Kodi V19 is going to give dyslexics readers like me shivers :P


Is the program available for people that are not US residents? Or not currently living in the US? thanks.


Yes! No obligation to be living in the US -- you can do from anywhere as long as you will have access to resources you may need to perform your work.


Sweet!


My 2 cents : Google Tasks blows this out of the water.

quietly work on a startup while still going to your job, and when that provides enough money quit your job and grow it stronger


This might be hard, especially since he doesn't have time to spend with his own kids :(


When I was a kid, I wanted to spend more time with my dad, but he was always at work, and he was so tired in the evenings that it was difficult to engage with him.

The solution happened naturally as I grew up a bit. I would hop on my bike and go down and see him at his machine shop after school or in the middle of the day in the summer. Yes, he was busy, it's not like we were playing catch in the office, but the opportunity was there for me to tag-along and watch what he did.

I was extremely proud of him. He was the boss at his own company. I don't know what it would be like to have a dad that worked for other people, but I doubt I would have been as proud.

My mom started her own retail business too. I often would go and spend time with her during the day while she worked. There were plenty of slow times to have a chat about this or that.

In my own life, I don't yet have the privilege of working for myself, but I want to get to this point both for myself and for my kids, so not only will they have a guaranteed summer job :), but also so they can understand the value of independence.


Good advice.


so how did they know they succeeded , the fly had a disgusted face after?


what is funny about the status page is that it isn't a day that they don't run into an issue ..


Given the number of domains they host (nearly a million: http://www.webhosting.info/webhosts/reports/total_domains/DR...), I'm shocked they don't have more outages to report. Perhaps they do. They've got enough hardware that system failures are bound to be a daily occurrence. And I'm sure software problems stack right on top of that.


if you look at the issues too there's a lot of "this server had to have an fsck to resolve something" and "theses servers were slow so we fixed them".

99.9% uptime is still something like 8 hours downtime - this big outage was about 40 mins so they've some leeway yet.


I liked this comment on their status page

"shabooty Says: I wonder if this site is hosted at media temple?"

epic


so you need an os and a browser to run this webos ..

kinda defeats the purpose if you ask me ...


I actually quite amused by the following statement: "Imagine being able to boot up your Operating System in 3 seconds"

That is, after you booted up your real operating system.


I think they can do better! They should push it and go where no man has been and load their webos under a second .. (like most of the websites .... grin )
