seen from a program sitting on top of TCP, there's no such thing as a TCP message/block. You can very well grab a single 16MB chunk with 1 read() call

For cable, the other wifi network is served on a different docsis channel, and shouldn't affect your speed - at least not the part from your router to the other end of the cable.

Heck, even I write mails to my ISP and tell them which interconnect points they're having issues at which a simple traceroute/mtr show me. And I mostly get positive feedback. With a bit more sophisticated tools, you'll get mo

Default to version 3. However you need to check these 2 things: 1. Are the libraries you need available in python 3. (Most are, but there are exceptions). 2. What are you deploying on. There's still a lot of older RHEL/CentOS seri
