If you're interested in talking tech, I'm based in Chicago and am always up for coffee/drinks. I worked for prop shops for a few years on hw/sw design. I'm out of the industry now, but I have a feeling I'll be back eventually.

You will need the FDK to do any FPGA-related development. I'm guessing their policy is that the FDK is required, but if you ask support they might help you out and send just the image+utility without requiring the FDK license.

I think this is a 10G only SFP+ card - the 1G module you have probably isn't supported. This is a common restriction on low latency PHYs. For AoE cards in particular, you should also make sure that the FPGA is running the stock pass-through image. If it's not, you might end up with weird...

That's indicating a physical disk failure or r/w error for virtual drive 1. Fire up the MegaRAID utility to get more info on which disk it is. If the volume has redundancy (e.g. it's not RAID level 0), you'll need to replace the bad disk and rebuild the volume. Depending on the controller...

I've heard good things about Lightspeed too, but haven't used them myself. Advantage is ok, but I wouldn't use them for anything very latency sensitive. For FIX, I recently ditched QuickFIX and moved to Fix8 (C++) for my own trading. You might want to check it out for any new projects. It's...

Although hot-failover (no downtime) migrations are possible if VPS hardware fails, that's not a common feature for most providers. More likely they'll restart your instance on new hardware and you'll have some amount of downtime (minutes, but your apps will need to restart). If failover is...

I've got a pair of LG displays that are the same res. I use a regular 30" as primary, since I prefer more vertical space, but they're great as side displays (mounted vertically). If you leave it horizontal, it's about as high as a 23" monitor. I'm so used to larger displays that that just...
