Virtual Iron From: Brian Phillips TSF Mike DiPetrillo THE BLUEST BUTTERFLY Charlie Jane Anders Joelen Emilly Orr Sys-Con UK Jeff Atwood Lance Margaret Lewis Dorothy Hernandez Database Journal /23599264

Brian Phillips thinks that the problem is:
Richard Whittall | June 10, 2009 | 8:18 pm Yay final liveblog awesomeness! But I m afraid you ll be distracted from the task at hand it d be like violating the prime directive.

TSF comes with a new idea:
Lewis, Peter1994 Here s to the Techies Who Lunch. New York Times, August 27.Ministry of Culture, "Survey of China Internet Café Industry." Internet Cafes China. 2005. Ministry of Culture. 6 Mar 2009

While it may be true, Mike DiPetrillo thinks:
en : Anyone or know someone selling a DINING TABLE & CHAIRS or COFFEE TABLE?! Name the price. :) 07/02/09 06:14pm

In contrast, THE BLUEST BUTTERFLY replies:

Charlie Jane Anders brings some great news:

Joelen comes with a new idea:
This week's Foodie Freebie is POPPIN! Click on the logo for details! Spanish Chefs & Cuisine Deadline: July11th View previous Chef Spotlight Dinners we've done here!

Emilly Orr gives a bit of an idea about it:
Famous Last Words - My Chemical Romance Feel So Numb - Rob Zombie Fighter - Christina Aguilera Half Jack - Dresden Dolls

For this purpose, Sys-Con UK suggests:
PLATINUM PLATMIN LIMITED POLARIS MINERALS CORPORATION POLAR STAR MINING CORPORATION PORCUPINE POTASH POTASH CORPORATION OF SASKATCHEWAN INC.

But TSF says that's not all:
Results/ConclusionFrom these findings, the conclusion is that cyberspace is gendered. There was no dispute over the question of whether stereotypes existed in game. All interviewees had agreed that there were basic differences between genders in terms of attitudes and actions in real life as well as in virtual worlds. The fact that there were only urinals available at a café that B had attended testifies to the deficiency of female presence in cyber cafés, and perhaps an allusion to the lack of real life females in game. In accordance with the interviews, female avatars or characters are seen as weaker, but strong female avatars are assumed to be male in real life. In Weihua Wu, et al. s article, they study online marriage on Chinese gaming servers. An intriguing point is that there are many players that opt to get married due to the fact that in China, marriage comes with a heavy responsibility that the younger generation does not want to de al with yet; however, in game, they can choose to get married to other players and do what they are afraid to do without bearing any of the real life burdens. In a similar way, a person that feels the need to become uninhibited can do so within the confines of virtual reality, rather than be ostracized in actual reality; for instance, choosing to detach oneself from your real life gender and playing an avatar of the opposing sex. Wagner James Au interviewed a male player of Second Life who plays a female avatar: In real life, I'm clearly attracted to women. In Second Life, it gets shady. I see my avatar, Jade, and I'm compelled to play a female role.... because it's what she's supposed to do, I guess. I dunno. (2005). This gamer s experience playing a gender not his own shows how the boundaries of gender are blurred once the line is crossed.

In response, Sys-Con UK claims:
LIHIR GOLD LTD LITHIUM LME WAREHOUSE LEVEL LOGAN RESOURCES LTD. LONDON METAL EXCHANGE (LME) LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE

Still not being convinced, Jeff Atwood replies:
For a search engine (pre-google days) we migrated from a large 32cpu SGI machine to 70+ commodity servers allowing us to cancel the annual maintenance costs that were easily in the mid six figures (at the time). We tried to go horizontal with a J2EE engine, but found it licensed per server and found horizontal scaling limited by license costs alone.

Lance has another idea:
Summary: All in all, the hype exceeds the practical substantially, which is a shame.Virtualisation, Automation and the cloud are useful tools that any size business can and should in our opinion be considering. Everytime your business encounters a physical restriction it is time to consider one of these methods. If your servers disk drive is getting full, can you use a cloud based storage service (like our cloud backup software) to create a new drive with unlimited capacity?  Need a new server, then consider creating a virtual server. Have an application that is straining a server? Consider cloud based processing power perhaps?

But Margaret Lewis has a different opinion:
We are now in a more mature phase of virtualization - the Yang phase - with the opposite phenomena of the consolidation of virtualization companies, projects, and technology. Early on Microsoft bought Connectix with Hyper-V being the fruit of this union. Parallels bought Virtuozzo and extended itself to the world of Windows and Linux. And more recently we witnessed Oracle s pending acquisition of Sun Microsystems and now Virtual Iron .

Jeff Atwood thinks that the problem is:
- For horizontal scaling you'll likely need external load balancing, which is another piece of hardware, and another thing to power, cool, and manage.

Dorothy Hernandez also takes into account the following fact:
Why did you want to participate in this virtual cookoff? I love to cook and I also love a good challenge, so when I read about the cookoff in the RedEye on the way to work one morning, I knew I had to "tryout."  I like to pair flavors in interesting ways and will try almost anything, so I thought this cookoff would be a great way to do more of that!
