Random thoughts from the mind of Marcus Ramberg

Shoo, you should not be here, go to my new blog instead.

This journal is pretty much dead.

If you're interested in what I am doing these days, I suggest reading the company blog for my new company Nordaaker Ltd that I started with Arne Fismen to contain our web apps, which include iusethis.com, iwatchthis.com and phiary.com.

With the winter coming to Oslo, it's dark before we leave work, and it feels a bit depressing, but the great sunsets gives a little consolation.

11:38 < RandyWalker> what's wrong with php? :O
12:09 < hachi> I mostly have issues with the syntax and extendability of it.
From my point of view it's a language that does a few things
well, but when it does something badly... it's bad enough to
drive me mad.
12:11 < hachi> I mostly treat it like a templating language now. I wouldn't try
to write an IRC server in it
12:13 < hachi> I do reserve the right to change my personal opinion of this
later though.

In case you are paranoid about people uploading 2 gig kitty-porn to DOS your server, like zamolxes, and you are running lighttpd like any sensible person (read 'me'), here's the option to restrict the max size of post requests:

server.max-request-size 104857600

would restrict it to 100 megabytes. If you need a smaller size, just ask google :)
