staff blogs

distributed.net staff keep (relatively) up-to-date logs of their activities in .plan files. These were traditionally available via finger, but we've put them on the web for easier consumption.

After an amazing 761 days of trouble-free uptime it looks like the server
oldnodezero.distributed.net spontaneously rebooted. This machine was the first
dedicated distributed.net server and hosted our website, dns, mail, and a
variety of other critical services for much of the past five years.

Thanks to all the cows who have contributed to this machine’s stability over
the years and especially to visi.com for such a remarkably stable data center
and colo. I think the last reboot was to physically relocate the machine to
their new (at the time) data center.
