We deployed our new Linux/Exim/Spamassassin mail server on Friday (always a good idea to deploy the day before a long weekend when no admins are around). The load has been hovering around 1.3 on the 15-minute average.
The machine is responsive, and mails...

This is still acceptable because we don't have any delays in mail.
Our about 5 with spikes above 15.
Yes, that's pretty acceptable, and generally something to be expected with a mail filter.

Hello everyone, Can someone tell me how to add a padding to the data to make it acceptable for AES256 encryption algorithm in pycrypto library (Python).

How the padding is....
The documentation states that the block size for AES is always 16 bytes, so you need to pad the data to a multiple of 16 bytes .
Looking at the documentation , it seems that it's up to you, the library user, to pad the data yourself .

IT is full of heroics; many of us carry a paging device, like Batman waiting in his cave for the Bat Signal. What's a fair compensation for on-call schedules? Is it acceptable to handle emergency requests on weekends or vacations?

Answer Snippets (Read the full thread at serverfault):
If you weren't hired to be on-call and your employer wants to make you on-call are trying to find good solid information on what is "standard" and "acceptable" for on-call.
Then it's acceptable.

Hello,
I am using below statement to return the directory name of the running script:
print dirname(__FILE__);
it outputs something like this with back-slashes:
www\EZPHP\core\ezphp.php
Question:

This is because dirname() doesn't necessarily ....
Windows accepts forward slashes, and they are the default on *nix systems
print str_replace('\\','/',dirname(__FILE__));
In reality, it doesn't matter...
I would normalize that to forward slashes.

Is it acceptable to use ThreadPool in a library?
because that obviously might cause some unpleasant problems if the user of your library is using ThreadPool as well (due to ThreadPool being a static class of course)..
what's the convention?

You should also make it very clear which exposed parts... .
As long as it's well documented, and you provide methods to allow the user of the library to control the threadpool, such as min/max threads and maybe the option to not use a threadpool at all .

Is it acceptable for an API to have bad behaviors (like segfault, bus error, memory leak) if the condition that would cause the bad behaviors is documented? Or should it always fail "gracefully" in all known conditions?
Answer Snippets (Read the full thread at stackoverflow):
Hopefully....
Not at all , it shouldnt crash , when it failed , it should return a value which indicate it
No, its not
I would personally prefer a graceful fail over a crash any day, especially if the cause of the crash scenario is known and documented .

Given a short sprint, is it ever acceptable to forgo TDD to "get things done" within the sprint.
For example a given piece of work might need say 1/3 of the sprint to design the object model around an existing implementation. Under this scenario you might...

While it may be acceptable some it can be a recipe for disaster, IME.
