05/06   I'm considering using http://firstib.com and am investigating the speed
        reliability and clue of the company. Under http://uptime.netcraft.com
        it says that http://firstib.com is running Microsoft-IIS/4.0 on Solaris.
        I find this hard to believe. What are your opinions of this bank?Thx.

2/5     I like Adobe Flash. When written correctly, it scales along
        with your browser size. It looks consistent on every single
        browser. It is predictable. On the other hand, I'm not a big
        fan of CSS/HTML, which for the most part, look wildly different
        between browsers, and don't even work consistently or
        correctly at times. So why do so many people (like Steve Jobs)

4/19    ORCL u SUNW = ORCL.
        What is Larry Ellison thinking? What is he going to do with a bunch of
        legacy Sun hardware that no one uses anymore, its fading workstation
        customer base, and open source Sun MySQL that doesn't even generate
        revenue? I really don't get all this acquisition business.

1/15    can any serious development be done on OSX that is not *for OSX*.
        i'll grant that ruby on rails has excellent tutorials for the mac.

        \_ What kind of serious development?  If you want to use the standard
           OSX ui then your ui code will be pretty much useless elsewhere,
           but that's why concepts like MVC are so important.  Otherwise

11/29   I'm experimenting with virtualization, and as a poor college student
        I'm wondering what the best alternatives for virtualization are, and
        how best to cut my teeth on messing with non-linux platforms (or I
        guess interesting stuff on Linux would work too). Right now I've got
        FreeBSD7 running on KVM on my home computer (on a Core 2 Quad), and am
        somewhat at a loss as to how to use it. (More details: bridged

        Sun Microsystems Inc. plans to cut up to 6,000 jobs, or 18 percent of
        its global work force, as sales of its high-end computer servers have
        collapsed.  The drastic move announced Friday highlights Sun's
        desperation to cut costs and survive as an independent company. Sun's

        are these days.
        \_ Even GOOG isn't THAT stupid
           \_ Sorry, but WHY would Google do something like that? They
              run 99.2% Linux servers on the backend. They don't use
              Solaris for development. I mean, what does Sun have to

9/24    Why is nscd going crazy?  DoS?
        \- back in the solaris say 2.5-2.6 era, it had both some bugs
           (some malformed nis maps made it go crazy) and architectural
           flaws in the IPC/door+threading mechanism. if you are running
           OS-recent, dunno, but you can trace it.

3/30    Question: I just deleted 60 GB of files from an 80 GB disk. The
        disk activity lights were blinking like crazy and I could hear the
        drive crunch while the data was deleted. This is under Solaris.
        Anyway, I think UNIX uses unlink() when files are deleted. Shouldn't
        it just update the free list on the superblock and call it a day?
        What is all the crunching about?

11/27   I'm using select to do a nonblocking check to see if a single socket
        has anything to read off it.  Problem is, I can have up to 12228
        file descriptors, and Linux fd_set only supports up to 4096.  Any idea
        what I can do about this?  (Or a better solution?) -jrleek

Further information about what we measure and how we measure it is and other factors affecting the monitoring process are 28 available here. The graphs for each site display both the actual times since last reboot (as an X) and a moving average of uptime over time as a solid green area graph. The colour of the X changes in the event of the site switching operating system. A history of the operating system, web server and hosting location is also provided so it is possible to correlate these changes with the uptime of the site. When we are unable to get a valid uptime measurement for a site, a gap will appear in the plots of the raw data points. Queries are made on a daily basis, so the crosses on single server site will appear as a diagonal line moving forward through time until the next reboot. Sites using multiple front end servers with some form of load balancer will show parallel diagonal lines. Daily reports are generated showing the sites and hosting locations with the longest uptimes. Each small 'x' on the chart represents a reading on a particular day. In the first few months we can see two blue lines representing the servers servicing the site. They are blue, which represents Solaris in this example. At June 1999 it looks like there are two Solaris servers, one of which is restarted at the beginning of June whilst the other continues to run until the start of July 1999, when it is also restarted. We can also see at the bottom of the graph the occasional appearance of MacOSX (in pink). From December 1999 there are more clearly three Solaris servers running with different uptimes. Two of them appear to be restarted at the start of April 2000 to run with very similar uptimes. In June 2000 all three were restarted, and the MacOSX system starts to run in parallel as the Solaris systems are phased out, until it becomes the only operating system servicing the site. The current versions of this graph can be seen 31 by querying the site. Explanation: From this table we can see that IP address has remained constant, even though we are detecting several different Operating Systems at this address. This and the graph above confirm that there is more than one type of Operating System in use in parallel. The chart above shows them starting out with IRIX, then changing overnight to Linux, followed by the current HP-UX. Note the scale of the chart, each Operating System ran for more than 50 days before being restarted. Note also the initial value for Linux, at mid March 2000. This had been running for 60 days when the IRIX system was switched over to the Linux one, although it was restarted a few days later before running up to 60 days again. Simillarly the HP-UX system has been running for approximately 40 days before it started to serve the live site. The current versions of this graph can be seen 46 by querying the site.
