Good morning, all.

Dude, i'm more excited about this than you are! :weee:
We have a competition then. :D

So one of our sales ppl called in sick today & guess who ran into him, holding hands with his flooze gf? I guess he was aching to get caught.
Oooh. Sounds like someone has gained extortion points at the office. :weee:

you moved to france?
:lol:

Oh so tragic and oh so true. (I know this, having sat through a day of meetings in my former company's Paris office once.)

Just received word I rocked my last exam! :weee: That was my final bachelor test, now all there is left is the final lab assignment. Get innnnnnnn!
Congrats, Ken!

Bachelor test? Lab assignment? Get in?

Are there tranny hookers involved here? (Sorry, I have to ask.)

Just had some noodles in honor of the Great Flying Spaghetti Monster.
I recognized your new av right away.

Two Weeks, what is it in? Post-Structuralist feminism and it's relation to Celtic Revivalism?
Pffft. If you're going to make up confusing fields of study where you can readily be considered the de facto expert, why not Post-Industrial Cambodian Feminist Cryptography?

Greg, let's talk shop. I learned about the X-Sendfile header in apache today, you know it? It's goooood.
That's mainly about downloading files (with file resume, etc.) bypassing the usual HTTP processing and leveraging local memory caching, etc., via the web server, yeah?

Static downloads are optimal, needless to say. But if you need an indirect via your webapp layer to do auth you can basically do get_file.php?file=veryprivate.txt, check the cookie, and if it's good you propagate X-Sendfile: veryprivate.txt to apache which will then serve the file as if it were a static download, with ranges that allows resume and all the rest. It's very neat.

Cool. So you get a lot of efficiency even in the authenticated case. :tup:
