RAM is the new Disk [1] – interesting post about using a distributed network of servers with RAM for main storage. The concept is that RAM on another machine can be accessed faster than local disk and that disk performance for contiguous IO has been increasing steadily at a greater rate than random seek performance.

I was reading an interesting post about predicting the results of the invasion of Iraq [1]. One of the points made was that the author rejected every statement by a known liar (which includes all the world leaders who wanted the invasion). So basically regarding every statement by a known liar as potentially a lie [...] I’ve just installed Eran Sandler’s OpenID Delegation Plugin [1]. This means that I can now use my blog URL for OpenID authentication. I’ve also included the plugin in my WordPress repository (which among other things has the latest version of WordPress).

I had configured the DKIM milter on the same line as the milters for ClamAV [...] My Play Machine [1] was offline for most of the past 48 hours (it’s up again now).

[...] I have just installed Domain Key Identified Mail (DKIM) [1] on my mail server. In summary the purpose is to allow public-key signing of all mail that goes out from your domain so that the recipient can verify it’s authenticity (and optionally reject forgeries). It also means that you can verify inbound mail. A weakness [...] I was watching So You Think You Can Dance [1] and thinking about the benefits that it provides to the dancing industry. The increase in public appreciation for the sport will increase the amount of money that is available to professionals, and getting more people interested in dancing as a profession will increase the level [...] |
