You could do this with the `timeout` command. `timeout -s SIGINT 1h restic...` That would let restic run for one hour, and then once the hour elapses send a SIGINT which will stop …

They are. Small Business Cards are always are. It's not tied to my credit report, but my report was pulled as part of the process.

American Express gives out credit cards like candy. We make 600/month and Amex have us 40k in credit. It’s aslo cheaper than their offering. It looks like an interesting product, b…

He didn't talk much about this, but I find it very hard to believe that they were able to make their own deposit application and get it certified for use (unless the UK has vastly …

Linode offers a shared private network per datacenter.

Yeah. Nobody is perfect, but Linode's technical features and support makes up for it in my book.

Feel free to show some love: https://www.linode.com/?r=a1baa5d9cdf4db262bb748108359572ffe...

Linode, except for DDoSs, has been incredibly solid.

"skills and efforts required to fulfill the ops responsibilities do not justify the need for such specialization." You just pay someone else to do it; get over yourself.

They've always had the functionality to run software like Transmission inside a Jail. I guess they just moved that functionality to docker to be more "hip".

I'm not saying to use AD for a SaaS product, I'm saying the advice on having an obscure domain is a bad one. The SaaS product is saas.com, the company domain is company.com, and th…

ElasticByte looks kinda cool. I'm curious to the market for it, as you seem to fit between "We can use heroku" and "We can hire two people."

"A third domain is needed for internal use and back office. This domain would probably be registered anonymously, so it would be a little more difficult to find." Um, security thro…

Nothing you describe hasn't already been done by others.

The Silicon Valley double standard, but I would like a bit more concrete evidence before I get my pitchfork out.

DigitalOcean seems to be going after Linode. Will be interesting to see how Linode responds.

While I like this idea, the burden is shifted to the students couldn't get a scholarship; Students who are probably working to pay for school or have taken out loans that will take…

A good article pointing out that it is not enough to complain or be a keyboard warrior, but you have to take tangible action in order to get effective results. A bit firm, but need…

Cheaper to buy standardized cells at scale, due to production capacity?

You forgot an /s when you said the pay gap. If you didn't, then they pay gap you refer to is a statistical figure that is observed when you compare every worker across every profes…

If anyone is looking to jump ship, DreamWidth is a fork of LiveJournal.

That's my assumption as well. They have done massive amounts of custom work in CryEngine, so I'm guessing they are just using some features of Lumberyard.

Don't get me wrong, I've encountered issues before but CentOS 7.2 and Fedora 24/25 have been good to me.

Everytime I read posts like this, I think I must be the lucky one. Fedora 25 on my laptop and desktop, and I've had no issues what so ever. The author's package manager complaints …
