Another tip, be cognizant of the difference between sustained drawing amperage, and spikes; when a server starts up, it can spike to 1.5+ amps. I've seen many circuits trip because…

There is a big difference though, and it revolves around choice. A casino owner can not claim, that a roulette player can choose to get better. At some point, the "house" gets to a…

Odd; doesn't seem to be for me or http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ what error are you getting?

I just launched https://www.lawncheer.com , I'll be honest, I am modeling everything I do after homejoy. All of Adora's articles/interviews etc, have been super beneficial and insi…

As someone that started their career installing, maintaining, selling, and writing software for PoS systems, this was immensely entertaining.

Stolen from another comment http://www.theverge.com/2014/5/8/5694720/lyft-goes-after-ube... Looks like they are selling the cars to the drivers. It's like NYC's medallion program, …

I am from St. Louis where there is currently a restraining order due to conflicts with the local taxi union. My understanding was that Lyft had the argument of "we arent a real tax…

What kind of collateral (I assume printed?); there are templates on graphicriver for this type of stuff ie: http://graphicriver.net/item/lawn-care-trifold/5357957?WT.ac...

I am not a Steven King fan really, have only seen 1 or 2 of his movies, and never read anything by him; but I randomly picked up 11/22/63: A Novel, and read through it in 2 days, i…

Interesting; for the time being, my goal is actually the opposite. My goal (at least until data starts coming in more reliably), is to provide you the user w/ repeatable, affordabl…

As a customer, do you want to take the time to dig through reviews, or would you rather the service "just work". I am in the finishing stages of developing lawncheer, which is a se…

DevOps, at least imo, is not about technology. It is about culture, and applying practices to speed up the various loops across organizational groups (marketing, sales, developers,…

The "bizarre" thing, he was referring to is holding your hands out the window. Not everyone does that typically; and one of the most important things you can do is to keep your han…

A police officer friend once told me, to put your hands out the window when you get pulled over, and leave them there, until the office tells you to stop. Then you casually say sor…

Same here, this is a great idea. An ideal setup, would be an agent, that could find me 15-20 hours/wk consistently, at my current rate (125$/hr), so that I can split time between t…

I do not understand the negative reactions. What about reframing the marketing/messaging changes the underlying tech involved? How is creating a complimentary B2B site, going to ma…

It's not even an exact ripoff. The part of the original logo is generic enough that it's probably up for debate whether this is just happenstance.

I am not an expert; and could be way off base, but I would assume, that knowingly following a corporate policy that is against the law, would be illegal, even if you aren't the one…

A known "rule", that was illegal to follow in the first place.

np, are you into mustangs, what's your favorite?

DDOS firms (prolexic etc) are really expensive, I would imagine they do it on an as-needed basis. From my experience working at a datacenter, the first line of defense are the tech…
