No way!!!

Our political thread activity is way down compared to where it should be with all the political crap happening these days!

For me the last couple of days, the site's largely been down. It's just directs to a blank white screen. Now that's slow!

That's been happening to me as well. When I checked, the problem did not seem to be affecting our sister sites. I need to fire off a note to Daniel to see what's what.

While you at it, ask him about an upgrade to the board, so that when I go back and fix my typos and such they get reflected in all the "quotes" too.

Would you like me to take sight on the site?

Thanks - I missed that. Sounds like Daniel is on top of the situation.

I'm just amazed all this crap works as well as it does.

If you think about it, almost everything related to computers, networks and software are intended to operate at or near their theoretical limits. Can you imagine if bridges, firearms or chainsaws were designed the same way?

What the heck are you talking about.

Most computer systems with exception of processor speed (for the very short window just at release) and wireless transmission are all well below any "theoretical" limits. Most problems are due to poor hardware and software implementations.

Most mechanical systems are much closer to theoretical limits (with appropriate margins designed in).

On the other hand, I am also just amazed all this crap works as well as it does.
You have thousands of different code modules (poorly) written by thousands of different people/teams/companies, running on thousands of different configurations of hardware, designed by thousands of different people/teams/companies; and in general it does what is expected! Now that is just F-ing Amazing!!

Then they're not operating at or near the point of failure. That's why computer systems fail regularly and mechanical systems rarely do.
