I'll second this -- grahamburger is spot-on with his advice. I've been doing nearly the same on and off since 2003.

I've always had a problem with Governments(who don't pay tax on their profits) operating in environments where they may compete directly with private industry(who must pay tax on their profits) We have two cities nearby that run t

Several years ago(before it was against ToS) I scraped data from a county clerk website and did some mild analysis on it. I won't say what I was looking for, but I did find several correlations between case disposition (charges dropped

I disagree. Navigation non-linearly through electronic versions of texts is much easier than having to fan through the pages to look for that one phrase or code snippet you saw 3 months ago. Search and bookmarks...I've seen this in PDF

Can we get a list of swimming pools and lakes and ensure there are no pokestops near them as well? I'm pretty sure far more children drown in bodies of water than are harmed by sex offenders on parole.

I understand "war" has a different set of rules, but, historically, those rules have applied to specific circumstances of engagement. Targets were well known and understood. In a "war" where every person on the planet is

Yep...rights to women as well. So historically "all men" and the "rights endowed by their creator" has always been loosely interpreted to fit the ideals and requirements of the leaders at that time. Which is morally wron

What I don't understand is... In the Constitution of the United States are these words "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Right

There's always a better way to do things. The problem is selling that better way. If they had done things the way you say, their price point would have been higher, while everyone else who didn't do it is lower. I've been in

The Obama administration disagrees, and argues that since the records have already been submitted to a third party (Oregon’s PDMP) that patients no longer enjoy an expectation of privacy. This follows the same(so far, legally

I left after about 6 months. This was around 2001. They also got in trouble with the LEC(and law enforcement) for using the LEC copper to interconnect their equipment between buildings. It was a common practice for them to tone out pairs in

I cut my teeth at an "ISP" that would order a business DSL line at a MDU/Apartment complex, run it through a Linksys router, then over the phone wiring using 2-wire "HomePNA" devices and charge each person $30/

Yea...this is a problem with them. I recently spent several hours trying to implement BFD...only to find out it's broken on CCR, known to be broken, and won't be fixed any time soon [1] But to be fair, I've run across similar

That still doesn't define a requirement for >1gb/s in a single flow. A flow is a single connection, such as downloading a file from a single IP address. When you download a single file from multiple sources (such as with Bittor

I haven't spent much time in the "Quickset" page...I learned it before they had that function and it never seems to do what I want it to. Probably is handy for some basic configurations though.

What ISP needs a single flow to exceed 1gb? I would venture to say most non-storage networks don't have single flow requirements in the Gb/s. I can buy 3 CCR routers and run OSPF/BGP/etc... on them to provide redundanc

I was not aware they were marketing in that direction...imo they shouldn't be, for the reasons listed by others. The UI just isn't quite intuitive enough for the average-joe that's expecting something like a Linksys/Beld

Mikrotik routers are not designed to be a consumer router. The average consumer would pull his/her hair out trying to configure one. Providing network attached storage is generally not a feature requested of anything but the full-consu

I have personally deployed about 100 Mikrotik routers and can say they work well for what they do. They're not designed to be a home router and the learning curve if you want to use one like that would be similar to someone without Cis

Fun fact: Many financial institutions use the last 4 of your SSN as identity verification. If you're a business, it's the last 4 of your FEI/EIN. I know at least in FL, this is publicily available at sunbiz.org So with the ac

I agree I left out a lot of incidentals, but it wasn't meant to be an all-encompassing analysis, just some napkin numbers. The $3000/month isn't for someone with a deep and good understanding of network security -- that shoul
