Hehe this really cracked me up... funny thing when I had my first 300 baud modem and apple ][+ computer back in the day we used this software called ascii express to communicate. My "special" name in the community we'll call it was DEADLOCK. Oh and I remember that Rutger Hauer movie! They were in this high tech prison…

Quantum communications with the weird entanglement is pretty awesome stuff... it'll be the new unbreakable crypto.

I wanted to make sure I got all the questions... I think a couple of them don't register you've done them before this week.

Also you can add a plugin to Firefox that expands all shortened URL's to the actual URL.

With VM and container resources I'd say memory is what almost ALWAYS runs out before I run out of vCPU's or cores.

You know you get one voucher for being an MVP?

I've been considering testing LEM... I'm not sure it can handle to amount of security event logs I have coming from windows machines though with all the security relevant objects we must track. I literally get Billions of events over time.

The python is a great thing to learn better!

No contest here... Spinal Tap 4 the win!

WPM works good for the "top layer" of the appstack!

I am glad more focus is on cloud, ASA insight is coming, perfstack, appstack, and netpath. A lot of pressure is coming from the competition right now and many are focused on things these solutions provide. I'm in trade study right now at work on monitoring. The biggest area that needs more improving is on the installer. It…

The upgrade to 2019.4 on this information system (which is a bigger one) went well. I'm monitoring this SEM from Orion over snmpv3 so hopefully if /var get's big again I'll know it. I'm hoping this will just magically make this tomcat issue just disappear. I like the new interface and I can imagine doing more things with…

I try to leave the development to the developers even though I have a background in some languages. It's not my daily thing so I really can call myself a full time developer... and like you suggested... it may be best to leave the programming to the developers that do it all day every day!

Just got a new 5 burner grill last week on July 4th sale... I was considering infra-red grill but after asking some others that bought one they all said... DON'T DO IT! I usually use gas grill because it's easier but I do like a good charcoal grilled steak with maybe even some wet down wood added to the fire to enhance the…

Yep we have a huge cluster of UCS servers divided up into normal enterprise, isolated enclaves, and restricted enclaves. I install new non-release software in one of the normal enterprise enclaves to try stuff out or test. I wish I had more time to just experiment but it's pretty good.

The idea of putting Ops at the end of everything really hasn't created a big change in what we are doing. Perhaps there are some changes along the lines of agile in speeding up some cycles but the things we do haven't really changed... just the names for them have.

Those were a little wait what? Then is makes sense.

It's pretty bad.

Lol I remember that painter dude from PBS!

The same exact thing happened to us in the beginning. It seemed like a good idea to take snapshots all the time until later realizing there were real drawbacks to having them strung all over the place. A couple ways to consolidate the snapshots from command line and GUI: Snapshots of VMs are not detected in Snapshot…

Seems like good idea!

That would be like shooting pieces of his own kind out his shotgun o.O!

Yep exactly what I mean... to me growing up in the midwest Ohio/Kentucky Bourbon is whisky... and all the Irish Whiskey is just another name for scotch. I guess I'm more like your wifes friend... the smell of scotch makes me ill. I used to be a big cigar smoker and smoked the best... it often came with some kind of rare…

This would be handy. I think you meant SWQL.

I need a new sleeve and my stack needs an online backup option!!!

Also all the exploit toolkits make it easier and easier to hide things so they don't look like malware to all the fiilters etc.

July 11th was tricky I had to dig for the answer because A and C both seem to benefit from the AI!

July 2018 Mission Accomplished Survey

I guess this also assumes every alert is going to the same smtp server then? For most people this is probably the case but I'm sure not all.

I was soooo close to finally reaching 30 too...
