Migration complete.

Post #389,859 by malraux 5/26/14 11:37:48 AM 5/26/14 11:39:25 AM Reply	Migration complete. As always, please let me know if you see anything odd. And, 42 wee points to the first person to figure out the major change that was made in addition to the host migration. Note: some of the subsidiary items (non-forum sites, etc) may take a while for me to migrate. Regards, -scott Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson.

Post #389,873 by malraux 5/26/14 1:13:31 PM Reply	We have a winnah! I rewrote the entire PoS in Django over the weekend. 1/5th the code, significantly more functionality (although much of that is on the admin side). Hopefully no more semi-daily restarts due to OOM errors. It's running on half the VPS size the old one was as well. I put rewrite rules in for the old URLs in the hopes no one would notice... ;-) Wee codes, perhaps. I might just implement BBCode or something similar soon. There's a full HTML parser now, however; whitelisted of course for Teh Security. There's a complete Ansible deployment system as well so changes aren't a big deal now. Fully internationalized too, although the only person who would notice the localizations at this point is Peter. Source code to come on GitHub soon as well.

You know, steak vs.. 75 hamburger stuff. Of course... at your leisure. And the Translations I'm talking about are the April Fools day stuff you used to do... The Clockwork Orange, Pie-Rahtey stuff, For Wade it is to LAG... etc. This is part of what I used to have as a signature: iwethey "i" should be blue italics "we" should be "sub" red italics one font size larger to offset the "sub" reduction in size.

Post #390,151 by Another Scott 5/30/14 7:11:07 PM Reply	Don't think that's it. Apparently packets are getting eaten at work. If I ran a GPL traceroute-type thingy (don't recall the name at the moment) I got output that indicated the IWeThey server was 3 hops and 1 msec away. That's obvisously not right... Of course, it could be that that was just a symptom, but it's clearly on my end. In the past, I've had to request that IWeThey not be blocked. I'll probably have to do that again at some point (if I get tired of using it on my phone ;-). FWIW. Thanks. Cheers, Scott.

Well, it could be, but I'll bet a pint that it isn't. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7156835/what-is-an-nscfdictionary https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSDictionary_Class/Reference/Reference.html The general failure of the computing public to heed these rules is why those "remote support" phone scammers do so well. They get people to open the Event Viewer on Windows systems that are working perfectly satisfactorily, and of course it's full of things that are ERRORS and WARNINGS and OMGDEVILWORDS, so why yes I will give you my IP address and get you to log in remotely to "clean up" and bill me $200 for the privilege.

Post #390,136 by Ashton 5/30/14 2:33:03 PM Reply	Thanks, Peter--illuminating. Have scanned both and see they are worth perusing until some grokking gels. Yes, I see that my 'fix' as does seem ~often to STOP the leaking stenographic-pool(?!) is not even a tame wild-goose chase. See that NSDictionary is a cascading class of (apparently multiply-useable?) procedures by a plethora of possible clients, nor Could one 'sleuth' from the stark form of any failure whose error-message involves 'leaking pools' (as can be only 'memory' disappearing--which Shouldn't be.) (I have blind-hopes that something~like 'about:config' shall inhabit the new-New Mavericks/Safari gussying-up..) Ex: When I command 'reopen last-session windows' I want it to load Only minimal stubs/or just links; NOT steal all that memory. I'd also like granularity re that reload command: like several categories maybe by date or name. (Hah..) I 'read' the log files periodically or natch, when there Is a glitch or seeming-one. I have taken your (and others') advice not-to imagine they are revealing [er, RAW] of much that a non-coder can use (this century anyway.. there was a time.. assembler.. CDC-6600.) As to letting ANYBODY (on a cold-call Fershure) into the Family Jewels, I judge that such folk must be those still stuck in, ..where's the 'any' key I'm supposed to strike? ie Before I'd allow remotes of any ilk deliberate access, I'd have to Know Them, their daughters ages' and hobbies and arrest records. If you're not paranoid, you'll be pwned in a trice, I comprehend. At least, though--one Can deduce via real English a few things by comparing 'normal' messages with Weird new ones--at times; at the least: OS X fixing-self? or blaming Safari specifically. This makes OS X a marvel of clarity compared with ..you know. Thanks again for another useful clarification.
