@lsiunsuex However much (pity? I don't know what other feeling it is) I feel about IBM I never forget that they're the biggest contributors to the Linux kernel - so I'm thankful for that
I've only just realised that that DB2 dude hasn't even mentioned what version he's running. Also RHEL 6.3's only been out 42 days, does he really expect DB2 of all fucking things to just run perfectly, in just about its most complex configuration - without a hitch and there be a bunch of us all trained up in this comparatively little used product sat waiting to answer his malformed brainfart?
My application ( written by .net ) use GPU to calculate some procedure.
I would like to know, how can I make cloud computing using two PC to use both GPUs?
Do I need special Motherboard and which OS should I use for this purpose.
I am too lazy to look myself, does the stackexchange data browser have a link to the production databases, or is that only updated when they do a dump?
I am wondering if it is time to ask the them(stackex) to force everyone to click past the how to ask page like they do over on stackoverflow for low-rep users.
I try to. I just follow SU and SF. SU questions seem so much easier. Maybe because I answered a few to many of those before I got a lot more critical about what I posted.
Some of my old posts make me cringe. Usually made late at night, full of typos and lacking examples
Many of the typos are fixed by others. I do not mind that. I know English is not my native language and I will make error with "to" and "too" etc. But some post with a typo in each sentence make me cringe. Even after I reread the post twice before pressing the post button.
@Adrian I order a large black coffee, light roast. You deliver me a large black coffee, light roast. You give me shit, I go elsewhere.
I'll admit it IS fun to see the look of irritation when you order "Large black coffee" and then when your friends ask what you got you repeat the order in starbucks lingo.
Context:
I have a Dell SAS6/ir HBA card (pciex8), and several SATA drives. I have two SFF-8484 to 4x SATA cables, which fit correctly onto the HBA (but were purchased separately, new). The manual for the HBA is here. These are the exact cables I bought.
Problem:
I connect the HBA to my mother...
I've also caught them writing my name as 'Adrienne' on the coffee cup. I reached over, took the cup out of their hand, and fixed it. They were slightly offended though.
Yeah - it was worth it. Depends on where you're starting (in career and physical terms) and where you're ending up, obviously, but if I had to do it again I definitely would.
@ewwhite I moved from Rochester NY to Seattle with my now-Ex about 15 years ago. It was definitely worth it though since the job market in Rochester was smaller and more saturated for both our fields.
Chicago is a very good market. NY is obviously bigger - it's a whole other universe, really (assuming you're talking the city) and if you established yourself there you could go in any number of directions you probably couldn't anywhere else (short of London, Tokyo, etc)
so it would mean uprooting her too but if that's not too much of an issue, then its not like you'd be sat at home by yourself in a place where you don't know people...
That'd be what would kill any job offer I might get in NY, I think. Having to triple my current salary just to keep up with the cost of living out there.
@ewwhite I hear you.. a ton of moving parts (no pun intended). Even so it all comes down to a single decision at some point. A huge point here is just if you like NY... it's its own thing. I don't mind visiting it but have turned down jobs there, but others absolutely adore it.
Every once in a while, I run into this frustrating scenario where jobs that I have submitted don't run, even though there are resources available. This time, I think the problem might be related to one of the nodes crashing while jobs were sitting in the queue. I'm not sure how it's supposed to r...
@ewwhite I'd hold them and rent them out, if possible.. if you're going to live in the city there's no way you should be buying for at -least- a year. If you don't like it, you go back to Chicago and your property is still waiting.
what hopelessnoob said. That's why I don't want to see it come over, people who have complex questions but don't want to give up the info are heartsinks
once you love it NY and buy something with a garage (or a parking space) then bring it
but don't end up in a spot where you're dropping $1K+ per month for a short-term parking space, plus the insurance hit when you don't even know if you'd need it to commute to work
I have an IA64 machine that can boot via PXE, and want to boot a live Fedora 17. I do not want to install it, I just want to run as though booting the live CD.
For a server I have (read: am stuck with) a windows XP SP 3 host with a DHCP and TFTP server on it.
Googling has turned up too much in...
He's not helping himself by saying his server is Windows XP. Not just with setting off people's "migrate to superuser" radar, but lets be honest here, with getting the fucking thing to work. Ever.
Never tried it, not for serious business anyway. If I had to count on NFS for something, I'd just use one of the many Unixes out there to host it, for the same reason that if I had to have something on NTFS then I'd put it on a windows box, not Linux with a funky file system option.
You misunderstand me. I'm saying that I'd host NFS on a Unix box, where it might reasonably said to be native, just as if I needed to store data on NTFS I'd use a Windows box.
I know what you're saying but for me, everything in IT sucks given the time and chances to do so. This isn't an attack on one technology choice or another, just an observation about the still relatively immature state of our profession.
And now having been far too serious for chat, I'll apologise for that and bid you all a goodnight as its damn late here and I can barely keep my eyes open
