I like the B2 CLI client, having tried various freeware backup utilities the local database always becomes unweildy due to number of files and changes being tracked. B2 somehow seems performant and needs no local db, set the retention setti

I've been playing a bit of Open Transport Tycoon recently, the trains are by far my favourite aspect and probably the most detailed in the game too. Getting all the track layouts and signalling to be efficient is a challenge under ever

When I worked for a drug company everything had to be documented and proceduralised. Because if you ask the FDA if you can sell your pills to the public they will ask how you know they're safe. And if you keep asking enough why's

When I first started hosting servers/services for customers I was using EC2 and Rackspace, then I discovered Linode and was happy it was so much cheaper with apparently no downside. After the first couple of interactions with support I
