I’m sorry to single someone out, but blogs, like theater, shouldn’t break “the fourth wall.” If, as a technology company, you can’t keep the details of a blog migration away from the readers how can I expect you to enable me to do so with services built on your products?

“AT&T says it will implement a 150GB monthly cap on landline DSL customers and a 250GB cap on subscribers to U-Verse high speed internet starting on May 2nd.” @gallifreyan and I were discussing this via teh Twitter, and it sure would be interesting to see the inverse: how many people are paying full price but using very little of their DSL service. AT&T never seems to mention that, it’s always about “abuse” and raising prices or capping things. Personally, I suspect this is them striking back against the Apple TV and NetFlix using a convenient excuse. Get over it, AT&T, you’re a pipe, and a particularly terrible one at that.

“The primary attributes of the Yahoo! design are: 1) 100% free air cooling (no chillers), 2) slab concrete floor, 3) use of wind power to augment air handling units, and 4) pre-engineered building for construction speed.” This, via @etherealmind, is an interesting article. More and more we’re seeing that servers don’t need to be all that cool to function properly, especially if they’re diskless.

I’m getting more and more into PowerCLI as a way to manage my vSphere instances. Examples like these rock. Thank you Virtu-Al!

I turned it on — no problems, but I haven’t noticed any real improvements, either, from a simple user point of view.

Ah, cool. It’s nice to be able to pick from your last 10 vCenter instances.
