TTL tells servers and clients in the wild how long to hold on to a query result. You'll want to set this very high if you expect a nuclear war soon. There is no push notification for this. Push notifications occur when the primary is H

The reason it looks natural is because it's new. If it gets popular, it'll be commodified and it'll be the same "radio station bumper" sound you've always heard. As your wedding DJs plays the Brad Pitt, "I

One neat way of retaining that control is running your own SOA(s), but getting robust secondaries and listing those in WHOIS so that they take all of the wild queries. Then you just work with your little SOA and everything just propagates

Your comment and the post and threads in general are making me chuckle, having just spent the last half hour reading this post, for no particular reason, from a few months ago about the transformation of racknut-and-perl roles like neteng a

Who allows the third-party sellers to set up shop there? Relatedly: Amazon doesn't provide a way for you and I to report price gouging.

There are all kinds of $1000+ books on Amazon because they're out of print with only one available used. I'm pretty sure it's a default feature of seller management software, automated as "juice the price if mine is the

Why do the opinions of hypothetical groups of people carry any weight? Make your arguments in concrete terms, like: Trump is full of shit whether people agree with him or not, and if Trump does try anything it is going to have so much spl

I think this is only if the unspaced period is in the first term. Having only recently moved to 100% omnibar from URL + Search bars I was momentarily annoyed by what you mention, but I soon realized it really doesn't come up very often

I don't think postpaying is a necessary model, there could be a popup saying you don't have a subscription and to read the (full, probably) article is $0.05, would you like to pay this? I would almost certainly click "yes&quo
