    Upcoming server migration

    I wanted to give folks a heads-up that I'll soon be migrating from our existing server to a newer, more powerful server. This is prompted in part by the recent downtimes (including tonight) and also by a general desire to increase server capacity.

    To do this, I'll be shutting down the forums and performing a full backup before migration. Once migration is complete, I'll update the forums-closed message to point you at the new IP address of the server while DNS changes propagate.

    I plan to work on this migration some time in the next few days--ideally tomorrow night if I have time, but it might push out into the weekend.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.

    Sure you can, just pry off all the key tops, and rearrange into the order WQREYTIUPO
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
