Why was youtube down? A technical explanation of a similar event that happened in 1996 Adrian Chadd adrian at ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au Wed Aug 16 22:53:07 WST 2006 Previous message: [lore] From the bowels of internet comes a selection of ... Next message: [lore] Murphy's Law Strikes Again: AS7007 Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] Applications of Murphy's Law: The "AS7007 Incident" Adrian Chadd It was an average day in 1997. The Internet, fledging compared to today's standards. Internet operators (mostly!) trusted one another. SMTP servers would be open relays; a number of open web proxies and anonymous dialout servers were available. People were worried about running out of IP space. Network Operators were worried about the CPU on their routers being taxed dealing with a full routing table of ~45,000 entries. Then, suddenly, the internet sto...
Java Final, Finally and Finalize Final: A method or variable that can't be overridden Finally: A block of code added after try / catch block. This block is guarnteed to execute even if due to a problem method returns from the catch block Finalize: a method which is your destructor method - code that's run to clean up objects that are no longer required. For example, objects which are memory cached would be flushed back to the disc in your finalize. (There is no guarantee that this will run or "when" will it call the garbage collector)
Well-known and less-known HTTP Request Methods (source wikipedia and www) HEAD (less-known) Asks for the response identical to the one that would correspond to a GET request, but without the response body. This is useful for retrieving meta-information written in response headers, without having to transport the entire content. Lots of bookmark management plugins use it for checking if the url still exists or not. GET (well-known) Requests a representation of the specified resource. By far the most common method used on the Web today. Should not be used for operations that cause side-effects (using it for actions in web applications is a common misuse). Idempotent ... See 'safe methods' below. POST (well-known Submits data to be processed (e.g. from an HTML form) to the identified resource. The data is included in the body of the request. This may result in the creation of a new resource or the updates of existing resources or both. PUT (less known) Uploads a repre...
Begin forwarded message: From: James Gosling Date: August 24, 2007 8:16:58 PM PDT To: Jonathan Schwartz Subject: How was Java named? The story goes like this: We needed a name. We had been using "oak" (which was selected essentially randomly by me), and while the team had grown attached to it, the trademark lawyers ruled it out. We had lots of email debates about names, but nothing got resolved. We ended up in the awkward position where the #1 thing stopping us from shipping was the name. Our marketing lead knew someone who was a "naming consultant" (I don't remember his name, but he was great). We could neither afford the price nor the time of a conventional product naming process. He agreed to do something rather odd, but effective and quick: he acted as a facilitator at a meeting where about a dozen of us locked ourselves in a room for an afternoon. He started asking us questions like "How does this thing make you feel?" (Excited!) "What else m...
