If you start calling things like varnish a web server you'll confuse a lot of people. You generally call them according to what role they serve in your stack, and for Varnish and at times Nginx, that is a reverse caching proxy.

Drupal works flawlessly with Nginx[1], and there is little magic involved. You even have good handling of private files, permission and such. There's only a few modules that require changes to the default ".htaccess" (basical

In my city they tried to install something similar, yet less invasive, ie. you could jump over them. But it was removed pretty much just weeks after being installed. It didn't satisfy the fire department if there had to be an evacuatio

Doesn't seem like hubiC exposes a truly S3-compatible API, which is sad given that it seems to be based on OpenStack Swift.

This is mostly just quackery and non-science, they keep repeating the same old stuff that the government is keeping us in the dark, and that the health effects of Fukushima is far greater than it actually is.

They are one less factor needed in order to access an account that has 2FA enabled, so in that regard, I consider them less secure. You're right about the part where they cannot hijack your account, but change data? Sure they can. They

Just curious, why would you want Application-specific passwords? They're far more insecure and still have access to all your Google services. Application-specific password would only make sense if Google actually let you limit access t

When you make bold statements you generally have to back it up with some evidence. I find it really hard to believe that anyone has the level off accuracy and speed that you get from a good keyboard/mouse combo. It is a reason that con

This is what vagrant was built for, so that you can run a full development environment locally and then push changes to staging/production server using git (and hooks, if you want to automate the process), when you have something worki

Because we have git, and with hooks also automatic deployment. Seriously, this is a really bad idea, and the only reason I can find to why we don't see many tools like this is because they break stuff. All the time.

You are talking about two different things here. Memcached is a memory store, while APC is a opcode cacher. W3 seems to be a plugin for Wordpress that serves pre-rendered pages using some mod_rewrite trickery.

Yep, and as bonus you get proper cache invalidation, ESI-support and a lot of other really nice features that you probably need when you start having these kinds of issues. Around 30 lines of VCL would replace all of this and make it even f

You could do exactly the same with nginx or Varnish acting as reverse caching proxies. Cool hack, but nothing I would ever run in production when you have all the other good tools at your disposal. Tools that are proven and that actually sc

I'd say you waste time taking a conscious decision between 64-bit and 32-bit, there are few good reasons to not just go with 64-bit, and dwelling on it just wastes time. Do you have any metrics to support your claim that 32-bit Debian is fa

Some providers give you the choice, and let you choose if you want unfiltered access or firewalled, just by changing APN. For some services, like a backup link to your internal network, it's immensely useful.
