My guess is the mining companies do this more for liability then shared cost. I wonder what the churn is in this group of companies?

My dept is a bunch of Linux Admins, of varying skill level; but all at least mid-grade or higher. There are no junior admins. They are paying top wages so we can do paperwork, create accounts, and manage file permissions. Then they can&#x27

People who suck at their job can learn, and become better. Not all, but everyone was bad at something before they leveled up. Highly commoditized positions are also a great way to learn about less commoditized work. How many old rich people

It sucks living in an upstairs apartment with kids. Bad enough getting them up to the apartment with whatever you're carrying, worse having bad neighbors below. Have you tried introducing yourself, or maybe leaving an apology/expl

Yes, current infrastructure is not designed for automated maintenance, I'm dealing with that in the software world. It will take more time to retrofit the physical world, but it will happen. If things are remote, they get documented be

local logs also make troubleshooting much easier, especially if you have to bring a system up offline for forensic analysis.

I came from the Windows world to Linux. Especially when it comes to Enterprise, my experience is that Windows Admins are more likely to know network basics then Linux admins. However, Linux admins who know networking usually have a deeper u

I still run into Windows Admins who don't understand UNC paths vs mapped drives.

Not if you stick with Suse (OpenSUSE) or RedHat (centOS).

Try OpenSUSE, it has a more recent kernel then RH, it's still rock solid, and it has a great community. Aside from breaking stuff all the time, Ubuntu seems to have wide swings in the quality of documentation.

The number of servers that are used for basic filesharing and Domain authentication are dwarfed by the number of servers used for applications and databases. Linux has can manage a Windows Domain, but it doesn't support all the GPO&#x2

I have an original surface pro I inherited, it works fine except for the garbage keyboard/cover. Well, it did work fine until some recent firmware update made it so the wifi crashes any router it connects to... It's really a beaut

It's possible that the owner is being exploited too, but the franchise corporation, or financial interests. That doesn't make it ok for them to exploit others.

This part of your your comment hits on the one thing I try to teach younger people, "It's just exploitation, and I work my current job with fear of having to go back to that." The difference between a job and a career is port

This is so true. I've been in plenty of small business that are trying to do the best and their constraints are usually based on the ability of early hires. Big companies have inertia to deal with for every change and once you get burn

This traditional method is also what contributes to the "glass ceiling" and the "old boys network". As a hispanic with a non-hispanic name, I've certainly noticed some people react poorly me. While outright racism i

Have you looked at Time4vps, I have been using one of their 1TB storage servers, and I pay quarterly what netcup seems to charge monthly. It's openvz instead of kvm, but I use it to backup with rsync and borg. I also run a calibre libr

Check out Time4vps, they have some excellent prices on storage servers and their egress is generous.

That's American healthcare for the majority of Americans. Luckily most old people don't worry about this because of Medicare.

I guarantee the average US worker that makes 150k (not an avg salary) pays more then 2k in SSI taxes that cover Medicaid. They pay all over again for private healthcare, probably in the 6k range if they don't have kids.
