I knew a DBA who we had to teach how to save a word document while she worked with us on some stuff.. and she was also the Database & Programming (C++, VB.NET, Java) professor at a local college

Sounds like someone who failed upwards into that position of DBA

The slowest, worst written blogging system in existence is great? Well, I guess some people enjoy herpes too. 😛

lol, bad experience(s), eh?
Out of genuine interest, what's your favourite?

Bad experience? I developed on the WordPress code base in the past, it literally is one of the worst code bases there is. It's extremely disorganised, doesn't properly meet any standard in existence, and even today the code is approached as if it's written in PHP 4.1. WordPress has more vulnerabilities than almost any other equally popular piece of software, and also their crappy API leads to crappy plugins which also have tons of vulnerabilities. The key people in WordPress don't know how to program, that's the primary issue.

I don't have a favourite, they're all shit, and ironically WordPress is the best because it's easiest to get going and has so many options available. It's poorly executed. Turn on query log sometime, a regular page load will probably be about 100 database queries, many of them identical, which screams incompetence. It's sort of funny, WordPress attempts to promote caching tools for problems they themselves have created.

Here's some more detail:

Righto, well that's a good read 🙂
I would imagine a lot of things are just as messed up

All you have to do with a crappy piece of software is add a bunch of themes and then people will accept it.

Wait where you talking about wordpress or windows? 🙂

Yes

It would be funny if the location was known as Hamsterdam.

I wonder how many cloud providers have popped up in the last 12 months

The bigger question, how many have disappeared?

That's the main reason why I was thinking of going dedicated cloud. A beefy server with full control by me, I can spin up those vSwitches without a problem and isolate my VMs behind it.

Wish I had enough cash to spend on that, even at $100 a month it's not too bad, just don't want to outlay that much to start it up.

Digital Ocean is great! One of my favorites!

Here's an interesting read http://inlinehostblogger.com/hostgator-vs-bluehost-vs-dreamhost/

Edit: Now, I'm thinking this might be a sponsored/paid review after reading all of it.

@StrongBad Yes now the issue is resolved

Not in many users, back when Core was first introduced... It's possible/likely that many vendors selling products meant to be installed on Windows Server now work with Core.

What applications are you referring? Most things that run on a server could care less if they are a gui or not as they primarily run as services. MS Dymanics is not supported on Core and I've never done it on core nor would I try it.

Symantec Backup Exec wouldn't run on Core back in the 2008 R2 days. Yes a client would work to Core, but the main install couldn't go on a Core server.

Backup Exec, you mean the product that's always had lots of problems since symantec took it over. and they took years to even get server 2012 support. Backup Exec is a black sheep anymore.

Yep I'm talking 5-6 years ago ....

This keeps sounding more and more like an attack to me.. Maybe they will release details. but if that's the case I doubt they will as to not have more negative PR about it.

This is what I thought but we know these guys well and they responded quickly to us. It was a hardware maintenance window (hence the time) and they had hardware fail during an upgrade.

That caused most of Canada to loose access?
damn..

Two separate instances I think.

Can't wait for the day they create a gateway device!!

Looks like I missed a lot of excitement today.

Looks like all is well.

ConEmu is a great tool. It can take PuTTY to a new level, making it feel a lot better integrated with the desktop.

Oh, okay. Well that's good 🙂

I agree, you probably need Lenovo to help you here.

The Jira products are very good. How do you want to use it?

Yes, but practicing lock picking doesn't require the caveat of "don't break into other peoples' houses." We assume that people know not to do that. If they don't, they shouldn't have lock picks.

I suppose I didn't assume 😛

On a side note, anyone using C@C? I can't paste into the console window. Should I setup SSH first before trying to install this so I can use something like PUTTY?

Console window is a VNC session, it's graphical. You can't paste into those. No different than any KVM solution or OOB Management. Use an SSH session once your system is up and running.
