What do you like to do?

Boot the unreachable system from a Bootable USB Linux distro and see if it can be pinged.

I am younger than most people here and I have to Google half the cultural acronyms.

All of the USA for the last 99 years.

Every project I've been on or ran for the last 10 years has used a CI server. There is way more automation that is necessary if you want to do successful continuous delivery of 10s or 100s of microservices. Take a look through here for an idea of what is required: https://netflix.github.io/

I don't know if I've ever RMAed anything. Isn't it almost always a waste of time?

That was mostly a joke. I have read all of your rants though. I have avoided getting a Mac for over 4 years at work. I've been running Linux on my work machine for at least 3 years. The Mac is actually probably less of an issue to me than I always imagined. The machine I have is a 13" MacBook...

I'd rather not spend any money on apps for a laptop that I'll only have possession of for a short time. I can't really use a full keyboard because I have to use the laptop in a variety of places (client site, my company's office, airplanes, home). I installed iTerm2 immediately after receiving...

Your ideas have probably permeated my conscience so that all my opinions were made up before ever using the machine.

I started at a new client in Portland today and they gave me a 13" MacBook Pro. This is the first time I've actually used a Mac for a significant amount of time. I'm coming from using Linux machines exclusively for 5+ years, so it's a bit of a departure for me. I'm struggling most with keyboard...

I'd say a lot of the benefits are operational. Many of the organizations I've worked with have an extremely hard time deploying software to production. Without any kind of automation in place taking a single deployable unit of code and multiplying it by the number of microservices necessary is...

I wrote this blog post at work, I doubt anyone other than maybe Doug or Chewy is interested in the content, but I was happy with how it turned out.

Why not just pick an OS an go for it? If you need another OS, just virtualize an existing installation or create a new VM. It seems to me that you're doing things the hard way.

Such as Birdman, which won best picture last year. I barely made it through that movie.

Sounds similar to employment contracts that forbid you being able to take legal action against your employer. Just because something is in a contract doesn't mean it's constitutional and any court will uphold it.

He's probably 38.

Settings->System Updates->Check for new system update Here's how to clear the cache: http://lifehacker.com/5946585/force-an-android-device-to-check-for-a-system-update

Have you gone in and manually checked? I've also had to clear a cache from one of the system libraries before to get an update to show up.

What carrier are you on, Doug?

I'll probably get the LG G5 when my contract expires in July. My LG G3 just got the Android 6.0 update last week. I don't think Samsung ever supported their devices that long.

This is the link I'm referring to. It's labeled "New Posts".

Security is the biggest reason. All software is vulnerable, it's only a matter of time before this site is hacked because of an unfixed exploit.

Does it have a usable "What's New" link?

I'm not sure. I've had numerous issues with Windows 7 before 8 or 10 were ever released.

The fact that Windows Update is this stupid after being around for over 20 years baffles me.

The older model is quite a bit cheaper. I have two of them. Only 2.4GHz though. http://www.amazon.com/Ubiquiti-UniFi-Access-UAP-LR-US-Version/dp/B005H4CDF4

God damn it.

Is that you in the lower right flying the drone?

What is it doing?

Can you get an extension that sets your User-agent to something Youtube recognizes?

Can we see any actual picture of it on your house?

Couldn't you get this level of uptime by migrating to Azure or AWS or both?

Tired of hearing about the stupid blizzard. This article made me feel better: https://www.dnainfo.com/chicago/20160122/downtown/dear-east-coast-heres-how-survive-snow-storm-love-chicago

Xubuntu and Ubuntu are almost exactly the same, just different packages come installed by default.

How do you like Shangahi?

I'm sure he got some enjoyment out of his hobbies.

This is pretty close to the regex you need: Try it out here: http://regexr.com/

On Windows, something like this should work: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5574648/use-regex-powershell-to-rename-files You'll need the right regex of course.

I listen to a lot of stuff from the 70s, 80s, and 90s and I'm roughly the same age as you.

Why wouldn't they sell those?

What country are you in?

I read through that whole thread, pretty funny.

Shanghai, then I guess. What are you doing there?

Doug's IDE suggestion is good. PHP has a tendency to eat errors rather than show something useful. Too bad there isn't a statically typed language that will run on a cheap ISP.

The problem is PHP, not you.

Where are you? Does Michigan have a different release schedule?

Works for me now.

It said I have to request access.

I haven't noticed anything, but this doesn't sound good: http://tech.slashdot.org/story/16/01/01/2321211/linode-under-ddos-since-christmas
