Pretty unlikely. Outages are common, especially in this above average summer, due to higher transformer load and temps. Ever since the freeze, people who have even planned outages, refer to them as “rolling blackouts”. ERCOT is a pretty op

I think the more interesting thing here is how less popular of search term perl/php has become. I really can't find a language that is on an upward trend. Why would people be searching for these terms less over time? EDIT: Nevermi

It actually looks like they withdrew their A records. anl.gov is having the same issue (Though strangely enough, not mirror.anl.gov, so thankfully my systems can still update.)

The idea is that they can cut off access to non-Level3 customers any day if they wanted to, and they'd be within their rights to do so. The proper choice would be to use Google DNS or OpenDNS which are provided as a service to the publ

This security loop hole has been there for years, they haven't fixed it since I last toyed with it a long time ago.

"... I'll note simply that FunnyJunk does not appear to have a notice ofdesignation on file with the Copyright Office." If true, that's pretty bad- that means that FunnyJunk's safe harbor status can be challenged (17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(2))

I am still feeling burned by how quickly my zv6000 disintegrated. (And anecdotally, how poorly they treated some of the people I know who had malfunctioning laptops from bad nvidia gpus). I'm not interested in buying HP products anymore, I'

No language has a doom sentence on it- they're just tools. There's some languages that are definately more often found in certain "cog-ish" code production companies, which might be what you're referring to. The best thing you can do for yo

It's interesting they're disallowing 008. I work at a popular webhost, and we've had problems with this crawler too (It's distributed, and can crawl things a little too fast).

Sublime Text 2 is really great- it's even built on Python. If OP wants the frilly stuff, I recommend PyCharm http://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/

You can do this fairly easily with Apache and symlinks, there's an issue with SymlinksIfOwnerMatch that people can circumvent if they're clever...

Does GoDaddy use Fantastico? I know we recently patched our servers for http://www.1337day.com/exploits/16512 Not sure if GoDaddy did (or needs to) do the same.

By the way, simply put, load averages are computed based on the number of processes in contention for the CPU, and are calculated based on a single CPU average. So, a load of 70 means 70 processes were in contention of the CPU, meaning the

A common way is just script vulnerabilities, allowing execution of arbitrary code. I work at a popular webhosting company, and I've seen cases where apps will execute PHP code inserted as a sooofed User-Agent, POST data, and other weird pla

Personally, I have a dedicated server, there's plenty to be had out there for a relatively cheap price. ($50ish range, they're out there, I'm hosting at http://securedservers.com ) A dedicated server is a good opportunity to learn about se

The CIA Factbook cites the 2010 estimate for GDP at $74.48 trillion: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/... Also of interest, another number close to this is the world's stock of broad money, at around $75.86 tril

It's more like a reverse proxy. [1] You point your domain to their DNS, and then they cache your site on their CDN, reducing loading times and CPU consumption. It also uses data from Project Honeypot to serve captchas and links to popular v

Actually, you guys are both right. Speaking from experience (administrator at a popular webhosting company), he likely a lot of his rootkits macroed, so he can just login to the box, alt+1 (or whatever he has his macro set to) and then pop
