Huh. There's a pop-up that blocks the text, and I couldn't even dismiss it from full screen - I had to zoom out first. And I couldn't leave a comment there.

The times on the left, standalone, are Pacific. In the text on the right, UTC. Edit: uh, wait, this is wrong. It's edited (possibly) or I'm just bleary-eyed (more likely).

Huh. It's a rough sketch, from 2011. There's no follow-up I can see.

Huh, by the name I guessed it was an emulator, and Arduino seemed underpowered for that.

Isn't the dislike for external recruiters? They can be wildly variable in quality - spamming by keywords, regardless of geographic areas. And the good ones may overprepare, asking questions that the company won't. Edit: oh yea

To be perfectly clear, I did a double-take because I mis-read it the first time, I'm probably not alone on this, and I'd consider it an ill-advised name. You could consider me oversensitive, but would you choose Niggardly for a br

At these scales, bandwidth to disks isn't trivial - at a gigabyte a second, it would still take over 130 days to build the checksums for the torrent. I don't think Bittorrent fundamentally allows multithreaded torrent generation.

You could use floppies to transfer terabytes of data, but that doesn't make it a good idea.

They hit 10 petabytes two years ago* - which is 10000 terabytes. Torrents don't really cut it at that scale. * http://blog.archive.org/2012/10/26/10000000000000000-bytes-a...

I'd suggest putting up nginx as a reverse proxy to Apache. I had a situation sort of like this; under heavy load, Apache would have issues with semaphores that was hard to deal with. (Someone had handled the OOM-killing with a watchdog
