iTunes is fairly jacked if you want to use it in any way besides "syncing your iphone". Try using it to point to your remote library on a shared file system. Immediately it tries to copy that whole file system into your local computer ..

Luke got a good amount of adoption early on. Chef actually only started as a response to Puppet about two years ago when Opscode's original company, HJK Solutions decided they didn't want to have to pay for Puppet support. The main advantag

And remember to bring a small screwdriver, since Apple no longer feels that a battery should be changeable without tools.

This is also a fairly common way to track people down. I used something similar, with an HTML email, to find an SEO shuyster who had defrauded a friend. It helped prove he was in the country (despite his claims). It gave us a good reason to

Another "Let's all bow down and worship at the cult of Apple" post. Apple's return policies are somewhat abysmal, but that's OK, because in the eyes of many, Apple can do no wrong because "At least they're not Microsoft". The iPhone is the

Figure out what state has the best unemployment rates. Get a fluffy programming job at a large company in that state for about 6 months so that you can max out your benefits. Then get laid off and start collecting. Rhode Island looks like i

I met the FireHost guys at the last couple of HostingCon's, they seemed like a decent enough team. I expect to see a lot of rounds of funding being pumped into already established hosting companies, especially in the dedicated server arena.

Group #1: Social Media Scene people. You'd meet them at any networking event in San Francisco, like tonight's SF Beta Group #2: These are your friends who work at Facebook or Google. Group #3 ???

This is beyond pathetic. It's clearly time for Penelope Spheeris to film "The Decline Of Western Civilization IV: Gaming Nerds".

I've always found that experts-exchange was really scammy. For a while they weren't so bad when you could view their otherwise login-protected data via google's cached content, but eventually they figured out a way around that. This always

This is sort of like people who go to burning man, then go around talking about how the first year they went was the last good year.

Mostly I listen to a lot of reggae, ska, and punk .. Operation Ivy being a favorite that seems to help motivate me. As easily distractible as I am, a great set of noise-canceling headphones is a must. They help me control my adhd and block

As someone who has spent more than half of his life as a sysadmin, I'd suggest only going into it if you're a masochist. It's really a lousy lifestyle. The pay is decent, but even in the best of environments, you're viewed as a cost center,

Back in those days I was running infrastructure for a failed small business leasing market place startup called elease. Our cage was right behind one of Google's. I think it was Globalcenter's Sunnyvale datacenter. Google's cage (the one wi

It will be fun to read this bill right before it goes through it's final vote, to see how many ridiculous additions have been tacked onto it..

Here's an old (and silly) set from a wake we threw at our warehouse in 2003 or 2004 for a guitar player that had died that morning. http://www.flickr.com/photos/halliganfamily/sets/72157603829... if I dig around I can probably find more,

Using 2.5x as much floor space as a standard cabinet, I have to question the scalability of a solution like this.

And if you needed to scale? If you needed more servers, bandwidth, or staff? Then what?

Do it! I've lived in 3 warehouses now, and am looking for a new space this summer when my apartment lease runs out. The key to warehouse living is to find an unassuming, out of the way warehouse (so as not to attract attention from the auth

"highly paid" is relative. $10k/month in San Francisco is an average programmer's salary .. Once you deal with the realities of a business (unemployment insurance, health insurance, payroll taxes, franchise taxes, income taxes, cell phones,
