haven't been dusted by the server maids?
Why is it that the cleaning lady at the office feels an urge to remove all of the power cables and wash them in the sink? Well, we can't blame her... After all, we just told her to stay away from the keyboards, and that she did!
Seriously, I actually went to the office one weekend to see why the staging server was down and I found a power cable hanging on my window sill/handle. Sad, very sad...

Thank God I am not the only the only one who has to empty the bit bucket each month, but I am always having to sweep up the heap.

Servers with an uptime of more than a day are:
Configured properly, monitored relatively closely,
non-Winblows, and not a target of any kind of attack(lucky).

Yikes! We had to move some of our servers to a remote location during the WTO riots (fearing terrorist attack) :) We couldn't spare anyone to stay with the servers...and at some point we couldn't communicate with them at all, so we went down to where they are and someone had pulled all the cords out of the wall...they left a note complaining that it was too hot, so they wanted all the machines off. Note was unsigned, luckily. Hmmmmm.

Hehe...we you guys are crazy. Our server room is locked, locked, locked...not even the developers have the code to get in :) And there is no way we'd let the cleaning ppl in there... | [reply] [Watch: Dir/Any] |

mmmmmm circulating dust is gOOOOOd :)
I don't think the cleaning people would WANT to go into MY room :) with all those ethernet/power cables allover the floor and every one of the desks.

Who needs access to the room? That's why they invented
ethernet, isn't it? 8-))

... not suffering ill-effects from an improperly coded perl script containing memory-hogging subroutines & deep recursion.
Ever do that? Deep Recursion? It HURTS. Very painful. You learn very quickly, from the first time. | [reply] [Watch: Dir/Any] |

If you want to see an interesting look into the
old "my server/OS is more stable
than your server/OS" argument; check out the
Uptimes Project at http://www.uptimes.net/.
Based on its metrics the OS w/ the best uptime rates is: Ultrix and
the OS w/ the worst uptime rates is: Lantronix

You see that one sad vote saying that they are bad.
Yup thats me, why you might ask...
Because the longer those other servers are up the less bandwidth I have
But hey that my own lil selfish delusion, so please just ignore :)
