Yeah, no you are not safe. They can mark your domain as premium after you got it and they realise it’s valuable because you made it valuable.

Namecheap does it, happened to one of my domains with them and now I can’t move it. Amazon and Cloudflare does not as far as I know.

by chillfox 4y ago
Bet you can’t move premium domains there.

by chillfox 4y ago
I would rather pay a once off high price to acquire a domain than randomly have a domain I have owned for some time get marked as premium and now the price is high every year and I can’t move it around anymore either.

I hate the practice, it’s scummy behaviour. One of my domains got hit by it and now I can’t even move it because it’s market as premium.

Of course it is, automation is very nice, I use it for the handful of machines I have my personal stuff on. I am just saying that from my days as a sysadmin it was usually a years long uphill battle to get approval for automating even minor

Because we decided for some reason that CI builds (the build config) should not be able to be run locally for testing.

I have only encountered one problem that was best solved with a graph style query and I did that in sqlite. So what would likely be nice is a better query language that can compile to sql.

Yep, but in my experience you have to manage about 2000+ machines before management will allow you to spend time on setting up deployment automation. So around the time you are setting multiple new machines a week.

Sure, but most places are not setup to using DHCP on servers or automated installs. So you will be typing in IP addresses through some kind of console to configure the machine in the first place and you will be typing in that IP address in

Any sysadmin for a medium sized company with their own servers are likely to end up having to type in IP address or get them off shitty management consoles that don't support copy paste in any way.

There's a huge difference in the effort required of maintainers (both actual work and cognitive) from just upping the integer size vs what IPv6 is.

Sure, but I don’t use photoshop or Lightroom for images I didn’t create.

I don't need security fixes for Lightroom or Photoshop... Like my camera is not going to start hiding viruses in photos all of a sudden.

It was the one app I used Mac for, with it gone there was no reason to stick with Mac.

Fair enough, I build json rest apis in Crystal, then someone else does the js/css front end.

With static typing and analysis in the editor there’s no reason to run the code for every second line you write. I usually only need to run it a few times towards the end of writing a feature to see if the compiler or specs catches any erro

There are lots of alternatives. There was a large thread on the forum discussing it and there is basically no consensus for a preferred term.

So your saying that they have shitty QA which we just happen to benefit from this time?

As someone who usually keep the mouse away from what I am looking at (I find it distracting) It's super annoying for random shit that I am not looking at to be activating.

Actually, no, China has over the last year brilliantly demonstrated that they can’t just get sufficient coal from other sources. They started a trade war with Australia and lost due to not being able to get adequate coal from elsewhere.

The competition is cron and a folder of scrips which provides a productive result from day one. I am not in an ops role at the moment, but in the past nothing has been able to beat cron. And the main reason is the time required to get autom

So part of the problem from a sysadmin/developer perspective here is that these automation solutions are too difficult/time consuming to setup on the side and prove their value to management. They basically can’t start as a one or

by chillfox 4y ago
Never have been able to get management buy in for automation. I even had one manager tell me that there was value in having someone do it manually instead of automatic, I suspect part of their pay or career progression was based on the size

Every time I need to automate something and I look at these solutions it becomes clear that I can put together a Ruby script to handle it much faster than getting one of these automation solutions up and running.

I would say Caddy is aimed at small to medium companies. You have a web app/site, no dedicated systems admin and you need a reverse proxy that does the right thing out of the box without you having to learn what the right thing is or h
