The Titanic hit an iceberg which caused flooding in its front compartments and caused the bow to sink while the stern rose up. As the ship continued sinking, its funnels fell off one by one until the stress caused it to split in two. The bow sank completely, pulling the stern vertical before it detached and sank as well. The bow landed on the ocean floor over 2 miles away from the stern.

Scaling Rails: a system-wide approach to performance optimizationGonçalo Silva
The document discusses improving the performance and scalability of Ruby on Rails applications through a system-wide approach. It outlines goals of creating guidelines, configurations, and patches to optimize all components involved from the operating system to web servers to databases. The methodology involves benchmarking each component, tweaking configurations, testing performance, and developing improvements. The work schedule then details the timeline for researching and improving specific aspects from the OS to Ruby interpreters to Rails frameworks. The overall aim is a comprehensive performance-oriented approach centered around Ruby on Rails.
Greatest Moments in Internet History: The Internet and Netscape IPOmaisa10292
On October 29, 1969, Leonard Kleinrock and his team at UCLA successfully connected a computer at UCLA to a computer at SRI, sending the first message over what would become the Internet. This event marked the beginning of wide-scale digital communication. In 1995, Netscape had a hugely successful IPO that valued the company around $2.9 billion and kickstarted the dot-com boom, inspiring many other tech companies to go public. Both the initial ARPANET connection and the Netscape IPO were pivotal moments that advanced connectivity and the commercialization of the Internet.
Nathan Engels discusses various ways bloggers can make money from their blogs, including both passive and active strategies. For passive income, he recommends setting up Google Adsense ads which can be placed with minimal ongoing effort. He also discusses other ad networks that may pay less than Adsense but are options to explore. For active income, he covers affiliates and ensuring they fit the blog topic, as well as sponsored posts, reviews, and giveaways, noting bloggers should generally avoid free work and consider their audience size when setting rates. He emphasizes that blogging is difficult and bloggers should focus on quality content over money-making.
This document summarizes arguments for and against gay parenting. It notes that as many as 13 million children currently live with a gay or lesbian parent. Research suggests that children of gay parents differ only minimally from those of heterosexual parents and may be more tolerant. However, some argue that children are better off with married, heterosexual parents and risk exposure to a "homosexual lifestyle." The document acknowledges methodological flaws in some studies and calls for more longitudinal research on diverse family arrangements and the support networks around them.
The document outlines the organization of military forces and leadership in the European Theater of World War II from 1942 to 1945. It lists army groups, armies, and commanders that were part of the Eastern, Western, and Center Task Forces that conducted operations across Europe during this period, including Army Group 15 under the command of General Alexander, Army Group 21 led by General Montgomery, and Army Group 12 headed by General Bradley.
Message queues allow producers to add work items to a queue that are then processed by consumers asynchronously. In Drupal, message queues can be used to process tasks outside the page request cycle via cron. They provide a pluggable interface, with backends available on Drupal.org like AWS SQS, Redis, and OpenStack Marconi. Code examples demonstrate creating a queue, adding items, and processing items in a cron job. The document emphasizes logging and monitoring queues for debugging and preventing backlogs.
