But this isn't an optimization that I can learn from, really. I mean, unless I made that same mistake in referencing my sprite images, which seems unlikely. Basically, look at firebug and see what all the connections are coming from and fix

Automatic failover is not directly in the AWS tools, but its fairly simple with some bash scripts and their aut0-scaling features. My setup just involves an autoscaling pool of web front ends connected to a mysql instance in the back and tw

A lot of it is actually just configuration of their auto-scaling mechanism. If a web front end stops working it starts new instances according to the pool minimums and CPU load. There are some custom scripts though, mostly for migrating dat

Actually, EC2 and AWS in general does give a lot of options for automatic failure and redundancy. I have a highly available application running in EC2 and I have multiple instances ready for failover and scripts triggered by monitors to mov

It's definitely a limited outage. My three instances seem to have operated all night with no problem. Two of them are EBS instances.

Make sure the user account that you run flash and adobe reader under is not privileged. I hosed my account once on a bad pdf, but it didn't get past the one user account.

As I am sending out wedding invitations today, this is well timed. Looks like a great idea and I will try it out. By the way - looks like a search and replace for form -> registerForm went awry. The sign up page has inregisterFormation

I think the availability of PHP in shared hosting plans was the main factor. Perl was almost as ubiquitous, although a lot of Windows based shared hosting plans didn't support it. Any host that had MySQL had PHP.

Maybe the fact that this "single photo" is taken from a single vantage point makes it a record?

I use a custom AMI. I started with a base image a long time ago. Since then I have been upgrading and tweaking. There are several tutorials on creating the image. API tools are available for the whole process if you are on an instance-store

When I was a senior in High School I worked evenings at a call center fielding extended warranty repair calls for a major retail chain. There were many calls about older Macintosh computers that would not turn on. Some would give the chime,

Ancient script fonts are always a treasure. I've never known of a good, comprehensive collection, so I've always had my own little stash that I keep adding to. These are really great. I especially love the Anaktoria Greek glyphs.

I guess that PuTTY could be excused since that is more related to the SSH login sequence. It doesn't really matter which SSH tool you are using, that basic annoyance will be there. But when you are using the ssh command from a bash prompt,

I think the point is that it works kind of like Jail, but with the ease of use of sudo. Sometimes you might have to grant access to additional resources, but under many circumstances you can execute untrusted executables or work with untrus

If you need to justify your non-privacy policies with accusations, maybe you shouldn't be collecting so much identifiable data. There are plenty of legitimate, even honorable actions which are threatened by poor privacy policies.

So, now the spelling and style checker has a name that looks like a typo? [edit] OK, it looks like it _is_ a typo. Automattic is misspelled incorrectly in this thread. And no, that is not redundant.

What does this have to do with the URL scheme though? With or without it, secure pages can embed links to other secure pages on other domains. Whether the protocol is explicit in the markup does not change the browsers ability to mix conten

The issue you bring up is valid, but not related to the URL pattern. The URL pattern only saves the web server or coder from substituting the appropriate protocol prefix when serving pages with absolute urls. Whether the url has explicit ht
