A site that I inherited the maintenance of uses Ubuntu/Apache/Passenger and it's experiencing issues with "Heavy Load", which supposedly the latest version of Passenger fixed, but doesn't.
Since I have no idea about Apache/Passenger, and really don't want to learn, I need to contract out to some shop for assistance.
Anyone have any recommendations? I realize I'm asking here on CP, but you guys are my first line of defense whenever I am in need of help!
And no, I'm not looking for "did you try this in Passenger's config" advice, unless you know exactly what the issue is. There's budget to hire a high priced (and hopefully expert) person/group.

It was inherited. The code is horrific, which, while easy to do in any language, is particularly easy to do in duck type languages (should be called "duct-type", as in, McGyver.)
I was hoping that if I just bewailed loud enough about the project that the client would throw me $100,000 to rewrite it. But no luck so far.

So the client will spend 20k to apply more duck type and do it again... and again... and eventually spend the original amount and still have to rewrite the blasted thing.

A new Google project[^] for determining the benefits and/or feasibility of using solar power at your residence/building.
This Wired article[^] goes into some details about what/how/why.
It looks like a cool idea. It's only live for the San Francisco and Boston areas right now, so if you don't live in one of those places, you are SOL for the time being. I put in some random San Fran addresses just to see how it works, and it seems pretty slick.

Two nagging thoughts:
What exactly it the author of code saying?
...this code is based on original work of.... it is free software and protected under Copyright, and if used for commercial purposes you need license.
So if I inherit from HIS (? original work of ...) class for no commercial gain I should be OK, right?

That sounds about right - but most licences include a "you must include this notice..." as well.
Be aware that some licences do mean that anything using the code must also be open source. So if you don;t want to give up your IP in the rest of it, read very carefully!

How do I send a private message to someone on CP?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

Find a message they posted with an "Email" link.
That sends an email to the registered email address, but it can be turned off in your profile.
Do note that it doesn't give you their email, but it does give them yours.
Alternatively, mention them in a conversation via the "@" followed by their login name (see the profile page) and they will get told of your interest, and given your email anyway.

No, they have real coffee, and it is actually quite good. I have been going there for over 10 years now.
Edit: I don't drink the foo-foo drinks. Coffee black, nothing else - hot or cold.

That's not coffee!!!
