You're commenting in that very request. Go upvote it if you'd like it to be added... honestly, it's weird it's not implemented, yet. It seems like such a basic thing we need.

Wait... how is it being updated? You said on the 11th that a well documented bug wasn't going to be addressed, so what actually WOULD be "updated" if not a "well documented and tracked" issue that "both a specific developer and a specific support agent said that we would release it in a future release"?

Hahahaha! If you're going to mess with them why not go all out https://blog.g0tmi1k.com/2011/04/playing-with-traffic-squid/ Advanced Network and IT Pranks | Technology or Die

That doesn't seem to be the issue, since my basic select works ALWAYS for certain types of alerts, like on all Nodes, and ALWAYS fails for others, like on all groups Groups. In fact, if you leave the alert message or E-Mail the same, but simply change the alert trigger from all Nodes to all Groups, it will fail, and work…

If you ever get a chance to look at actual enterprise code, it's pretty clear that most "professional" coders also merely dabble without any care given to readability, availability, security or Big O. It's just shockingly bad.

That's actually kind of a good question, if your data center has some big windows you could open on cool days and some fans to move the cool air around. Most don't, and then you have to worry about dust and humidity. Anyway, I suspect that geothermal would be a better (and cheaper) solution for both heating AND cooling in…

Has this happened, yet? I can't figure out how to use these 2 things together...Voted

Pfff... Everyone knows the Jersey Devil is just a chupacabra with a skin condition.

This is exactly the case, especially for older High Availability types. I don't know if it's apocryphal or not, but I'd always heard that Tandem wouldn't release patches for bugs unless they got critical, as it was better to have a known bug you could work around instead of an unknown bug introduced by a patch/new version.…

Obviously it works best when all the vehicles are automated, but even if they're not it seems that people are bad enough drivers that any number of automated vehicles are safer. As far as the terrible drivers and tailgaters, it's hard to compete with people who purposefully drive unsafely. I've always through most people…

I've never worked at any kind of E-Commerce site that might be impacted by Cyber Monday, so I'll just say how I deal with it. Wirecutter and Slickdeals are good sites to see what good deals are popping up. You can kind of watch both all day. Otherwise I'll watch the timed deals on Amazon especially if there's something I'm…

It would be nice if it would just monitor all the certs in the cert store on a server.

traceng and psping will be your new best friends!

There were early chipsets that couldn't do left or right shifts?

How DARE you not include Silverlight (I'm looking at you, SCOM Web Console.... )

Oh, if we're making suggestions, the first real SPAM, IMO, is the Canter & Siegel Green Card spam Commercial Spaming Starts with the "Green Card Spam" (April 12, 1994) : HistoryofInformation.com History of advertising: No 195: Canter and Siegel's Green Card spam | Campaign US The infamous "green card lawyers" Laurence…

Obligatory XKCD

I'm not sure it means anything at all. Just run a bunch of dashboards, Alert Screens, and canned reports through Deep Dream and send the results to him...

12. Please rate the following needs around Application Performance Monitoring on a scale of 1 to 5 where 1 is Not Important and 5 is Very Important. Integration with SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor (SAM) Should I take this to mean how well SAM should integrate with SAM, or is this how well some other APM solution…

It kind of describes it, but it's a little confusing. Setup login.microsoft.com or api.admin.microsoftonline.com or outlook.office365.com or whatever either as NCMP nodes (that'll ping them and show up/down as well if they're pingable) or just as External nodes. Then just apply monitors to it as any other node. You can't…

One of the things "they've" mentioned using are magnetic markers on the road for navigation. Using magnetic paint, or something like a Raised pavement marker ​with RFID tags in them would seem to be an easy, cheap way to do something like that if Optical sensors aren't good enough. It gives the added benefit of only…

Is this THWACKcamp?

(those release notes also seem to be from January of 2016, is that right? If it's still getting minor updates, I'm super curious what they are and what's been done since those 2.2.2 release notes)

Oh, no! You only want to prevent disruption if you're already an industry leader. Even then it's hard to do so without some odd rent-seeking and likely regulatory capture.

Disruptive innovation is a business term that refers to the disruption of the sector, not the users. Disruptive innovation - Wikipedia The thinking is that a sector will go back and forth between a few key players that make incremental improvements in a product. Someone comes along with a brand new product that is better…

Just wanted to point out that Reddit's code base is opensourced, you know... for message boards GitHub - reddit-archive/reddit: historical code from reddit.com

Like ZDoggMD said in his fantastic EHR video (EHR State of Mind | #LetDoctorsBeDoctors | ZDoggMD.com - YouTube ) "[it's] just a glorified billing platform with some patient stuff tacked on" which is exactly the problem with most Medical systems... they were never designed from the ground up to be bedside EMRs, they've just…
