@jscott The original Postini people had a good sense of humor and were dedicated to a technically superior product. I don't believe any of them still work there.
@ChrisS The Web interface for Postini was a mess, but the product worked great. Google is folding the whole of Postini into Google Apps, so I'm curious where we'll be in another year or so.
Postini for the last few years has been run by bean counters; run into the ground; just like so many other industries where the bean-counters seize control. Google hasn't done a whole lot with them yet, but it'll be interesting to see where they go for sure.

@ewwhite No, we're in "busy season" now, so no changes until May/June. And the shat has hit the fan twice already over slow systems that were planned to be replaced. I'm not amused in the least.
@ewwhite I submitted proposal; they wanted a "Company Cloud Strategy" before we could purchase any new infrastructure hardware. Took me a month to put that together, which is essentially "we're not going to cloud anything; and here's 30 pages of why". They took 2 months to "read" said strategy (I know they didn't read it because they've asked questions that were answered on the first page). Then in November said I could purchase the hardware.
A month isn't enough time to do an overhaul like that. Plus we replaced 1/3 of our laptops. Plus a bunch of employee turnover. Plus a ton of software upgrades and new software too. I've been working 50+ hours just trying to get the rest of it done. There was no way 90% of our server hardware was going to get replaced at the same time. So it's been shelved until May/June.
@ewwhite Our practice insurance would sh*t bricks.
We have a 5 page contract just for customer to send us unencrypted files which MAY NOT contain EHR or 3rd party financial information. We have an additional 12 pages of contract for that stuff.
I think the lawyers have taken over... But I'm not putting my a$$ on the line if someone decided to sue for $2m.
Also, most of our applications are poorly written, and would respond very poorly to latency, like the kind associated with moving resources from on-premise to the cloud.
I just get miffed when they see all this cloud stuff on TV and whatnot and want to know why we can't do all that.... And 1. that cloud stuff doesn't apply to us mostly (we use these ancient LoB applications, some are STILL written in FoxPro 6) 2. It's not my decision anyway as the lawyers/insurance dictates a lot of what we can/can't do.
@SpacemanSpiff We're R2 right now, and SC 2007/2008. I was planning on going Hyper-V 3 and SC 2012, but it'll have to wait until next year at this point.
@ewwhite Yeah, we've had a few Cloud provider talk about this and that... But they've all boiled down to two things: "It's not out fault/problem if the client does something stupid that results in data loss" and latency/ancient applications that weren't built for "cloud" and suck at it.
can your cloud host FoxPro OLE Databases? Worse, will you provide application support if something goes wrong, cause our application vendor sure isn't. =[
@ewwhite I wish we would.... With the amount of money we spend on the sh*t applications we buy, we could easily hire 1.5 developers. How many other companies are in the same position we are?
To pretend to be someone you're not online by posting false information, such as someone else's pictures, on social media sites usually with the intention of getting someone to fall in love with you.
There was a transguy on it recently, all my friends had to text me about it of course. Because you know, just because I'm trans I want to hear about other trans people.
outside chance I might nudge 68k before nye - which would be nominal at best but about the most I've achieved in 3 months bar not missing the vom bucket
i receive the following error when i try to mount my raid 6 on Ubuntu Linux
mount /dev/md3 /mnt/md3
mount: File too large
i have another raid 1 existing (2TB only) and working fine .. any ideas?
@Goatmale I don't see why anyone need be sued for remembering the past. Honestly I think Lego could do the world a healthy history lesson if they produced those kits as Historically Significant Points in Time. It would be in poor taste to market them as toys, or play things. But similar to their Architectural series, which pays homage to famous and inspirational designs of the past, I see no need nor desire to forget the horror human kind has inflicted on itself.
@ewwhite Finally got the server today. Even more strange drama. It actually got diverted to Denver. Nevertheless, it's here, it's awesome, and I already ordered caddies for it to stack it full of my drives that I got for it.
Gonna slam VMware on it and have me some funs.
I would also like to lay claim to taking Chopper from 67,990 to 68,000 and simultaneously pushing this answer of his to 50: serverfault.com/questions/229833/…
