Yeah that's a general problem. I remember making it larger every single time we've upgraded. Edit: Made it larger now (clear cache). Better?

Oh, seems like I misread his post. Sorry.

You can also do this: $array = array_map(create_function('$a', 'unset($a["CNAME"]); return $a;'), $array);

I never understood why people would want to browse the internet using a gaming console. I'd prefer a real computer any time. Anyways, 0.01% of our users within the last 30 days used PS3 according to Google Analytics.

You must have used a different version than I did. I had no problems whatsoever.

The internet was invented in a time where everybody who was on it would be able to know who everybody else were in real life. If you want to keep people out, use whitelisting instead of blacklisting, otherwise it's impossible. Consider this: Which place do you think it's most likely that some random trouble maker starts a fight? 1) The local pub/nightclub that everybody can get into (possibly with a door man checking against a quarantine list). 2) The closed party requiring invitations and with door men checking for invitations.

If you get a lot of UAC prompts in Vista after you're done setting up your stuff either: a) You're doing something wrong. b) The applications you use are poorly written or old. Normal day to day usage shouldn't require superuser privileges. There is no reason why a game should require you to be admin for instance. That the game devs disregarded that is hardly Vista's fault.

Not definitely. You could just program the proxy to act like a regular client without providing any information that reveals it's a proxy. Even so, banning with the sole reason of using a proxy is ridiculous.

I don't see how it would be possible not sending an IP address though. The server has to send the response somewhere.

Added.

It should still be set to E_ALL on your production server. You would want your errors to get in the error log. If you disable error reporting it'll just fail silently. What you want to do is set display_errors=off so they won't get printed to the screen.

error_reporting(E_ALL); would be a good idea. You would want to catch those E_NOTICEs as well.

If they gave you a problem to solve as part of your interviewing process, it's because they want to asses your skills, not ours.

You didn't even bother rephrasing it. You just copied the problem in. We're not stupid. A lot of people here have been doing a lot of homework over many years so they are able to recognize homework when they see it. There is a reason why students are assigned homework. It's because they are supposed to learn from solving the problem.

Maybe it's time for you to upgrade your OS. Windows has had a desktop application for Windows update since Windows Vista which became RTM about three years ago.

Have a look at this: http://vim.wikia.com/

While it's good to see that it's improving, I'm not overly impressed. It's still way behind its competition, and the competition keeps going on as well. It's not like they'll wait for IE to catch up. By the time IE9 is released FF, Opera, Chrome etc. will also have released new versions.

There is a GUI version for it. It's called GVim.

There is also a vim plugin for Eclipse.

Mine would be Zend Studio, NetBeans and vim (in no particular order).

If you want advanced stuff, you have to move away from PHP book and buy books that deal with general programming stuff. Programming is not just "programming" though. There are many different things you might want to focus on. You could read about algorithms and make your stuff run fast. You could read about things like semantics and lambda calculus to get a better idea of what exactly a programming language is. Maybe things like computability would be interesting, i.e. what is it possible to compute, and can it be done within reasonable time (has a lot to do with algorithms as well). Maybe you would find concurrency and making things run in parallel interesting. Or you might be interested in how to make well designed applications, or how to manage programming projects. There are so many things to programming that it's difficult suggesting an "advanced" book. I might suggest Introduction to Algorithms, but if algorithms aren't really your thing, you might find The Pragmatic Programmer more interesting. Both books can be said to be related to programming, but they are very different books.

We would encourage everybody to introduce themselves here so we might get to know you and "old" members are very welcome to introduce themselves as well.

I've got a VPS. A dedicated server would be overkill for my needs.

That's quite a surprise to me. As I said, it is something I would expect from any web host. Then again, I've never purchased shared hosting.
