I agree. I don't use it... just the standalone client on Linux and KeePass2Android on Android.

I personally use a KeePass 2.x database. I use it across my computers and Android phone.

For convenience, I use BitTorrent Sync to keep the file updated across devices. I have it set to only sync on the local network(s), instead of over the internet. So, all if I add or change a password at home, it will sync to my phone and laptop via the local network. When I go to my office, when my phone connects to the local wifi it will sync the file to my work computer.

I use a password and keyfile. I copied the key file over to my devices manually, and is not within the Sync share.

This is the best security:convenience ratio I could come up with.

The first child was not an accident.

I guess I never clarified that, but I also never said it was.

Not that it's really any of your business, my wife was using the birth control pill, and it failed. It happens.

With that said, I'm glad we had our second child so close to the first. They are best friends, partners in crime. They get along very well, and will hopefully continue to be close going into the future.

I was born in '88, currently 26 years of age.

Started my own business while still in highschool. Moved out on my own the summer before Grade 12. Graduated on time in 2006.

After highschool I got a job at a small-time advertising agency doing mostly graphic design and minor IT stuff. I had a feeling business wasn't going so well for the owners, and after 6 months or so, I left and focussed on growing my own business. The ad agency failed shortly after.

A while later my girlfriend (now wife) became pregnant. I jumped on job opportunity that brought in around $1200/week. My first child was born in Nov. 2009. I stuck to the job because it paid well. But I was working 12 hour days, my own business lacked my attention, and my wife became pregnant again.

I picked up a few decent sized projects under my business to bring in additional money to put away for the new baby.

The first week of January/2011 I arrived at work after a Christmas/New Years holiday. We were all brought in for a meeting and told the Government had frozen their accounts as they weren't remitting sales tax. We were all let go. My second child was born two weeks later.

I decided to try to put my attention to my business, but I wasn't able to pick business up quickly enough to keep up with the income I had been making. I worked a couple different part time jobs, from Fire Protection Inspector to Locksmith helper.

In 2013 I decided it was time to spruce up the business. I changed the business name and incorporated in 2013. I picked up a couple of good recurring paying projects from local businesses. I quit my job (the locksmith at the time) in April 2014. My wife picked up a part time (evening) job as to help supplement income on our slower months.

Since then we've continued to grow the business. I've already told my wife she can quit her job, but she's continuing because she enjoys the work and getting out of the house.

We're now looking to hire some employee's as things have been growing rather rapidly in the past year.

I did this without wasting $40,000-$70,000 on a bullshit piece of paper. I'm not saying it was easy, but kids these days need to understand that its not a requirement.

My younger brother, in contrast, went to University for technical theatre (lighting, sound, stage design, etc.). He's working as a delivery driver for pizza hut, while sitting on a mountain of debt.

I think the obvious solution is to force farms in the desert areas to utilize the desalination plants year round, no matter the amount of precipitation throughout California.

If they are already piping water in from other parta of the state (and surrounding states, by the sounds of it), it really wouldn't make much of a difference for them.

This solves many of the issues. Am I overlooking some reason as to why this couldn't work, or at leaste help in the drought cycles?

I live in Central Saskatchewan, Canada so please excuse my ignorance. Our biggest water issue is when Algae grows too rapidly and causes issues for our filtration plants.

As someone who owns a web hosting business, and recently migrated all of their servers from MySQL to MariaDB. It was the easiest transition we've ever performed. On our cPanel boxes it was done in just a couple of clicks.

MariaDB really is a drop in replacement for MySQL. They have done an awesome job ensuring its a dead simple upgrade.

We are currently looking into upgrading our DNS network. We are toying with MariaDB Galera, and PowerDNS. Our initial testing has been very positive.

Here in Saskatchewan, Canada, we measure distance in time.

For example:
Person 1: "How far is Calgary from Regina?"
Person 2: "Oh about 7 hours."

I'm not sure why we do this, but this is the honest truth. My wife used to work at a service station, and had people ask how far X was. They would look at her like she was an alien if they weren't from around here.

I prefer tabs.

I don't understand the debate here. Use what you like. If you're editing someone else's code, then convert it to your preference or suck it up.

The editor I use will detect tabs or spaces in the file, and automatically convert it to the preference I set it to in the settings.

Why is this so hard? Why don't all editors do this?

Anyone else think something along the lines of a hashtag being used to remote exploit SeaWorlds network by using Shebang lines in twitter?

I dunno. Too much internets today.

Disclaimer: I genuinely like PHP.

Facebook was originally written in Facebook, yes. However, you are missing the important fact Facebook took it upon themselves to fix a bunch of PHP's mistakes with HipHop PHP, later named HHVM.

I've actually played with HHVM a bit. It maintains mostly backwards compatability with PHP code, but adds optional static typing and a few other goodies.

As far as I'm concerned a locked up, drm-encumbered bootloader is dead on arrival.

I'll give it a shot.

Well there ya go.

A previous employer of mine got on the Internet through "the big E".

I think that is a fair assessment.

Personally I have a budget ADATA SX900 128GB SSD in my primary workstation as the primary disk. To store all of my family's media, backup files, etc. I have 3x2TB HDDs:
- one for for media files, also exported as an NFS share across the subnet; music, movies, ebooks, etc)
- one for backups; daily rsync of /home, Bittorrent Sync shares/folders (laptop, my phone, wifes phone), misc non-media files too big for primary SSD
- one to backup aforementioned backup drive; cronjob set to run every day at 5am, spins drive up from sleep, mounts filesystem, rsync's data, unmounts filesystem, spins drive down to sleep

Obviously i dont backup the media files, i can always re-rip or download them if needed. I also keep my really important files backed up (encrypted) on a server I have in a datacenter somewhere.
