  1. @beaucolburn Note that the ellipsis is also the single-character Unicode version, rather than three periods, to save characters. 7:25 PM Dec 9th from Tweetie in reply to beaucolburn
  2. Wow, they don't make moving SSL certs between servers easy. 6:02 PM Dec 9th from Tweetie
  3. @b0j3 Of course not! 5:11 AM Dec 9th from Tweetie in reply to b0j3
  4. New server was just delivered by @ThePlanet. Love those guys. I'll set it up over the next few days. You shouldn't notice the transition. 8:45 PM Dec 7th from Tweetie
  5. @ase_7 No, I do Linux on servers. I don't know how to work OS X Server, and it would probably be very expensive. 11:06 AM Dec 7th from Tweetie in reply to ase_7
  6. @RossCode That's the idea, actually. I always read on iPhone or Kindle — never the computer. 6:15 AM Dec 7th from Tweetie in reply to RossCode
  7. @AdamKalbarczyk No, sorry. 10:04 PM Dec 6th from Tweetie in reply to AdamKalbarczyk
  8. The site should now be fully functional again. I *think* we're in the clear until the new server is set up (probably within a few days). 9:25 PM Dec 6th from Tweetie
  9. In related news, I can't wait until: 1. MySQL implements "live" ALTER TABLEs. 2. Server-class SLC SSDs become practical and economical. 9:18 PM Dec 6th from Tweetie
  10. The ALTER TABLE is done. Final reboot to install a bunch of updates. 9:15 PM Dec 6th from Tweetie
  11. @flpatriot My best guess is that it will finish within the next 15-30 minutes. 8:51 PM Dec 6th from Tweetie in reply to flpatriot
  12. It ends up people have bookmarked a lot of articles. 8:21 PM Dec 6th from Tweetie
  13. Everything else is done except the ALTER TABLE, which is still running. Once that's done, I'll bring everything back up. 8:21 PM Dec 6th from Tweetie
  14. @bobegan The Instapaper web service is currently undergoing maintenance, which prevents it from working from Tweetie for a little while. 6:54 PM Dec 6th from Tweetie in reply to bobegan
  15. I just didn't realize for a minute why I couldn't save an article to read later. Now I have to keep the tab open until I'm done. Strange. 6:43 PM Dec 6th from Tweetie
  16. On the list: a performance-boosting ALTER TABLE (running), yum update everything (running), PHP and APC updates (done), Squid removal. 6:40 PM Dec 6th from Tweetie
  17. Running a web service is like running a store that's open 24/7... you rarely get an opportunity to mop the floor and rearrange the shelves. 6:33 PM Dec 6th from Tweetie
  18. @bkbkbk Should be less than an hour, but is there anything I can get for you manually in the meantime? instapaper@marco.org 6:20 PM Dec 6th from Tweetie in reply to bkbkbk
  19. I just took the site down to perform measures to reduce load. This should ensure smooth operation until the new server's ready. 6:13 PM Dec 6th from Tweetie
  20. In related news, @ThePlanet's free-double-RAM promo is pretty awesome when applied to a 6GB-stock Nehalem server. 5:54 PM Dec 6th from Tweetie
