Re: iOS 7 update traffic
My iPhone4 was about 600MB IIRC. My iPad mini was about that. I have about 7 iDevices between everyone in my immediate family. FWIW not a single one has actually received the notification yet. I've only manually done my 2 devices. I'm waiting to see how long it takes before I get the 'official' notification of an update on the others.

Re: iOS 7 update traffic
Apple actually tries to rate-limit the notifications to prevent this, but you can just manually go check and hit the upgrade button yourself. It's pretty well-known that Apple likes to release ~10am, so tens (hundreds?) of millions of users did just that. Since this update is available for all iThingies made in the last 4-ish years that means a lot of extra traffic. On Thu, Sep 19, 2013 at 7:13 AM, Justin M.

I don't know how large the update was (maybe a few hundred MB per device?), but I guess everyone got the notification or their devices started automatically downloading around the same time. The vast majority of the traffic here (large .edu) happened between about 1 and 5 PM yesterday. jms

But how do you get those folks through the HR process to you, so you can decipher their skill/work ethic level? What can the HR person ask to find out if someone has these qualities? OSPF LSA type questions will not help. Don't get HR to do that sort of screening. They suck mightily at it. I lack any sort of HR department to get in the way, and I'm glad of it -- I don't see the value in having someone who doesn't know anything about the job get in the way of finding the right person for it. Sure, get 'em to do the scutwork of posting job ads, collating resumes, scheduling things and sending the lolz no! responses, but actually filtering? Nah, I'll do that bit thanks. If you have to have HR do a filter call, make it *really* simple, like What does TCP stand for? -- sadly, you'll still probably filter out half the applicants for a senior position... I've noticed a strong correlation between people who don't know what acronyms stand for, and competence. People who don't know anything try and figure out what the acronym stands for - people who want to understand things see it as just a place holder. [...] Maybe it's more significant to ask what the difference between TCP and UDP is. Yes, the difference between TCP and UDP is a much better question to ask, but having HR assess and act on the answer to the question is a whole hell of a lot harder. In many ways, *that's* the tough bit of finding a good screening question. snip Indeed. I was once filtered out of a sysadmin job at a big search engine company. They asked questions like: What system call does the ls command make? I didn't know, but said you could read the source or strace to find out. They asked me to describe what ARP is. I basically talked about what an ARP table is and went into detail about who-has requests for building the table etc... and more questions like that. They seemed lost and didn't seem to know what I was talking about. It was at this point I realized that I was talking to an HR screener. The conversation was awkward from this point on as I struggled to attempt to guess what might be on the piece of paper as The Right Answer. Needless to say I didn't hear back. Was I what they were looking for? Maybe, maybe not. But I was screened out before either of us could find out. Just as well, I'm much happier where I am now. :-) Finding good interview questions *in general* isn't all that hard. With a good senior candidate my interview questions could just be bringing up problems I've recently solved or am currently wrestling with, and having a 30 minute conversation on the problem. I'll get a very good idea of someone's domain knowledge and problem-solving skills by doing that. But there's no way I can ask HR to do that, because they don't know how to assess the answer, and as previously demonstrated (fragmented disks, indeed), you can't have HR act as scribe and relay the answer to you, because they'll get it wrong, and the interesting bit is the *conversation*, not the canned single-shot answer. Definitely. I like the describe difference between UDP/TCP question. Another fave of mine is Give me a list of various acronyms and its associated port and give them HTTP/80 as an example. Many interviews end shortly after this one. That's my motivation for asking a question as inane as What does TCP stand for? -- it has an overwhelmingly obvious answer that can be verified in a second or two by someone who really doesn't know anything about what they're asking. Give a candidate 10 of those sorts of questions over the phone from an HR drone, if they score 8-or-better (for instance) they pass and you get to see their resume. That is, of course, assuming your organisation is so screwed up that they won't let you at candidates directly (which is still my preferred option -- leave HR to do the paperwork). +1

Ehh, bad perl is still more readable than good APL. At least I can reformat the perl! :-) In my experience bad perl usually consists of using system() a lot to run shell commands and read the input. Creative well-written perl, now there's something unreadable and unmaintainable! :-) -B

PFsense, (being freeBSD-based, comes under your other category) It uses the OpenBSD-based pf firewall, with a web-based GUI for almost everything (except maybe console resets). works for me in several locations, some `heavy and high`. Looks interesting. Will give it a shot, thanks! Great new book on pfsense as well. http://www.reedmedia.net/books/pfsense/
Re: Problem from Comcast Network to The Planet

Our mail server is hosted in-house on a comcast business connection. IP address of our server is: 173.13.45.23 Customers mail server is: 69.93.203.243 I cannot telnet to port 25 on their server, and they cannot telnet to port 25 on ours. If I try to connect to their mail server from a different network such as my home internet connection, I can connect. We do not do any firewalling that would block this in anyway. We were able to send and receive email to them when we used Qwest for our connection, before we switched to Comcast. Comcast has said the problem is not on their end because it times out at The Planet. The Planet doesn't have much interest in speaking with me, because I'm not their customer. Not sure what to do at this point. Can you hit the submission port? (587) -Bryan

Re: Linux Router distro's with dual stack capability
would pfsense work for you? On Wed, Feb 10, 2010 at 4:12 PM, Blake Pfankuch bpfank...@cpgreeley.com wrote: Anyone have some insight on a good dual stack Linux (or BSD) router distro? Currently using IPCop but it lacks ipv6 support. I've used SmoothWall Express but not in some time and not sure how well it works with IPv6. Not looking for something huge, just something for the equivalent of a small branch office. Site to Site VPN support and NAT translation capability for a few public IP addresses to private addresses are the only requirements. Public or private responses are welcome! Thanks!
