      Commentards at the Reg are getting as moronic as Youtube comments. There's obviously a lot of dinosoars on here with too much time on their hands who just don't get it, and trot out the same old same old thinking it's still funny years after someone else said it. And then getting lots of thumbs ups from other morons, who were going to say the same thing. I think I will look somewhere else from now on.

        "trot out the same old same old thinking"

        There's plenty more same old thinking I'm happy to trot out. I expect gravity to stop bits flying off the world, I expect broken cups not to spontaneously reassemble themselves etc.

    New name just needs "Stick" on the end

    New Relic Digital Intelligence Platform → New Relic DIPStick

    Accurate too, as DIPSticks are for measurement.

      If nothing shows on the stick, does that indicate you are in good shape or about to melt it down?

    That server monitoring sounds fine,

    but if that's what New Relic does, why do I find New Relic scripts eager to run via my web browser?
