If you have a smartwatch, does it support contactless payment? I have a Fitbit that does, technically it implements Apple Pay even though Fitbit is owned by Google now. I was able to set it up just fine through the Fitbit app on GrapheneOS (though I don’t think I’ve actually tested it yet).
I don’t know anything about gas turbines, but I know enough about thermal imaging to know if they weren’t running they’d be the same temperature as everything else in the area.
The whole reason I took this job is the stake in the company
Man I was suppressing the red flags up until now; this is the straw that breaks the camel’s back. You are going to get shafted at this job. It might be because someone is embezzling, they’re committing fraud in their manufacturing processes, or one of the owners is going to cut and run and leave the rest of you holding the bag. Maybe one day you’ll just show up and the doors are all locked.
You need to do absolutely everything by the book, document, document, document, CYA, and in a way that when shit goes south you’ll still have that documentation. And always have an exit plan.
There are plenty of document management solutions. What is the actual problem you’re trying to solve? Not just “it’s a mess” because I can solve that with a trash can. What are the needs of the users?
The value in those products is that it takes much less management, brings much greater reliability, and support teams if you have issues. If your dinky NAS shits the bed, the company’s data is gone, the company is kaput, you are all out of a job.
Of course there is a middle ground. I know there are plenty of open-source hosted products. They’re still subscriptions, but that monthly expense probably comes out cheaper than the time and effort building and maintaining your custom systems.
If you still really want to host it yourself, make sure you run through your disaster and recovery scenarios. You will have to have a 3-2-1 backup system. And remember because shit will go wrong, two is one, and one is none. That includes you personally, in the event you get hit by a bus lottery.
I would recommend an actual Dell tower server with idrac for remote management, and with prosupport for when something blows up (sometimes literally, I had one PSU go bang on a server under my desk at one point). Fill it with enough disks for redundancy and data growth for the next few years, but leaving room for expansion. Put your favorite hypervisor on it, set up some vms or containers to run those services, test backups, and document everything so that a semi-trained monkey can follow it.
But don’t host your own email. Getting each individual email server to not consider you spam is a Sisyphean task.
For business? What’s the value to the business over services like Office 365?
Personally, unless there’s a very good reason for it, I strongly recommend against this. I used to work for a company that did business IT, and there were far too many times we got called in to take over for a guy that did it himself and got in over his head, left the company, or just plain died, and it ended up costing the company much more in the long run.
Lol like that would help any. Israel is quite happy to commit genocide in the West Bank too.
It orders the permit-granting agencies to expedite the permits, so probably.
Not that legal or illegal matters to the government any more.
Glass, yes. Whisky, not any more.
No, in gulag you work. CECOT is a death camp.
Protests are just a statement. That’s the first step. If the statement is ignored, next comes action. A protest is a warning.
I build and set up services I want for myself and at the level I’m willing to put up with. For the most part I can be handed something already implemented and work within that space to keep it going and adjust it to what I want it to do or fit my set up. I can usually find my way through log files and error codes to figure out what the problem is and duckduckgo my way to a fix.
Congrats, you’re more qualified than most of the people I’ve worked with.
Yeah grammatically it’s incorrect. Paths are paved, they themselves do not pave.
It comes from not using huge amounts of water to grow water-intensive crops in the California desert.
This is them going into IPO mode.
Matrix is a reasonable replacement.
It’s not even incompetence. It’s criminal negligence.
He did not simply disappear. He was moved somewhere by a person.
I’m not aware of any existing products, but this sounds like you could knock it out in a day writing it yourself.
I suspect a good portion would rather roll the dice than go back their home countries. I met a film student from Macedonia not too long ago. She has literally zero opportunity back home. If anything, it’s negative opportunity due to risk of crime and needing to depend on someone else.
